How do I use a compact applicator tampon?Updated 4 months ago
The LOLA tampon, made with 100% organic cotton (tampon and string), is contained inside a plastic applicator, which is made of two tubes — one inside the other. You need to extend the applicator to its full size before inserting the tampon. Gently pull the inner tube out until you feel it come to a stop. From here on out, it works just like any other tampon with a plastic applicator.
We've always had the most success holding the fully extended applicator between our thumb and middle fingers and using our index finger to push the tampon out. We found that this helps us get a better grip on the applicator. Be sure to push the inner tube into the outer tube until the ends meet. This will ensure that your tampon fully deploys from the applicator.
