I’ve been buying from honour your flow for years and although my original pads are going strong, my daughters are now old enough and require protection so I’ve bought more. These are my favourite and have never ever leaked! Worth every penny.
Comfortable
I bought these thinking they would be able to handle my heavy flow days but it quickly started overflowing over the sides. The owner Vicky kindly responded saying I most likely have an extremely heavy flow, which I didn't think I did but it seems hard to quantify. I do like the soft cotton material and the colours but they are just not absorbent enough for me. I also got some slim mega pads which coped a little better but still overflowed. I do tend to have quite thick mucousy blood which might affect absorbency but my previous bamboo fleece pads of similar size seemed to handle it much better, so probably have to go back to those even though I prefer the organic cotton. I think the overflow issue might also have to do with the design where the waterproof PUL layer sits inside the backing rather than outside, so the blood seeps around the edges and onto underwear before filling the length of the pad. These will probably be great if you have a light flow and thin blood.
We got in touch with this customer, and it turned out that her flow was in the extremely heavy bracket and she had particular issues with blood clots and flooding. These Maxi pads are designed for the heavier days of a normal flow, which means 1 or 2 light gushes or all day dribbles. The issue about where the waterproof PUL layer is is not a factor in her case, as the pads leaked around the edges because they overflowed. We have offered this customer a Mega pad to try, which is probably more the pad for her needs.

Do the job well and thoroughly.
I've been using Honour Your Flow reusable pads for about ten years now and I've never looked back. I use them as backup with a menstrual cup, and the pantyliners for heavy discharge days/pre-period backup. They're comfortable, absorbent, and get me through thirteen-hour plus work days with the minimum of fuss. There is minimal staining even after a decade of heavy use (I rinse in cold water then put them in the wash), the mini pads are discrete and great for every day, and I can't imagine how much I've saved in disposable products.
Amazing love perfect, exactly what I wanted. Get it, honestly
I have been using these pads for at least 6 years, for my oops moments. The pads have washed and washed.
Little to no smell.
Treated myself to new ones, feel just as amazing as the old ones.
I do not wish to try any other makes.
Lovely hair ties. They arrived promptly.
Really love these, a gift for a friend
Good size and increases confidence with shape at back.
I first purchased from HYF a very long time ago, and my organic unbleached pads are still going strong, many years later. I cannot explain what a game changer these pads were (and still are) for me, with Endometriosis and PMOS. I just wish I'd known about them when I first started menstruation and it looked like a crime scene most days. I have since gone on to purchase a starter pack in readiness for my stepdaughter's turn, and have since purchased further pads to add to her collection - which, at 12, she thinks are awesome. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this wonderful company to anyone (and have done so, regularly). Please never change!
Such a beautiful rich green colour! If you have heavy periods and you want to try reusable pads... just buy this one and thank me later. It's big, covers all areas, makes you feel secure and is extremely addict against your skin. It's also really easy to wash and dry, can withstand 60 degree wash and being tumble dried when most others advise cold wash and line dry only. This particular design allows you to fully remove the insert and turn the pad fully inside out to thoroughly clean it. Because the insert is removable it dries so sticky for a thicker pad. Really well thought out pad from honour your flow. My pad of choice for my heaviest days and nights!
So I first tried mega pads during my last period and had such a great experience that I bought nearly all the colours including this cream one. The pads give me so much reassurance, feel soft and comfortable and extremely dry. I have a very heavy flow similar to post partum bleeding due to having the copper coil fitted and night time disposable pads were overflowing in 2hrs leaking onto my clothes. The design of the pad is great as you can turn it fully inside out to give it a good scrub. HYF pads are also the only pads that you can tumble dry, most reusable pads advise line dry only. I really wanted to challenge myself to see if I could get ALL the stains out of this light coloured pad and I did really easily... cold water rinse, bunchafarmers stain stick you can buy from here too, scrub it on, leave it for a little while and rinse... voila! All stains fully gone!
Used this pad for the first time yesterday on my heaviest night. It was my first time using reusable pads ever. I had no leaks, all areas were covered by the pad as its huge and super absorbent. I thought i hadn't bled that much as i was dry... until I rinsed the pad! What's great about this style is that its really easy to wash and dry. You can remove the extra internal layer and really give it a scrub and turn the whole pad inside out to clean it. This also makes drying easier and you can tumble dry it! So many non HYF pads are linedry only and some take 2 days to dry fully! The HYF one are by far the most well thought out easiest reusable pads out there!
Great product, I’ve been using them as a protection for weakening bladder and once I found the right size so they weren’t bulky they’ve been perfect. Super soft. Wash nicely and never had any issues with leakage
10/10. Doesn't feel like you're wearing anything but catches what it needs to and more! HYF just do everything right. If you're thinking about making the switch to cloth pads then this is the brand you need.
I love this product, easy to wear & wash, feels really comfortable & also good to know that I'm making a contribution to the environmental chaos of disposables
Excellent as always, high quality, great pads, delivered super fast. Decided to try the thong liners and they are fantastic. Cannot recommend the full range highly enough.
