I have been an avid user of Tampax Pearl since I first discovered them in 2002. I was drawn to the product after hearing so much about the plastic applicator and the contoured grip. My biggest difficulty with tampons has been getting them in - my fingers would often slip off of the finger grip, and/or the applicator itself would collapse inwards, making it nearly impossible to push the plunger in.
But the Tampax Pearls were… different. The applicator was made of sturdy plastic. Not only was the finger grip “ribbed”, but not a circle shape. No, it was more of a rounded rectangle shape, which made gripping very easy. The tampons themselves fit very nicely and snugly. They didn’t slide around, and they didn’t spring any leaks, which eliminated the need for panty-liners. I have used junior, regular and super absorbency, and am very pleased with these tampons.

I seriously LOVE these, I am a big girl and the pads just seems to feel bulky and they don’t work very well. So, I decided to make the switch to the tampax pearls and have been using it ever since. I do want to try the KOTEX flower open tampons though maybe you could review those. Tampax did a really good job designing the Pearls.
