big maintenance of your Moodies

Sometimes the pants can use major maintenance after a few months, so that the absorbent layer works optimally again and any residues that are left behind are removed.

This is especially the case if you occasionally think that your panties are leaking more quickly, or if you think that they are starting to smell a little more.

With a more thorough cleaning once every three months you ensure that the Moodies last as long as possible, you can prevent unpleasant odors and everything remains hygienic and clean.

Step 1

clean

Apply a small amount of liquid detergent to the crotch area and rub it in gently. DO NOT soak the panties in water; rinse the detergent thoroughly. Repeat this until no soap or red water comes out of the panties.

Step 2

natural vinegar and oil

Then put the panties in the washing machine with some natural vinegar and a few drops of essential oil in the fabric softener compartment. This can be done with the scent of lavender, jasmine, eucalyptus or rosemary. If the washing machine is not suitable for natural vinegar, do the major maintenance by hand washing.

Please note! Do NOT wash with pods, as pods contain fabric softener.

Step 3

to hang

Hang them with the cross facing outwards so that gravity can do its work properly. ;) DO NOT put them in the dryer. The dryer can damage the third layer in the pants, which can cause the pants to malfunction more quickly.

frequently asked questions about girls' menstrual underwear

Should I wash menstrual underwear before using it?

Yes, indeed! That is very important.

Not only from a hygienic point of view, but especially because the absorbent material in the panties does not work if it has not been washed first.

Compare it to a new towel! You won't get dry if you dry yourself with it if you haven't washed it first.

So first wash at 40 degrees! And check the washing instructions !
How often can you use and wash moodies menstrual panties?

If the washing instructions are followed, moodies will last for at least 50-60 washes, so depending on how often you wear them, you can use them for at least 3 years.
what do I do with my moodies menstrual pants after I rinse them?

Once you have worn the moodies, rinse them under the tap or in the shower. Then you hang the moodies over the edge of your laundry basket or somewhere else until you start washing. Of course, you don't have to do separate laundry for the moodies.

Make sure you don't use fabric softener (pods also contain fabric softener) and don't put them in the dryer.
can I spin moodies menstrual underwear?

You can simply spin your moodies with your other laundry. Do not put the moodies in the dryer afterwards, as this is not good for the water-repellent layer. Hang the moodies inside out to dry.

With the cross out.
I put my moodies menstrual pants in the dryer, can I no longer use them?

It is not recommended to put the moodies in the dryer, but if this happens accidentally, it does not mean that it no longer works.

The moodies will wear out faster the more often they are put in the dryer.
why can't I use fabric softener?

Fabric softener puts a kind of layer over your laundry, so to speak, that does not improve absorption.

You can also use organic natural vinegar instead of fabric softener (in the container where you normally put fabric softener). This softens the fabric, has an antibacterial effect and has the added advantage that it is good against limescale from your washing machine.
I used fabric softener, can I no longer use my moodies?

Fabric softener places a kind of layer around the water-repellent and absorbent layer that can affect its effectiveness.

If it happens, rinse your pants with water and a little natural vinegar and then put them in the washing machine at 40 degrees. Then try your moodies at home or in a safe place first.
Why can't I soak the panties after use?

Soaking your panties in water causes the water-repellent layer in the crotch to become more brittle. This layer prevents leaks, so soaking them will gradually make them less effective.
