FLO Non-Applicator Tampons

One of our beliefs at Here We Flo is that every single person is different and the products they will need will also be different based on their flows, their bodies and their personal preferences.

We literally like to give life to the saying 'to each their own'. That being said, and working under the assumption that nobody knows you like you do, if you still need a little help deciding what you need, here's a peek into our top sellers: the bamboo 'combo' pad pack, the eco-applicator 'combo' pack & the bamboo liners. Hopefully one of those will be up your valley! 👀

Ofc! FLO Eco-friendly Applicator Tampons are award-winning, plant-powered protection for your period. Every tampon is made with GOTS 100% Certified Organic Cotton and without harsh chemicals, bleach, chlorine or dyes.

The super-smooth Eco-applicator is made from sugarcane (95% plant-based) and easy to insert, even for beginners. Say goodbye to those nasty cardboard applicators that pinch down there. Each pack has 8 Regular and 6 Super applicator tampons to cover you throughout your unique flow.

FLO organic cotton tampons expand width-wise for increased comfort and superior leak protection. All our tampons are perfectly packaged in an ice cream tub to satisfy those sweet period cravings! We're a business founded by two women of colour for people who menstruate, that's why every pack back gives back with 5% of profits going to people and the planet. Vegan, cruelty-free, Carbon Neutral and BCorp Certified. We've got your back (and your front) with shamelessly natural care for life's messiest moments.

We always recommend using the lowest absorbency possible to your FLO. The risk of Toxic Shock Syndrome, which is associated with the use of tampons, increases with higher absorbency tampons, so we always recommend you use the lowest absorbency that meets your needs on each day of your period.

We offer combo packs for both of our bamboo applicator and non-applicator tampons, featuring both Super and Regular tampons. So, if your flow is heavier at the beginning of your period but lighter towards the end, you can adjust accordingly without needing 2 different boxes of tampons!

A good way to test which type of FLO you’ve got is to use the Regular absorbency tampon and, if it becomes full and starts to leak in less than 4 hours, you’ll know you need a Super instead. Another way that you can reduce the risk of TSS is by alternating your tampon use with the use of pads. Our FLO bamboo pads will work brilliantly for that!

FLO eco-applicator tampons: the tampons themselves are 100% compostable. However, there are still no official compostability guidelines for menstrual products, as experts themselves are conflicted due to the 'medical waste' nature of used period care products. So we recommend you dispose of them in the general waste bin, and they will naturally biodegrade in landfill in a few years. How wonderful is that? In contrast, the existing corporate alternatives take 100+ years to biodegrade.👎

The tampon wrappers are plant-based & compostable meaning they can be put in your general bin like the tampon itself where it will biodegrade.

The tampon applicators themselves are made of a 95% plant-based (sugarcane) biopolymer and are recyclable (please check locally).

FLO non-applicator tampons: 100% compostable (including the wrappers!), making them the most sustainable single-use products on the market.

As above, because compostability in the period product category is a new and still debated topic, we recommend you dispose of your tampons in the general waste bin, and they will naturally biodegrade in landfill in a few years. That's much less than mainstream products, whose biodegradation takes over 100 years!

Nooo. 🙅‍♀️

Please never flush any type of period care down the toilet regardless of biodegradability unless stated otherwise - It can wreak havoc on the water systems and wildlife. 🐠

We've got you SO covered!🙌 Did you know that our glo range, even if technically designed for bladder leaks, work perfectly for heavier flows?

Well, now you know! Our brilliant glo bamboo 'regular' and 'long' sensitive bladder pads are very well-suited to the heavy-duty period stuff 🏋️‍♂️.

Featuring 3D-leak barriers, a charcoal core and high absorbency bamboo, they’ll offer you all the comfort and the protection you need!

At Here We Flo, we are committed to using inclusive and empowering language to ensure that everyone who has a period feels welcome and supported. We carefully choose our words to reflect this commitment. Instead of using terms like "female," "women's products," or "feminine care," we opt for language that acknowledges and respects the diverse experiences of all individuals who menstruate. We also don't talk about “hygiene” or "sanitary products" because around here, we know that the vagina is a self-cleaning oven. Our focus is on providing period care that is accessible and affirming for everyone, regardless of gender identity. By doing so, we strive to create a more inclusive space where everyone can embrace life’s messy moments without feeling marginalised or excluded.
