jersey alchimique
New product
A new design for classic-shaped period pads. A more rounded shape, yet still symmetrical, and available in three sizes that match the sizes I’m most often asked for. This makes choosing quicker and easier
with just three sizes:
small: 15 cm long by 17 cm wide when open and 7.5 cm wide when closed
medium: 29.5 cm long by 17 cm wide when open and 7 cm wide when closed
maxi: 43 cm long by 17 cm wide when open and 7.5 cm wide when closed + an extra absorbent strip
DESIGN:
area where bleeding occurs: alchemical jersey: skulls, crows, vials, candles, butterflies
back of the pad (the part that rests against your underwear): plain purple
Jersey is a comfortable fabric that wicks away blood relatively quickly. It is made from 95% cotton and 5% elastane
Pads with a jersey topper are made from the jersey scraps left over from my CoffinShorts. You can therefore match your period protection between your knickers and pads.
Pads are sold individually; select your choice from the drop-down menu and add them to your basket one by one. If a size isn’t displayed, it means it’s no longer available
TIP: to know which side of the pad goes on top, look at the press stud; the ‘coffin rock’ press stud is always on the outside

When we are a girl, we regularly have what I call "her bloody encounters with her femininity" and inevitably, it is still common to use disposable towels and pads...
Besides the fact that they are polluting to make, and to destroy, they can be allergens, are generally chlorine bleached and designed with chemicals, waterproof plastic can release odor not too cool, give a burning sensation and lots of things not too much funny...
There are several ecological alternatives to collect its menstrual blood. The one I propose is a washable sanitary napkin.My explanatory video visible on youtube
They are made of three layers, the first is waterproof and avoids staining the underwear, the second is a terry cloth pad, and the top layer is a soft cotton. They are in the shape of a standard towel and hold thanks to a scratch at the level of the fins. Once used, it is sufficient to rinse them with cold water, then either throw them in the washing machine, or wash them with hot water and soap-detergent. You can also soak them with tea tree essential oil.
I suggest you read this wikipedia article about menstrual cups, which are an ecological and sustainable alternative for those who do not like towels and prefers tampons...
