Regular absorbency is great for everyday ‘regular-flow’ use and Super and Overnight absorbency is perfect for heavy flow and overnight use. So, we have you covered, no matter what your flow is like, or what you’re doing.

Most comfortable

U by Kotex was my go to brand in my 20's. The colourful packaging made having periods somewhat bearable. They were often on sale and very affordable.

These pads were very different to any other pads I came across. The pads were slightly longer and had much better coverage. They were super absorbent while also been thin and comfortable.

I have moved to environmentally friendly alternatives, so I won't use these again unless for emergency purposes.

Tips: Change every 4 - 6 hours

U by Kotex Ultra Thins

I bought a box to review. These pads have stayed in place which is good. I like the packaging the box looks nicer than some other brands but look of packaging isn't really important to me as it's not like I have pads up for display in my bathroom. I would say it performs as well as some other brands, I would buy these in the future if they were on sale.

U Kotex.

Ultra thins are quite good. The packaging is what drew me to them first, it's really cool and cheery. I don't really feel them and they seem to be quite invisible. They have enough adhesive to stay in place all day. The only problem I seem to have with it is that it makes a bit of a smeary mess and I don't usually have that with my regular.

U by Kotex Ultra Thins

I’m a big U by Kotex fan, they’re my go to brand for tampons however I’m not 100% sold on these. I bought the regular absorbency pack and loved that they came individually wrapped in pocket sets of 4 or 5 so you could easily pop one in your hand bag. I loved the bright coloured wrapping, always a nice plus, and they served their purpose as a leakage protector and for light flow at the end of the week. But I actually didn’t find them that comfortable at all compared with other brands, and that’s why I’m not convinced I’ll be buying them again.

Ultra thins

This product is a good size, thickness and coverage to make one feel 'safe'. There is a certain reassurance in its stability to stay put too. However I have found thst itching becomes predominant after a day or so and therefore I feel sore and unconfy. That aside this brand does have the least effect so it is my returns to brand and my first choice. Packaging is fun and practical making it easier to feel feminine and not begrudged of nature.

Sticks well

I normally have a heavy flow but on days when i don't- this is my go-to thin pads. They stick pretty well and barely moves (even on my very active days) and does the job.

Tips: I've gotten two free pads to try from Kotex website to my door! I reccomend if you want to try them out without the price of buying a whole pack :) You're welcome~

So-so

I received a whole pack as a free sample from Kotex via their website. I didn't have any problems with absorbency but felt the rectangular shape meant I had less protection. Also it was hard to get out of the wrapper without accidentally sticking the wings to the pad! Yes thin, yes comfy, but nervous about using on a 'full-flow' day.

Tips: Be careful opening the wrapper to avoid removing the tabs from the wings. Definitely fine for lighter flows (in regular size)

Pretty good!

Super thin yet really absorbent. The best thing about these is they don't tend to bunch up which is a rarity. Always on special and overall good value. I don't tend to use these often but when I have to buy pads I will choose these. The improved design really is an improvement and this whole range is good value and an effective array of products which out-perform most other brands. Less bulk also means less wasted materials which can only be a good thing!

Good but not for me

these liners were good, but where a wee bit thick for my liking, i could feel them which made me a little uncomfortable, they aren't scented from what i can remember, but they definitely do what the are supposed to do
