- Layer 1 – Absorbs and wicks away moisture
- Layer 2 – Breathable waterproof barrier (goodbye leaks)
- Layer 3 – Leak-resistant outer fabric to keep you totally secure and fresh
Sounds a bit like sorcery, right? It’s simply clever science. You can learn more about how it works here.

There are a few things that make us stand out from your standard period underwear brand. One huge difference is our zero-bulk gusset.
Our period undies are designed to be chic, stylish, comfy and ultra-thin while offering the best period protection possible. Our undies also feature a full-length gusset and all-over leakproof protection to keep you covered, front to back.
Many people choose to make the switch to period underwear as their period care of choice for many reasons, including comfort, style, eco-friendly brownie points and minimising contact with harmful toxins often found in disposable pads and tampons.
Once you try Undercovers, you find you can’t live without them!
Don’t worry, we promise it’s not rocket science. Simply:
- Rinse under cold water until the water runs clear
- Pop into a wash bag and wash on a cold gentle machine wash
- Line dry in the shade (eco-friendly points!)
We know it’s tempting on those lazy laundry days, but please avoid putting your Undercovers in the dryer, ironing or using fabric softener/bleach. Heat and chemicals can adversely affect the absorbency magic of your period undies.
