How Does Period Swimwear Work?
Period swimwear is designed to look and feel just like regular swimsuits, but with a bit of smart tech built in. They have special layers in the lining that absorb menstrual flow, lock in leaks, so you can swim comfortably — no cups or tampons needed (unless you have a very heavy flow and want extra protection).
Here’s how it works:
-
💧 Absorbent layer: This soaks up your period blood — usually the equivalent of about 1 tampons’ worth.
-
🔒 Leak-proof barrier: A thin waterproof layer keeps everything inside so you don’t get leaks in the pool or ocean.
-
👙 Quick-dry outer fabric: The part that touches water works just like a normal costume, so it feels light and dries quickly.
You can swim in them, surf, or chill at the beach — and when you’re done, just rinse them out and pop them in the wash (no special detergent needed).
The Blushproof Period Swimwear is made from Lycra that is UPF50+ and Chlorine resistant so if you wash them after use, they will last for years!
