NOT ABSORBENT
I decided to try something new, just to see if there was a better unbleached tampon than my regular product. Compared to my regular product, this Organyc brand is not a good choice. My pics include comparison for the Organyc and my regular brand (Emerita), both Super absorbency. At fir st glance, the Organyc tampons appear to be wider, and are much more portable (the plunger is stored in the applicator with the tampon, when ready to use, pull the plunger from the applicator (won't come out of the applicator end, don't worry) and use as normal. Comparing the two brands, they don't look much different in size, but I can tell you the Organyc brand feels much larger upon application. Not super uncomfortable, but I wouldn't give these to my daughter who isn't sexually active but using tampons for maybe sports or whatever reason, I would definitely find another brand, like Emerita).
The applicator tips appear different, but I don't think one is better than the other in my opinion of product usage, they both are rounded and that is helpful either way.
Most importantly, absorbency of the Organyc brand is AWFUL. Just to not have to throw these away, because I don't like to waste my money, I must use a regular or overnight type of pad with these (no panty liners, they won't help anything when using this tampon on a regular-to-heavy flow kind of day). On my heaviest flow day, I started out using Organyc brand, went through two tampons in four hours time and had full pads along with these Super absorbency tampons. When I remove the tampon, they don't appear to have much soaked into them, only at the very top, and at the string. Disappointing. I don't know what is happening for these to not absorb AND have major leakage. I switched to my usual brand after using two of these and did not leak after 5 1/2 hours with my regular brand.
One perk to this brand is that the cotton does stay intact while in use, I have tried other awful brands that leave cotton pieces (not just lint, but actual pieces!) behind. This one stays together and the string is designed well.
I will NOT buy Organyc again based on the absorbency factor, and I do not recommend this brand of tampon.
