Little Lambs Panty Liners are a budget friendly reusable pad ideal for daily protection or for light menstrual flow days.
The pads are made of bamboo with a microfleece top layer to keep you feeling dry. They come in a variety of colours which is really helpful if you keep each size of pad in different colours so you can grab the size you need quickly.
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.

Does the job but too wide for my sports briefs so folded up and became a bit uncomfortable after an hour or so of walking.

Soft and wash brilliantly 17 February 2021 | Helen
Great liner; super soft and sits well - doesn’t move. Have washed several times and they’ve come out perfectly each time.
Would recommend.

Lovely and soft. Stays in place. SO much nicer to use than disposable plastic ones that can stick.
Was very unsure about making the change, but it really is lovely to use and no big deal! Won’t be going back.
Good for those litter days, or when you just need a little something.
