Your tampon box probably doesn't have an ingredients list but, if they had to print it on, it would go something like this:
Rayon, polyester, viscose, chlorine bleach, traces of dioxin, cyanazine, dicofol, naled, propargite, triluralin, artificial colours, adhesives, polyethylene, polypropylene and propylene glycol....a chemical soup….with contaminants linked to hormonal disruption, cancer, birth defects, dryness, and infertility.
We've decided not to touch them with a barge pole. (And if this freaks you out, you might not want to know there’s the equivalent of four plastic bags in a high street sanitary pad…..) No real surprise then that one thing has made its way onto the high street box – “Attention! Tampons are associated with Toxic Shock syndrome (TSS)”. But you see, it’s time to call bull on that. Because an organic cotton tampon has never, not once, been associated with TSS.
We're switching to 100% organic cotton, biodegradable tampons. Join us. (P.s. We ship for free and always make sure your tampons arrive before your period, every period, regardless of your cycle. Promise.) #ohneit
