Stick to the regular ones
I was very disappointed with this product. While the applicator was way nicer to use the tampon was less effective than the regular Tampax with the cardboard applicator.
Finally!
As a woman in my mid forties, my periods are heavy and not very fun. Not that any period is! I’ve always struggled with a tampon that doesn’t leak through within 2 hours. Not anymore. The Tampax Ultra gives me 6 hours on my heaviest days, and up to 8 on lighter days. More stores need to carry this option.
Dont recommend
The packaging itself is great but the tampon alone is rock hard, hurts going in and coming out. It honestly feels like it gets harder the more it gets filled and doesnt last longer then 2 hours for medium flow,so i do not recommend getting
Piece of Mind for Very Heavy Days
Ever since the fem-hy industry decreased the absorbancy levels of tampons, I have had to use them more frequently, and/or with unpredictable results. I was very pleasantly surprised to find the Ultra absorbancy at Shoppers Drug Mart, and decided to give them a try. I have PCOS, and this, combined with my age, have resulted in very heavy and/or inconsistent flows. On my very heaviest days, the comfort and absorbancy is appreciated. They are great overnight, and I have far fewer leaks than when using Super Plus absorbancy. I can say that the only negative is that I would prefer not to use a (non-biodegradable) plastic applicator. I like the comfort of the plastic, but wish it could be made from environmentally-friendly or biodegradable material. They are also not widely available, so this would help to boost sales, and allow for better pricing.
So glad they are back!
For many years the ultra tampons were not available in Canada. I have been buying them every time I go to the USA. My husband always gives me a funny look. So happy that I saw them at Shoppers the other day! Now I don’t have to save them for the super duper heavy flow days. These are fantastic and they are the only tampons that allow me to function somewhat normally on day two of my period.
Great product
Tampax is the only tampon brand I trust. The pearl variety is great for leak protection, and the fact that they now offer ultra absorbency is amazing!
I wish they offered an actual variety pack cause then I wouldn't look like a weirdo (buying 4-5 boxes of tampons at a time) when I'm just trying to have a few of each absorbency.
These are the best for extra heavy flow.
Tampax pearl ultra are the only tampons i have found to work when my flow is extra heavy. Every other brand I have tried has left me having to change my pajamas in the middle of the night. I will definitely be purchasing these again.
Indispensable
Tampax pearl is the best I ever use . It doesnt leak . And with his applicator it's making it very easy to applicate. I recommand this product for every woman.
The best of the bunch! So easy to insert! Minimum to no leakage, stays in place comfortably. I have tried a genetic store brand and quickly went back to Tampax. Will be using these until menopause!
I am a very loyal customer of the Tampax brand. Tampax is a very good product it works very well it's good in absorption. I have no worries when I'm out and about I know it gets the job done and it fit's comfortably Applicator is smooth I recommend this to anyone.
