These are so comfortable and fit lovely. The only issue is they don’t mask the smell of blood, after the first bit of blood they give off an awful smell

pads are a thing of the past with this comfy underwear which feel so comfortable they are so absorbent as though you are wearing a pad they are amazing

Lulubug1989 • 3 years ago

Amazingly comfortable, no leakages. I would be more inclined to wear these at bed time as that’s when I tend to wear pads. I had a medium size and I’m usually a 12 in clothing these were just right for my size. I would be inclined to buy at least 5 pairs but I wouldn’t be willing to pay £25 a pair. Maybe £10/£15 a pair possibly in different colours too?! Over all I rate these an 8/10 based on over all fitting, practicality and pricing.

MrsSneddon • 3 years ago

Honestly, I'm not sure about these. I love the concept but they are not made for women with heavy periods. I have really heavy bleeding and these just don't offer me the protection I need. They look nice and feel like good quality but designed for women with light periods. I also think they are a bit expensive at £25 as I would imagine most women would want to have more than one pair. I didn't feel particularly clean wearing them to be honest.

KelsieTheCactus • 3 years ago

My period is due in a few days so I'll be trying them out then, I think I'll try them on my 'lighter' days though as I've seen a few folks with heavy periods say that they don't offer the right protection for us heavy period people so, instead of having leakage problems, I'll probably try them on day 2 or 3 of my period as that's when my period gets a tiny bit lighter to say maybe a 'normal' flow.

Justusandourtwo • 3 years ago

These have definitely changed periods for me as they did not leak and most importantly did not irritate my skin like pads normally do as I always end up sore. I am very impressed with them and I couldn't wait to wash them and dry them at the end of the day ready to wear again in the morning. I did put them to test and see how long until they were unable to retain there leakage, which was around 9 hours for myself. There are a few things that I think would suit other people's time of the month and needs such as if they came with a lighter colour absorbency as some people might need to check there flow and colour of their period and personally I would love if they came in more than two different styles like a high waisted full breif especially for new mums who might of had a c section. I also think that different flow range from medium to mega flow would be helpful then you could have a different pair for those heavier days.

The pricing of them is a little pricey but if you compare it to buying organic sanitary pads like myself they cost around £4 for 10 pads and therefore once every month for a year works out £48 which makes them worth it and if they last as well as they have the few times I have washed them, then you will not have to buy a new pair every year so really your saving.

I wear a size L and am normally a size 12-14 and they fit perfectly. I do think more size ranges would be good, as the largest is XL which I think narrows down who can wear them.

Overall I would recommend to anyone who is looking for something more eco friendly and money efficient, having them has improved my experience with periods and I would definitely buy another pair without a doubt if they brought out a high waisted style.

Donkeyradish • 3 years ago

Sadly whilst I was so excited to receive and try these, they are far too small! I received the XL and I am a size 20 (supposed to be for a 18-20) but I would not feel comfortable wearing them. So unfortunately I wouldn’t recommend these to anyone who is above a size 16. Yet again, plus sized ladies don’t have a choice.

Such a shame as these are really pretty, and feel like great quality. Please bring out some bigger sizes please!

beccahamlett • 3 years ago

I absolutely LOVE these pants. Super comfortable, no odour during my period and I found they even reduced my pains. On the days I wore these pants I had NO period pains (this is coming from someone who has suffered with horrendous pains all of my life). When I changed my pants to normal underwear & a sanitary pad my pains came back with a vengeance!

Alicarroll • 3 years ago

Really comfortable and beautifully made underwear but I must be honest and say I'm not sure they are entirely for me. I'm very worried about leakages and odours
I suppose I need to wait for my period to give them a proper try but I think I may just use them at bedtime.

Iulik • 3 years ago

The underweare is really comfortable and it looks really pretty. I used them over night and I must say it feels much better than wearing pads or tampons all the time. As my period lasts for 7 day is great to have a product that I can wear in the last few days when the flow is not so heavy. Until now I am rather happy with this product.

ReignXo • 3 years ago

I feel like specifically they would be wondeful for young girls starting out their periods and are intimidated by other products. However I am loving them and can’t wait to share how easy they are, especially with washing, smells etc. I’ve talked to people about them in the past and this seems to be the biggest worry x

anichka88 • 3 years ago

I am surprised that they are so flexible, so soft and when I wear tight pants everything is under control! I would love to have one more pair!

