September 14th we’ll be celebrating the Back to School season with our wonderful co-host You ARE Loved with a Back to School: Periods 101 Tweet Chat. And thanks to Ann Germanow, founder of Scensibles we have another great giveaway to offer.
One concern many parents have is their daughter’s feminine hygiene while at school. An issue that can be magnified when there is a lack of receptacles in girls bathrooms (especially at elementary school levels). This makes Scensibles a perfect giveaway for September’s topic. To help promote and encourage participation in next month’s chat we’ll be giving away a box of Scensibles to two lucky winners.
What are Scensibles?
Scensibles are sanitary disposal bags specially designed for safe, easy and clean disposal of feminine care products—sanitary pads, tampons and applicators, disposable cups (like Softcups), personal care wipes, and panty liners. Scensibles are personal size oxo-biodegradable scented plastic bags with a contemporary pink on pink design, tie handle closure and built in antimicrobial agents to inhibit the growth of odor causing bacteria.
A few reasons you may want to try Scensibles:
- “Sanitary”napkin receptacles in women’s restrooms have the highest isolation of harmful germ/virus contamination and the risk of exposure to blood borne pathogens is overlooked
- Tampons cause toilet clogs and result in expensive plumbing bills!
- Reduce unpleasant odors
- Lessen damage to sewer or septic systems and sewage treatment plants; and reduce pollution of our waterways, lakes and oceans.

right in the trash
Neither my parents nor I have ever had any qualms about tossing these in the bio receptacles, and I don’t remember any friends or parents of friends who had any concerns, either. Just wrap it in TP and we’re good to go. Considering all the perfume girls bathe themselves in, and other scents common to public restrooms, menstrual scents are the absolute least noticeable. Also, won’t these make girls MORE self-conscious about their bodies?
In the bag they came in or in toilet paper 🙂
