Care
Before your period
-
Pre-wash your pad by hand or machine before using for the first time.
During your period
- Pre-rinse your pad in cold water until the water runs clear or leave it to soak overnight.
- You can machine or hand wash your pad.
- Hand wash: Hand wash with detergent in warm water
- Machine wash: Add to your next machine wash on a gentle, warm wash cycle
- Hang your pad on the line, in the sun if possible.
After your period
- Some staining is normal due to the absorbent nature of the natural cotton fibers and should not be cause for concern. For heavy or stubborn stains, try rubbing bicarb soda with a little water on the stain.
-
This can be done every couple of months or more frequently if you suffer from yeast infections. Wash your pad with a small amount of any of the following;
- white vinegar
- apple cider vinegar
- tee tree oil, or
- eucalyptus oil
- Thoroughly rinse your pad and line dry
