09/04/2024, By TammyI was very disappointed with these. Bits of the pad gets stuck to your underwear when you try remove it, not only that, bits of the pad itself, the inside of it - it essentially starts coming apart, that's probably the best way I could describe it
I don't think I'll get these again
Their Liners are great though01/04/2024, By KirstyEven though bits of the wings stick to my underwear, these pads and panty liners are affordable and more eco friendly than others. They are also made locally which is amazing!01/04/2024, By MaeThis product is soft and used to be a favorite of mine. A couple of times after buying I realize it tears and it turns into a disgusting mess where now I am left to try and get the plastic, sometimes covered in blood, (that's the reality) off my panties.
I will buy it again but if this is still an issue I will stick to the other F2N brands which has been consistent.30/03/2024, By T.MoThe pad itself is ok but when removing it the plastic sticks to the underwear leaving behind sticky bits.17/03/2024, By AdriesThe pad itself is nice and soft to the touch, however it is quite thick. The other issue that I've had with my last two boxes was the stickiness of the pad - it sticks so much to your underwear that the plastic where the adhesive is, tears off and stays on the underwear when you need to remove it. A few times while opening a new pad the plastic tore when pulling the paper off the adhesive part. I've opted to use Natracare products again.11/02/2024, By NatasjeNot for people with heavy flow. I like that these pads are affordable and comfortable, but there is need for a little improvement. I can look past the tearing of the sticky layer, but these are a bit uncomfortably thick while not being that effective with absorbing heavy flow.06/02/2024, By Raybeen using this product for a 6 years now and it has truly made a difference. no chemicals and cotton is a win win all round.14/12/2023, By NicoleThe pad itself is soft and absorbent. As mentioned in some of the other comments, it does tend to stick to your undies and tear when removing.06/11/2023, By BronwynFrom wearing store bought uncomfortable toxic plastic pads to these soft, gentle all natural super comfortable cotton pads, I could never go back. Love love love!26/10/2023, By NivashaI have recommended this product to family & friends. Plastic from store bought pads really affect your body and I couldn’t be happier with these pads.16/10/2023, By FernOverall greaat budget option - they do have tendency to STICK to undies and rip... so watch for that. the are of the few brands that doesn't give m a rash or a reaction10/10/2023, By JudithI buy these for my daughter, and they seem to work well. She is trying to be more environmentally conscious so likes to use organic/ recylable products. We buy them regulalry20/09/2023, By NAgree they stick and tear when removing,I stick a panty liner under the pad and this solves it, as you can change just the pad frequently and the pantie liner less frequently as they do not leak. But I guess this might negate the environmental impact having to use both.
Still use them though!12/09/2023, By tLove these pads - and thankful for their affordable price. Would love a night / longer pad option.08/09/2023, By LourikaNice feel, but it sometimes sticks to my underwear and tears when removing.07/07/2023, By RowenaReally good product - better for the environment and comfortable to use07/06/2023, By MicahAs good as any other pad on the market, they're absorbent and I'm glad they're more eco-friendly :)21/03/2023, By NicoleNot bad but not my favorite. I find them to be a bit thick and not long enough. Good for light flow though. Prefer the Petallite Day pads but these are a good alternative to those.18/11/2022, By A2I like the feel of the cotton. It's comfortable.
