Tampons with Applicator
Description
Shop organic cotton tampons with applicators made of smooth, coated cardboard; not cold, hard, single-use plastic.
Available in two sizes: Regular (16) and Super (14).
Our Tampons with Applicators are made with premium, GOTS certified goodness: organic cotton that meets the globe's highest standard of ethical, social, and environmental practices.
Unlike big retail brands, we do not use any rayon in our products.
Be careful as rayon is often disguised as "natural wood pulp" in some ingredient lists. Why? Because "natural wood pulp" comes from trees that are 1) deforested, and then 2) processed using metric tons of heavy and toxic chemicals to break down those trees into that soft, cotton-looking pad or tampon. The chemicals used to break down the trees into a wearable textile can be dangerous to humans - particularly the workers who work with them.
Layer in some super absorbent polymers and you've got yourself a totally synthetic pad and tampon. Nothing "natural" about it.
If you want a truly natural product: we've got you covered with one of nature's most breathable and absorbent materials: renewable, organic cotton. We feel that organic cotton isn't just better for your body, but comes from a more sustainable source that also keeps people all along the supply-chain safer in comparison to synthetic products.
Our tampons contain organic cotton grown without the use of herbicides or pesticides. No more cutting down trees to make pads and tampons. No more of this rayon aka: "natural wood pulp." No extra added absorbent polymers. No more plastic wrappers and packaging and applicators all up in my garbage can after period week, please and thanks!
