The Modibodi reusable products you need in your life

If you have have your period...

Did you know that the average menstruating person will use around 15,000 pads and tampons in their life, most of which will end up in landfill as plastic waste? If you want to ditch single-use period products, Modibodi has got you sorted. Its catalogue includes over 10 types of period undies in pretty much every colour and style imaginable. This includes classic bikini cuts, super comfy seamless undies, hi-waisted cuts and G-strings across sizes 8–26.

There are also different options depending on where you are in your cycle from light (1 tampon's worth) and moderate (up to 2 tampons' worth) to heavy (up to 10 tampons' worth).

If you're working out...

Modibodi has 2 essentials for your gym bag: The Active Brief and Active Legging.

You can pick up the briefs in 2 different options. The first is light-moderate for absorbency (suitable for periods and holds up to 2 tampons' worth) and moisture wicking (perf for combatting the sweatiest of workouts). Unlike the regular leak-free undies, the active range is made from breathable Merino wool to keep you cool, dry and say "see ya" to sweat patches.

I've never come across period activewear before, so the Modibodi Active Leggings straight-up blew my mind. The 7/8 leggings have an absorbent leak-proof gusset built into the leggings, which can hold up to 3 tampons' worth. They're a super flattering high-waisted cut and have a drawstring for a super stretchy yet snug fit.

If you're swimming..

Good news, you never have to feel paranoid when swimming on your period again. Turns out that Modibodi also has a range of leak-proof swimwear, including low-cut or high-waisted bikini briefs as well as a gorge one-piece. The swimwear range is designed to suit a light to moderate flow and can hold up to 2 tampons' worth of fluid. Not bad.

The outer fabric dries 3x quicker than typical swimwear, which is handy if you don't have time to dry off in the sun. The briefs are available in a simple black design, which makes it easy to mix and match them with your bikini tops as well.

If you're a new mum...

Breastfeeding bra and cami

Modibodi has a few goodies for the mama bears out there. This includes the Modibodi breastfeeding bra and cami tops. They have a unique leak-proof cup that absorbs milk, wicks away moisture and odours. It also means you can ditch the disposable breast pads for good. Both the bra and cami have front clips and a built-in internal sling to make 1-handed feeding easier. In what can only be described as black magic, they also have flexi-fit sizing which adjusts up to 3 sizes and adapts to your body as it changes.

Maternity brief

Modibodi also has 2 types of undies that you can rock during and after pregnancy. The maternity briefs have a wide V-shaped waistband which sits snuggly below your bump or post-baby belly. It also uses Modibodi's most absorbent lining ever to handle heavy discharge, postpartum bleeding or bladder leaks.

The maternity briefs are available in light-moderate (which offers support equivalent to 2 tampons) or maxi-24hrs absorbency, which can be worn for an entire day and hold up to 10 tampons' worth.

Postpartum control brief

The postpartum briefs also protect against discharge, postpartum bleeding or bladder leaks, but they have a high waist cut for targeted tummy control and back support. They also feature an absorbent antimicrobial lining, so you won't have to worry about odours, stains or leaks.

For your baby...

Over 800 million disposable nappies end up in Australia's landfill each year. Yikes. Modibodi's nappy is a comfier and cuter reusable alternative that's better for your budget and the planet.

The easy all-in-one design means minimal fuss and maximum comfort for your bébé. They're soft on the skin, odour-resistant and use a moisture-wicking floating black polybrush lining that dries super fast. If you have any doubts, they're scientifically tested to hold up to 1,026ml (with a nappy booster in place).
