Just discovered your channel and you’re such a positive and eloquent person and funny 😄 so easy to listen to, your videos are also top quality !
Aw thank you!xax
Love this video - thank you for making it! I've been thinking a lot about reusable period products but have felt a bit nervous about where to start, so this was really helpful. I'd definitely appreciate a more in-depth video about using these please! And looking forward to more videos about things like reusable sanitary towels, as they're another option I'm considering xx
Ah this is brilliant! Okie dokie - I’m on it, stay tuned 😊💕xax
Thank you for looking into this! I for sure would be interested in knowing more about washing etc.

Ah Lauren, THANK YOU! I'm so glad it was helpful :) :) :) xax
A much awaited video. Thank you so much for all your help in choosing period pants. I can’t wait for my Modibodis to arrive (can’t believe I’m saying this 😂) so I can feel liberated and do my bit for the environment. BTW, I’d love to see a vid on washing and caring for your pants 💕xx
I feel exactly the same each time my period comes around haha! 😊😂 it’s a much better feeling than dreading it!xax
Been waiting for this video! Thank you!
It's a hot topic on my channels right now haha! :) xax

Thank you so much Amy! :) Really glad you liked it!!! And it's MAC So Chaud :) xax

This was so informative! Thank you, just used your modibodi code. Can't wait for them to arrive now 😊
I'm so glad!!! Hope you love them :) xax
Fantastic video. You have converted me & I had my first period in my Modibodi period pants recently, it was all good & nothing to worry about. I’m going to now buy some for my teenage daughter to use so thank you 🙏🏼 😘
I’m so glad! 😊💕 really happy they worked for you! I’m a total convert too xax

Love this video! Thank you for being so honest x
You’re so welcome 😊💕xax
Thank you for this video as it’s been a great help and I already have a few pairs of period pants from cheeky wipes online and I really love them.
I’m so glad this helped 😊💕xax
I have to agree with you on Modibdi they are amazing! 😍 I was a WUKA WEAR girl previously as you know but i was influenced to try two light pairs by Beth Sandland & yourself! So so comfortable & I LOVE the colours! 🌟 I have green & blue! Plus their sizing is fab I love their high waisted ones 💫
Would love to try other pairs from different ranges and brands.
Thanks so so much for talking about this Amelia it is much needed! 💛🌟 xoxo
They’re brilliant aren’t they 😊💕xax
Been waiting for this one xx
Hope you enjoy Natalie :) xax
Absolutely great reviews! Thank you ♥️
You're SO welcome Julie :) xax
Watching your earlier vlog you inspired me to come off my pill after 10 years to see how my body would react. I have a daughter so the reason isn’t to get pregnant. I have been out of the loop for so long as I never had a period on Cerazette and I didn’t even know that menstrual cups or period pants existed!!! I’m still waiting on my first period but you have provided great information and reassurance around alternatives during our period so thank you!!!
Aw this is great Emma! The pill can be a fabulous option for so many menstruators but it’s been incredibly liberating coming off for me. Realising that I was shepherded onto it for so long and for what? No real reason for me personally, so it’s nice being free 😊💕 any questions just ask away!xax
Thanks doll! I've only just heard about period pants so this was really helpful! 😊
You’re welcome 🥰🤗
Super helpful, I wish more influencers were like you :) will definitely look into these. B x
Ah Becky, thank you :) xax
Really helpful - made a purchase based off this video! Thank you x
Aw yay! I’m so glad it helped 😊💕xax
Loved this, very informative, new sub ❤️
Aw yay ☺️
Thank you this is so helpful! 💗 love your videos!
You’re so welcome lovely 😊 xax
I have these Modibody ones and can vouch for how good they are - honestly the dream!
fab aren’t they!xax
I would love to see a video on washing period pants and period cups! x
Okie dokie 😊💕😊💕xax
And yes please for the Washing video etc!!! The more the merrier! Xoxo
Okie dokie 😊xax
modibodi should make you a brand ambassador! - I mean "as soft a mouse's ear"? I'm completely sold! : ) ❤️
Haha they did actually email me after this video to do some work together - how cool is that!xax
thx for your informative vid i am wanting to invest in period underwear but am deciding on which brand to try based on reviews, and your video has helped x
I’m so glad it helped 😊😊😊xax
Thank you Amelia! So helpful.
