FAQ

The answers to all of your questions.

KIKI & GREEN pads are designed with an ultra-absorbent multi-layer core and waterproof backing to help provide secure, reliable protection throughout your cycle. Many customers tell us they’re surprised by just how absorbent our pads feel, especially compared to traditional disposables.

Our pads are designed to feel comfortable, dry, and secure during wear, however we always recommend changing your pad according to your individual flow and needs. On heavier days, some women may prefer to change more frequently for maximum comfort and confidence.

To help maintain absorbency and performance over time, we recommend avoiding fabric softener, as this can create build-up within the fibres.

Our pads are made using very high quality super (we mean SUPER) absorbent inner layers. We also have premium bamboo charcoal on the wings of the pad to catch any possible over flow. Our cloth pads are very absorbent and are designed to contain effectively outflow. We do recommend changing to suit your needs to reduce the chance of leaks, recommended changing time between 3-5hours - but this really does depend on your individual flow.

Please avoid fabric softener on your pads, as this can create a build-up in the fabric and reduce absorbency. 

Taking care of your pads is super easy once you know how..

Before use
Prewash all pads on cold wash with detergent. This helps to activate the absorbent fibres.

After use 
Rinse pads in cold water, (until water runs clear), or leave them to soak overnight to prevent staining. Throw them in with the rest of your wash and normal detergent - up to 40 degrees, (or hand wash as you go).

After washing
Stretch pads back into shape if required, and air dry wherever you like with our handy drying straps provided. Do not apply direct heat as this may cause shrinkage. 

Pro Tips
Don't use fabric softener, hot water or bleach as this will affect the absorbent technology. We recommend washing on a longer wash cycle with maximum spin speed of 1000rmp, to ensure you get the most of your pads in the long run. Wear them with well-fitting underwear, to really keep them in place. Especially if you are active! 

Our pads should not stain. A quick cold water rinse by hand will do the trick. We don’t recommend using hot water as this will set the blood and cause staining!

Any questions about washing your pads, please feel free to get in touch with us.

Our pads attach the same way that a disposable does. You simply put them into your underwear and attach the popper wings on the underside making for a secure fit and then you’re good to go.

With every set you will find a handy travel bag. Each bag has 2 compartments - one for storing used pads, one for storing clean pads.

Once used, simply clip the used pad closed, and pop it in one of the compartments. The wet bags are super cute, and discreet. 

Yes! Nurture your body through this phase with our toxin free pads. Soft against your skin.

Our heavy range pads are prefect post partum, and they make a great gift for a mumma to be. 

Wear them with well-fitting underwear with a wider gusset.

Wear them with pants like these, and you will forget you are even wearing a pad!

When cared for and changed regularly according to your flow, most customers do not experience odour issues when using reusable pads.

KIKI & GREEN pads feature a soft bamboo charcoal blend topper chosen for its comfort, performance, and freshness-related properties. Bamboo charcoal materials are widely recognised for their porous structure and adsorption-related qualities, which is one of the reasons they are commonly used in reusable textiles and freshness-focused products.

We also recommend washing your pads as instructed and avoiding fabric softener, as this can reduce absorbency and overall performance over time.

At KIKI & GREEN, product safety and comfort are extremely important to us.

Our pads are independently third-party tested to ensure they meet relevant consumer safety standards and are free from PFAS and other restricted harmful substances.

KIKI & GREEN pads are designed using multiple carefully selected layers to help create a comfortable, dry, and reliable period experience.

• Top layer: A soft bamboo charcoal polyester blend topper designed to feel comfortable and help wick moisture away from the skin.

• Inner layers: Ultra-absorbent microfibre layers designed to absorb moisture quickly and efficiently.

• Outer layer: A waterproof PUL backing layer designed to help provide leak-proof protection during wear.

Each material is carefully selected for its comfort, absorbency, durability, and real-life performance during wear.
