What's the difference between cotton and bamboo plush pads?

These menstrual pads are made of cotton. It's a natural material rather than plush which is manmade, so this makes it cooler against your skin. They are also more slimline, so if you prefer a more discreet pad or if you're buying for a child, teen or teenager, these are perfect! They will also stay in place more as the cotton fabric tends to grip better. The downside of being thinner is that they are a bit less absorbent, so if you have heavy flow periods, we'd recommend the bamboo plush instead.

How to look after your Cheeky period protection

	Rinse them in cold water when you change them and then soak in cold water until you are ready to wash them​. Wash at 20°C or 30°C on a longer cycle, warm washing sets blood stains and can damage your pads. You can give them a squirt of stain spray and/or add a scoop of stain powder to the wash. Wash dark colours separately.

Washing and Care Guide

Tips for using Cheeky Pads:

Cotton or Bamboo / Bamboo Charcoal - plain side facing upwards, patterns towards underwear

Insert the pad into your knickers with the plain side of cotton or bamboo / bamboo charcoal face upwards. Close the poppers underneath the gusset of your knickers.

Tight Pants
Firstly, try to wear fairly tight fitting pants. If you usually keep your old, saggy pants which have really seen better days for that time of the month, time to invest in some new ones! Tighter pants will help a cloth pad stay in place and avoid slippage. Cotton knickers are best or cotton / lycra mix.

Turn 180° if you suffer from slippage with Bamboo and Bamboo Charcoal pads
The soft outer plush fabric has some grip - if it is inserted against the nap of the fabric. If you notice that your pad is slipping, turn it around 180 degrees, front to back.
