U by Kotex Balance Ultra Thin Pads with Wings, Overnight Absorbency, 38 Count

They are long enough, thin and have a cotton feel. I have tried a couple of brands and I prefer these over the others. Great for sleeping without staining the sheets and can also be worn during day. I love them.

Buying pads for my daughter is like trying to select a royal throne—there are standards, people. Texture must be soft but not weird, wings must stay put (apparently some "flap like sad little flags"), and absorbency must handle the apocalypse, but feel like nothing's there.Enter these U by Kotex Balance Overnight Pads. She took one look and said, "These don’t look annoying." High praise. After a trial run, she declared, "These are actually good." That’s practically a love letter coming from a teenager.They stay in place, handle heavy nights like champs, and don’t feel like you're wearing a mattress. The wings aren’t floppy, they’re committed. No leaks, no complaints, no eye-rolls. And if my picky daughter gives them the nod, trust me—they’re worth it.Mom victory unlocked. Stocking up immediately before she changes her mind.

I previously used always ultra thin size 4 and 5 for overnight use. They are not soft and irritated my skin. I threw those away when I got these Kotex ultra thin. I purchased the Kotex ultra thin overnight (orange labeling) and ultra thin extra heavy overnight (purple labeling). They are extremely absorbent and comfortable to wear. The top layer of the pad is soft and not scratchy like always. The ultra thin extra heavy overnight is extremely long so I will most likely only use them on my heaviest night. Otherwise I’ll be using the regular ultra thin overnight. I also purchased a box of the Kotex ultra thin overnight (regular, not extra heavy, she said the extra heavy was too long for her liking) for my teen daughter. She says they are very comfortable to wear and she is picky. They work well for her for both overnight and school days so she can have extra coverage to assure no leaks. They are thin and comfortable enough to where they don’t bother her during the school day. She prefers to have extra coverage during the school day just in case she can’t reach a bathroom in time. When you are wearing these pads you can seriously hardly feel them. They can handle a full overnight sleep even on heavy days. My teenager sleeps for like 10 hours straight and they hold up great, she says. We will be ordering the Kotex ulta thin “heavy” (green labeling) next to have an option for more moderate to light days. Like I mentioned my teenager daughter and I had been using always ultra thin sizes 2, 4 and 5 for ages and we also tried always infinity size 2 and 5. These Kotex are way better than the always mentioned. The Kotex stay in place and absorb better. The always infinity are a weird shape and shift around and the always ulta thins are not even nearly as comfortable as Kotex. If you have sensitive skin like we do I encourage you to try these Kotex pads. We will be switching over all our pads and not going back to always. You can’t beat the price for the quality. We tried some expensive Cora pads and they were soft but the quality was meh. Not worth it. Kotex wins hands down for quality, comfort, absorption, staying in place and value.

Size 4 these are very long be aware especially if you are petite. I have a picture of always radiant flex foam size 5 next to UKotex balance size 4. Look at the difference. They definitely do the job if you looking for protection, if flow isn't heavy or very petite size down.

My previous favorite overnight pad was from a different brand and they suddenly stopped making them. I was so happy to discover these. They are so thin but work so well.

I buy these because they have the most coverage for heavy days/nights.

Love this! I've bought them several times and will keep doing it, the shape is great for my body type. Absorption is very good

These are literally the only pads I ever buy as someone with a really heavy period, and because of the charcoal it doesn’t smell and the most important feature; no pad butt!!
