These pads are the best I've ever used! The material is very light and absorbent, and it doesn't have that friction-y feeling that I often have with the big brands. They're so light that I often forget that I have them on! The pads did a very great job of keeping everything dry and odor free. As for the feminine wash, I don't really use them so I have nothing to compare it with, but it did leave my skin feeling soft. I'm so impressed with these products. WIll be purchasing again in the future!
