Got to try out the OB Tampons (which come in Regular and Super) for free from Smiley360! I never thought of buying these before since they don't have an applicator.
I was honestly quite nervous to try these! The no applicator made the tampons look quite daunting. I liked the idea that there was less waste, though, due to no applicator and smaller boxes. I worked up the courage to try one and really liked that I was able to place it myself so that it wasn't too far in (and thus it did not give me those weird period tampon cramps). I noticed, though, while going to the bathroom later on that the tampon felt like it was falling out, likely because it wasn't in as far. I think there's an art to placing the OB tampons, but there's a lot of potential. Also, the price is amazing compared to other brands. Personally, it is difficult that they do not have sizes higher than Super for those heavier days, so I'm only able to use them for about half my period.
Pro: Definitely helped me not get cramps during the early days of my period. Since I can place it lower, it doesn't cause cramping problems.
Con: The lower position made the tampon feel odd after a few hours. Also, it was difficult that the highest absorbency was super. Super Plus would be very helpful!
