Have you ever given pads, liners & tampons a second thought?
We have! And a third and a fourth… Honestly, here at Blushing Bluebird Essentials, we are constantly brainstorming ways to encourage women (like you) to think twice and consider a better option: Bluebird Pads. We know that you will love how comfortable and natural they feel and how simple it is to use them. So, we decided it was high time we offered a nudge in the right direction (… who likes a sale?!). Before I get into the details, a brief introduction for those who don’t know us.
In a Nutshell
In the fall of 2016, my mom, sister and I launched Blushing Bluebird Essentials (AKA Bluebird Pads). We created a complete line of reusable cotton pads & bags using exclusively organic cotton fabrics + an eco-friendly waterproof barrier. Bluebird Pads are locally made, pretty, eco-friendly and OH-SO comfortable!
Can You Relate?
How did we get started? We, like many of you, were sick and tired of disposables (the itch, the crinkling, the chemicals, the garbage – need I go on?) but fell into one of three categories – perhaps you can relate?
We get it! We want to simplify the process to get you started.
To that end, we created this chart to make it easier for you to choose the size(s) that are suitable for you.
Bluebird Pads come in 8 different sizes and shapes. This chart is an accurate representation of the variety and the info below lists how much they absorb and what products they are comparable to. Switching made easy!
