I received this product free to test as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.

I was very excited to try the Tampax Radiant Pearl Tampons. As with the other products in the Radiant line, I liked the packaging; it was appealing and eye-catching. As far as how well the product worked, it was on par with the plain old Tampax cardboard applicator and OB tampons that I typically use. The radiant pearl tampons have a plastic applicator which is easy to use and has fairly good grip. The packaging that is around the tampon itself is pretty discreet since it is a soft plastic so it doesn't really rustle when you are opening it which is nice. The package does make it easy to pop the applicator back in for disposal, but I find most brands do that anyways. I think the product works well, but I find that Tampax has other lines that work equally as well, are a little cheaper, and slightly more environmentally friendly. I wouldn't ignore the product but I probably won't switch unless the price comes down. I would tell others about the product though.

I rarely use tampons, but as part of the ChichAdvisor Product Review Club I gave them a try. These tampons may change my mind on using them. Insertion was made easier and more mess free due to the textured grips on the applicator. I found that the actual tampons were super soft so they were comfortable to wear too. I didn't find I had any leakage so that is a major bonus. In terms of cost I'd say they are comparable to other brands however I would choose this brand over the others because of the ease of use and their effectiveness. I'd seriously consider using these tampons on a regular basis!

I received a sample and loved it. The outer packaging is resealable which is very convenient and the protection is amazing. I find these protect better than most and are easy to insert with a plastic applicator.

I received a sample of these tampons and thought that I would give them a try. I have always been a tampax girl but I am not a fan of new when it comes to my tampons, but kinda figured what would one or two hurt. I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised! I really like the wrapper and the protection is awesome as always. I was also impressed with the applicator...I like that it provides a good grip and is soft and smooth. My only complaint is that I have yet to see these new tampons in Tampax's trademark light absorbency...I do hope that they come soon :)
I would definately recommend that you give them a try!

I received Tampax radiant as part of the Chick advisor review panel to try.
I was pleasantly surprised to receive full package sizes for these products.

The fancy outer packaging is pretty but to be honest I could care less what the box looks like. What matters is what is on the inside and how it performs that matters not how attractive the box is.

That being said I was impressed with the improvements made to the packaging of the tampon itself. The resealable packaging for disposal is genius and I can't figure out why someone hasn't thought of it sooner. The other noteworthy improvement is the grip on the applicator. Most tampons barely have any grip to them and thus makes them more awkward to use.
As for the tampons themselves I didn't notice any difference between them and my other recent Tampax purchase.
My only suggestion would be to make these available in a compact size.

I was one of the lucky gals selected to try out new Tampax Radiance products by Chick Advisor. I was so excited to receive the products in the mail. The first thing I noticed was the packaging. Very estethically pleasing. Let's be honest ladies-there is NO WAY that anything can ever make that time more pleasant-but receiving something packaged like cosmetics takes the ouch out a little ;)

A resealable package!! Yes! This is one of those innovations that I am shocked no one thought of until now. No more messy, sometimes mortifying job of trying to dispose of your old tampon. Love it!! The leakage protection was average. I really didn't think the grip on these were any better than any other tampon. All in all, VERY favorable reviews-on top of the other little extra, the resealable package really SEALS (pun intended) the deal for me!

I was chosen to be part of this product review

I was really impressed with the packaging. The box itself is appealing and the tampons are all wrapped in a resealable packaging which is brilliant

The most important part is protection. I feel it's worth the money. I wasn't scared of leaks or anything and fell protected while not feeling the tampon itself.

Definitely on my list

I received this as part of the product review club and absolutly love the packaging it comes in. They are in real bright colors and looks nice. The wrapper was also nice and colorfull. Very easy to open, the applicator was also great. The feel of them was good, i usualy acn only use one type of tampons and its was an other brand but this one felt great also. The only down size was when i came to take it out, didnt like the feel at all. The tampon had opened in two and didnt like the feel when it came out....other than that was ok.

I received these as a part of the Product Review Club. I love them! To start, the box they're stored in is resealable due to this little cardboard tab on the inside of the lid. I'd never noticed how important this was before but it really does make a difference! The individual packages are the best part. The sticker comes off easier and makes no noise. Its easy to pop the applicator back in when your done and there's no mess on your hands! The environmentalist in me questions the necessity of the cotton lining. I get that it absorbs the residue but hmm... The tampon itself is really quite pretty which is nice but once again, necessity? I love that its plastic because those are the easier to insert. In terms of absorption they seemed average to me. They didn't leak or anything but neither do any of my other brands! The packaging definitely makes it worthwhile though!

I really liked these tampons, I love the colour and I also appreciated the textured applicator. I did find that these tampons were not as effective as the Tampax pearl. I didn't really like the thick blue string, but overall I really loved them. All of the radiant products use a TON of packaging.. it'd be nice to see some environmentally friendly yet cute alternatives.
