I really use to love this product, but since a couple month, I feel they changed the position of the glue on the wings and the pads are not sticking well now to my panties, I found and old one hidden in my summer backpack and I can definitely tell the bonding agent on the wings are now closer to the pad instead of near the edge of the wings. Which sometime cause me to have the wings bonded underneath of the pad instead of on my panties.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am pregnant so I gave it to my sister. I am pretty sure Kotex never disappoints me. My sister loves it. It is very absorbent and comfortable. It is breathable and gives her freedom feeling during her period.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These were pretty uncomfortable for me and I still had leakage despite changing once an hour. This may be perfect for those who are smaller and have a lighter flow but as a plus sized woman with an extremely heavy flow I didn’t make it one day before I gave up on these

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The size of the pad made me chuckle a bit because it was the size of my hand. Other than that this pad wasn't that bad. It was surprisingly comfortable. I did slightly bleed through on my heaviest day while I was sleeping, I do hope they revamp in and add a little more front and back side coverage. Other than that I did like this pad and will probably switch from my normal pads to this brand.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These work really well for me! They’re comfortable and fit really well. I feel like I can breathe while using them, which is great! I like the length of the pads as well which is great for absorbing and not causing leakage
Severe allergic reaction

Sick of products changing - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
No stars if possible. I have had an allergic reaction to these pads. Not just severe sore achy redness and severe itching (not in a place where that is possible to address-bikini area/Brazilian wax area) but severe pins and needles and a general feeling that my entire body (from face down to my knees) is on fire which develops into hives that cover my torso. My adult daughter happened to be here and need a pad. She had the same reaction in her bikini area. Did this product change? Either way this is absolutely not a normal reaction. Absorbency was ok still had leaks-would never recommend for overnight but great during the day. I always flip the pad around to have the wider side upfront. Leaks still occur. Zero oder control. Comfort was what you expect.

I really liked the length and the absorption but definitely I'm not a big fan on the glue of the pads, like it doesn't stay where it needs to stay.
1 reply from U by Kotex Expert team - 2 months ago
Hi Diana, thanks for reaching out and sharing this with us. The adhesive should be strong enough to hold in place, while being easy enough to remove; and your pad should stay in place. Since this wasn't your experience, we'd like to learn more and see how we can help. When you have a free moment, please give us a call at 1-877-485-6839 Monday–Friday from 8am-5pm CT, as our product specialists will be able to help further.

ive never reviewed anything but i have to on these. the old kind that didnt have the charcoal lining were great. but ever since they changed theyve been giving me like pimples and its itchy and painful. i tried an "organic" brand and had no problems and when i put one of these on since its all i had, the pimples came back so i knew its these. maybe im allergic idk but the charcoal lining is a marketing scheme. you dont smell. theres no need for this change in these. please release a charcoal free version!!!

Thank you for taking the time to share your review, Lily. We’re disappointed to hear about your experience as your comfort and well-being are our top priorities! The charcoal in our Balance pads is 100% plant-based ingredient that can help neutralize odors without harsh ingredients while still offering comfortable protection. However, we understand everyone has different needs. If you're open to trying an alternative pad, our Clean & Secure line does not contain charcoal…we would recommend giving these a try. Since we design our products to ensure what you're describing is unlikely to occur, we’d like to learn more and see how we can help. Please give us a call at 1-877-485-6839 Monday–Friday from 8am-5pm CT when you have a moment, we’re eager to assist. Thanks!
This Product STINKS! JUST LIKE THE IDEA OF CHARCOAL IN PADS!

WHY DID YOU YOU ADD SOMETHING SO UNNECESSARY LIKE CHARCOAL TO A PERFECTLY GOOD PRODUCT? I have Kotex products for more than 15 years of my life and I am only in my early 30's right now. Never using your products again. I got such a bad rash after using these. Be kind to your customers, Kotex! Do you think menstrual periods stink? Thanks for perpetuating stigma around periods and reinforcing the notion that periods are "smelly" and gross. I'll never use another Kotex product. Only a man could have developed this garbage!

Hi Scarlett Charlotte, we'll be sure to pass your feedback along to our team regarding the charcoal in our Balance pads. The charcoal is a 100% plant-based ingredient that is safe on skin and can help neutralize odors without harsh ingredients while still offering comfortable protection. However, we understand everyone has different preferences and needs. If you're open to trying an alternative pad, our Clean & Secure line does not contain charcoal. Our overall goal is to provide you with a product that is safe, comfortable, and secure. If you’re open to sharing more about your experience, we would like to chat and help find a solution together.

So leaky! Not for those with heavy flow!
2 out of 5 stars
Thumbs down graphic, would not recommend
Hi - 3 months ago, Verified purchaser
These are nice and thin and a good length, but not for a heavy flow at all! Best for light flow or use with tampons, because one gush and it'll start to leak if you're standing up or sitting in the wrong position. I love how comfortable they are, but they are not absorbent enough for the average bleeder. The wings are also good because they don't pull and tear and partially stay stuck to undies like always did(why I changed). But it pools and drips, I'm not confident in wearing these out. Also the box design is a nice idea, but it never opens properly and is hard to close.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These U by Kotex pads are thin, as promised, but very absorbent. They are long and suitable for overnight use. They come with wings, which is a must for me to protect against leakage. I found them to be comfortable. I would recommend.

People were right. Leak from sides don't absorb AT ALL

People are right. They did change it. I wanted to give this a try even with all the bad reviews everywhere and I kid you not: twice in a day I leaked from the sides. At one point it literally went down my leg, even when I was wearing black shorts. It doesn't absorb ANYTHING. It just goes right to the side. The first day mine was very light and it handled it. But as soon as it becomes normal to heavy watch out. What a waste of money I used to love these because of how soft they were compared to the other brand *ahem always. They're much softer too bad they just don't do the job AT ALL. Have to start looking for a different brand.
