The bright colours and packaging of these certainly draw you in when staring at all the products and options on the shelves these days. They are a pretty good tampon, as far as absorbency and non leakage goes. However during my 'lighter' days I find them very hard to insert and often they just won't sit right and feel a bit uncomfortable at times. They have a tendency to bunch up if you're a bit rough with them The boxes are hard to open without ripping them and if throwing in a bag they'd end up everywhere so I was glad to see the resealable packets they now have. Overall they are nothing too special and do not stand out against any other brands unless you really like the cool packaging.

U by Kotex Tampons Review
U by Kotex Tampons come in a variety of absorbencies to suit different flows. They are designed to give you maximum protection during your flow and work by expanding and adapting to your body’s shape.
U by Kotex Tampons are super comfy to wear and easy to use. Some girls find tampons harder to insert towards the very end of their period when the flow is much lighter. Inserting a tampon at this time can be uncomfortable. U by Kotex Tampons have a slim design and come with a slender tip because, let’s face it, if you’re suffering period pain and all the things that come along with your period, you want things to be as easy as possible.
Available in Mini, Regular and Super

Tips: The resealable packs are good for keeping in the handbag but if you have quite a light flow you may struggle with them, even the slim ones are tricky
These are usually on special at the supermarket, and I like the packaging the best, so funky! They are small and seem to have great absorbency - never had any "accidents"
The main reason I pick U over any other brand now is because of the packaging. i love the bright colours and patterns. It does exactly the same job as the other brands but it just doesn't have the pink or teal floral packaging.
Tips: Grab at least one pack of the set that come in little snaplock packs. They're a cute way to carry them in your hand bag or car without having to get embarrassed (not that anyone should feel embarrassed since every single woman goes through it every month).
I don't really have a huge preference for brands, I generally buy whichever brand is on sale. But the thing that stands out about this brand is the colorful packaging. It's nice but not really something I look for in tampons. I do find the small boxes handy to have in my purse in case I need them unexpectedly. The wrappers easily come off. The ones of this brand that I like the most are the applicator ones just for the convenience, it's easier to use and if you have long nails it's feels better then using your fingers not to mention less messy.
Tips: Stock up when it's on sale. Put one box in your purse and one in the bathroom. If you have long nails I would recommend trying the applicator ones.
I absoloutely love u Kotex! The branding, packaging and colours make me feel more confident in purchasing. Not only that but i have never had any issues with their products and absoloutely love them! The applicators are easy to use and there is no discomfort whatsoever!. 10/10 highly recommend!
I absolutely think that the colourful packaging is what sells these over any other brands. My only issue with these are that they are overly drying when not fully needed. They last along time but seem to soak up everything when you have a light period making it hard to remove. This is much more suitable for heavier periods.
I love this brand mainly becasue they are all so colourful and have pretty designs but also the products are really good. As a female we trust that these products will do exactly what they say otherwise the consequences could be horrific. This is affordable and discreet. I find that these are a lot more comfortable for me, and as a bonus they are cute colours and packaging.
I don't know if it's the bright coloured packaging, or the cutesy packets they come in, but these are my "go to" lady products. I love them. They are affordable and work well.
While I realise they are probably marketed towards teens, maybe that's why I like them?! I'm young. I'm hip. Look at my tampons.
Tips: The bright colours serve as a great colour learning tool for kids. I keep finding mine lined up, by colour, in the living room.
Really like the cute packaging that's what drew me in to buying them also the price point is great. What more can I say they work well and are my go to for that time of the month.
The packaging made me want to try this product, I loved the bright colours and easy twist open, no mucking around finding tabs etc! Great absorption and comfortable to use each month! Will always be my trusty go to!
