My favourite brand

These are my favourite brand of tampons and the only ones I will buy. I have tried a sample of non-applicator tampons but just didn't feel as protected. I find that using the applicator positions the tampon in the right place and keeps my fingers clean. I love that they come in 3 varieties. I used to get by on regular but as I have got older I have changed to super. They are often on special, although I have no idea how the price compares to other brands, as I have no desire to change. As I have said to my husband, sanitary products are one area where I will not buy based on price. Because they are individually wrapped I can keep a couple in the glove box and my purse.

Easy applicator

Best thing since slice bread. I have never used tampons until I got introduced to it by my roommate. I have tried every tampon and this is by far the most easiest application I have used when it comes to that time of the month.

I love the fact that it is clean and that I don't have to use my fingers. The anti-slip grip is so helpful and gives you perfect guidance on position.

Easy applicator

The applicator took little to get use to compared to other brands but the tampon itself is great no leakage at all.

Not the best I've used

So I decided to switch it up and give tampax a try but right from the get go I knew they weren't wyute the fit for me the package was ok on the outside then wen u actually get the applicator out of was very thin white cardboard not nice to hold at all then after u have used the applicator well u could imagine the white thin cardboard not nice at all but overall the tampon did absorb well

Tips: Be gentle as quite low quality materials

Tried and true

I have been using Tampax for the last 20 something years and still find it as easy to use than I did way back when. I use both the regular and super and find both quite reliable. Absorption is good. Love the cardboard tubing, more environmentally friendly than some other plastic ones I have seen and is sturdy enough to do its job properly.

Tampons

I used the ones in the green packet and I won’t be using these again. Firstly I didn’t like the whole applicator side of it, and the size of the tampon itself was weirdly longer than a normal one and it even started to fall apart. They are a lot different compared to every other tampon I have used. Overall I didn’t like using these and ended up throwing away each cardboard applicator.

Good for beginner

I started using these within the first year of getting my period, I decided to try these ones as i had used plastic applicators but didn't like the fact that plastic was getting wasted as they're single use so i decided to try cardboard. The cardboard applicators were as easy as plastic to use and i never had any issues , i personally don't like the tampon in these which is my only issue. I cant explain why i don't like it i just feel like they're different to usual.

Ive only ever used the regular tampax tampons and i like them and think they're great for a beginner and the absorbency is pretty good but i no longer buy these as i prefer no applicator.

I hate the extra waste

I always end up buying these overseas as other countries seem to only want Tampons with applicators. And while there is something nice about getting your hands less 'dirty', I always feel sad about how much extra plastic is going in the bin. Also the fact that they are 2+ times the size of a regular tampon means they are much less discreet- you don't want one of these in your jean pocket.

Tampax

I personally really did not like these I found they fell apart while trying to pull out to change!!!! I felt comfy for about 15 minutes before I could feel myself leaking through I’m so happy I used a liner!!! I personally won’t use this brand again and probably wouldn’t recommend to a friend.

Tips: Make them stronger and more absorbable

Period Disaster

I’m sorry to be graphic but the quality of this product is shocking. Once used the removal experience is tedious. I would rather use a pad than ever use Tampax again. Not a product for someone with quite a heavy period.
