Product Review: Stayfree Ultra Thins + Giveaway

I know it's uncommon, and probably one of those taboo subjects to discuss on the world wide web, but If you are lucky enough to be a woman, then you are more or less forced into using them for a good part of your adult life, so I thought that I’d jump right into it…  Normally I don’t put a lot of thought into sanitary pads, so when I was asked to trial the *Stayfree Ultra Thin Wings pads, I wasn’t exactly excited, but then I thought why not…..so here are my thoughts….and keep reading, as you too will have a chance to try a couple of pack….probably not the most beautiful prize you’d hoped to win, but hey, then you don’t have to buy them yourself, and can save you hard-earned cash for something more beautiful..





What They Say:
"Stayfree® Regular Wings pads feature a soft cotton quilted cover, which is soft and gentle on skin, and fast lock pockets to lock away moisture, leaving you feeling comfortable throughout the day. The pads also feature 18 anti-leak channels to help prevent leakage from every angle, as well as a Thermocontrol™ cover to help keep you dry. Stayfree® Active odour neutralisers help neutralise odours before they start".

RRP: $4.99 (pack of 20 pads) – Available from supermarkets, Priceline and chemists

What I Say:
I honestly never really give much thought tho the pads that I have to buy… well that is, I hate spending my money on them, and I for one would much rather spend my money on something more fun, but such is life!! Either I like a certain brand of pads, or I simply don’t, and well, if I like them, I tend to keep buying the same ones again and again, at least then I won’t be wasting my money on some that I don’t like!!

My body and needs have changed over the years, and technology has meant that pads have gotten better and more comfortable to wear over the years. I don’t remember the brand I started using decades ago, but I do remember that it was a lot thinker and more uncomfortable to wear – definitely didn’t want to wear tight-fitting clothing in those days!
The Stayfree Ultra Think pads are fantastic for so many different reasons…
Unlike other brands, which have a plastic layer on top, the Stayfree’s are made of cotton, so that your skin is touching cotton the whole time, which makes them so much more comfortable to wear.
They are so thin and flexible, so they move with your body without bunching up or moving around, making you feel protected the entire time.

And extremely important, these pads are also incredibly absorbent, and they keep you feeling drier for longer.
The pads have a quilted core, which has a “fast lock pockets to absorb moisture instantly and lock it away in an advanced anti-leak core”. In fact, Stayfree claims that the pads have “the best ever leakage protection”.

The pads also have active odour neutralisers to provide a delicate hint of freshness to keep you feeling clean and fresh during the day.

Finally, the pads also have Thermocontrol covers, which is designed to draw moisture away from the body to keep you dry and comfortable.

The pads are wrapped in individual wrappers making them easy to carry in your handbag, without smudging or mutilating them.

Overall, I have to say that I'm really like them I can't see myself switching or trying a new brand any time soon.