I do however feel that there is room for improvement. The pads are quite short, the glue too stong and the water proof layer too thin. it ends up tearing when pulled off from undies which is quite disgusting.02/08/2022, By PeaThis product not only comes in a beautiful box but it also feels great to wear. A bit thick compared to others in the market and the glue that attaches it to the undies are too strong. I found that when I removed it, it often tore into pieces. Plastic also not very strong. But otherwise a good product.21/06/2022, By AlexThese are so much better than what you can get at the shops. They stick better, feel better and smell better! Will definitely keep using these.27/05/2022, By JackieI love these pads! Extremely affordable. They are really soft and comfortable. I sometimes go through a lot in a day, but I would still rather to that than use something that contains plastic and is going to take forever to biodegrade.02/05/2022, By PiweThey are the most comfortable and affordable pads I have ever used, I would highly recommend them.25/03/2022, By RiriI love that the pads are cotton, but that’s about it. The quality is not good. I’m not a heavy flow girl, but this can’t even handle moderate flow. It even teared up when I removed it from my underwear. The size of the pad is small. I think they can do better in terms of the quality , wouldn’t mind paying a little extra for good quality.16/03/2022, By Jowonderful product, ive been using it for over a year and it never fails me13/03/2022, By DiaReally like these. Don't even feel like I switched from non-organics. The feel is comfy and soft. Best one thus far13/03/2022, By DiaHave been using these for a few months already and really like them. The fit well and are nice and comfy04/02/2022, By AishaThese are my go to! They're soft, comfortable, durable and so affordable.04/02/2022, By AishaThese are my go to! They're soft, comfortable, durable and so affordable.14/01/2022, By SuhayfaI like the idea of this product for greener living. But for a heavy flow its not great12/10/2021, By EmmaLove this product. I am always looking for a new and improved pad, and this is it. Packaging is lovely and I like that there is no plastic. Will order loads more!20/09/2021, By MonicaSo good that I even got my mum on them too and she buys them in bulk.02/09/2021, By AimeeI used to suffer with pad rash from regular store brands so i decided to try these out. Organic and cotton. Very soft and i love it! No skin irritation. Already received my second order.26/08/2021, By MelissaThis is a great product. Comfortable and absorbs better than expected. Would be perfect if it was a bit bigger though.23/08/2021, By MeganTHE SOFTEST pads Ive ever used! LOVE LOVE! Feels like the softest fabric on your skin and doesn't make horrible plastic 'shoefie noises'.26/07/2021, By TandyThese are good quality yet affordable. I do find their "stickiness" has room for improvement.03/07/2021, By AmyUnbelievably comfortable, affordable and environmentally conscious. Love it. ????30/06/2021, By PoppySO comfortable, never had any issues with it. Made the change from normal pads super easy29/06/2021, By CecileFantastic product. GREAT packaging. Great price. Please bring out a narrower teen version and a longer night time product.21/06/2021, By LaurenGreat price-point. Good absorption. Raw cotton makes it really comfortable to wear, even in the heat. Just a little bulky for me and tends to bunch a little at the back if you're having a more active day. The glue on the wings does tend to stay behind on your underwear, but if you have time to peel it off after each use, then it's not a huge issue. These will be my go-to option for quieter, stay-at-home days. I prefer the Flo Bamboo Pads for more active days or when I'm away from home.10/06/2021, By AnnieI would recommend this product as firstly it feels great to use something that isn't harming the environment and is healthier for me. The only thing that I do wish they would change or offer as an alternative is a longer, thinner pad, something like a nighttime pad as these are too short for my heavier days and at night but on the lighter days they are perfect.26/04/2021, By SueSo soft and comfortable. Doesn't cause irritation like normal pads. Plus it's super affordable!20/04/2021, By PennyI usually use the fabric moon time pads, but these are such a convenient product to use and I'm very glad to have them on standby when I go out.17/03/2021, By TatumLove that it's organic. It works perfectly and absorbs well. I gave it 4 stars because once the sticky part that Wraps under the underwear broke off and I could not remove it from my underwear. I did buy it again.16/03/2021, By NasiphiThese are my go to. I am planning on using their panty liners now16/03/2021, By NasiphiThese are my go to. I am planning on using their panty liners now13/03/2021, By RuthExcellent product. My go to pad. More comfortable than any plastic one I've tried and affordable! Very comfortable with no irritation.12/03/2021, By AdriThese pads work well and the are nice and soft. The only thing that is an issue is that some of the sticky part of the pad remains stuck on your underwear when you remove it. Its happened with almost every pad that I've used.10/03/2021, By NashHighly recommend02/03/2021, By BethanyThese are incredible!! Love that it's cotton. No more nqsty rash from plastic and better for the environment.02/03/2021, By JodieBetter for my conscience23/02/2021, By Ashawas skeptical at first because the pad was shorter in length than I usually wear. But I was pleasantly surprised. Super soft and comfortable, I often forget I am wearing it. Great absorption and adheres to underwear VERY well, sometimes sticky bits remain but it is not a