The bloody fine print.

Pads don’t legally have to tell you what they’re made of.

They sit directly against the vulva for hours at a time.

And yet they’re one of the only products in your bathroom without full disclosure.

That isn’t accidental. It’s legal.

Period care has a terms and conditions problem.

Your shampoo lists ingredients.

Your moisturiser lists ingredients.

Your toothpaste lists ingredients.

Pads don’t have to.

In the UK, brands are not legally required to fully disclose their ingredients. As long as certain safety standards are met, silence is allowed.

And that silence has been quietly accepted for far too long.

What is “legally enough” on packaging:

"Absorbent core"

"Soft topsheet"

"Odour control technology"

"Moisture-proof backsheet"

"Adhesives"

But this only tells you what it does. Not what it's made of.

We don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect the same transparency here as everywhere else in your bathroom.

That's the bloody fine print.

This isn’t opinion.

We’ve spent over 20 years designing, testing, and improving period care, backed by science, lived experience, and an in-house research team that refuses to stop at “good enough”.

We helped fund and contribute to independent, peer-reviewed research examining what period pads are actually made of - beyond the vague language on the pack.

Now, we’ve distilled that research into 5 things pad packaging doesn’t explain and what to look for instead.

What we tell you.

We already list every ingredient in our pads.

Every layer.

Every material.

Every claim backed up.

Not because we have to. Because we think this should be standard.

Function vs ingredients.

Most pad packaging tells you how it works. We tell you what it’s made of.

Because “absorbent core” isn’t an ingredient.

And “odour technology” isn’t disclosure.

Slide to see the difference.

Period care is one of the most intimate products you use.

Silence shouldn’t be part of the deal.
