Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Black Period Pads — from how they work to how to wash them.

About Our Pads

Why are the pads black?
Our signature black absorbent core makes stains invisible — not hidden, not masked, but genuinely invisible. Your pads look brand new after wash #1, wash #10, and wash #100. No more scrubbing, soaking, or pre-treating.
What’s the difference between Super Pads and Liners?
The Black Super Pads Set ($49.95) includes 4 heavy-flow pads designed for your heaviest days and overnight protection. The Black Extended Liner Set ($44.95) includes 5 lighter liners perfect for light flow days, spotting, or daily backup. The Complete Freedom Bundle ($79.95) includes both sets — saving you $14.95.
Who is Topsy Daisy?
Black Period Pads is a focused brand by Topsy Daisy, an established reusable period product company with thousands of happy customers. Your order ships with Topsy Daisy packaging. Same quality, same team — just a focused brand for women who want the stain-free advantage of black pads.
What are the pads made from?
Organic cotton against your skin. The absorbent core uses a combination of bamboo charcoal and microfiber for maximum absorption. No PFAS, no plastics, no mystery chemicals. Every material is chosen for safety and durability.

Using Your Pads

How do I wash reusable pads?
Simpler than you think:
  • Rinse in cold water after use
  • Toss in the washing machine on a cold or warm cycle with regular detergent
  • Hang dry or tumble dry on low
Avoid bleach, fabric softener, and dryer sheets — they reduce absorbency. Every order includes our Stain-Free Wash Guide with full care instructions.
How long do the pads last?
With proper care, our pads last 5+ years of regular use. That’s hundreds of disposable pads you’ll never need to buy.
How absorbent are they?
The Super Pads are designed for heavy flow days and overnight protection. They hold the equivalent of 3-4 regular disposable pads. The Liners are designed for light flow, spotting, and backup protection.
Do they move around or leak?
Each pad has snap wings that secure it to your underwear. When properly sized and fastened, the pads stay firmly in place. The waterproof backing prevents leaks.
Can I get specific patterns?
We use a variety of fun, colorful fabric patterns — foxes, peacock feathers, geometric shapes, florals, and more. Patterns are assigned randomly to each order, so your set will always be a unique surprise. The absorbent side (the part that matters) is always black.
