How to Care for Your Period Pants | JANED ARDOR Guide
Keep your period underwear fresh, effective, and long-lasting with these simple care tips.
1. Rinse in Cold Water First
After wearing, rinse your period pants in cold water as soon as possible. Cold water prevents blood from setting into the fabric and protects the absorbent lining. Never use hot water — heat can break down the fibres and reduce absorbency over time.
2. Hand Wash or Use a Gentle Machine Cycle
You can wash period pants by hand using a mild, fragrance-free detergent, or place them in a mesh laundry bag and run a gentle/delicate cycle at 30°C or below. Avoid washing with heavy items like jeans or towels that can cause friction damage.
3. No Bleach. No Fabric Softener. Ever.
Bleach destroys the waterproof and absorbent layers of your period pants. Fabric softener coats the fibres and reduces their ability to absorb — defeating the purpose entirely. Stick to a gentle, natural detergent, and your period pants will thank you.
4. Always Air Dry
Skip the tumble dryer. High heat degrades the elastic, the waterproof membrane, and the absorbent core. Instead, hang your period pants to air dry in a well-ventilated area. They'll be ready to wear again in a few hours.
5. Store Clean and Completely Dry
Before storing, make sure your period pants are completely dry to prevent mildew or odour. Fold and store them with your regular underwear in a clean, dry drawer. Avoid storing in plastic bags or airtight containers.