Roxie1.tester1 • 3 years ago

I'm loving mine so far, I have light periods so I feel very confident wearing these! they really do feel like normal knickers :) like a lot of you guys have mentioned the only thing is the price for one pair is a little steep for a lot of women to afford, I would love to see these in "value packs" of maybe three pairs for a cheaper price, i think most of us would like to have atleast three pairs so when a pair is getting washed you have spares.

roseaphine92 • 3 years ago

I’m absolutely loving these pants and I’m so grateful for the opportunity to review them. I’ve had to wait a few days for the monthly visitor but I’m so impressed! So comfortable and discreet, will definitely be purchasing more of these pants. Total game changer!

Khodson • 3 years ago

Thrilled to be able to test these Intima wear period pants so a massive thank you to you!

These are a great alternative to tampons / pads as they are washable and reusable. They cater for light to medium flows for up to 8 hours. From my experience, I have worn they at the beginning and end of my period as that’s when I’m lightest.

My first worry was how hygienic they were then I read that the TriTech performance combined absorbent and breathable layers making these pants super hygienic putting my mind at ease.

I rinsed them in cold water then chucked them in my usual wash load and let them dry naturally. They can be tumble dried on a low setting but I preferred to dry them naturally.
I was happy to find out they last for a minimum of 50 washes!

These look absolutely and feel amazing! I cannot get over how comfy they are. I thought they’d be like Bridget Jones’ big knickers but I was completely wrong. I liked that there are 2 styles (bikini and hipster) and two colours to choose from (black and burgundy). I am a size 8-10 and the medium size fit me perfectly. I didn’t want to risk a small size as we can all relate to feeling bloated around that time of the month. I was worried with them being 50% cotton / 50% nylon as I thought the Nylon might irritate me but that was not the case at all as the gusset area was cotton.

They are worth £24.99 and definitely transforms that ‘time of the month’! Not only that, they are sustainable and reduce the carbon footprint too!

Ariella • 3 years ago

@Khodson, thank you so much for sharing your detailed feedback! We are over the moon that you love the pants!

sarahma17 • 3 years ago

I was really excited about trying these period pants as I get pad rash, struggle with tampons and the menstrual cup just seems messy....
They are comfortable and more environmentally friendly as they are reusable.
Like others have mentioned the cons for me are smell of blood, the price of the pants especially when you need to buy a couple!

Nitlily • 3 years ago

I am so looking forward to try them as my period starts next week. Since my first ever period, I ALWAYS had pad rash and all sorts of inflammation down there. :-/
I am so hopefull to try this pants, I already did though, it fits perfectly, so silky and comfy wear.
I hope they will reduce the price a little bit, or there will be a more pants in a package for £25. I am sure it would be sold out in no time!

Jazzywazzy • 3 years ago

Am I the only one who find them ill fitting , at first they seem ok but I find they cut into my legs but when I sit down they have a large gap so I don't feel confident wearing them at all 😦

freakfire • 3 years ago

I only got chance to wear them right at the end of my period so far, but looking forward to testing them properly next month. They seem comfy and a good fit, although I noticed that the absorbent bit doesn't go quite forward enough, so I can see them leaking on heavier days. The washing instructions are also a bit of a pain, as the only non-fabric softerner washes I do are at higher temperatures, so I have to do a special wash just for these. Not the end of the world but a bit of an inconvenience and not so eco-friendly.

freakfire • 3 years ago

Shared the code on Twitter and Insta btw :)

alexiskate85 • 3 years ago

Tried them on when I got them and they seemed comfy enough but today I got my period so I got to really put them to the test !
I do think they are a nice fit , although I found the top rolled a bit when I sat down .
As for the effectiveness of them...I love them !
My periods are normal to heavy and I got about 8 hours out of them . No leaks . Did not feel wet or uncomfortable at all . Left me feeling quite clean and dry . I didn’t notice any bad smell either and best part - no irritation as I always get from pads!
I love these. It’s a shame they are £25 a pair though. Very expensive initial set up .

