I recieved my pack a week before i was to have my periods. Yesterday as i went in for an operation i had no reason to panick for i knew my compact will be there. No mess no fuss. Easy to use and easy to carry anytime, anywhere. I love the short applicator which is smooth for insertion and no mess like using a tampon without an applicator. The pricing is also good. Ladies who didnt get the opportunity to get a free pack, run to your neares store to get them i highly recommend this brand
