Nuances of choice
It is difficult to choose the best panty liners from the wide range of hygiene products. Let's try to figure out how this should be done by analyzing the products in detail.
Package
Let's start with product registration. In production, the gaskets are packed individually, sealed in small envelopes to protect them from bacteria. Then they are placed in a common cardboard box or polyethylene packaging. It is better to give preference to a polyethylene covering, it is moisture resistant and durable, capable of reliably protecting the goods in case of doubtful storage.
Scent
Panty liners absorb the natural secretions of a woman's body and transform them into a gel at the middle layer. The purpose of hygiene products is to neutralize odors. The problem is solved with the help of bactericidal impregnations or special subtle aromas that interrupt the smell of biological secretions.
You should choose pads using natural products, they are safe and do not irritate the skin. For asthmatics and allergy sufferers, it is better to abandon aromatic products altogether, using neutral types of pads.
Composition
A common day pad for women has four layers.
- Top cover takes in the body's secretions and redirects it to the inner layer for an absorbent. This layer is made of thermobonds or polypropylene. Since the surface is in direct contact with the body, it is better to choose the first option, it is softer and more tactilely pleasant, since staple fibers are added to the polyester material.
- Second layer evenly redistributes liquid over the entire surface of the product and prepares it for penetration directly into the absorbent.
- Third (middle) absorbent layer converts moisture into a gel and thus retains it. Daily panty liners do not need deep impregnation, even a small amount of absorbent can cope with their tasks, therefore, for comfort, it is better to choose thin products.
- The fourth, lowest layer, shapes the pad and prevents liquid from the absorbent from getting onto the laundry. It is better not to choose a polyethylene base, it does not "breathe". Today, there is a sufficient number of materials that do not create a "greenhouse" effect and at the same time do not allow moisture to pass through. These include products made of microporous film and nonwoven materials (thermobond, spunbond).
Design features
For daily use, the sanitary pads are attached to the lingerie. It will not be possible to use them with absolute reliability during the day, since the active movement of a woman can eventually affect their fixation. Energetic ladies should choose models with a firm hold. Structurally, the products have the following varieties:
- pads with wings protect a large area of laundry from leaks;
- a product with Velcro keeps the surface from sliding, you should choose products with a natural adhesive base, for example, using starch;
- pay attention to the contour of the pad, if it follows the anatomical line of the body, the product will sit more tightly and there is less chance of leakage;
- you can choose products with sides, they also protect the surface from accidental movement of moisture.
Having analyzed in detail the daily sanitary pads, we will draw conclusions which products are still worth buying. When buying, you need to pay attention to important points.
- For a woman's health, it is necessary to consider material quality, from which the product is made. The cheapest options cannot boast of security.
- Remember the upper layer of the gasket is responsible for comfortable tactile sensations, and the lower one - for free air circulation, without the "greenhouse" effect.
- Anatomical shape will add convenience and prevent leakage.
- Adhesive base must be natural and follow the contour of the pad, not across the entire surface.
- For women with sensitive skin do not choose colored and flavored products... If the problem is particularly acute, you need to pay attention to the indications whether the given product has passed dermatologist testing. The information is contained on the surface of the package.
You should choose hygiene products taking into account your own characteristics. It is necessary to pay attention to the safety and comfort of the products. Remember that the cheapest products are made from materials that are far from good quality and can be harmful to your health.
