It is easy to apply and offers great absorbency, which makes it reliable for heavier flow days. The smooth applicator makes insertion comfortable, and it stays in place well throughout the day. It’s one of those products you don’t have to overthink — it just works.

If you asked me to pick my favorite period product, this is it. They are the most comfortable fitting tampons, and they absorb well. They come in a variety of sizes- I like to get the big packs for a better value for my money

Do not buy these. When I used Cora or other cotton organic tampons, I have no odor. But when I use these I smell terrible. There is some kind of chemical or material that mixes with body fluids and makes you smell. I tried an organic and the tampax during the same week and could tell the difference.

This product absorbs well, the design could be a little better. When using the product you feel good and comfortable. It protects against leaks quite well, but if your period is heavy, it’s better to change it more often.

When I say I use nothing else, I mean I use nothing else, rinse I discovered Tampax, I’ve never gone back, as someone who hates wearing undies or clothes in general, I just slide these in and forget I was ever bleeding, no restricting underwear, just comfortable fresh air, no odor and doesn’t leak

I love this combo pack it manages my heavy periods. I used to use the regular/super/super plus trio pack however since I have started a new birth control that makes my periods heavier I’m grateful tampax makes this trio pack as I’m not sure what I would’ve done without while trying to figure out my new flow
Some minimal leaking

So far this is my favorite super tampon, although I will say, at times I will experience some leaking although the tampon itself is not full. I prefer this applicator as it is easy to use and comfortable. If you have a heavy flow or do any sort of sports or jogging expect some possible leaking. I sometimes will use a thin liner under in case it doesn't catch everything.
These are not leak proof

I purchased the regular and super tampons and neither are leak proof. I have to change that super one every 2 hours because they don’t offer much absorbency. I wanted to try them because I thought Tampax would be great BUT the Equate tampons, which are cheaper, offer better protection. I used these years ago when the absorbency is better but I guess quality has gone down drastically.

NO GRIP FOR INSERTION

I will not be buying these again. The tampons work well enough for their purpose, which is the only reason I give 2 stars. Inserting these is very difficult. The place you hold while pushing the long end inwards to insert has no grip. The raised portion that looks like a “O” in the pic, that is supposed to provide a grip to hold onto while inserting is way too flat and you end up with fingers slipping in and making a mess. My fingernails and fingertips cannot get a good grip, and I keep my nails to maybe 1/4” in length. Who created this design?? Men?? Do better Tampax!
1 reply from Customer Care team - 6 months ago
We're sorry you're finding the Tampax Pearl applicators difficult for you to grip, Jenn, and that isn't at all the experience we want you to have. A lot of thought goes into the design of our products, and your feedback on this is being shared with our team. Another Tampax version you may like to try is our Radiant tampons which feature an indented textured grip for easy, comfortable placement. We'd like to further help you with this, and ask that you please give us a call at 1-800-523-0014 from 9AM — 6PM EST Monday – Friday.

These are my favorite of the tanpax brands because the soft plastic applicators don't hurt and they don't have a steong scent to them. I like how easy they are to spot on an aisle full of different brands and types

Work pretty good. It has different levels for absorbency. I usually use super for first few days. It is easy to use, keep that area dry, no leak. It makes me feel more confident during the period.

I have tried Tampax's Pearl Super tampons for several menstrual cycles and, in my experience, they offer solid and reliable protection. What I like most about them is their applicator. It is made of a soft material and has a texture that makes insertion much easier, making the process much more comfortable and less complicated, even on the heaviest days. The shape of the tampon is well designed to expand evenly, which gives me a sense of security and reduces the risk of leakage. The absorption is quite efficient; I can be calm for several hours without having to worry about frequent changes, something I value a lot on busy days. The material is soft to the touch, which contributes to a more comfortable experience compared to other tampons I have used in the past, which can sometimes feel rough or uncomfortable. In addition, the packaging is practical and discreet, which is a plus. Pearl Super tampons from Tampax have been a very satisfactory option for me. They offer an effective combination of comfort, absorption and ease of use, and I would recommend them to anyone looking for reliable protection during their menstrual period.

i had put a tampon in and about 10 minutes later when i started walking around it started to feel a little ittriated like i could feel it when i would take a step so i went to go check what was going on i realized it was built sideways.😐 the literal tampon string was tied around the actual tampon its self. i was very confused because i didn’t have any trouble getting it inserted out of the tube but also how in the heck does that happen? i have always used tampax but now im just a little worried it may happen again
