TLDR Review: U by Kotex Balance Ultra Thin Pads
Published: September 4th, 2024
Pros
- •Lasts longer than previous products, so you won't be scrambling for replacements every hot minute.
- •As comfortable and thin as your patience on a bad day, but without the discomfort.
- •Highly absorbent, despite thinness - it's like a magic trick for your underwear.
- •Secure adhesive strips with handy side flaps mean these pads aren't going anywhere, unlike your ex.
- •Stays in place and controls odors, so you can strut your stuff without a worry.
- •Suitable for heavy bleeding, because it's the 21st century, and we don't have time for leaks.
- •Charcoal feature reduces smell, making you a walking, breathable bouquet.
- •Thin and does not bunch up in underwear, keeping your silhouette sleeker than a shadow.
- •Not too hot and breathable, offering comfort that's as refreshing as a cold drink on a summer day.
Cons
- •More expensive than other brands, making your wallet a little lighter.
- •Pad can come off wrapping when unwrapping, like a bad peel-off mask experience.
- •Adhesive on wings can be ruined if touched, requiring the finesse of a bomb disarmer.
- •Product caused allergic reaction for some, proving that it's not one-size-fits-all.
- •However, it is narrow and does not cover the crotch area of the panties, leaving room for potential mishaps.
- •Spills from the sides overnight, because who doesn't love a midnight surprise?
- •May not meet expectations after marketing and packaging, much like that flashy but disappointing blockbuster.
Bottom Line
While these pads bring some impressive features to the table, like James Bond stealth and a comfort that could rival your favorite sweatpants, they do come with a higher price tag and a few quirks. If your skin tends to throw a fit at new products or you're looking for a wider wingman, you might want to shop around.
