Wear & Care
With the proper care your reusable sanitary pads can last for years, making it a more sustainable and wallet-friendly option compared to disposable period products. Washing and drying Eco Lily period pads and panty liners is easy when you know-how.
Here are our top washing and drying tips:
We recommend washing your pads before first time use. This helps to activate the absorbency of the fibers.
1. Rinse your pads in cold water or leave to soak overnight to prevent staining.
2. Add them to your 30°C or 40°C machine wash with normal detergent. Or wash them by hand with warm water and soap. Avoid fabric conditioners as it reduces the absorbency of the material.
3. Stretch the pads back into shape if required, and air dry wherever you like. Do not tumble dry on high heat as this may cause shrinkage. Hang to dry works best!
