How often should you change your pads? {Your Opinion}

· · 12 Comments

Ok, so I would like to ask all of you a question today. During the period days, how often do you change your pads?
The reason I am asking is from two concerns – hygiene and blood flow. Now, some people suffer from excessive blood flow for which they have to change the pads very frequently. But, what about the hygiene aspect? Well, you are getting so many awesome products in the market which give complete protection lasting up to a day also. BUT, even if your blood flow is not heavy, the dry blood in the pad acts as a stimulant for bacterial growth and there is a certain type of bacteria which causes vaginal infection so you should change the pads once in every 4-6 hours so as to avoid the infection.Also share your opinions on:
How many products do you layer on your face?
How long do you leave the conditioner?
Is Vanity Silly?
Hair Mask first or Conditioner?
Budgeting on Shopping
Face Mask Sheets or Face Masks?

Ok, so this is so awesome that I had to share immediately. Till today, I wasn’t much in awe of this product but today it changed my mind about itself.
Price: Rs 75 for 150ml
Ingredients
I am out of the product but it has aloe vera gel, permitted colors, Vitamin E and preservatives.
My Experience
As a facial product, I won’t say anything because the only purpose I used the gel for was for my hair. Oh yes, I did use the aloe gel also as a face mask so that ways also it was awesome!!! Anyways, I wanted to talk about something else. I applied the gel on my hair and kept it for an hour around. And, after that, I washed my hair and voila!!! My hair was so soft and shiny. The results were awesome and I would definitely urge everyone to give this a try 🙂

My Experience
It is an intensive body lotion meant for very dry skin but as far as the texture of the lotion goes, it is not very thick as one would actually expect. Instead, its a smooth lotion and is very easily spreadable. And, one thing which leaps out is that you feel the lotion is very hydrating. It moisturizes the skin very nicely and leaves a very healthy glow behind making the skin look very glowing and supple and dewy. The staying power of the lotion is very very good. It lasts around 12-16 hours at a go and this is in the temperatures varying from 4-9 degrees.
My Recommendation
Yes, it is a good body lotion for all skin types.
