Confession: I’m going to tell you that there are seven days out of every month that are my least favorite but, mother nature has deemed it a necessary reoccurring life experience so I deal with it! The one thing that matters to me when my menstrual cycle is underway is COMFORT! As women we are already uncomfortable with many different PMS symptoms and I’m sure we could swap stories all day about cramps, bloating, tender breasts, fatigue, mood swings and the list goes on. So I’m sure that I’m safe by saying when we are uncomfortable during our cycle that we’d like to get through it as comfortable as possible. I personally am a stickler for planning and have an app for almost everything! Thank goodness my period comes like clock work and even though I have an app that alerts me it’s always in sync so I know exactly what to expect and how long to expect it. Tracking my period also allows me to plan accordingly, with things I have total control over. Now, let’s see what happened when I used U by Kotex Sleek Tampons recently.
I had the opportunity to review the new U by Kotex Sleek Tampons and I was more than satisfied with my experience using it. I liked it a lot better than the regular brand I use and that was really surprising to me. I’ll tell you all the things that really stood out to me. First and foremost the packaging was eye catching and definitely designed to get your attention. The tampons were color coded using purple and black packaging and each applicator was either a bold purple, aqua or blue. I like that the individual wrappers had perforated lines making it super easy to open. Okay, the tampon itself is genius! PerfectTouch Grip makes it easy for placement, the tip is smooth for easy insertion so there’s no discomfort there and it’s slim! I’m going to tell you that my main concern when wearing tampons is comfort and my follow up is absorbency. I don’t want to worry about the embarrassment of any potential accidents that come along with a heavy period! I chose “Super” for my absorbency and it did the job and gave me the protection I needed.
U by Kotex Sleek Tampons Super are so comfortable that wearing it wasn’t really noticeable to me. I usually get a feeling of discomfort, especially towards the end of my cycle and I didn’t experience that this time. As the days went on and my period got lighter I was still able to use the same absorbency and it was still comfortable and did it’s job. I usually will switch to a regular, then light tampon towards the end of my cycle but, I used U by Kotex Sleek Super Tampons through the duration of my period and I was pleased with the results and entire experience. I have a hectic schedule that consists of me being the best wife I can be to my husband, mom to four kiddos, working full time in a career that I love, running a small business, networking, countless errands, being Mom Taxi and attending LOTS of community events. My schedule doesn’t change at all during my period and U by Kotex Sleek Super Tampon was able to protect me during all of my chaos and kept me comfortable. Anything or anyone that can do that get’s an A+ in my book!
U by Kotex Sleek Super Constituents Include: 100% elemental chlorine-free bleached rayon, polyethylene/polyester cover and rayon/polyester string. Kotex has some great products! If you’d like to see a listing of all the products offered along with individual product information you can head over to the Kotex website and check them out. I would definitely recommend trying Kotex Sleek Tampons in which ever absorbency fits your personal needs (Regular, Super or Super Plus) and Do the Demo. I have two teen daughters that have the same concerns that I do when it comes to their menstrual cycles and I would recommend Kotex Sleek Tampons to my oldest and the Tween Pads Combo Pack for my youngest. In the end, we all just want to be comfortable and protected!

I have been using U by Kotex products for a while now. They are really good and I just love the look of them.
Those are just about the fanciest monthly supplies I have every seen! Great review. 🙂

I don’t get a cycle due to my form of birth control but I love the idea of a tween combo pack for my daughter! We will give it a try!

We’ve come a long way baby!! I’m post menopausal and would have been grateful for this product during my time. The tough, dry cardboard applicator was not pleasant. This new age product is sexy looking, practical and effective as you’ve so fully accounted. The packaging practically jumps out at you, contrary to the brown bag we used to conceal it ,back in the day. Kudos!!
While those days are long gone for me, when I did have a menstrual cycle, I wanted comfort first, and absorbency second. After reading your review, if anyone were to ask me, I would certainly refer them to use this brand.

Have you ever tried a Diva Cup? I think it’s a much better option than any of the disposable products. Cheaper and also way better for the environment. Check it out if you haven’t already.
