Period Swimwear FAQs
Absolutely!
Our period swimwear is designed to let you enjoy the water with total confidence. They look just like those stylish regular swimsuits but come with a fantastic hidden absorbent lining. Perfect for light to medium flow days, our period swimwear gives you comfortable and discreet protection, much like our period underwear. With our innovative waterproof design, you can finally say goodbye to the discomfort of pads or tampons and hello to worry-free beach days and pool time!
Great question!
The absorbent lining in our period swimwear is thinner than some period pants, so we'd recommend using it for light to medium flow days. However, the gusset is made with antibacterial, breathable, and quick-drying materials, and the outer fabric has a special water-repellent coating. This helps keep pool or seawater out. For the best leak prevention, ensure the period swimwear fits snugly around your legs.
We use high-quality materials to keep you comfortable and protected:
- Lining: 100% Polyester
- Middle: 80% Polyester, 20% Nylon/PUL, 100% Polyester
- Outer: 82% Nylon, 18% Spandex
Important note: We've tested our period swimwear materials in both seawater and chlorine. However, we're not responsible for damage caused by friction/abrasions (like from climbing out of the pool) or marks/bobbling from Velcro on boards.
Get ready to experience total freedom! Our period swimwear offers:
- Built-in leak protection for complete peace of mind.
- Absorbency up to 3-4 tampons worth.
- Say goodbye to period worries at the beach, pool, or lake!

Nope! Beautikini offers period swimwear in various colors, not just basic black. You'll find a period swimsuit to match your style.
It's all about clever design! The layers in our swimwear are engineered to differentiate between blood and water using their unique absorbency and wicking properties. The inner layers are specially crafted to rapidly absorb and retain blood while actively repelling water to prevent any unwanted leaks. Conversely, the outer layers are hydrophobic, effectively repelling water and aiding in containing the blood within the inner layers. This sophisticated fluid management contributes to comfort and leak prevention.
Washing your period swimwear is a breeze:
- Soak: Soak them briefly in cold water.
- Rinse: Gently squeeze out any blood stains.
- Wash: Rinse repeatedly with cold water.
- Dry: Air dry only (avoid the dryer, fabric softener, and bleach).
