My mother was a very traditional woman. Any discussion or evidence of period or menses should be hidden from the men in the family, namely my father and my brother. It was considered ‘dirty’. When you have your period, you aren’t allowed to offer joss sticks to the deities either (we were taoist).
But times have changed, I’ve grown up and realised that having menses is not only natural, it is also necessary for mankind. I trust you to come to the conclusions on your own. So here I am, being a rebel and all, am going to discuss sanitary pads and panty for all to read. More specifically, UUcare Sanitary Panty and Pads.
What’s so great about a panty?
Before I get into that, let me back track a little on why I decided to review UUcare sanitary panty. I first came across UUcare sanitary napkins at a Sample Store event back in March and had since become a fan. The sanitary napkins are super absorbent, as in I had NOT had any leakage since switching to the brand. It is also very comfortable and with its antibacterial properties, I think it is great for post-partum use. In fact, I’ve recommended it to all mothers who book their baby planning service with me.
Now back to the sanitary panty. I put it on. It held sanitary pads in place. I felt comfortable and ‘secure’, if you know what I mean. I also like the seamless boy cut that doesn’t leave a visible panty line under a skirt or tight pants.
Let me explain how this panty is specially designed for your menstrual needs.
Let’s face it. Leakage happens to the best of us. So the clever people behind this panty designed a unique crease design along the back that pulls the panty closer to your curve. This allows the sanitary pad to fit perfectly. Thus, avoiding leakage from the sides or the back caused by body movement.
It is made with special breathable fabric with slim elastic edging on both sides that are breathable and easy to wash. It also has double positioning stripes to help accurate positioning and folding of napkin wings. If you tuck the wings on the top lining with the width of 7 cm that fits perfectly to body curves, you can avoid the wings from rubbing against your inner thighs. Pretty neat, eh?
Before I forget, the best thing about UUcare products is the UUcare special antibacterial surface, which inhibits bacterial growth effectively. This feature prevents bacteria and eliminates odour, and it’s suitable for sensitive skin.
UUcare sanitary panty is available at Guardian, Cold Storage and OG retailing at $29.90. Every pack includes a panty, 2 trial sanitary napkins (a must try!) and 2 small packets of stain remover. Do try it for yourself.
PS: In case you are wondering, size L fits me perfectly.