Macagnan • 3 years ago

So, Whistl messed up my delivery. Left my package in a green bin without a card and it was collected and emptied. I was so excited to try these, as I currently use a different brand. Whistl package tracking website says the package was delivered and signed for, when it was not. They also do not accept my complaint as I am not the sender. Waiting to hear from trnd about it. But I can say, Whistl has really poor customer service. No idea about the undies, as I have not had a chance to even see them.
:(

CatMit • 3 years ago

I have thoroughly enjoyed using these. I had my period this last week and they are so comfortable, I forgot I was wearing anything! Very absorbent too. I am so impressed!! Going to post on instagram now :)

Mayek • 3 years ago

I am still a bit sceptical but I will put them to test this week. I just cannot imagine washing it with the rest of the clothes. They are nice in touch, I am ok with the fit. Although I am not used to a thick pad all over the place.

Now, the price is really a bit too much.. A little bit off putting for some. As there are other solutions that are sustainable and environmentally friendly.

I posted my picture for my friends but most of my girlfriends came back to me with: "I am not yet so progressive". I think the idea of washing the panties with the rest of the load might put them off. But lets see! I will give it a go! But I would have never bought them myself for 25 quid... :(

Barcsik.anita • 3 years ago

My jaw dropped when I opened the parcel!

I am so impressed with the outlook of this period panty!

I couldn't believe the panty made of such fine material!
It looks so beautiful.
You can still look sexy while on your red days, right? :D

zyusein1 • 3 years ago

I tried the item and they are super comfy and stretchy. The material is very soft and silky. However I wouldn't use them when my flow is heavy as I need the extra protection. I also wouldn't wash them with my regular clothes in the washing machine and I can't definitely wash them by hand - eww. Over all I love the idea of the pants especially that they are good for the environment and cost effective in the long term but personally I don't think they are for me.

HOLLIETOYNEBEE-SMITH • 3 years ago

hmmm I'm not completely sold on these i just think the initial outlay of getting enough to see you through a period is alot of money and people just wont do it. for a 7 day flow you would need two pairs a day so without washing every day, lets say every 3 days for an average person perhaps, you would need at least 6 pairs and that's £150! they last approx. 50 wears so lets say each pair gets used twice in each flow that's a maximum of 2 years. I work out if i buy a 20 pack of tampons at £2 each a month, over two years i only spend £50 so all in all i think they are quite expensive and most people wont be able to justify it.
obviously the environment impact is the main "sell" but at a time where money is tight people cant always put the environment above their financial situation.

ReignXo • 3 years ago

Does anyone know if we can used fabric softener on these? Xx

Ariella • 3 years ago

@ReignXo, great question! In order to maintain the quality of the pants, it is not recommended to use fabric softener on them. They are, however, safe to wash in the washing machine, only avoid fabric softener!

Gbrunet1 • 3 years ago

Hi,
I ve been using the last 2 days of my period and surprisingly impressed with it.
A bit worried at first and then after 1 jour or 2 completely forgot about it and felt really comfortable and free.
I even went for a run with it and felt great.
It does not have any bad odours at all.
I hope that you will extend the line to different type of underwear and the pads either lighter padd or heavier depending on the period.
Question for the women who will only choose this will be a line to go swimming ? As i think it s something to consider

Estherella1 • 3 years ago

I used it on the first few days of my period and was pleasantly surprised with how comfortable it was and how secure I felt. There were no leaks and it is super absorbent. You forget you are wearing it or on your period as it felt comfortable under my clothes too. I liked that it could be washed and reused. If you wanted to use for the duration of your period you would need a handful of these pants. Not sure if this is more cost effective long term as an alternative to buying pads or tampons. But I do love the idea of period pants and being eco friendly too.

Ashleejane • 3 years ago

I'm liking the feeling of these pants! They're very soft, although the material is more swimsuit-y that I'd like, it's very well made.
My only issue is with the padding, I feel it's quite thick compared to other brands and if I'm wearing leggings or yoga joggers, I'm not super comfortable.
Absorbance and odour control is good, I've use it on my first day (heavy flow) and they did the job! Now waiting for them to come out of the laundry to see how well they wash and how fast they dry!
