Every month, like clockwork, my aunt Flo arrives at the door of my bathroom: scarlet red and ready to snuggle for the next week. I love her but sometimes, well, she can be a bit much. I fear not, I’ve been sporting Revol Cares silky smooth underwear to get me know even the bloodiest of situations.
Many women are discovering the harmful chemicals in pads and tampons, along with the unjust period tax that gets added onto any menstrual product. Cut all of that out with Revol Care’s period underwear, a toxin-free, ethically made, and environmentally sustainable option for all bodies. Founded by Sara Jonsdottir and her husband Mayo, they set out to make underwear that will last all cycle long. Only three materials go into every pair: bamboo, spandex, and organic cotton. This blend offers stretch, breathability, and most importantly, antimicrobial properties. Plus, these panties can last for up to 3-4 years! Simply rinse with cool water once done wearing, throw it in the laundry, and air dry or tumble on low heat. Then wear it again and again!
On my heaviest days (and nights) I have the Charlie underwear on as I cuddle my dogs and pint of ice cream. Charlie, a level ultra undie, is in a shortie shape (think cheer shorts from middle school) and is uber-flattering on the body. Any bloating gets smoothed down with its high waisted design, making it a lovely choice for dresses (which, during the first days of my period, I can be found in).
For slightly less bloody days I slip into Remi, a super plus pair that keeps me as secure and leak-free as Charlie.
For regular flow days, you’ll find me lounging in Margo undies and a sports bra. A mid-rise bikini style, it gives a flirty and cheeky look to my bum. Who says you can’t be cute while bleeding?
Revol Cares can be found in sizes XS to 7X, making it a company where everybody can find their perfect fit. You can find them in stores across Canada or order online, here. May your period be smooth sailing with Revol Cares!