You’re so welcome 😊💕😊💕xax
Super useful video and packed with helpful informational as usual 👍🏻😊 I’ve been a cup user for years but I never knew much about period pants but I think I’ll end up getting some now I’ve seen this to catch the odd leak. Also love the way you pronounce ‘thong’ 😂😅
They're a fab combo with a cup! You would only need a light-moderate flow too if it's just for catching leaks :) xax
So informative. Thankyou for that! 💞
You’re so welcome!!!xax
Love this video! I would say Modibodi’s have been amazing for me, however after just 2 cycles the waistband detached from the knickers. That was obviously really disappointing at £20 a pair & Modibodi were really reluctant to give me a refund/send a replacement as the warranty on them is only 6 months. Just thought it was worth noting-great pants not so great customer service.
This is such a shame - would they still not be in warranty after 2 months? I've been using mine for about 6-7 months now and they're still all as good as new so I wonder if you did just get a bad pair - they should sort that xax
I am so pleased Modi Bodi is the best for you because I just bought 11 pairs, I bought 4 to start of then added the rest. Light to overnight ranges to cover period days. Phew! My second period of using them, and Im so pleased with them.
They’re a breeze aren’t they!!!! Flipping LOVE them! 💕xax
Did you do a vlog on how to wash them? Do you rinse then wash at 30C? So far, washing them that way is okay? Thanks!
I chose thinx because I love their mission I know that they work well, they are a local brand for me, they are the original creators of period panties and they are always listening to what their customers are asking for! Definitely try to support the original inventors of the product if you can afford it! They are a wonderful company.
That’s great! 🥰 wish they didn’t slap on such huge fees for shipping them over here! Hopefully they’ll bring over more styles soon!xax
Highly recommend combining period pants with menstrual cups. I was a bit sceptical regards the cup as I hate tampons as I can never get it to sit right and I'm really petite so thought the cup looked huge. But I tried the organicup mini and it's life changing on my 6th month of using it and would never go back!
It’s a winning combo for me, especially on my heavy days! Love love love a cup - saalt is my fave 😊💕xax
I really want to try menstrual cups but how does that work for public bathrooms and the mess etc? Toilets at my work have separate sinks etc at the other side of the bathroom and then a row of toilets. Just wondering on how I’d go about cleaning the cup and my hands during the process of taking it out etc
Hi Loz, I have a video all about this and the differen't ways this can be done - check it out! Also as a side note after a year and a half of pants I now wear them totally alone without a cup. They have come on a long way since this video and modibodi do a pair that hold up to 50ml! xax
Loved this video. Would love a more in depth video xxx
On it 😊💕xax
I have modibodi and love Luna. Modibodi is amazing but I wear the love Luna moderate ones overnight and throughout the day on the second have of my period with no leaks. They are my favourite pairs x
Amazing 😍😍😍
I have some Thinx and Modibidi and I’m in agreement that they are the best thing!
Fab aren't they! xax
Thank you so much for this video, it was so helpful! I have just found your videos and am looking to try period pants out for the first time after coming off the pill. Was just looking at the Sainsbury's ones from your video and thought I'd look on m&s just incase. They sell some for £12 and have got buy 3 got a 4th free at the moment! Not sure what they'll be like but fingers crossed :)
You're very welcome lovely :) I've heard mixed reviews about the M&S ones and how well they last so do let us know! I also couldn't find their actual absorbency on the website anywhere which is always a bit of a worry - especially for those with a heavier flow because just saying 'high absorbency' isn't overly helpful! Hopefully they'll be able to be more specific for customers moving forward - it's fab to see so many brands hopping on the period pants train! They're a game changer :) xax
Deffinalty would like to see how you've washed them x
On it 😊💕xax
I’m a menstrual cup user and I love it, recently changed my Supper Jenny cup ( which I had for few years and it’s pretty stained) to Organi Cup and I think I like it even more!! I’d never change cups for anything they are simply the best invention for women ever 😄 I got two pairs of period pants which were on discount for key workers ( during covid) to try but I can’t remember what brand they were and there is no labels on them. I use them before I come on my period and at the very end . However with only two pairs it’s not enough as my period is not regular to exact same day 3-4 days vary from cycle to cycle therefore I’d like to have more. The price tho it’s scary !
Amazing! I’ve had mine for over two years now and they’re still good as new ☺️ expensive up front, cheaper in the long run 💕
Great video, I do want to make a change and the cup is not for me as uncomfortable using tampons. Be interested to see what you think about reusable pads. Never really occurred to me until recently all the waste that women's periods create. Also interested in the Washing etc of period pants. New subscriber and love watching your videos because you seem to radiate positivity and good vibes.
