U by Kotex Ultra Thins Review

The first thing that drew me to these pads was the packaging - bright, colourful and cute. But of course as we all know, some things can be decorated as much as they like and still be a dud. Thankfully, these pads aren't like that at all!

They don't shift about, the glue isn't horrible and I haven't had any leakage problems while using them.

I'm also very happy with the price of them - feminine hygiene products can certainly add up after a while, so I'm glad these are relatively cheap. I won't use any other brand!

I was lucky enough to get a pack full of samples from almost the whole range of U by Kotex & I have to say I am a big fan. I love how the pad really does curve to your body. That is always the bonus with thin pads but just because it's really thin doesn't mean it can't do the job. I have always preferred pads that have wings because I just feel like I have extra protection from leakage (which personally is always my biggest fear) plus I like how the wings give it that extra grip to stay in place when wearing. The extra absorbent core is the real winner here making me feel safer on slightly heavier days or when I might be stuck somewhere unable to freshen up. I also quite like the black packaging with a splash of colour. Not that it changes the effectiveness of the product at all but I does make it feel kinda classy.

I love the funky bright packaging. The are absorbant & a good shape & I feel comfortable wearing them. Price is always good!

These pads are great, fit well, absorbent yet don't feel bulky. The packaging is funky, fun and very eye catching. However I reacted to something in the pads which unfortunately means I won't be using them again, but I would recommend them to anyone else who doesn't have as sensitive skin as I have.

These are brilliant, they are so comfortable I always forget I have one on. They are super thin but super absorbent, and it absorbs straight away. I used to use a different brand and found that the blood sat on the pad before it absorbed it, which really sucked when you were sitting or laying down because it would move off the pad and into my knickers. These are a great length too, you can't really place it wrong, so it will always catch what it needs too.

U by Kotex have created a whole range of great products. These ultra thin pads do exactly what they should do... they are "barely noticeable"...they stop leakages...and my favourite feature, is that you can use its wrapper to wrap your used pad, with a handy little adhesive strip. This is a fantastic idea.

Highly recommend these pads. You can walk around with confidence, that nobody can tell you have your monthly, and no bunch ups.

They're quite inexpensive, and you can even go to their website to get free packs before you buy.

Very absorbant and comfortable! Stays nicely in place rather than getting all bunched up. I no longwr require them as had a hysterectomy, but I used to use them often as I bleed heavily. Always felt fresh and clean.

Stay in place, comfy, no leakage, and happy with the price. Plus the packaging is cool. Not much more to say than that. Highly recommended :)

I have used these pads for as long as I can remember. I first tried them as they were giving out samples and never really tried another brand unless they are out. They offer a designs pack which have designs on the pad and make wearing a pad that much better. U by Kotex is one of the cheapest brands out there but cheap doesn't always mean nasty, especially in this case. I like how they come in a 14 pack opposed to a 12 pack like regular brands do, as the extra 2 definitely come in handy. I have only come across one problem with them all these years and that was that they weren't really absorbing but only ever in once. U by Kotex is certainly the market leader as they were also the first to incorporate the outer packing and adhesive backing into one which saves time and rubbish. These are definitely my favourite brand!
