Organic Applicator Tampons
2 absorbencies
Our applicator tampons feature a biodegradable cardboard applicator for easy, smooth insertion, and are made with organic cotton for exceptional comfort and total confidence. Available in regular and super absorbencies, providing reliable protection that’s gentle on your body and the planet.

Tampons provide you with the freedom to stay active on your period. Whether you’re new to tampons or simply prefer the convenience of an applicator, our applicator tampons have got you covered. Our applicator helps with proper insertion of your tampon and is made of biodegradable cardboard. For your body and our planet.
Not all bodies are the same, and while applicators work well for many, we also offer non-applicator tampons, period cups, and pads as alternative options.
- Breathable and naturally absorbent.
- Designed with 8 grooves to provide enhanced absorption and protection.
- Features a sewn-in organic cotton cord, ensuring maximum comfort and peace of mind without any added adhesives.
- Complete with an organic security veil, to prevent fibres coming off in the vaginal wall.
- Hypoallergenic and clinically proven to be non-irritating.
- Expands gently widthways for a comfortable fit.
- Safe for your body and the environment.
- Wash your hands before you begin.
- Unwrap your tampon but keep the applicator in place.
- For comfort and ease, we recommend trying different positions, such as sitting or standing, to find the most comfortable way to reach your vagina.
- Position the top of the applicator at the vaginal opening, and aim it towards your lower back (remember, your vagina is situated at a slight angle, not straight up!).
- Gently push the applicator tip in and then use your other hand to push the plunger all the way into the applicator – this will release the tampon inside of you.
- Now, remove the applicator carefully, leaving the tampon string hanging outside of your body.
- Wash your hands again.
- If you’re feeling discomfort, your tampon may not be inserted correctly. Try readjusting or pushing it in further until you can no longer feel it.
- Always use the lowest absorbency for your flow and change your tampon every 4-8 hours.
- Our applicator and paper wrapper are both biodegradable, so please dispose of them in your compost bin. While our tampons are made from biodegradable materials, the breakdown process can be affected by factors such as the temperature of your compost bin. For this reason, we recommend disposing of them in the general waste bin to ensure proper disposal.
- Crafted from GOTS-certified organic cotton, our tampons are free from pesticides, dyes, and other toxic chemicals. Our applicator tampons come with a cardboard applicator and are individually wrapped in recyclable paper.
- Our tampons are made with GOTS certified organic cotton which uses 71% less water, 62% less energy and produces 46% less CO2e than traditional cotton.
- Our biodegradable cardboard applicator prevents up to 290 pieces of plastic from entering our environment each year.
- Our paper wrap is a sustainable alternative to traditional plastic-wraps, made from compostable and biodegradable materials that will naturally break down over time.

I have been using this product for about a year or so now. I'm really pleased with it and glad to be supporting a small business and the environment too.
C. Lehmann –
What a nice product! Easy to insert and feels good. The fact that it’s biodegradable and without chemicals makes it even better. Definitely will purchase more!
Smitha V. –
They’re free from nasties comfortable and eco friendly. Have been using them for over 4years now and won’t use any other tampon ever again. Thank you Grace abd Green :heart:️:heart:️
Charlotte J. –
Love this product for the fact it's organic and sustainable.
Also really useful that I didn't have to sign up for the subscription straight away, as when I first tried G&G I had not long started menstruating again after having my baby. Gave me a chance to try the products out before committing, and also gave my body a chance to get back into a rhythm. Now have a subscription and won't look back!
Claire S. –
I love the ethos of the company.

I love the fact that the package in recyclable and eco friendly. I don’t have to worry about delivery as the subscription service takes care of that
Lauren H. –
I’ve been using these for over a year and it’s so convenient I wouldn’t go back. I had an issue with an order once but it was sorted quickly and in a friendly manner – this really says a lot about a company in my opinion. It’s nice that the products are eco friendly, but mostly I like the little handwritten note that comes every month – it’s a really nice touch and shows they care about each customer. Absolutely recommend!
Gill P. –
Happy to leave big name, plastic applicators behind. Have recommended to over 10 people now, who have the financial means to choose environmentally friendly period products that suit their lifestyle.

So happy with this service, it's reasonably priced and the same as what I'd spend in the supermarket but now I have the option for clean, organic feminine products.
Sarah T. –
I absolutely loved the products I ordered. Tampons and pads (day and night). So much so in fact I have signed up for a subscription. They are way less irritating than normal tampons and I feel better about the environmental impact as well! Highly recommended
Melody C. –
Excellent. Items arrived promptly and someone had taken the time to add a little personal note too thanking me for supporting their business. They have been the best organic / natural sanitary products i have tried.
Lisa B. –
Best product I have used the tampons are easy to use and so comfortable. I got the monthly subscription so I never have to worry about running out to the shops for them anymore

Easy to use website and loved the welcome emails especially the bit about how much CO2 they've saved by tree planting and what that equates to.

I like knowing the ethics of the company and how they support women and environmental causes. These are comfortable and easy to use. Plus, their biodegradable applicator makes it all the better.

A brilliant product! Comfortable, does the job well and you get a good amount in the box. It’s a relief to be able to use sustainable period products like these that break down without a trace, when other brands still use so much plastic that goes straight in the bin! Also it feels much better to be using organic cotton with no nasty chemicals going down there. They’re worth it for the price knowing that my purchase has helped aid period poverty charities – will be buying again!

Recomended 100%

A product that is good for the environment and easy to use. Why would anyone not pick it? Lovely packaging

They’re really comfortable. Since I’ve started using them my headaches are stopped which my GP told me about the chemicals they used in tampax or other brands. And they environmental friendly! That’s ticks all the boxes for me.

I’ve used carboard applicators before and not been a fan but these are so comfortable to use! Will defo be buying again
T. Kumar –
Nice quality- really soft and absorbent. No tacky perfume either but they lock the odour away. Nice to know that they’re less harmful to the environment than regular sanitary products. They are definitely a bit pricier than shop bought stuff but I’m happier to pay a little extra for the reduction in environmental harm.
