A great tampon--but be aware NO APPLICATOR!
Like the other reviewers said, this is an excellent tampon and definitely much healthier than using the generic drugstore brands that add chemicals to your tampon to make you bleed more.
However, be aware that these tampons DO NOT come with any applicators whatsoever. It's just the actual cotton tampon wrapped in plastic. You have to use your fingers or a separate applicator to insert the product. This makes the product messy to use if you are, say, in a public bathroom and don't feel like walking out of the stall with blood on your hands. Just be aware of this before purchasing this huge set of tampons. There are natural tampons out there that come with applicators.
Great for you and the environment!
ever since I read about cotton being made from the parts of the cotton plant too high in pesticides and chemicals to be feed to cattle, I use only organic cotton for personal items. These items are easy to use, easy to conceal, discreet and effective. I shared them with several friends who didn't know they weren't conventional and never noticed a difference in performance.
Great product
Well, if you're looking at this item, then you're already interested in it's non-toxic, non-chemical properties that Amazon describes. Other things to note: since it's all natural and organic, it's a great product if conventional items give you allergies. I personally don't mind that there's no applicator, but when there's more flow it's easier to get it because it lubricates it (sorry if you think that's gross, but it's true). One thing that it does that I don't think conventional tampons do (although I've only used conventional ones a couple times a few years ago so maybe I'm remembering wrong): the tampon expands to 2-3 times it's dry size after it soaks up a liquid.
