Yes, organic tampons and pads *are* a thing

Organic femme care products are making a big boom, and for good reason, too. Many generic tampon and pad brands that women and girls rely on bleach their products with chlorine and pesticides. Yikes! So paying attention to the ingredients and manufacturing details of products that you’re using for *your* body is absolutely essential. To get the ball rolling, check out this list of four new, clean and organic feminine hygiene brands and their products.

 

Honeypot
In fall of 2017, Honeypot is launching a line of pads and pantyliners that are free of chlorine and pesticides. Not only will they be free of chemicals, but they’ll also be naturally infused with rose, lavender, aloe and mint essential oils for added comfort and freshness. Pads that smell great, too? Definitely a win.

 

Cora
This brand makes and promotes body conscious, organic tampons for women and girls all over the world. They also work to bring feminine hygiene products to areas in need. For every box purchased, Cora donates a month’s supply of menstrual pads to a girl in India. Cora works for a cause that counts!

 
Lola
This company can deliver organic, cotton tampons straight to your door. Made by women, for women, the tampons are brought to customers in customized assortment packages, free of all dyes, toxins and synthetic materials. And they’re only made up of one ingredient: cotton.

 

The Honest Company
This bath and body company has started a brand new line of feminine hygiene products, free of fragrances and deodorants. The products are also hypoallergenic, pH compatible and 100% breathable.
