Tampax Tampons

love the applicator as your hands/finger doesn't get blood/period all over it when trying to insert a tampon..and no bits/parts of the tampon left behind with pulling it out to replace/dispose

The down points would be that the packaging is rather dated and boring. Also the price is more expensive than regular tampons like carefree etc (from memory) Also they are not discrete like regular tampons as the applicator make them at least twice as long as regular tampons.

On the plus side, they do what they say and I find them really absorbent. They are far more hygienic than regular tampons as the applicator does the job for you. Once you figure out what absorbancy you need, they really do give great protection and I've never had any issues using these. I use these 90% of the time and will continue to buy these in the future. Very happy with the quality, would be awesome to see some funky designs like other brands tho.

I have used these on and off since I first started getting periods. I like that they have the applicator so its more hygienic and I get a good absorbency from them. They are a little long so sometimes they aren't as discrete as I would like. They are quite good for when starting out because they can be guided for the novice, although they can take a few times to become proficient.

So...3 children later and things aren't the same down there. My flow is so heavy sometimes- quite bluntly it's like a massacre if I use normal super tampons. Leaky galore. These are great as they are not compacted down into a tiny weeny little plug but rather are longer and less condensed so they 'fill the space' better. The applicator makes it so easy to position correctly ( never had pinching thank goodness). These are the only ones I can happily count on to not spring a leak.

I use these each month and absolutely love them. So easy to use. My periods are very heavy so I use the Super at the beginning of my period and then the regular one a couple of days later. So having these different sizes is perfect.

I always use these tampons because of the leak guards,there is no worry of any leaks in your panties,also having the applicater is a bonus if you do not like your hands getting messy,I always have a couple in my handbag for when needed or to give to a friend,

it's a wee bit embarrassing to say but these are the only tampons i use and know how to use. i have tried the regular types but can't seem to get the knack of is lol. my mum got me into them when i was a teen coz i was never able to swim in the summer, and i use them ever since. I don't want to gross everyone out so I'll just stop there and say they are bloody brilliant (no pun intended)

I love the freedom I get from tampax. Not only is it readily available from most stores but it allows me to continue doing all the activities i normally would with all the freedom from worrying about leakage.

These are my preferred brand and type of tampons.

Love the applicator for ease of use and I haven't seen any other brand that offers an applicator.

I've never had any embarrassing leaks using these tampons alone (I know some people add a light winged pad because other tampon brands have let them down in the past) even when swimming.

They are more expensive than the non-applicator varieties however by buying several packs at a time but only when I see them on special I can minimise that price difference and indulge my brand preference.
