Natracare Organic & Natural Feminine Hygiene Review

Natracare (www.natracare.com), providing organic hygiene products for over 25 years, offers organic wipes for everything. Most wipes contain harsh chemicals and perfumes that our skin doesn’t love. Natracare’s products are made from 100% cotton cloth and organic essential oils that leave your skin silky smooth.

• Organic Baby Wipes: Why? 100% cotton baby wipes are infused with organic essential oils of chamomile, apricot, sweet almond oil and natural plant extracts. Leaves the skin refreshed and soft without the use of detergents.

• Organic Cleansing Make Up Removal Wipes: Why? The strong organic cotton cloth is gentle but effective and can remove everything from lipstick to waterproof mascara. The natural oils clean your face and keep it smooth. 

• Intimate Wipes: Why? Yes, these are amazing for travel!  100% cotton cloths are gentle and infused with organic essential oils and natural plant extracts. This formula is free of alcohol and detergents making your daily intimate hygiene easy and effective.  

How about organic tampons? Why should you choose organic tampons?

• Conventional pads and tampons contain not only bleached cotton, a process that creates dioxins (carcinogenic), but also regular cotton that has been chemically treated (i.e. pesticides). It’s these chemicals that we place inside our bodies every month. 
• The natural choice - Natracare’s line of high quality organic and natural feminine hygiene products, which are chlorine free, plastic free and made from biodegradable materials. Their pads and tampons are made from 100% certified organic cotton and don’t use rayon, plastics or dyes. No chemicals here! 

Our Thoughts

Our world overuses products with an insane amount of chemicals in them. What we put into and onto our bodies is essential to our health and women often don't think twice about tampons during that time of the month. We're just used to using them without question. You really have to think of the long-term repercussions of using chemicals inside your most delicate lady bits. It affects your health and reproductive health too. There are many natural options that are better than conventional tampons and Natracare is one of them!

Natracare's tampons look and feel just like your normal store-bought tampons that you're familiar with. There's not a learning curve here as they are used and inserted just like you always have. The important factor is that it's better for your body. There aren't chemicals that are going to harm you and you can rest assure your body is being taken care of. These fit exactly the same and there are different sizes depending on your needs. They worked perfectly and there are also pads that you can purchase from them too if that is the route you like to go. Not only do they have the tampons, but there are many items on their website that features organic care for our bodies and babies too!

Lola 100% Natural Cotton Tampons

No one likes to talk about their period, let alone the method we choose to control it. However, it's an important topic. We worry about the foods we put into our bodies. We exercise to stay healthy and take vitamins. So many people from the Millennials and Generation X are focused on all natural products like essential oils and organic food.  Shouldn't we also be concerned about what we're using to control our monthly cycles?  That's where Lola comes in. They offer a monthly subscription service that will send 100% Natural Cotton Tampons right to your door.

I have been thinking about alternate sanitary products for a long time. I considered the cups I keep seeing around, but that was just a little too messy for me. I have always preferred tampons because I felt like they were more sanitary, but I worried about the artificial fibers that might be in them and the damage they can cause to my body. With Lola, I won't have to worry. Their tampons are made using only 100% natural cotton. Plus, they glide in easily, and control even the heaviest flow. There is no leakage, and they are very comfortable. However, the most important factor to me is that I know I'm using natural cotton, as pure as it was when it was picked. This makes me feel like I'm doing the best thing for my body.

Lola Tampons are available in both regular and super size varieties, and you can select your assortment according to your personal needs. The boxes are discretely packaged and you can arrange your shipment to come right to your door, so you won't have to blush if a cute guy is checking you out at the pharmacy,  One box is usually $18, but right now, you can get your first two boxes for only $9 each! Give yourself piece of mind with what you put into your body--all the parts of it! Check out Lola today.
