Hello, it's me, your friendly neighbourhood menstruator. After years of practice, I have to admit — I'm not getting any better at it and, TBH, it still sucks every. single. time.
Enter: Hello Period. The brand responsible for making comfy cups 'n' discs has entered the chat with some pretty swanky leakproof undies (cue me throwing all my pads in the trash).
It's pretty clear that these ain't the leakproof undies you might be used to. We're talking bright colours, trendy silhouettes (hello, high-rise!), and — obviously — serious protection.
It doesn't hurt that they're chic enough to wear daily (which is great for anyone dealing with light bladder leakages or postpartum incontinence).
But maybe you're set in your ways. Maybe you've been using pads and tampz for so long, it seems like that's your only option. Hot take: they're NOT. Hello Period leakproof undies are slimmer, comfier, and sweat-wicking, so you can kiss that painful chafe goodbye (you know the one I'm talking about).
And if the mesh-velvet combo just ain't your thang, no big deal! Hello Period also makes an adorable bikini style, too.
All that's to say, it's probably time to head on over to Hello Period and stock up your cart before Aunt Flo arrives (and thank me later)!
Am I...looking forward to my next period now? HECK YUS.
