Playtex Sport Tampon Review

One of the many wonderful items I found in my Deanslist Voxbox from Influenster was Playtex Sport Tampons.

Playtex Sport Fresh Balance tampons run for about 3.99 a box. I received the Regular absorbency. 
"Introducing NEW Playtex Sport Fresh Balance with Odor Shield technology. It's designed to neutralize odors for ultimate freshness on and off the field. Combined with a 360 degree design for Sport Level Protection, you can go the distance. Play On."

Over all I really like these tampons. I don't have any problems with leaks with these, which I have had with other brands in the past. They are also very small but very absorbent, I didn't have to change these every hour I was able to use them for a reasonable amount of time. If I bought these I would probably get a slightly bigger absorbency for heavier times, but for being regular these held a good amount. I was really impressed that when it was time to take the tampon out the entire tampon was full, I have had other tampons that don't completely absorb and then start leaking early. These completely absorb until they cant fit anymore which is great! I hate a half wasted tampon. The applicator and the tampon itself are both designed to be very slim so they are very comfortable to put in and remain comfortable while in. The packaging is cute and very easy to open. The only thing I do not like about these tampons is the scent. I am not fond of scented tampons in the first place, I just don't think its healthy to put something with a scent inside of you. The scent of these is like old woman poparie (Sorry I cant figure out the spelling but its the dried up flower petals and such that some people put in their home as décor/air freshener). The scent could definitely be improved or just taken out which is what I would prefer. Remove the scent and these tampons are near perfect!

 Here is the cute packaging of one of the tampons. Its got cute little images of athletes which I think makes it easy to tell the difference if you have multiple different tampons at home or in your purse, you'll know these are your active ones.

 Here are what I like to call the bunny ears which help make it super easy to open up the wrapper. In between the ears is the start of the dotted line that makes it easy to tear open and stop before you completely rip the package in half. I really like that because I like to stick the used applicators back inside the package before throwing away, a bit more sanitary, and hate when the package rips into pieces.

 Nice and easy open, with a clean rip and packaging still in one piece.

 Cute pink, slim applicator. Easy to grip and use. Comfortable application.

 Itty bitty, but super absorbent tampon.

The 360 design is one of those skirt designs that kind of molds to fit your unique shape and help prevent leaks.

I was really impressed overall and definitely see myself using these tampons in the future, especially if they have ones that aren't scented. I would absolutely recommend these tampons to a friend because they are so comfortable, absorbent and don't leak! If you've tried these comment below and let me know what you think :]



Thank you Influenster and Playtex for letting me try these :]
