Period underwear: Why girls Love Luna
Our teens' period underwear is designed with four layers of protection: An outer layer that minimises odour, a waterproof lining to prevent leaks, an absorbent layer, and a cotton layer that keeps skin dry.
But there are so many other reasons teens in Australia Love Luna:
- Period chats: Unlike pads and tampons, there’s no learning curve. Period undies make your period feel less scary.
- They last (almost) forever: Simply wear, wash and reuse.
- Discreet: No bulks, no discomfort.
- Longer protection: Fewer changes than pads and tampons.
- Cute & comfy: Stretchy, smooth & available in a mix of designs. So you can keep feeling like you.
Teen period underwear vs. menstrual cups, pads & tampons
That first period often creates questions for kids and parents: What’s the best product for me?
Not too long ago, pads and tampons were the only real options for girls in Australia. But period underwear has changed that, offering a comfortable, convenient and sustainable alternative to traditional disposable pads and tampons.
Period undies are made to move with your body, feel softer against the skin, reduce the risk of leaks, and usually require fewer changes.
Plus, most pads and tampons aren’t reusable or biodegradable. One study found that Australians who menstruate spend almost $10,000 in their lifetime on disposable period products. Their impact on landfill waste is huge, too. Period underwear, on the other hand, can be washed and reworn.
Period knickers offer a more comfortable, simple experience for first-time periods and beyond. And for parents, they mean fewer trips to the store and less waste.
Menstrual cups are another choice to consider. Made to use over and over again, they’re more economical and sustainable than disposable pads or tampons. They’re soft, comfortable and suitable for all-day wear, but can be tricky for first-timers.

Questions about girls’ period underwear?
How does teen period underwear work?
Period underwear is reusable, holding your blood like a pad, but offering the comfort of regular underwear. Thanks to moisture-wicking fibres, our undies are good for air flow and are quick drying.
Plus, they’re made from super-absorbent materials that can absorb up to 15-20 ml (3-4 regular tampons) of blood.
At the end of each wear, simply rinse the blood from the undies and pop them in a wash bag to rewear them again and again.
Can teens wear period underwear for indoor and outdoor activities?
Period underwear for teens and tweens was created so you can carry on doing what you love, without feeling unsure or uncomfortable.
From sleepovers with friends to starring on stage or competing in sports, you won’t need to worry about leaks getting in the way.
Can teens swim in their period undies?
Period underwear releases blood when rinsed, so we don’t recommend swimming in it. The good news is that period swimwear for teens is specifically designed to keep your period safely locked away, whether you’re at the pool, beach or waterpark. So, you don’t have to cancel the fun stuff when your period calls.
