Playtex Clean Comfort™ Tampons, Regular Absorbency
Playtex Clean Comfort™ Organic Cotton Core Tampons with 40% Less Plastic1
Playtex Clean Comfort™ organic cotton core tampons are taking a small step towards making a bigger impact than before. The most effective way to combat plastic pollution is to reduce the amount being produced, so we’ve thoughtfully designed this tampon applicator with 40% less plastic1. Each applicator has a rounded plastic tip for comfortable insertion and eco-friendly material for the rest, eliminating up to 140 plastic plungers a year2. Contains a 100% organic cotton core and string that’s free from chlorine, fragrances and dyes. Featuring 360° PROTECTION® which is designed to fit and adjust to your body with every move. This is a great option for those who want to make a change without compromising on comfort.
Playtex Clean Comfort™ has teamed up with Women’s Earth Alliance (WEA) to support their grassroots initiatives and sustainability projects. Learn more about how we are working with WEA here.
Follow our comprehensive step by step instructions on how to insert a tampon. If you feel any discomfort, the tampon may not be far enough inside. You shouldn’t feel anything when the tampon is correctly in place. Absorbency needs can change throughout your cycle, and it’s okay to try different absorbencies. Remember to change your tampon every 4 to 8 hours.
