All About Panty Liners ft. Bella India

In the era of technological awareness, most women are aware what a panty liner is. But for those, who have just heard about these and not used any yet, I would like to throw some light on the matter.

What is a panty liner?
Panty liners are feminine care products made to be lined the inner side of your panties. They look similar to a sanitary pad, but are thinner and lighter.

Why to use a panty liner? 

Though these liners appear same as of a pad, they are not intended to absorb the menstrual flow during the periods of a woman. The main purpose to use a pantry liner is to absorb light vaginal discharge or urine leakage. Many women face the issue of little vaginal discharge after physical exercise, due to weakness or for any other reason when they lose bladder control. In any of such situations, panty liners can be your saviour. Moreover, who doesn't like a clean and dry inner wear at all times, so pick and stick a liner inside your panty to catch that little flow.

When to change?

Depending on the purpose for which you're wearing a liner, the duration may vary. If you wore it expecting your periods and it didn't begin, don't just leave it unchanged imagining it's clean. If you’re wearing it overnight for holding white discharge, it’s good to change it first thing in the morning to prevent an overgrowth of invisible bacteria. Lastly, if you've placed it for enhance protection with a tampoon, do change it like you do for a sanitary pad that is immediately after it's done to capacity.

Best Panty Liners For A Healthy You

I'm sure you won't like the idea of placing a synthetic material close to your delicate area. Obviously, this everyday hygiene product has to be made from safest fabric that is gentle to touch and does the job. I had done a collaborative post with Bella India few months back and after using their quality sanitary pads, I was keen to try their liners range too. So here is a detailed presentation on the vast offerings by the brand. 

Bella Panty Mini 

This is one of the smallest and most discreet classic panty liners available in India with only 3 mm thickness. It is latex-free, so the women who are allergic to latex may opt for this one without worries of any skin reactions. Just like Bella sanitary napkins, these liners are also made of air breathable material to let the skin breathe and avoid rashes and irritations.

Price: INR 75 per pack of 36 pieces.

Bella Panty Soft Comfort 

Little smaller, unscented liner with a breathable absorbent layer to help keeping your intimate area dry. Thin as its other mates from classic liners category i.e. 3 mm. The best thing is their individual packing. It slips in my sanitary pouch so easily and I feel confident carrying it in the handbag.

Price: INR 55 per pack of 12 pieces.

Bella Panty Soft Deo Fresh

Another variant from classic panty liners is Soft Deo Fresh. As the name suggests, this one has mild floral scent to make you feel fresh for hours. It provides same level of comfort due to 3 mm thickness that doesn't make you feel uncomfortable. 

Price: INR 69 per pack of 20 pieces. 

Bella Panty Intima Normal

Intima range is the best-seller product of the brand. These have top sheet made of pure cotton that feels exceptionally delicate, soft. With less than 2 mm thickness and anatomical shape, the liners almost get invisible under clothing. Though nobody gonna see that, but these ultra-thin, super comfortable liners have got cute flower embossing on them ;)

Bella Panty Intima Plus Large

This enlarged variant of Intima is designed for enhanced absorption for better security. The liners are infused with natural herbal extracts of rose, jasmine and daisy to give aromatic feel. These too are as thin as 1mm so you barely feel like wearing any extra layer inside. Yet these are ideal to save you from embarrassment of stains/wetness on your pants.

Bella Panty Herbs Verbena

Bella has a unique range of liners enriched with various herbal extracts that offer distinct benefits. One of those is Panty Herbs Verbena. The gentle lemony scent of this flowering plant helps to regulate menstrual cycle and has anti-inflammatory properties. The Odour Stop feature of this liner helps to neutralise unpleasant smell and provides feeling of freshness. These liners contain a special substance that turns moisture into gel. So despite being only 1mm thick, it ensures high absorbency.

Bella Panty Herbs Tilia

The Tilia liner variant has got sweet floral smell. This flower is known for its healing properties and soothes skin irritation. These extra soft liners in anatomic shape guarantee no leakage due to magic gel and 100% breathability offers free air circulation and protects against skin irritations.

Discover the complete range of finest female hygiene products on brand website or order these from Amazon. You may also contact their Whatsapp number 7259001321 to locate nearest store.

I personally don't recommend wearing a liner everyday unless and until it's really needed because it may itch on your private parts. I prefer using a liner when the heavy flow of my period has subsided and I want to avoid any spotting or stains on my clothes. Carrying a few pantry liners in my bag is my habit, when periods arrive unexpectedly or probably to offer one to any of my friends in need. 