problem. Highly recommend. It is the only pads I use now.15/02/2021, By CandiceI love this product, it is sturdy, handled all my travels and adventures and most of all my runs without breaking./leaking. I love that it is safe for me and the environment. This is my go to pad when travelling and washing of reusable pads isn't as easy.14/02/2021, By MoniqueO yes, wanted to say as well that the glue on the wings are really sticky, if you don't take the pad off carefully or gently, the glue stays behind and you struggle to get it off. But still a good product that i'd continue to buy10/02/2021, By RozlynnMy 13 year old daughter, who is new to the world of feminine products, chooses these over any other commercial product. They dont have than plastic sound when you move and they are soft and flexible. They are not long and thick either so she doesnt feel like she is "wearing a nappy", as she puts it! They are also breathable so she doesnt feel all sweaty on hot days. She also loves that it comes in cardboard not plastic.10/02/2021, By BernadetteYou will not regret buying these! They are so comfortable on your skin, and you actually forget you are wearing it. It is also great that you can throw it away guilt-free and recycle the rest. Super awesome product and best change I've ever made!07/02/2021, By BA staple in my home31/01/2021, By GI use a pad as backup for my menstrual cup... These are a little thick for my liking, but I haven't had any bad reaction to these (I am allergic to polymer gel so I have to be very careful what I use). Good price.29/01/2021, By SimphiweThese don’t irritate my skin like the usual ones... I’ll keep purchasing29/01/2021, By MoniqueThese are good, quite a bit thicker than what i'm used to, but you don't really notice it when you wear it. Doesn't seem to hold liquid AS well as natracare brand but it's ok, for this good price i'm continuing to buy these.25/01/2021, By NadyaFinally, sanitary pads that are eco-friendly but also affordable! These work great, and it's so nice to know that there is not one ounce of plastic involved, even down to the packaging. Well done ANNA!!13/01/2021, By LucilleThe great comments have me wondering if it was just my pack? Because I didn't find that they absorbed well unfortunately.08/01/2021, By LeanaI love this, got it for a friend as well and she loves it too :)05/01/2021, By AJThese pads have by far been the best, keeps me coming back on F2N to buy more every month18/12/2020, By InneckeThis is a lovely product! Super absorbent and comfortable! And affordable. I definitely recommend if you have a heavier flow. Mine is too light to actually need a pad this thick. So I stick with the liners. But I'll keep these for those rough 1st 2 days :)13/12/2020, By AntSo happy to have stumbled across these on your website. Much better and cheaper than the imported brand. They should be made available in every school, college, university, clinic, informal shop, supermarket etc countrywide.12/12/2020, By VanessaGreat product ar a great price! Love that there is no plastic packaging.12/12/2020, By SComfortable and gentle on the skin.

I've only used them for a month, but I was very excited to find non-plastic pads.09/12/2020, By SRCDoes exactly what it’s supposed to do but feels lighter and more absorbent. Doesn’t have the cloying plastic feel to it. Really impressed05/12/2020, By TarynThe packaging is great, its comfortable, amazing absorbency and its so affordable. However, I wish it was a bit longer for sleeping. I hope they will expand the range and design a night sanitary pad.05/12/2020, By TarynI normally only use ultra thin but these were super comfortable. Would be perfect if it came in a longer size as well.27/11/2020, By AnnaDEffective! Soft and comfortable! Could maybe be a bit longer?24/11/2020, By BarbsThis is a fantastic product. I have felt comfortable using regular liners because of the plastic content. Thank you FTN for sourcing these.24/11/2020, By AmyAmazing product, provides the protection needed like any other sanitary pad. These pads are non-toxic, biodegradable and affordable, with no plastic. What's there not to love?24/11/2020, By MarianneI have been using ANNA pads for almost a year now and I absolutely LOVE IT! It sits comfortable, the absorbance is great, really affordable and the best part is that it is biodegradable (from the packaging to the pads itself).

The absorbency is the best I have ever experienced. It is perfect in absolutely every way! 10 stars!04/11/2020, By TiffanyGreat product for a great price. I always felt bad about throwing used pads away. This really takes away the guilt. Wonderful packaging too. One thing however, the pad doesn’t remain sticky for long.28/10/2020, By YolandeIt provided exactly what I need. Comfortable, great absorbency and its at a great price! What's not to like ;)25/10/2020, By LeighThe only sanitary towel that has not given me a rash. It is great and eco-friendly.23/10/2020, By NaidsThe BEST sanitary pads I have used. They are so incredibly soft. With these, I don't worry about chafing, or any skin irritation for that matter, which is truly amazing. They have great absorbance too! Would love to have a wider variety one day, but these are a great medium-flow pads, but can handle more if need be!
Just be careful when removing them from your underwear, as sometimes the sticky strips can be a bit stubborn.20/10/2020, By NicolaLove these pads! I started using ANNA sanitary pads a about a week or so after giving birth and these are a lot more comfortable than regular pads. Also love the packaging and the fact that it's locally made. Very well priced too, I'm sticking to these.12/10/2020, By CornéThe absolute best pads that I have ever used! Comfortable, reliable and AFFORDABLE!
