U by Kotex Tampons come in a variety of absorbencies to suit different flows. They are designed to give you maximum protection during your flow and work by expanding and adapting to your body’s shape.

U by Kotex Tampons are super comfy to wear and easy to use. Some girls find tampons harder to insert towards the very end of their period when the flow is much lighter. Inserting a tampon at this time can be uncomfortable. U by Kotex Tampons have a slim design and come with a slender tip because, let’s face it, if you’re suffering period pain and all the things that come along with your period, you want things to be as easy as possible.

Available in Mini, Regular and Super

Meh

I love the colours and the friendly and fun atmosphere the U by Kotex has but I'm not really fond of their tampons. They seem a bit "hard" compared to other brands and I find that they make me a bit more uncomfortable. So I tend to avoid these. I would use them if I had to though.

Makes the mundane monthly colourful!

Now you show me a product with bright and fun designs like this then I will buy it in a second purely because of it's appealing colours. It's like eye candy to me so I need it in my life even if it's something as mundane and normal like tampons. U by Kotex Tampons suits having U in the name because they really concentrate on giving you what you need and not just what they think is pretty. Yes it's pretty but also practical.

I buy the supers and the regulars for the duration of my period because the flow varies. The tampons themselves a smooth and silky feeling and are comfortable to wear and use. I find that at times the supers aren't enough for maximum flow so remedy that by using a super and a pad...sorted! $5.50 to me is quite reasonable so $11 all up for a month is quite affordable for any woman. I have paid more for other brands that don't perform anywhere near as well as these tampons so that's a plus. Besides these are far more eye catching than any other brand out there for feminine hygiene.

They are extremely absorbent and keep my mind at ease knowing that I am protected and that no embarrassing moments are going to take place. They are small enough to hold comfortably in your fist so noone need know and also small enough to fit in to any purse or pocket. I am a return buyer for sure!

Tips: Keep a few in your bag for emergencies

U KOTEX

I absolutely think that the colourful packaging is what sells these over any other brands. My only issue with these are that they are overly drying when not fully needed. They last along time but seem to soak up everything when you have a light period making it hard to remove. This is much more suitable for heavier periods.

Would use if had no options

Have used this in the past and they made me feel irritated, changed to an organic cotton brand and have had no problems. I would use them if they didn’t irritate me as they do what they say they do and are a good price.

Be careful!

These are very comfortable in my opinion, but after 2 hours of needing to go to the bathroom, my underwear was not impressed!

Tips: Perhaps changing it every hour would be more suitable !

Colourful

I don't use this brand anymore because I use more natural products these days. I liked the colourful wrappers and the way it twists open.

Pretty packaging

U by Kotex was my brand during my 20's. The colourful packaging made buying feminine hygiene more bearable. There were two separate packets in one package and it's so small and cute that made it handy to carry around in my hand bag.

It absorbed very well, but the recommendation time to change it was every 4 hours, but I had to change more frequently than that which was annoying. It was very affordable though and often they were on sale.

I stopped using tampons now, so I won't use these again. They came in handy when I needed it.

Tips: Change every 4 hours
