Just okay
I didn’t like these as well as just the original standard always pads. Honestly, I was attracted to the packaging and that they’re from the always pure line. I don’t feel like they’re as comfortable or absorbent as other always products.

Finally, a Breathable, Non-Synthetic Option That Actually Works!
I’ve finally found a pad that doesn't feel like plastic! I love that these are Pure Cotton—it’s so much better for your body than the synthetic materials in other brands. Despite being incredibly thin and comfortable, the FlexFoam technology is impressively absorbent. They keep me feeling dry and secure all day without the bulk. If you have sensitive skin or just prefer a cleaner, more natural feel, these are a 10/10.

9/10 - ALWAYS PLEASE READ THIS
I love these and use the sizes 1-3 depending on the day. The ONLY issue is the way to tell the sizes apart is hidden in the design and not in the same spot on all individual pads so I have to really search hard for the number when I pull them out of my purse. PLEASE make the numbers/sizes easier to see (like Kotex does with the liners- different color words for various sizes/styles). I will be forever grateful.

Bad shape leaks
I really like the flex foam. But - why is the pad so skinny and short in the front? If I reposition the pad more forward, then the wings don't fit correctly. It literally causes stains in the front area.

Great experience so far with reasonable price
These pads are soft, breathable, and gentle on sensitive skin. The pure cotton top layer feels natural and reduces irritation, making them great for those with skin sensitivities. Size 3 provides reliable coverage for heavier flow days, and the wings keep the pad securely in place. Absorption is solid, though it may not be the best for overnight use if your flow is very heavy. Overall, a great option for comfort and skin-friendliness.

They Fall Apart
I love Always flexfoam and have used them for years. I was happy to see a pure cotton version and decided to try them out, but I will not buy them again. They fall apart quickly and leave white fuzz everywhere - all over your underwear and stuck to your skin. I'll finish the box I have so I don't waste them, but finishing them can't come soon enough.

Pure cotton is the way to go
My favorite pads ever! Yes they are long pads and they make me feel secure. They are leak proof especially on the heavier days. They absorb great and are breathable.

These are the best pads I’ve ever tried!!
They are so comfy! They definitely hold and no leaks! I tried the size 1 with wings and I’m in love!! Pure cotton makes me feel like I’m not exposing my precious area with perfumes or plastics! My new pad!!

Best out there
These pads felt like a cloud on my private. I’ve had this pad on for a good year. Yes it stinks but it’s never leaked. I highly highly highly recommend. If you if you don’t wanna buy pads over and over, just keep the same one on. This brand is very good.

*BEWARE* Gave me a chemical burn
I am not sure if there is a change since I’ve last tried these years ago but they gave me a chemical burn. Beware anyone with sensitive skin.

These are so soft. I don’t use them much for really heavy days but for lighter days they are so comfortable. I keep these in the rotation for sure

Greenwashing and leaks
Greenwashed. Only the top is cotton. The rest is plastic. Not as healthy as advertised. Also it twists and curls when wearing increasing the chance of spillage
1 reply from Always team - 2 years ago
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us! There's nothing more important to us than the quality of our products, which is why they go through strict quality checks! Always Pure Cotton Extra Heavy FlexFoam pads are free of dyes, fragrances, and chlorine bleaching. Our pure cotton top layer is sourced from premium cotton that makes up less than 1% of the world’s supply, meeting strict ingredient and processing requirements. The FlexFoam core is ten times drier than the leading pad brand with a cotton top layer, while the super absorbent holes help you stay clean throughout the day. We designed these pads with an adhesive that helps keep them in place. A good bond should form after removing the release paper and pressing the pad and wings firmly into your underwear. We're so sorry that wasn't the case with your recent purchase. With your satisfaction and protection meaning everything to us, we'd like to learn more about your experience and help you find the best product to meet your personalized needs. When you have a chance, please give us a call at (800) 888-3115, 9 am-6 pm EST, Monday-Friday.
