Preparation and Usage
Instructions
TOTM applicator tampons are available in 4 absorbencies:
Light < 6g
Medium 6g – 9g
Super 9g – 12g
Super Plus 12g – 15g
It's a good tip to twist the two applicator tubes in opposite directions just to check the cardboard isn't stiff as this will make insertion easier.
What you should know about Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS):
Using tampons has been associated with TSS – a rare but serious disease. Always use the lowest absorbency for your needs and change your tampon regularly every 4-8 hours. You can also alternate with use of a pad instead of a tampon at least once a day. Read and save the leaflet which is included.

great and no nasties
love that there is no nasties and they are organic, I always buy these now and will not use any other brand that isnt organic. They are just as good as other well known brands, and better for you
Poorly designed
The applicator is very uncomfortable and generally fails its single purpose. They have decided on a design whereby the applicator has what is essentially a small punch hole through it to bind the cardboard pieces together and stop it coming apart. That along with the fact it has absolutely no grip and sharp claws on the end, just means it is impossible to get in with the applicator and the tampon ends up painfully positioned or in the bin. I tried all sizes and they are all the same. Creates a lot of waste since the failure rate is so high. The tampon itself also expands more in length than width, meaning it is less effective and more uncomfortable to wear than other brands products. I would not buy from this brand again unless I was convinced they overhauled the entire product. I only bought these because I couldnt get the ones in the ice cream tub, which are pure ease and luxury to use, by comparison.
not enough absorbency
I like the TOTM regular tampons, but the super ones do not have enough absorbency at all and on heavier days felt like they were going to fall out of me. Ive never had that feeling with other super tampons before. The applicator isnt easy to use either, I wouldnt buy again.
hard to push through
hard to grip on to the applicator. I need to pull the tampon out for a cm to be able to push the whole thing in. very messy! until they improve I'd avoid. not sure others have the same problem.
best organic tampon so far
Absorbency wise these are the best organic tampons I've tried, the applicator was a bit sticky, but not enough to put me off using them again
Awful
They are uncomfortable to insert, the applicator does not glide easily and they are not as absorbent as other 'super' tampons, resulting in leakage.
