Extra-heavy absorbency with a quick-dry surface for extended protection

The Solution for Postpartum Recovery & Extra-Heavy Protection

SIZE 6 | LENGTH: 36 CM | ABSORBENCY: UP TO 200 ML

Designed for postpartum recovery and extra-heavy flow, GENTLE DAY® Postpartum Pads provide maximum absorbency, secure leak protection, and exceptional comfort when your skin needs extra care.

GENTLE DAY® are the only patented pads and pantyliners with an anion strip. Made with breathable, skin-friendly materials, free from fragrances, dyes, and lotions.

Cotton-soft feel and lasting dryness. The SecurDry™ top sheet feels as soft as cotton, but unlike cotton, it quickly channels liquid into the core to keep you feeling dry and prevent sticking to the skin.

Maximum Leak Protection. The extra-long 36 cm design features an ultra-absorbent core, leak-guard side walls, a wider back panel, and a secure 4-wing system with two side wings and two back wings for reliable day and overnight protection.

Long-Lasting Freshness. FAR-IR Anion Strip™ helps reduce odour and inhibit bacterial growth within the pad, supporting a fresher feeling and extra confidence throughout the day.

Clean and Gentle on Sensitive Skin. Hypoallergenic, Dermatest® EXCELLENT rated, and OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified.

ABOUT FAR-IR ANION TECHNOLOGY

We believe advanced science should work in harmony with your body. That is why every pad features our patented FAR-IR Anion Strip™— a functional mineral strip activated by body heat and moisture to support odour control, freshness, skin comfort, and menstrual comfort.

How it works:
Functional Textile Layer: Embedded within the pad core, the strip works from inside the pad to help neutralise odours and maintain freshness.

Passive Activation:
Activated naturally by body heat and moisture, without any external energy source.

Mineral-Powered:
Contains tourmaline minerals that generate negative ions and far-infrared energy when exposed to heat and moisture.

Antibacterial Support:
Silver ions help inhibit bacterial growth within the pad or liner.

Soothing Menstrual Comfort:
FAR-IR minerals reflect body heat and may support local microcirculation, helping ease pelvic tension and menstrual discomfort.

Independently tested:
The FAR-IR Anion Strip™ was independently tested and shown to inhibit Staphylococcus aureus by 99% (GB/T 20944.3-2008) and reduce ammonia odour by 54% over two hours (JTETC Deodorant Performance Test).

Leak proof

The pads are long enough to ensure the is no leakage. It holds up for a long time without an awful smell.

Please increase the pads to 10 atleast, 6 is not enough will be able to change the pad twice a day. One a day is doable is just that some of us are hygiene freaks

Love this brand and what they stand for.

I tried their products before, then tried others and ultimately came back to them. Price point, quality, and the fact that you can wear one for 8+ hours means it’s light on your pocket even in your heavy days.

Absorbent

Long enough but filled up very fast for me. I wouldn't blame it thought because my flow is abnormally have.

Will start medication to normalize the flow then use them again which I think will then give me a true indication of how absorbent they are.
