Advantages: Good absorbency, good size

Disadvantages: Are thin so not so great for really heavy flow

Once a month I get my monthly visit. I dread that time of the month like most women do and I hate spending money on sanitary products cos they seems such a waste of money! However I do always branded products and thought I'd give these a whirl!



The Packaging:



Light purple square plastic wrapper. On the front there is a picture of a sanitary towel and I'm told they are Always 'Ultra' and that they are long and that there are 14 of them in the pack. Other information on the pack includes information on the absorbency's offered within the Always range, disposal details and contact details for Always.



The Pads:



You can buy these in just pads or wrapped as I do. My wrapped ones come in light lilac plastic wrappers made of plastic that have a white sticky label tab that easily peels away thus you can open out the pad with ease and no fuss. What you are then met with is pad lying on the wrapper securely. It is thin, rather wide (so you have to wear sensible pants with these ladies lol) and in the middle of it under the top soft white layer of a thin cotton cloth you have a blue centre which is highly absorbent to that particular section and it's listed on the packet as being 'secureguard'. All you do with it then is peel off the back wrapper and it has a large sticky area to the back of it and gently push the pad onto your underwear.Once you do that the pad is really secure and it doesn't move at all out of place making this ok to wear at night too.



Verdict:



Although these pads are not very thick looking at all and are certainly a very generous width and length they are highly absorbent and very comfortable and I personally can forget it's there. Of course how often you have to change it is personal and varies woman to woman but with these I do find I don't have to change them as often as some other brands. It absorbs blood into it, away from the body very well indeed and leaves you feeling quite fresh considering!



Available in all good supermarkets costing about £1.70 a pack for a pack of 14. Other types of pads are also available from Always of course and in many different shapes and sizes!

Summary: A good quality sanitary product
