Know someone on the verge of menarche? The First Periods Kit is the perfect way to share a positive attitude toward menstruation!
Menarche can be a scary transition, but this starter kit full of comfortable reusable pads can help make the change smoother. Passage: A Guide to Periodscontains age-appropriate information about what to can expect from your changing body in a positive way.
Caring for your cloth pads is simple. Follow our easy step-by-step instructions to ensure your GladRags will stay in great condition for years to come.
After use, separate the inserts from the holder. Pantyliners do not have inserts.
Soak in cold water, if desired, to help prevent staining. Use the presoak function on your washing machine, or soak in a covered rust-proof container. Change soaking water daily.
Machine wash cold using a natural detergent and tumble dry low or line dry. Do not use bleach or fabric softener. You may hand wash pads if desired.
Remove pads from dryer promptly and store flat to eliminate wrinkling; use cool iron if desired. Store your pads in a clean, dry place until next use.
Avoid using detergents with fabric softeners or whiteners/brighteners as these can inhibit the absorbency of your cloth pads. Try these plastic-free, non-toxic laundry detergent sheets from our friends at Zero Waste Cartel! Be aware that soaking your cloth pads in water with additives such as hydrogen peroxide can degrade the fabric and lead to holes. For this reason, we recommend utilizing stain removers as spot treatments and do not advise soaking cloth pads in water treated with peroxide-based stain removers.
We do not recommend the use of castile soap, facial soap, or other soaps not intended for textile laundering. Excess detergent may lead to build up, which can limit the absorbency of your cloth pads. While we have many customers that use homemade detergents with great success, cloth pads laundered with homemade detergent are not covered under our warranty. Full warranty information is available here.
A note about staining: Soaking your GladRags in cold water or pre-treating with an enzymatic cleanser immediately after using are two simple ways to prevent staining. However, light staining does not indicate that your laundered cloth pads are not clean or sanitary!
To clean your GladRags Carry Bag, simply wipe the bag with a damp cloth or machine wash cold, then air dry or tumble dry low.
Please note: all of our pads are proudly sewn by hand. As such, some variation will naturally occur. The sizes above are approximate. Please be aware that GladRags are not pre-shrunk and some shrinkage may occur after washing.
We purchased GladRags when my child’s period started after looking at several different options for washable pads. The patterns are super cute and also a lot easier to find in the laundry amongst the jeans and tee-shirts. It’s only been a few months of use but they have held up well to washing and are still soft. The “pouch” ones have to be ironed occasionally to make them the right shape but that’s usually bc they didn’t come out of the dryer right away (user error). Super happy with them and I’m sure we will buy more later.
Gladrags are the best thing ever. Comfortable, safe, easy to use/clean, adorable, forever reusable, you will not be responsible for tons of non-biodegradable menstrual products over the years, polluting the environment, when you buy these. So grateful for this company!
Getting this darling kit was just the first step in my daughter's Gladrags journey. She loved choosing her Carry Bag and selecting colors for the Day Pads & Pantyliners. "Passage" hit a sweet spot for her bookworm self, and was something she could read (alone, without mom) to prepare for her first period. Add in low-impact packaging--such a bonus for my earth-saving tween.
After the excitement of the First Periods Kit, my daughter and I have slowly added Pads to her Gladrags stash, ordering especially when new prints are released. Building up her supply of Pads bit by bit has given us a concrete opportunity to 1) make periods fun, 2) enjoy puberty, and 3) normalize talking about body changes.
This kit helped me set a first periods foundation of joy and openness for my daughter. She is already having a waaaaaaaay better puberty than me. Thank you for the boost, Gladrags!
Worth the cost, zero waste, odorless and easy to clean! Cute designs that are comfy and can surprisingly hold a good amout. So glad they came out with plus size/night.
