These organic cotton tampons from Natracare come individually wrapped in TCF (totally chlorine free) paper and come with a TCF cardboard applicator to assist with insertion.
Applicator tampons are particularly handy when you are out-and-about and hand-wash facilities aren't inside the cubicle. They are also helpful for younger women who have just started their periods.
Natracare regular applicator tampons provide safe and comfortable period protection for normal flow and those who have not yet given birth.
Background Information - Conventional Tampons...
Many women are unaware that rayon and rayon-cotton blends are widely used in the manufacture of tampons.
Rayon is commonly chlorine-bleached, and is a highly absorbent fibre which rapidly absorbs menstrual blood, but at the same time can also dry out the natural protective mucous lining of the vagina. The mix of fibres in conventional tampons means that very often fibres are left behind in the vagina.
