Features I love
I absolutely love the elastic storage band on the back of the Nora pads. I always store my clean and used pads compactly folded up. With other pad brands this is achieved by securing the wing poppers however with the Nora range simply fold your pad and slip over the elastic band to secure the pad, why did no one ever think of this before!

How many pads do I need?
As a general guide for a:
- short and light cycle 6 daytime and 3 night time
- Average length and flow 10 day pads and 4-5 night pads
- Longer and heavier cycles 15 day pads and 6-7 night time pads.
How To Wash Cloth Pads
Washing reusable cloth pads in the washing machine is the most effective way to care for your pads
Here is a basic guide to wash pads:
- When you remove your used pads rinse them thoroughly with cold water till the water runs clear. You can gently rub them to help remove as much blood as possible.
- Either pop them in your normal washing with other clothes or store them in a wet bag until wash day.
- Wash on a cold wash at either 30 or 40deg. You can use your normal detergent but avoid fabric softener.
Most companies will advise you to avoid harsh chemicals, fabric conditioner and tumble drying, as eventually it will lead to a shorter life span and issues with performance.
How To Dry Reusable Sanitary Pads
Ideally air dry your cloth sanitary pads and avoid using a tumble dryer. This helps to keep your reusable pads in better condition and is more environmentally friendly. A “sock” airer is ideal for drying them and can be hung inside in winter for quick drying. Most pads will easily dry overnight. Some pads can be tumble-dried, but this should be done on low and is best avoided as tumble drying can shrink some fabrics and remove fibres (that’s what the fluff is in the filter.)
How long will my pads last until I need to buy more to replace them?
As a general rule our suppliers expect their pads to last 5-10 years with average wear.

Ive purchased few different panty liners just to try. This one is not amongst my favorites from start. Its narrow wings means that underwear with wider croatch is a struggle. It doesnt stay in place for me and not very comfy.

These have a lovely pattern and wash well. I use these in place of a daily liner, so I don’t need a lot of absorption, but they do the job just fine. My only criticism is that they are a bit short, it would be great if they came in the same light absorption but in a longer optional size; otherwise you have to buy the heavy flow ones to get the longer size, which I don’t need.

Lovely Product but too small! 10 September 2020 | Jacqui
Bought for small bladder leaks, I found the pad to be too small and neat. For peace of mind I prefer a longer pad. Pads were well made in lovely fabrics. These might be better suited to a teen. Just not for me I'm afraid.
