TOM Organic

I don’t know about you, but when we are talking about our lady bits I’d like to think – due to the sensitive nature of the region – we’d be extra careful about what goes in to our bodies. I’m talking about tampons. Ever heard of Toxic Shock Syndrome? Look it up – it’s a nasty little thing that happens due to the toxic ingredients found in most tampons, such as bleach, pesticides, herbicides and other nasties. TOM are Australia’s only 100% certified organic and biodegradable tampons, and are as prettily designed as they are good for you. Find them in nifty little packs (as well as cute trios for travelling) at Chemist Warehouse, selected stockists and online, and help keep your nether regions au natural!
