As anyone who menstruates knows, swimming on your period can be more hassle than it’s worth sometimes—or at least it was until the invention of period-proof swimwear. If you have yet to make the switch to the sustainable (and honestly, just more comfortable and less stressful) option, here’s some incentive: global period-wear brand Modibodi and worldwide iconic brand SmileyWorld have teamed up to create a new limited-edition period-proof swimwear and underwear collection just in time for summer.
The ‘Self Love Club Swimwear’ line features a collection of styles sporting the iconic SmileyWorld winky icon in ModiBodi’s leak-proof technology. Designed to hold up to eight tampons’ worth, going to the beach on your period just got so much easier. With adult and teen swimwear ranging from boyshorts to one pieces, there is something for every style, and we think it’s pretty affordable too, with nothing over $119.
A woman uses 17,000 pads and tampons in her lifetime that end up in landfill, so if you’re trying to live a more sustainable life, it’s time to add period swimwear to your summer wardrobe. Still on the fence? Modibodi will let you try the range risk-free for 60 days.
Keep an eye out for more SmileyWorld and Modibodi collabs, with a new underwear line dropping on 15th October and even more releases in October so you can smile all summer long. Check out the full range here.
