Eco-Conscious Periods with DAME
Are you looking for a way to be more eco-conscious when it comes to your periods? Are you wanting to try out reusable products but are unsure where to start and how to go about it? Then let me introduce you to DAME.
DAME
I thought it would be best to let DAME tell you all about what they are looking to do and the changes they want to make:
“We’re on a mission to make periods positive for people and the planet. The period industry is full of plastic, chemicals and stigma. Everyone who bleeds deserves better. That’s why we’ve created comfortable and sustainable alternatives to the outdated, mainstream options. Now the best choice for your body is the best choice for your planet. It’s about bloody time. DAME is here to change that, with comfortable, sustainable alternatives.”
In fact, DAME has made sure they offer a huge range of eco-friendly alternatives which include; pads, pants, tampons (and applicators) as well as storage solutions and accessories to try and make your time of the month easier to bare.
Reusable Pad Set with Dry Bag
If you are looking to start off on the road to sustainable period products, then a good place to start could be with towels. Made with DAMEdry™ technology, they include 5 layers which work together to be fast-wicking and odour-proof.
The Reusable Pad Set includes 4 pieces:
- Liner Pad x 1 ○
- Regular Pad x 1 ○○
- Night Pad x1 ○○○
- Watertight Dry Bag x 1
The Liner Pad comes in at 18.5cm long and is best for very light flows, bladder leaks, spotting and discharge. The Regular Pad is 20.5cm long and absorbs around the equivalent of 1 super tampon (9-12 grams). While the Night Pad is 28 cm long and absorbs around the equivalent of 1 DAME super plus tampon (12-25 grams).
This all comes complete with a watertight dry bag, which means, where ever you maybe you will know your used pad is safe until you can get home and clean it.
A Reusable Pad Set with Dry Bag from DAME comes in at £39.99 and over a 5-year period is proven to help save you money.

I would like to be more eco-friendly on my period so would love to try the reusable pads
I’d like to try the high waist period pants. No more ruined underwear!
I really want to try the pads, but the bag is a good idea and the wheatbag, these will be great for my daughter when she is ready.
The reusable applicator sounds great because I can’t use tampons without plastic applicators but I always think about how wasteful they are.
I’ve had my eye on a few pairs of reusable period pants, but haven’t been sure what brand or flow I need. 🌍
The reusable period pads as they look really comfy and will save so much money xx
I’d love to try the shortie period pants, they look great!
They look really great, I would love to try the reusable pads or the pants actually! And its really nice to see models wearing them that I can actually relate to!
The Thong Period pants as they look really comfy!
I would pick the Shortie Period Pant for my daughter as I think she would find them useless at times
The period pants look amazing, wow!
I’d like to try the Period Pants. I think they’d be great for peace of mind.
Light cream Dame storage bags would be a nice and discreet storage
I would like to try the reusable pads, and the Shortie Period Pants.
I’ve heard such good things about reusable pads, would definitely like to give them a go
I don’t need these anymore but would love to win to donate to charity to go to Africa or Ukraine
The reusable tampon applicator as it would save a lot of plastic
The Shortie Period Pants look perfect for me, I love shortie pants, so much more comfortable than regular pants
Reusable products are great, I’d like to try the period pants really handy.
I already use reusable pads and it has saved me a fortune this year, and saves the planet. I no longer have periods, I had a full hysterectomy aged 25 years old (due to endometriosis/fibroids), BUT I have a prolapsed bladder with incontinence. So I use up to 3 pads per day, and they work great for that too! I use the night time pads as they are bigger and more absorbent, so that would be my choice from DAME , more night time pads!
The period pants look great – and the wheat bag would be fab too! Lots of great products!
I can safely say that at my current age I have no interest in these products
My days for these products are done but a great idea
I would like to try the cotton tampons and the reusable applicator. What a great company. I am not 100 percent sure that I would want to use the pads when I am at work etc but if I was to stay in all day these would be perfect but I would love to try them to see how I feel then.
I really want to try the shortie period pants. I have pretty heavy periods so I’ve always been anxious to try period pants in case they can’t absorb everything. So the cost of one made it really hard to risk that chance and sample one. I guess for me, pants would be the best as it’s one less thing to apply on, less worry it would move out of place and less padded in that area
