No. Kotex^® Soft & Smooth Air pads feature a high density of polymers that absorb liquid 50X their own weight. Instantly. Which means a comfy, leakage-free experience overall!

Kotex^® Soft & Smooth Air pads were specially designed for regular flow days. However, we all experience different periods. And if that means your flow is on the lighter side throughout your days and nights, then these pads are perfect for your entire cycle!

Ultimately, this depends on your type of flow. For those with heavier flow, we recommend changing pads more often.

Kotex^® Soft & Smooth Air is our thinnest pad yet! At 0.8mm, this super ultrathin pad was made to be forgotten. Available in 24cm for day use.

Kotex Soft & Smooth Ultrathin^® is softer than cotton and super-thin, without any compromise on absorbency. Available in 23cm, 28cm and 32cm for day and night use.

Kotex^® Soft & Smooth Slim Overnight is the only pad range to feature pro-active guards that rise against leaks. Available in 28cm, 32cm, 35cm and 41cm for heavy flow days or nights.

At this stage, Kotex^® Soft & Smooth Air only comes in 24cm for day use. For an ultrathin pad in a longer length, do try Kotex Soft & Smooth Ultrathin® which comes in 28cm and 32cm.

Our pads are good to go for 3 years from the date of production, (found on the side of the pack).