Aw thank you Melanie! 😊 reusable pads are good but they are bulky not gonna lie. Period pants are a good bridge between reusable pads and cups I would say ☺️ more content coming soon! xax
Thanks for the video! I was going to go for the budget Luna Loves but I think I'll check out ModiBodi now! Was wondering where your bra is from? It's really pretty and looks comfortable!
Modibodi are still my absolute fave :) I didn't find the love luna washed too well over time so I relegated them to my emergency handbag pair haha! It's a bra from cosabella :) xax
For more affordable options there is The Bamboo House and Cheeky Wipes. Unfortunately there are very few vegan choices in the modibody range.
Cheeky wipes don’t offer a high absorbency option - they are made (according to their website), for day 3-4 of your period so wouldn’t be suitable on their own for most people. I couldn’t find the ml they hold on their website (unless I missed it) so I wasn’t confident with those. The bamboo house are new so they only have one style at the moment and don’t seem to offer varying levels of protection - just one style and one absorbency - but I’m sure they’ll expand over time! 🙂
Moodbodi do a full brief, a boy short, a bikini brief, a detachable brief, a swimming costume and a swimwear bikini bottom in their vegan range currently! These also come in various absorbencies - so that’s pretty good for choice and they’re expanding all the time which is awesome 👏🏻 xax
I tried all but the thinx cause the shipping is so ridiculously expensive...I found the modibodi and wuka had a very strange smell to begin with that took multiple washes to get out. Love luna are so comfy, cheap, not too thick, perfect for light days. Wuka feels a bit like a nappy and they are so tight they make me feel like a sausage...modibodi are super soft and comfy
How strange - neither Wuka or ModiBodi smelt for me at all and I’ve got loads of ModiBodi now. I don’t really find the heavy Loveluna comfortable, they’re pretty scratchy in comparison to the ModiBodi and Thinx pairs but they’re definitely an affordable option for those wanting to try free bleeding. it’s so interesting to hear everyone’s experiences 😊xax
@@xameliaxCZcams I've ordered a few more modibodi so I'll see if it was a one off with the smell, hopefully that is the case because otherwise they're great and the smell did fade eventually. To be fair I've only tried the moderate love luna, but it's useful to know the heavy ones aren't as good
Thank you for this review
You’re so welcome 🥰🥰🥰xax
Thank you super helpful !❤️
So glad it helped 🥰💕xax
I love my modibodi sensual. There's also Bonds Bloody Comfy period undies. Again, Australian brand.
Oooo i haven't heard of those! xax
I live in Australia and I'm thinking about getting those ones for my next period. I use love Luna at the moment during the day then goodnights pads at night. Where I live the bloody comfy ones are $20 which isn't too bad but good in the long run
Bree Hansen don’t get the bonds ones!! I bought like 4 pairs of them because I like how they fit but after I washed them as per the instructions the absorbent part has bunched up and lost it’s shape, seriously within 1 or 2 washes these underwear have gone so weird and hideous
Loved this vid, I’m all for normalising period talk!! I have some wuka pants and agree with what you said about that style, but I find their other style (with the wuka patterned elastic) are so much softer and fit me a lot better! Also did you find heavy pairs take forever to dry after washing, because I did😂x
Ah damn! I chose wrong 😂 might have to try those then! They dried super quick in this weather but usually they take a day!!!xax
Thank you for this ... 💕
You’re so welcome!xax
I've tried modi bodi, thinx (in multiple styles and absorbencies) and a few other brands. My problem with all of them is they don't have enough front coverage for me. Does anyone know of a brand that has a longer padding or that the waterproof bit goes all the way front to back. I was looking at the wuka site and it appears they have some with the waterproofing front to back but can't be sure. Anyone any suggestions?
I haven’t come across any with it right up to waistband at the front as well as the back. But the heavy overnight ones from thinx Wuka and modibodi go pretty far up x
Does Modi bodi have coverage in the back ? I love Knix but when I sleep the blood runs to the back and there is no coverage.
Yep - the overnight ones go all the way up to the waistband - you can see it in the video when I turn around 🥰xax
I should be starting my period again tomorrow, and a few weeks ago I got period panties from Love Luna, and I haven't got the chance to test whether they stop leaks 100%. I have exams and I'm terrified in case I start anywhere during exams. And I'm not sure how often to wash them and how often to wear them ect.