Wearing a panty liner is definitely a matter of personal preference, but it's a good idea to handle your daily struggle of wetness.

Comfort For Every Woman feat. Bella

Lack of freshness, unpleasant smell, fear of leakage and stains! Yes, most women would promptly interpret what I am talking about. This yucky feel directly relates to women's menstrual days that causes a variety of issues despite using good sanitary products and other absorbent material to collect menstrual fluid. Poor and neglected hygiene during menstrual days may further lead to itchy vaginal area, urinary infection and much more.

To prevent all these problems, the quick fix is to choose your sanitary products wisely. With a vision to introduce all my female readers to a premium brand that claims to be 'best fit for perfect woman', I'm reviewing Bella products in this post.

Bella is a worldwide known brand since its inception 65 years ago in Europe, now selling its products in 80 countries in the world. The brand offers a wide range of products including sanitary pads, panty liners, tampons for intimate hygiene that women may choose as per their liking, needs and lifestyle. 

Check out what I have in store to review today :)

This review post has two sub-sections targetting two broad categories of products I received, one being female sanitary products and another cotton products.

I) Female Sanitary products

I received Bella Perfecta Ultra Silky Drai napkins in two sizes i.e. L and XXL. Both of these are very absorbent sanitary napkins designed for very heavy menstrual flow. XXL size is recommended for Night time to ensure complete comfort while you sleep. The top sheet of these napkins provides dryness. Leakage Control System that is designed with due to magic gel barriers is another unique feature which effectively protects against side leakages. These are the only breathable sanitary napkins in India that let proper air circulation and help your skin breathe easily. It results in protection from unpleasant smell, rashes and irritation.

Price: INR 165 for 14 pcs

Price: INR 55 for 8 pcs 

Bella Panty Intima are really good panty liners with only 1mm thickness for the greatest comfort.
These are covered with 100% cotton and are available in various sizes (Small, Medium, Large) for every need. I received a pack with Deo Fresh feature that has mild floral fragrance. A great pick for routine hygiene other than those special days.

Price: INR 95 for 20 pcs

Bella Ideale Night Stay Drai is double structured, flexi-fit napkin for total freedom of movement. This one is extra long and ultra thin, but handles high flow efficiently. (sample pack)

Bella Senstive Feminine Wash is meant for maintaining the natural microbial flora of intimate area. Especially recommended for senstive skin because of mosturizing properties, enriched with Allantoine and D-panthenol. (sample pack)

                                                                   II) Cotton Products

Bella Cotton Balls are exceptionally soft and absorbent making these perfect to be a part of anybody's everyday grooming essentials. Women may use it for removing their facial and eye makeup without harming the skin and to remove nail paint. Mommies can use these cotton balls for their of babycare needs. Don't forget to keep a few cotton balls in your first-aid kit as these are safe to clean wounds, cuts and scars. 

Price: INR 129 for 100 pcs.

Bella Cotton Pads are seriously multi-utility product for any household. You may use these to ease the job of removing your makeup, to clean a bleeding lipstick or smudged kohl. There can be endless things you may experiment with. The plus point is that they don't leave behind separate fibres on skin and can be used with every type of the skin. The pack I received is in Aloe extract variant.

Price: INR 99 for 70 pcs

Bella Cotton Buds are popular for removing earwax. There are several clever hacks of using cotton buds in everyday life. The buds packed in the plastic box can be placed in the bathroom, but I wish the grip of cap on the box should be tight. 

Price: INR 59 for 100 pcs 

You may order most of the Bella products online. I'm really happy with the pricing and quality of the products and would difinitely like to order some more products pretty soon. 

1m Intimate Cream Wash 3.5 Review

While all women might be concerned about their vaginal health, not many of them will be knowing importance of using a dedicated product formulated exclusively for making your lady-part smell better and remain problem-free.

I've used a number of women hygiene products in past years and found those effective too. Currently, I'm using 1m Intimate Cream Wash 3.5 manufactured by Ozone Ayurvedics and have got all good things to say about it just after a use of 8-10 days (usually I test and try any product for 20+ days to make up my opinion).

1m intimate Cream Wash 3.5 is specially formulated to protect feminine intimate (vulvo-vaginal) area from dryness, itching, irritation, soreness, burning sensation and unpleasant odour during reproductive years in the age of 15 to 44 years. The product helps in maintaining a natural pH level of 3.5 in the intimate area and restores healthy intimate micro-flora consisting of good bacteria.

