The Here We Flo team is the fast growing period company known for clean products that actually work. Being featured in Vogue, Glamour, and The Independent is no simple feat!
They decided to revolutionize the space after learning both that: conventional pads are up to 90% plastic, and behind closed doors the period industry is pretty horrendous.
So they launched period pads made of 100% organic bamboo, all packaged up in biodegradable plant-starch wrappers. I know, it sounds crazy... until you try it.
Time to wave goodbye to synthetic fibers, chemical residues, dyes, pesticides, chlorine bleach, animal testing, and fragrances in your period care.
10 day pads + 5 night pads.
Made with ethically harvested Edge-Grown Bamboo (meaning it doesn't replace food crops) and has an incredibly low environmental footprint.
Here We Flo also donates 5% of their profits to menstrual & LGBTQ+ charities!

1) Discarded menstrual products are the fifth most common plastic waste product found in the ocean. We discard 12 Billion pads annually in the United States alone.
2) 85% of sanitary pads contain Monstanto's 'cancer causing' glyphosate pesticide in it.
3) Since inorganic cotton is an extremely pesticide heavy crop, it rapidly destroys our vital top soils, and pollutes our water systems.
4) Many pads contain chemicals such as dioxin, chlorine and rayon. These chemicals can leach into our groundwater and air as they sit in the landfill.
5) Inorganic cotton is extremely water intensive, requiring 3 quarts of water to grow just one small cotton bud.
Love the cute packaging but definitely not enough to use for one period.
Here we flo pads have been life changing - to say the least. Using these really made me realise how I was responding to chemicals from my usual pads! I’ve noticed less cramping and bleeding since switching over. Natural is the way to go!
I have long work days where I am not always able to get to the bathroom to change my pad every few hours. These are perfect! They are absorbent and feel so soft and dry throughout the day. Definitely recommend.
These are the first pads I've got where I don't have to worry anymore at night or during the day when heavy. I'm definitely giving this a 10/10
These are very comfortable and super absorbent, perfect for my heavier days! I highly recommend.
