Dryness, discomfort and irritation can be a common problem with fragranced tampons. To help you stay safe from these, Tampax has designed Protective Skirt Regular Tampons, which are Perfume Free. Sanitary pads can get messy and smelly if worn for a long time. Ideal for absorbing light to medium flow, these tampons are another option to feel protected during period days and continue normally with the other activities of the day. They come with a cardboard applicator to ease the process of insertion. The string attached at the bottom makes the removal convenient.
