Founder Iris (28) discovered why pantyliners, pads, and so-called "leak-proof" underwear still leave you feeling wet and clammy — and designed her own 4-layer brief that draws moisture *inward*.

You've been seeing a lot of her lately: Iris, founder of Maysa, and her own test subject for many years.

 

From her first period, she dealt with it every month: a flow that didn't care about anything. Leaking through at school, later at work, and definitely at night. Small enough not to talk to anyone about, big enough to plan around every month.

 

She tried everything: panty liners, sanitary pads, tampons, a tampon with a pad just to be safe. But no matter what she bought, one thing remained the same: that wet, clammy feeling, all day long. Only later did she discover why, and that became the basis of her own design.

 

So she designed it herself based on one question: would you wear it if it didn't protect you? The answer had to be yes.
 

Now there's a choice for every flow, from a light day to your heaviest period.

 

2 years later, Maysa is the daily choice for 10,000+ women, and rated 4.7 by customers. Below you can read why.

1. That wet and dirty feeling turned out not to be normal; it was the product

1. That wet and dirty feeling turned out not to be normal; it was the product

Do you recognise this? A clean pantyliner or sanitary pad in the morning, and within a few hours that damp, cold feeling again. I sometimes changed it three times a day and still felt dirty. I really thought that was just how it was.

 

Until I read why: pantyliners or sanitary pads RETAIN moisture, on top of a plastic layer, right against your skin. So it was never me, but how those things are built.

 

Maysa works exactly the opposite: 4 layers that draw moisture INWARDS, away from your skin, and lock it in the core. I was sceptical, until I felt it: just dry. Even hours later.

2. From day one, it felt like my own underwear

2. It felt like my own underwear from day one

This may sound small, but for me, it made the biggest difference. No diaper-like feeling, no thick pad between my legs, just briefs that I put on and then forgot about.

 

With sanitary pads, I always had that thick, rustling feeling. That "everyone can see it anyway" feeling, even though that probably wasn't true. 

 

Maysa was the first time I put on briefs in the morning and then didn't think about them again. Just underwear, that coincidentally also protects.

3. I trusted my own body again

Only after wearing it for a while did I realize how much space it occupied in my mind. Wearing light-colored pants, long meetings, exercising, sleeping through the night – all things I unconsciously anticipated.
 

With Maysa, it felt like I could turn off that constant alarm. No more panic checks every two hours. And that feeling of control being back was probably the biggest change for me, bigger than I had anticipated.

4. Finally, no more wet, cold feeling

4. No more wet, cold feeling at last

This was perhaps my biggest frustration with everything I had before. With a regular panty liner, that damp, cold feeling lingered all day long... very uncomfortable, and always present.
 

Maysa immediately draws moisture away from your skin to the core. It's the first one that truly felt dry, for 8 to 12 hours. And no odor to worry about.

5. Genuinely invisible under everything I wore

5. Truly invisible under everything I wore

I had almost resigned myself to the fact that tight clothing was simply out of the question during my period. But that turned out to be completely unnecessary.
 

The panty is so thin that you don't see it under leggings or tight trousers, so no lines, no bulge, or anything that stands out.
 

For the first time, I didn't have to check in the mirror first to see if it showed.

6. After months, I no longer buy pads or tampons

6. After months, I no longer buy pads or tampons

And this convinced me it wasn't a coincidence: it didn't just work for one day, but cycle after cycle. From my own experience, I was quite skeptical, because leak-proof underwear that also felt dry sounded too good to be true.
 

But now I no longer buy disposable pads. You simply wash them, they last for 2 years or more, and if they don't fit, you can easily exchange them with the Ecofriendly Fit Guarantee. I only wish I had done it cycles sooner.
