Periods and pool days have never played nice.
Wearing aswimsuitborders on risky when Immenstruating, particularly on heavy flow days.
For that reason, I tend to avoid swimming when Im on my period.
However, I was recently introduced to a chic solution: period swimwear.
I tested theKnix Leakproof Side($100).

My honest review of the Knix Leakproof Side-Tie One Piece Swimsuit
The fit
Snatched.
Thats how I feel in the Knix one-piece leakproof bathing suit.
I cant lie: The first time I ever tried to put it on, it was a struggle.
Im five feet tall and about 135 pounds, so I got a size small-plus.
Firstly, Id like to note that this is the first brand Ive seen who offers in-between sizes.
Truth be told, it was a tad constrictingespecially when it came to taking deep breaths.
For that reason, Id suggest getting a size up.
Not to mention, it also kept keep my breasts secure and supported.
Menstruators everywhere: rejoice!
…
This leakproof bathing suitworks.And it works on multiple levels.
On a mental level, it keeps my anxiety at bay.
I dont, however, think would handle a super heavy flow.
The material
So howdoesthis swimsuit absorb menstrual blood?
It features a period-proof gusset made with proprietary FreshFix Technology fabric (the same material asKnixs period underwear).
Thatreallymakes it stand out from the pack.
Additionally, as someone who doesnt track her period, the Knix leakproof one-pieceactuallyputs my mind at ease.
And that peace of mind is worth $100 to me.