Thank you!
I’ve got two more videos in this playlist that will help you - how many pairs of period pants you need, and how to wash them! Hopefully they’ll help you 😊 good luck in your exams - the love Luna pairs I’ve had have worked really well so you won’t have any leaks during the exam. Don’t worry!xax
@@xameliaxCZcams Thank you so much!!!!!
I would be curious if you have tried bambody and how they compare to these ones.
I believe they only hold up to 2 tampons worth so wouldn't be as absorbent as these xax
New subscriber here. Loving this video so much.
Would love to see a video about washing them and also just wondering if the size chart was true to measurements for you? Did your measurements compare to the size on the chart? I hope that makes sense and I hope you see this 🙂
Aw thank you! Yes i found them true to size apart from Wuka as you can see - very small. But the rest I was between sizes and went for the smaller and it was fine xax
Thank you so much. This is very helpful.
I'm thinking about trying Wuka Wear and ModiBodi, do you have a referral code, or an updated money off- code?
Sadly I don’t sorry my love! This video was quite a while ago now but they’re all still going strong so I can confirm they last very well and are worth buying 🤗xax
This is great. Do you have any advice for period pants for girls? I got my period when I was 11 and my daughter is 11 and has been getting cramps at the times I get one. I want to be prepared.
I don’t have any personal experience as I don’t have children myself but I know that modibodi do a teen range xax
Modi are the best hands down
They’re brill 😊😊😊xax
xameliax - UK Vlogger & Content Creator been using them for over a year now and still going strong. They also come in the most amazing colours. Glad you like them too
I just purchased Modibodi, but they are just so tight, and not comfortable at all. Feel so disappointed after using the size guide and comparing myself to the models on the website. Would recommend others to size up, and only buy one pair the first time, so you can you the 60-day risk-free trail. But thank you for making this video anyways 🌸
So sorry they don’t fit you lovely - I find mine super comfy. For reference anyone who’s reading, I’m a UK size 12-14 and I wear a medium x
Hello after watching this video I went and brought some love luna. I have a question do you change the knickers in the day or do they usual last all day and just change before bed. Please help im super scared to wear these and need some advice before it comes.
Hi amberley, it really does depend on your flow - how much do you bleed in a day? Did you buy the heavy love Luna or the light love Luna? You’ll need to calculate how much you bleed and have a think about how many pairs of period pants you think you will go through - but I can’t 100% help until you let me know which absorbency you bought and how heavy your flow is 💕
@@xameliaxCZcams hey thanks for replying. I brought the heavy flow and a light one. I normally wear tampons and on my heaviest day I would wear the max tampons and change it 2 times in the day. Whereas the pants say 3-4 regular tampons. Thanks for your help 🙂
So a regular tampon holds around 9ml which means the heavy pants will hold up to 36ml. A maxi tampon is around 18ml, so the heavy pants can hold about two of those which means the heavy pair could last you all day. Of course they are all just averages and you'll need to change/protect things over night and have a fresh pair to wear the next day x
Oh perfect thank you for your help and thanks for posting this video. 😀
Did you ever try the Hey Girl pants?
I haven’t - are they good?xax
I do wonder how heavy the flow chart they use actually is.
It says on the website lovely- for thinx, their heavy flow is over 1 cup, so 35ml and ModiBodi I think is around 30ml. Just go to the flow you want to buy and it says in the information for each product what the equivalent is in tampons/cups/mls. SOLVED 😊💕xax
Hey our WUKA pants are £20 not £25.
Thanks
Ruby
Thanks for the update Ruby 😊 💕xax
I love my cup but iv just ordered some modi bodi too for night time for when I want to give my vagina a break 🤣 hoping I have just as positive experience xx
That’s what I do 😊😊😊xax
A con to list for Thinx...they are NOT truly size-inclusive. I wear a 3X in most items of clothing (underwear, jeans, etc.), and I couldn’t even get the Thinx 3X past my thighs. I had to go to Modibodi, but I’m glad I did because I love them. I just wish they had some prettier options. They’re getting there, but most of the “curvy” styles are just plain black or beige.
Modibodi seem to be always updating their range I think :) xax
Have you tried Saalt?
I use their menstrual cups - they’re my favourite! xax
Here for it 🤗🥰
👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍
