Why Choose Bamboo-Derived Fibers for the Most Sensitive Part of Your Period Underwear

When it comes to period underwear, the part that matters most isn’t the color or the cut — it’s the fabric that sits closest to your body. This is the layer that’s in contact with your most sensitive skin day and night, so it needs to be soft, safe, breathable, and gentle. That’s why, at EveryLife, we’re intentional about every fiber we choose — especially here.

For that all-important top layer of our EveryLife Women Period Underwear (known as the gusset), we use 55% bamboo-derived viscose. And once you understand why, you’ll never want anything else against your skin.

Gentle by Nature: Why Bamboo Viscose Feels So Soft

If you’ve ever felt bamboo fabric, you know how luxuriously soft it is — almost like a second skin. That’s why, for the all-important top layer of our period underwear (known as the gusset), we use a blend of bamboo-derived viscose and soft performance fibers (40% Polyamide, 5% Elastane). This carefully chosen combination gives you the best of both worlds — the natural softness and breathability of bamboo viscose, with added stretch and durability for long-lasting comfort and fit.

This isn’t just about comfort (though that matters, too). That silky softness helps reduce friction and irritation, so you can wear our period underwear all day — and all night — without even thinking about it.

Breathable & Moisture-Wicking to Keep You Feeling Fresh

Breathability is a must for period underwear. The skin in your vaginal area is highly absorbent, and trapped heat and moisture can throw off your body’s natural balance — even leading to irritation or discomfort.

Bamboo-derived fibers are naturally breathable and moisture-wicking, meaning they help pull moisture away from your skin and allow airflow to keep things dry and comfortable. It’s a small detail with a big impact: staying dry and balanced is essential not just for comfort, but for supporting your body’s natural microbiome.

Why What’s Closest to Your Skin Matters Most

Not all period underwear is created equal. Many brands rely solely on harsh synthetics in the top layer of their gusset — the part that touches your most sensitive skin — which can trap heat and moisture and increase the risk of irritation.

At EveryLife Women, we take the opposite approach. The top layer of our gusset is made with a bamboo-derived viscose blend to ensure it’s as soft, breathable, and gentle as possible — while still being highly functional and supportive. Underneath that, multiple absorbent layers do the heavy lifting, locking away moisture and preventing leaks, while a discreet waterproof barrier offers extra confidence without bulk.

Designed With Intention — From the First Layer Up

Every detail of our period underwear is designed to support you:

• Gusset 1 - Top Layer (Closest to Skin): A bamboo-derived viscose blend for softness, breathability, and comfort.
  
  

• Gusset 2 - Absorbent Core: Multi-layer protection that draws moisture away from your skin and locks it in.
  
  

• Gusset 3 - Leakproof Barrier: A discreet, waterproof layer that keeps you feeling secure without sacrificing comfort.
  
  

• Gusset 4 - Exterior: A soft, flexible outer layer that provides structure, stretch, and a smooth, secure fit under clothing.

It’s all part of our belief that what touches your body should support your body — never work against it.

A Better Period Starts With Better Materials

When it comes to period care, small details make a big difference. Choosing bamboo-derived fibers for the most sensitive part of our underwear isn’t just a design choice — it’s a reflection of our commitment to clean, intentional, and thoughtful period care. Because you deserve products that honor your body’s design and keep you comfortable, protected, and confident every single day of your cycle.
