Warnings
Tampons are associated with Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS). TSS is a rare but serious disease that may cause death. Read and save the leaflet inside the package. Use for 8 hours maximum. The risk of Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS) increases with higher absorbency. In order to reduce your risk of TSS, you should use the lowest absorbency that meets your needs.

I've used a lot of different kinds of tampons and these are my favorite and I've been using them for years.
These tampons are so easy to use and are really comfortable. The packaging is also really cute.
These tampons are also absorbent enough that I can solely use these tampons without having to buy ones for different flows. That being said, I don't have super heavy periods so I don't have to worry too much. I still like to wear a liner as a back-up.
I really love these tampons and there are no cons!

I am surprised by all the good reviews these got, so maybe these are just not for me. I have always used light tampons throughout my cycle, but I find these very uncomfortable, they leak and they "slide down" (i.e. don't stay in place). I like Tampax brands in general so I am glad other people like these. Just not sure what I am going to do with the 2 boxes I bought???

I never take the time to write reviews but this product was so helpful. My daughter was finding all the other sizes really painful since she is only 15. She swears by them and now is able to swim 3 hours every day even if she happens to have her period. THANK YOU for the slimmest applicator ever! From a grateful, concerned, mom who was really in agony over finding the most comfortable, untraumatizing tampon out there for beginners.

So hard to find in the stores. On a good day one may find these only in the combo packs & since my periods are getting much lighter these are all I need. Now for some women these might be too small & you need to make sure you insert them all the way to avoid slippage later. Every womans anatomy is different so keep this in mind. These are so comfortable I often forget about having them in. I could never wear the supers even when I had those heavy days. TMI I know but what works for one women may not for another based on their anatomy.

I cannot find the lite version anywhere anymore. I am so happy you carry these. I recommend these if you never get past moderate. I cannot figure out why they are not in stores, I can't be the only one who doesn't need super!
