Black Lace Brief Period Pants - Moderate
Choosing the right size ensures comfort, leak-proof performance and confidence - whether you’re buying period underwear or period swimwear. Rather than simply selecting your usual size and hoping it fits correctly, we recommend measuring your hips and waist and checking with our size guide below.
For accurate measurements, remove your outer clothing and stand with your feet together. The tape measure should be snug and even, but not too tight.
Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and bottom. Keep the tape level and relaxed — don’t pull too tight.
Waist: Measure around the narrowest part of your waist, usually just above your belly button.
If your waist and hip measurements fall into different sizes, we generally suggest choosing the size that best matches your hip measurement for the most secure fit.
Should you need any help, please reach out to us here. We're available to help find the best, comfortable fit for you.

Our Black Lace Brief in Moderate Absorbency is designed for those days when you need reliable protection but want something that feels a bit more special than a basic brief. Featuring a high-waisted fit and soft lace detailing, these provide a secure, comfortable feel that looks just like your favourite lingerie. It is the perfect choice for those days when you want light or moderate protection and the confidence of a secure, comfortable fit that looks like your regular lingerie.
We use high-quality bamboo for the body of the brief because it is naturally breathable and incredibly soft. It is a much more practical choice than synthetic pads, as the fabric wicks moisture away from the skin to prevent irritation and keep you comfortable throughout your daily routine.
The Details
-
Moderate Protection: These hold approximately 15ml, the equivalent of three standard pads or tampons. They are ideal for your light-moderate flow days or as a confident backup.
-
High-Waisted Support: The cut sits comfortably below the midsection, providing a gentle, secure feeling. The lace trim is soft against the skin, ensuring the briefs stay in place without digging in or creating bulky lines.
-
Four-Layer Tech: Our slim, integrated gusset is designed to be discreet but effective. It includes a moisture-wicking top layer, an absorbent inner layer, and a waterproof barrier for peace of mind.
-
Skin-Friendly Fabric: Because we avoid the plastics and perfumes found in traditional disposables, these are much kinder to your body. The bamboo fabric is durable and remains soft even with frequent laundering.
Practical
Whether you are heading from a school-run straight to a networking event, or spending the afternoon running errands, these lace briefs are so comfortable you'll forget you are wearing them! Because they look and feel like your regular underwear, you don’t have to choose your outfit based on your period. They remove the need to carry spare disposables in your handbag and eliminate the worry of leaks while you are on the move, allowing you to get on with your day without constant interruptions.
How to Care for Your Sahara Lace Briefs
Keeping your period pants in top condition is simple. After use, give them a quick rinse in cold water until it runs clear, then pop them into the wash with your other delicates. We recommend avoiding fabric softeners and tumble dryers, as these can break down the leak-proof barrier over time. Simply hang them up to air dry and they’ll be ready for your next cycle.

- Pre-wash: Before first wear, wash in cold water with mild detergent (hand wash or gentle machine wash) to activate absorbency.
- Rinse: After wearing, rinse in cold water until it runs clear to remove excess blood and prevent staining.
- Machine wash: Wash with your delicates at 30°C. Use a delicates wash bag if possible, and a mild detergent without fabric softeners.
- No fabric softener: Avoid fabric softeners as they can damage absorbency and fabric.
- Hang to dry: Line dry completely before wearing to maintain absorbency and comfort. Do not tumble dry or iron.
- Ready to wear: Ensure completely dry before wearing again for maximum absorbency.
Following these steps will keep your Sahara period underwear performing at its best.
