At the heart of Eve Essentials is Aadhya, a 17-year-old visionary committed to making menstrual care sustainable and stigma-free. “My goal was never just to create a product, but to rethink the way we approach periods entirely. We’re committed to providing a solution that is safe, reusable, and made with dignity—because better menstrual care isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity.”
A Game-Changing Solution for Sustainable Menstruation
Sanitary pads rank among the top five manmade pollutants globally, with India generating an estimated 12 billion disposable pads annually—most of which take up to 800 years to decompose. Each discarded pad contains the plastic equivalent of four plastic bags, significantly worsening pollution levels. In contrast, Eve Essentials’ period panties are designed for longevity and sustainability:
-
Durable & Eco-Friendly: Each pair lasts for over two years with proper care and is 90% compostable, drastically reducing menstrual waste. -
Safe & Comfortable: Made from breathable cotton, they are free from harmful toxins found in conventional pads and tampons. -
Versatile & Reliable: Ideal for: -
Women with irregular cycles who need absorbent yet comfortable protection. -
Working women and travelers looking for a convenient, reusable option. -
Girls experiencing their first period, ensuring comfort and confidence.
Accessibility & Economic Benefits
Eve Essentials’ period panties provide a long-term economic advantage over disposable products. While the recurring cost of purchasing sanitary pads and tampons adds up, reusable alternatives present a more cost-effective and sustainable solution. As part of its Women’s Month launch campaign in March, the brand is offering a special introductory price, making sustainability an affordable choice. The product will be available for purchase on Amazon, ensuring easy accessibility to women across India.
