I really liked the length and the absorption but definitely I'm not a big fan on the glue of the pads, like it doesn't stay where it needs to stay.
Not for sensitive skin

ive never reviewed anything but i have to on these. the old kind that didnt have the charcoal lining were great. but ever since they changed theyve been giving me like pimples and its itchy and painful. i tried an "organic" brand and had no problems and when i put one of these on since its all i had, the pimples came back so i knew its these. maybe im allergic idk but the charcoal lining is a marketing scheme. you dont smell. theres no need for this change in these. please release a charcoal free version!!!
1 reply from U by Kotex Expert team - 20 days ago
Thank you for taking the time to share your review, Lily. We’re disappointed to hear about your experience as your comfort and well-being are our top priorities! The charcoal in our Balance pads is 100% plant-based ingredient that can help neutralize odors without harsh ingredients while still offering comfortable protection. However, we understand everyone has different needs. If you're open to trying an alternative pad, our Clean & Secure line does not contain charcoal…we would recommend giving these a try. Since we design our products to ensure what you're describing is unlikely to occur, we’d like to learn more and see how we can help. Please give us a call at 1-877-485-6839 Monday–Friday from 8am-5pm CT when you have a moment, we’re eager to assist. Thanks!
This Product STINKS! JUST LIKE THE IDEA OF CHARCOAL IN PADS!

WHY DID YOU YOU ADD SOMETHING SO UNNECESSARY LIKE CHARCOAL TO A PERFECTLY GOOD PRODUCT? I have Kotex products for more than 15 years of my life and I am only in my early 30's right now. Never using your products again. I got such a bad rash after using these. Be kind to your customers, Kotex! Do you think menstrual periods stink? Thanks for perpetuating stigma around periods and reinforcing the notion that periods are "smelly" and gross. I'll never use another Kotex product. Only a man could have developed this garbage!

Hi Scarlett Charlotte, we'll be sure to pass your feedback along to our team regarding the charcoal in our Balance pads. The charcoal is a 100% plant-based ingredient that is safe on skin and can help neutralize odors without harsh ingredients while still offering comfortable protection. However, we understand everyone has different preferences and needs. If you're open to trying an alternative pad, our Clean & Secure line does not contain charcoal. Our overall goal is to provide you with a product that is safe, comfortable, and secure. If you’re open to sharing more about your experience, we would like to chat and help find a solution together. Please call us at 1-877-485-6839 Monday–Friday from 8am-5pm CT. Thanks again for taking the time to share.
So leaky! Not for those with heavy flow!
2 out of 5 stars
Thumbs down graphic, would not recommend
Hi - 2 months ago, Verified purchaser
These are nice and thin and a good length, but not for a heavy flow at all! Best for light flow or use with tampons, because one gush and it'll start to leak if you're standing up or sitting in the wrong position. I love how comfortable they are, but they are not absorbent enough for the average bleeder. The wings are also good because they don't pull and tear and partially stay stuck to undies like always did(why I changed). But it pools and drips, I'm not confident in wearing these out. Also the box design is a nice idea, but it never opens properly and is hard to close.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These U by Kotex pads are thin, as promised, but very absorbent. They are long and suitable for overnight use. They come with wings, which is a must for me to protect against leakage. I found them to be comfortable. I would recommend.

People were right. Leak from sides don't absorb AT ALL

People are right. They did change it. I wanted to give this a try even with all the bad reviews everywhere and I kid you not: twice in a day I leaked from the sides. At one point it literally went down my leg, even when I was wearing black shorts. It doesn't absorb ANYTHING. It just goes right to the side. The first day mine was very light and it handled it. But as soon as it becomes normal to heavy watch out. What a waste of money I used to love these because of how soft they were compared to the other brand *ahem always. They're much softer too bad they just don't do the job AT ALL. Have to start looking for a different brand.

Love these pads! Comfortable to wear compared to other brands. Like the tab attached wings, makes them more movable in placement on underwear compared to other brands.

Me - 8 months ago, Verified purchaser
The absorbency is terrible. I have a very heavy flow one day out of each cycle, and these pads cannot handle it! Within an hour I feel like I'm sitting in a puddle. The old ones may have been thick but at least they worked. I wish they would bring back the old style. The only reason I buy these is because they are one of the few brands I'm not allergic to. Come on kotex! You can do better than this!

Hey girl, this is NOT how we want your experience with our pads to go, so we're disappointed to hear this! Given what you described, you might be interested in trying our Clean & Secure Overnight Maxi Pads for your heaviest days. You can find more info on our website. We hope this helps!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I only use pads because of some issues & I was excited to try with the charcoal but I wasn't impressed. Not sure why but they are super stiff, not good for night, & they're too short to be considered overnight in my opinion. The charcoal was ok but not a huge difference. My dollar store pads work better.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They're very thin and comfortable, perfect size for overnight wear. I don't find them as absorbent as my usual brand so the prospect of leaks is a reality. The charcoal strip is strange to me. Not sure it will really do anything to help control odor but we'll see with further testing.
