🌍 Greenwashing and organic period panties

An organic panty just to look cute? It’s all very well to use the organic argument, but what does an “organic period panty” actually mean? Because under the organic label, you’ll find a lot of greenwashing. In the end, it’s hard to know what “organic” really stands for.

The phenomenon of greenwashing doesn’t help. Aware of how important organic products are to consumers, more and more brands are promoting their supposedly green and eco-friendly side without really living up to it.
Using eco-claims to polish a brand image and mislead customers – that’s greenwashing, and it’s everywhere in advertising and marketing today.

At Louloucup, we remain transparent. On our blog, in our FAQ, in our complete guides and on our product pages, we share as much information as possible about the design, manufacturing and composition of all our menstrual products so that customers have all the information they need to shop and order with complete peace of mind.

🌿 The benefits of organic cotton

We chose organic cotton because this material offers many advantages and benefits.

Being organic and therefore non-toxic protects your intimate area. You can wear your period underwear with complete confidence. No risk of allergies or reactions.

It’s a healthy material for your body and your vulva. With period underwear, there’s no risk of toxic shock syndrome. Nothing like tampons, panty liners and disposable pads made with chemical substances classified as carcinogenic (dioxins), AOX (halogenated organic compounds such as chlorine), herbicides (glyphosate) and even insecticides.

Organic cotton is a natural, extremely soft fabric. We chose it also because it offers real comfort to users. During your period, it feels so good to slip into super soft, comfy underwear!

The organic cotton lining is suitable for all menstrual flows, all types of periods, from light flow to heavy flow, for spotting, but also for bladder leaks, discharge and very heavy or hemorrhagic periods.

An organic period panty made in Europe

Like our Made in France menstrual cup, we were committed to local production. Thus, our organic cotton menstrual panties are made in Europe. We prioritize road transport, reducing our carbon footprint compared to air freight.

In France, we design and create all our styles, so our period panties are partly French-made.

We source our fabric in Italy. Certified and labeled, the chosen fabrics are safe and healthy for your body and intimate area.

The panties are designed in Portugal, a country renowned for its expertise in textile manufacturing. The production workshops are audited and hold ISO 9001, BSCI, and OEKO-TEX 100 certifications. They guarantee fair, respectful, and dignified working conditions.

Our other responsible commitments at Louloucup

  • As a reminder, at Louloucup we are proud to offer products that make no compromises between price and quality. We are aware of period poverty. That’s why we chose to offer menstrual panties at reduced prices. It was essential for us to remain as accessible as possible so that as many women as possible can wear menstrual panties without breaking the bank. That’s why you can find the Loulou panty starting at €22.90 (multi-pack).
  • Lower prices mean lower quality? That was out of the question at Loulou. The quality of all our products (swimwear, cups, and panties) is carefully designed and crafted with patience and love. Quality checks are frequent and regular to consistently maintain exemplary quality and flawless finishes.

  • Our organic cotton menstrual panties are pretty and feminine. With beautiful, fun, trendy colors or delicate lace, we wanted panties and tangas that make us feel beautiful and sexy.

  • We are also committed to offering vegan menstrual panties (made without any animal-derived materials) and cruelty-free products (every stage of production is carried out with respect for animals, with no animal testing).

  • We pack and ship your orders in recyclable packaging.

  • Every month, we support various social and environmental organizations by donating a portion of our revenue.

  • All our panties are presented on the site in a natural and original way, without retouching, featuring models of different sizes.

🌼 At Loulou, we value transparency!

We wouldn’t be completely transparent if we didn’t mention the Clara – Heavy flow style, the Mia – Light flow style, or our range of menstrual swimsuits.

These products are made in China in a garment factory certified ISO 9001, BSCI. This audited factory also works to limit plastic production.

We use this particular workshop for their essential expertise in assembling certain laces and highly technical fabrics. All fabrics used to make these panties and swimsuits are approved by the American FDA (Food and Drug Administration).

In summary, our organic period panties are organic cotton menstrual panties that are super absorbent while remaining super discreet. They are completely reliable and prevent any unfortunate leaks. They are waterproof while still allowing your skin to breathe.
