KAO LAURIER Protection hygiénique 25 cm 17 unités

Laurier is Kao's feminine care brand in Japan, and this is the 25cm ultra thin version with wings, supplied seventeen to a pack. 25cm is a daytime length, long enough for a normal to heavier flow day without moving into the overnight lengths.

Japanese pads are noticeably thinner than most of what is sold in North America, and that is a genuine engineering difference rather than a marketing one. Japanese manufacturers invested heavily in superabsorbent polymer technology in the pad core, which allowed the bulk to come out without sacrificing capacity. The practical result is a pad that holds a full day's wear while being thin enough not to show under fitted clothing.

This version sits in the part of the Laurier range built around how the pad feels against the skin, which matters over eight or more hours of contact. Seventeen pads per pack covers a typical cycle.

Packaging is Japanese domestic and printed in Japanese, so check the length and absorbency marking before ordering if you are matching a product you have used before.

Kao is one of Japan's largest household and personal care companies, founded in 1887, and Laurier is its feminine care brand. The range is organised into sub lines by priority, with some built around absorbency and others around how the pad feels against the skin, and within each by length and flow level. Japanese manufacturers led the development of thin pad construction through superabsorbent core technology, and Laurier is one of the brands that work is most associated with. C&C Cosmetics carries the range for Canadian customers.
