Always Ultra

Always are the pads I use most of all - I use some from different brands. I think Always are my preferance, because I feel comfortable with the fit and feel of them, pretty much. There's nothing particular I can say I don't like about Always that I have found better in other sanitary towels, because I have found that I have trouble with all pads from any brand because I have very heavy periods. I do have one main disadvantage, though, and that is the wing shape (I always use the ones with wings). It seems to be a very unconvenient shape that doesn't really fit very well around the sides, being sort of wavy shaped and long, though I must say they tend to hold ...  Read the complete review

Like a lot of girls, my mother bought my first few packets of sanitary pads when I first started having periods at age twelve. The brand she chose for me was one of the first thin pads on the market, Vespre Silhouettes (anybody remember those great adverts starring Claire Raynor?). I thought they were brilliant because they were so thin and I thought they were the best on the market. When we reached 13 my best friend told me she never used anything other than Always Ultra. She said they were better than Vespre. I didn’t believe her, and being the competitive type, so decided to have a little competition to see which one of us was 'right'! ...  Read the complete review

When I was a young girl at primary school probably the year before I started secondary school, we got the sex education chat, then the girls were taken into another room with a teacher and we were given some sanitary products and booklets. I didn't have a clue what was going on, trust me not to listen when it was actually something important. Back then I was innocent (not that I am anymore) but kids these days seem to be growing up quicker but anyway it took a while to click what the hell these things were the teachers had just given us. I remember someone calling them socks! Socks? urmm am I missing something, the boys were all asking, what have ...  Read the complete review

Pardon the unintentional pun, but I always use Always sanitary protection when it comes around to "that" time of the month. I have tried brands such as Kotex before, but I have stuck with Always as they suit me. I use a combination of the regular (for use in the daytime) and night time (obviously for use during the night when I'm lying down). I opt for the pads with wings so that they don't move around too much and contribute to any embarassing leaks. In terms of absorbency, Always works best for me. The pads are not too bulky, which is great for concealing the fact that you are wearing them. I have used cheaper own brand type sanitary protection in ...  Read the complete review

OK, I think I'll start this review with an apology to any male Dooyoo-ers who have bravely clicked on to it in an attempt to return rates! It's very kind of you, and don't worry, I'll keep it short and to the point! This is my favourite product for my time of the month, and I've tried enough different brands to know which one is best! I use Always Ultra Normal With Wings, and I find that they are far superior to the other makes available. Here's a few of the reasons why: Each pad is individually wrapped. This means that each one stays fresh, clean and dry even if you are carting it around in your handbag or rucksack all day long. I've sometimes kept ...  Read the complete review