1m Intimate Cream Wash is packed in a soft tube packaging. The 100gm tube packaging is light-weight, has tightly-enclosed flip cap and leak-proof material; hence can easily stick in your travel-kit. Every important information about ingredients, price, usage directions is neatly printed on tube alongwith a pH scale indicating the product applicability.

1m Intimate Wash is a thick, velvet smooth cream bearing pleasant fragrance that helps to maintain the intimate area's natural acidic balance. What made me love this product is that unlike most intimate washes, it is not a soap-based cream. You may apply it on your dry or wet intimate skin, which means even if you forget to carry it with you while bathing, it can be applied afterwards. 

Wondering if a vaginal wash can be left on skin without rinsing??? Well! the answer is Yes! this is a water soluble cream formulated with natural ingredients like Lactic Acid, Sea Buckthorn Oil and Tea Tree Oil and is safe to remain on skin. Honestly, I was skeptical to use it as  leave-in product, but it didn't disappoint me. 

Using this product on daily basis effectively catches odor-causing microorganisms and prevents foul-smelling odor. The women of any age group may use it, especially to perfectly balance out vaginal pH of 3.5 - 4.5 that generally is disturbed during menstruation. The females who complaint of itching, swelling and foul-smelling discharge may totally rely on this product since it is not harsh like usual soaps or cleansers. 

I'm glad that I found an expert, revolutionary and budget-friendly (costs only Rs 138 and easily available for online purchase at Amazon, Flipkart etc) hygiene wash that leaves me feeling fresh all day long and restores perfect health of women's intimate area. 

Dear Earth Fountain of Youth Feminine Wash Review

Its a common phenomenon in India that females of all ages feel uneasy or reluctant to talk about their genital problems. Not only to their physician, but in many cases, even to their parents or spouse too. And this is a reason that most problem go uncured until it reaches an alarming situation.

A  close friend of mine got trapped in similar inconvenient situation due to her hesitation to discuss the issue and is now suffering from severe Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs). It prompted me to write about a promising product that can assure you a safer and hygienic genital region by preventing bacterial infections, odors, itching and any other discomfort.

So I'm reviewing Dear Earth "Fountain of Youth" Feminine Wash today..

Qty: 150 ml
Price: Rs 500/-
Shelf Life: 12 months from the date of mfg.
Ingredients: 
Fountain of Youth feminine wash is very sensitively formulated with USDA and PETA India certified organic and nutritive ingredients such as tea tree oil, rose oil, neem oil, coconut oil and extracts of betel leaves & bermuda grass. These all have excellent rejuvenating and healing properties. Not only that, the product is registered as vegan by the Vegan Society, UK.

The product comes in a plastic bottle with a 'press open' kind of cap to open and extract the liquid, which is quite easy n handy way.

The Fountain of Youth Feminine Wash is of very thin watery consistency in neutral color (lighter than the one that is seen in the bottle). Its sufficiently foamy and you need just few drops for one time use. It smells so soothing n mild that once you use it, you naturally start feeling cleaner. And this fragrance lets you fight bad odour. It is meant for external use only, so be careful while applying it and wash the genitalia properly.It doesn't need much effort to rinse it off.

I feel really happy to share that the product is totally chemical free n paraben free, hence can be a part of your daily self-care regime without any worries. I suffered with no itching or irritation after its daily use. Infact its regular use improves texture of  vaginal skin with nutrition n moisture and helps in tightening skin tissues. So it can be used specially by those females who are looking for an appropriate product to tighten their vaginal skin.

The Betel leaf extracts provides freshness all the day long, while tea tree oil is one of the best antiseptic to fight bacterial infections that mostly occur in your mensural periods due to the use of same sanitary pads for longer period and so on. The Bermuda grass (Dhub in Hindi) is known for its medicinal value and thus provides its healing benefits to our private organs too. It gently cures skin allergies that may arise when you are careless in maintaining hygiene.

 Pros:
1. Purely Vegan (as this cute bunny reads) :)
2. Easy Availability online
3. Suitable for daily use.
4. Sufficient quantity to last more than a month.
5. National as well as International Certification for Authentic Ingredients.

Cons:
I found it a bit heavy on pocket (as I feel some interested users might not buy it just becasue of its price.)

Final Word: I can confidently recommend the Dear Earth Fountain of Youth Feminine Wash to every woman who dare to care for themselves !!
