They contain no nasties- Vegans make a conscious choice over what they eat, however a lot of people adopting this lifestyle don't consider what sanitary products they're using. They often have harmful chemicals in them. The ingredients in mainstream tampon brands might include pesticides, bleached cotton, toxins, viscose rayon, dyes and fragrances. None of these are kind to the outside or the inside of your body.
Vegan on Female First
They cause less irritation- Tampons that are made from 100% ethically sourced natural cotton reduce the risk of allergic reactions to some of the ingredients that are found other brands. Periods become even less of a burden on this delicate area.
They're not tested on animals- Including ingredients that are not tested on animals in vegan tampons means they are best suited to who will be using them the most- human women. They haven't caused unnecessary pain and suffering to an animal that has no requirement for them in the first place.
They are biodegradable- Most brands of tampons aren't biodegradable. Given that vegans are environmentally conscious, they try to use products that help not hinder the planet- this should include including sanitary products. The average woman will use 11,000 tampons in her lifetime- these have an environmental consequence if they are not biodegradable.
Their production is environmentally friendly- Vegan tampons are farmed, packaged and created in an environmentally friendly facility giving you peace of mind that the product is of high quality.
