How To Use

Wingless Pads
All styles of New Moon Pads cloth menstrual pads are all-in-ones. No pieces to put together, no pockets to stuff, no assembly of any kind required. Just lay in and go. The easiest to use reusable washable cloth pads on the market today. Place fleece side against panty to prevent pad from slipping and to keep moisture away from clothing (print side goes against skin). The fleece backing and panties hold them in place. New Moon Pads conform naturally to your shape when worn, forming a gentle "U" shape from front to back for a comfortable natural fit. When using wingless pads you have to remember to hold onto the pad through the front of your panties when pulling them down. Wingless pads are discounted by $2 each from winged pads.

Winged Ultra Pads
Wings on Ultra Pads are sewn to the back of the pad due to their innovative design for maximum side leak protection, featuring leak resistant side gussets. Ultra Pads are a bit bulkier than the regular pads as they have a ridged area of leak resistant fleece along the sides to prevent overflow, designed specifically for those women who tend to side leak.

Design Basics
Pads are all-in-ones (nothing to stuff, add, or piece together) and are offered in both wingless and winged styles and are topped in your choice of high thread count soft cotton or cotton flannel, have double brushed flannel centre core layering, and are backed by Malden Mills sherpa fleece for leakproofing. Much time and effort is taken in selecting quality print cottons and cotton flannels for an appealing look as well as quality functionality. The double brushed flannel (used in the core of the pads) is specifically designed for manufacturing high absorbency products. Elementals and Foldables are made of all cotton flannel. All-in-all New Moon Pads are very trim but VERY absorbent.

Did You Know?
The average woman will throw away approximately 10,000 to 15,000 disposable menstrual products in her lifetime. Compare that to cloth. If a woman purchased 20 cloth pads every 10 years she would have gone through only 80 cloth pads total.

Winged Pads
Except for Ultra Pads (which have the wing tabs sewn to the back due to their unique design), winged pads have the wing tabs sewn to the front of the pad so when wrapped around to the underside they form a gentle contoured shape. Snaps are hypoallergenic stainless steel for long life and durability.

Why Wing Tabs Instead Of
Full Body Wings?
Simply put...comfort and stability. Wing tabs are much trimmer than full body wings and help keep the pad in place without pulling it out of shape. Full body wings tend to bunch and buckle the pad when snapped.

Not All Pads Are Created Equal
When shopping around for cloth menstrual pads be sure to check sizing dimensions, absorbency capabilities, whether or not they have a leakproof layer (and what material is used, ie. PUL or fleece), and design benefits (ie. trim absorbency vs bulky absorbency). Different padmakers have different sizing scales. One padmaker’s large my be the equivalent of another padmaker’s small so you need to look at the actual dimensions. One thing to keep in mind, longer pads tend to feel more comfortable while offering better coverage. Beware of exceptionally short pads unless you are a petite body style.
