Washing and Care Instructions

Wear ’em Out Reusable Period Pads

Be sure to give your pads a good rinse in cold water when you take them off to minimise staining, whilst our fabric is stain resistant, it can still happen (the Light Grey option is more likely to show stains if this bothers you, maybe stick to our Navy pads).
When you’re ready to wash your pads, you can wash them by hand (throw them in the shower with you for ease) or you can throw them in with the rest of your laundry (up to 40°C). Your usual detergent will be fine, but don’t use fabric softener, as this will affect the pads’ absorbency.

Top Tip – If you want to tackle any stains naturally, 4 tbs of bicarbonate of soda mixed with 60ml of cold water make a great stain removing paste, rinse stain in cold water to remove blood, apply the paste and leave to it work for 3 hours, then wash as normal. We recommend that your pads are put through a washing machine cycle at the end of your period, then flattened out to dry.

To dry them, we recommend hanging them up to air-dry, hanging them in an airing cupboard is fine if you have one, but don’t put them on direct heat or into a tumble dryer as this may cause shrinkage.

Wear ’em Out Bags

Our bags can be washed in the same way as our reusable pads, throw them in the same wash as your pads at the end of your cycle or at any time.
