Cora 100% Organic Cotton Non-Applicator Tampons (36 Light/Regular Tampons)

Great product, organic cotton

I love the Cora brand tampons because they are 100% organic cotton, no chemicals or bleach. I try to mind my carbon foot print and use a cup, but I also do like to have some single use products on hand incase of emergency. I feel much better knowing I am creating minimal waste. These are very compact and about the length of one of their regular compact tampons. It’s perfect for backpacking, hiking, or just to save space in your bathroom. I haven’t used them yet, but I imagine they expand in the same circular fashion their applicator tampons do, which is far superior for preventing leaks.

Pleasantly surprised!!! Way more comfortable to insert, takes about a third of the space the boxes took, and absorbs just like the other Cora tampons. 😍

The only kind I buy now bc they're not toxic like store brands. I noticed a huge difference switching to these. Store brands I've used before made me cramp so much, after falling down the rabbit hole and learning how toxic they are I know why now. So I started trying organic brands and this was the first one I tried bc it was more affordable than others. I wasn't expecting to notice a difference in cramping but omg its a huuuuuge difference. I cant believe I went so many years without knowing that.

No plastic applicator allows for less waste either each tampon. Absorbency is comparable to other brands. Have been using this brand for a few years. The automatic subscription/shipping makes them affordable and convenient.

At first they seemed expensive but, after comparing to all the other organic tampons I've tried, they're basically the same price. Maybe even a bit cheaper. Also at first glance, I laughed at the size of the light size. It's tiny! I couldn't imagine what use I would have for those now that I'm dealing with mid-forties periods. It turns out that I use them every month during the last few days. So much more comfortable! Coras are really comfortable in general. The absorbency may not be as quite as good as other brands but the quality is high. They're easy to unwrap, there's never loose cotton fluff hanging off of them, and did I mention they're easy to unwrap? That's usually a huge pet peeve for me. Periods are hard enough. Don't make us fumble around for an invisible plastic tab on top of it.

I started using these back when I was constantly spotting on my IUD. The spotting was too heavy for a liner but too light for a regular tampon (plus I didn’t want to wear pads all of the time), so this was a godsend. I switched back to the pill so I’m not spotting 24/7 anymore, but these are still good for lighter period days or when I occasionally have heavier spotting. For everyone writing negative reviews for the size L about being too small—pick a larger size. It’s supposed to be smaller than regular tampons, and I’m glad for that!

I prefer no string, but that said no one makes organic no string. I tried these as they met my requirements and was sadly disappointed. They are poor to absorb, smaller than the average tampon and just a pain, really. I am glad I elected to try these via amazon verses being spammed by the company.
