Environmenstrual Modern Cloth Pads Review

Hello lovelies,
  Today I will be doing a review on a wonderful shop by the name of Environmenstrual. I was lucky enough to have won one of Rachel's awesome giveaways that she offers quite often. She sells a great variety of pads from thong liners up to 13.5' Xl overnights. Her pads are some of the most beautiful ones that I have ever seen. They are topped with a variety of beautifully dye fabrics like minky, bamboo velour and cotton velveteen. The core of her pads are made from super absorbent bamboo fleece . What makes her pads even more awesome is that she uses a hidden layer of pul to make them waterproof and backs the pads in gorgeous cotton prints. So they are truly beautiful from top to bottom.

On to the pad I won. It's a beautiful overnight pad topped in mystic potion minky and backed in a pretty floral print that compliments it perfectly.
The pad is 11.5in long and has two snaps to adjust the middle width to your liking. It snaps at approximately 2.5in on the smallest snap and 3in on the widest snap. 

This pad is one of the most absorbent pads I have ever used. The core is made up of two layers of bamboo fleece and is wonderful. I was having a super heavy flow day and decided to test this bad boy out. I kept going to the bathroom to see if I needed to change it and every time I did  it still looked fine and like it could hold more. I kept this pad on for 6 hours! At that point I was sure that my flow must have just slowed down. I changed pads and went to rinse this one out. WOW! My flow had definitely not slowed down at all!!! This pad had held a ton!!!! I was truly amazed. To top it all off its super trim. It is the trimmest heavy pad I own. 

Rachel is a great pad maker and has definitely made an awesome product through and through. She is based in Australia and that makes for a slightly great shipping fee if you are in the US but it is worth it. If you are curious about her pads and have considered making a purchase. Do it, do it now! Environmenstrual pads are the bomb!


I did not purchase this pad but I promise that wining this pad has not had any impact on any part of the review above. I wrote this review of my own want and desire to share with my readers this awesome cloth pad brand.

Blossom pads Cloth Pads Review


This review will be on Blossom pads . Blossom Pads come in many different sizes ranging from 6in micro liners up to 12in supers. She offers cotton velour and flannel topped pads. Her cores consist of   Bamboo and cotton and are backed in anti pill moisture resistant fleece. Her design is very nice. Her pads have a fleece and cotton print wings and base then she sews on the bamboo/cotton core and topper either flannel or cotton velour soaker with a decorative top stitch. So it look like this.

I love this design a lot because it matches the shape of my panties and conforms perfect to them and my body. Some women like to move their pads more to the front or back of their panties if their flow tends to go one way or the other and that is not possible with the shape of this pad so just keep that in mind. I'm a straight down flow kind of girl so these work awesome for me.

She labels her pads with engraved letters on her snaps. L for light, M for moderate/regular and S for super like this.

Blossom Pads measure 2.75in wide in the middle when snapped and flare out moderately to 3.25 in on both ends.

Her pads snap up awesome do to the wing and soaker design. The pads have nice full coverage wings which really help keep the pad in place.

So onto my order. I purchased a intro into cloth kit from her. In it was a 10' flannel topped super, a 8' cotton velour moderate and a 6' micro liner.
I have used these pads for three cycles now and love them. The 10' super flannel topped pad has become a bit pilly but thats just the nature of flannel and is completely normal. It held my heaviest day of flow with no problem and no leaks. The 8' moderate cotton velour topped pad is my favorite. It super soft pretty trim and holds a lot. I tried it on a heavy day just to test it an it held up perfectly. The 6' micro liner is cotton velour topped and fleece backed with no core. It is 2' wide when snapped. It is so soft and so thin. It's the perfect liner to use everyday or as a cup or tampon back up. The awesome thing about is as well is that by adjusting the angle in which you snap the wings it can be shaped as a regular or thong liner.

So I must say if you are considering purchasing from Blossom pads go for it! Her prices are great, her shipping is fast, the owner has great communication and is a pleasure to buy from and above all else the pads work great!

These are my own personal thoughts as a buyer and user of this brand.
