Way too small
These liners are tiny. They fit my daughter who is 5'3" and petite but they are way too small for me at 5"6' with a thick build. I have to keep pulling them forward. If you are very thin and only need coverage in the very middle of your underwear then these should be fine for you as far as fit goes but if you need coverage in the front, I'd look for a longer product. There is no protection for a leak when you sneeze for example.These liners are also shorter than 7 inches by a quarter inch when brand new and will shrink even more in a dryer set on economy low which is barely any heat at all (I think the instructions said to hand dry - no thanks- everything needs to be wash and dry in my house). I've included a picture of the washed liner along with a measuring tape and another 7" inch liner I own that fits me well. I wish I had also taken a picture with the measuring tape before I washed the liner.Update: upon closer examination, I've also noticed the inner core only extends the length of the stitching which is 5 1/2" if counting the stitching in the measurement (see the product images for pictures of the stitching). This significantly reduces the coverage area of these liners. My other liner's inner core extends the entire length of the liner. A full 7".Additionally the seam that boarders the liner feels stiffer and is not as comfortable next to the skin which cause quite a bit of irritation. The only positive thing I can say about them is the cotton is cute and very soft. Really wish they were more generously sized. That would probably solve most of the problems that I found with these liners.

Shorter than Gladrags Pantyliner Plus and hard to remove stains
Purpose and use:I use menstrual cups but tend to feel insecure for any leaks. So during COVID (since everyone is basically home), I decided to try reusable panty liners to save my nice underwear in case there are any leaks as well as being more environmentally friendly with the side benefit of saving money in the long run. I have sensitive skin so cotton material is important to me as well as it being organic.Comparison to Gladrags Pantyliner:My first reusable panty liner was Gladrag's pantyliner plus and those are really great. They are easy to wash, great quality, and comfortable feel and length. They are also made in the USA so I know I am supporting my economy in more ways than one. But I needed more than 1 liner to last my entire period and GladRags are expensive (~$14 for one liner). Looking on Amazon, this brand seemed to fit my bill of organic cotton, high quality company, and cost effectiveness. They are from a South Korean company that seems to specialize in organic cotton intimate products.I accidentally bought the pad version of the thinkECO's (which have an anti-leak layer) and those were not ideal for my purpose of catching any menstrual cup leaks. They were thick with layers of cotton and difficult to wash when the spotting dried. Those were anti-leak and had a comfortable length that made me feel secure. They were on the wider side so it didn't fit my underwear from VS cause they would slip forward or backward, but they fit my wider "granny panties" . After a couple of periods, they just didn't do it for my purpose and I bought the Small Liners.The Pantyliners are about 1-2 cm shorter than the GladRags Pantyliner plus, which felt pretty significant. They are much thinner than GladRags and their pad version, with only 2-3 layers (including outer). Just like the pad version, cleaning dried spotting requires a bit of elbow grease, but because they are much thinner than the pad version, I could get them more clean. The think ECO pantyliners also have 2 button closures for normal to more narrow underwear so that was a plus compared to GladRags. If you use them for menstrual cup spotting and don't mind a little more effort in washing them, I would recommend these to you due to price ($20 for 3 pads) and the design (which are super cute).Tips:- If you are in the U.S., these are Flexible Spending Account (FSA) reimbursable if your employer offers the benefit.- I hand wash and airdry them, but they get stiff (same with Gladrags). So after my period ends, I wash cold in the washing machine and line dry before storing them for next month.- For storing and on the go purposes, you can fold the reusable liners into squares. Just fold the top and bottom toward the middle (on the side that absorbs), fold the wings over that, then secure with the button closure. This keeps it sanitary for use and mess free storage during the day for used ones if you need to change and you're not at home. This also shows off the cute design and most people can't tell what it is.

Tired of Always Needing to Buy Panty Liners
Since my car accident and subsequent surgery, I have started to suffer from occasional bladder leakage. (Its nothing more than a drop or two here and there, but when you wear underwear it leaves you feeling uncomfortably wet all day long.) I generally would go through 2 throw away panty liners a day and it started to add up. I also have started to become very active in trying to lower the waste that my house consumes and needed to try and find an alternative to the drugstore disposables. I read reviews on reusables forever before finally settling on trying this brand, and I am so happy I did. The XS is a perfect substitute for throw away panty liners. One will last me all day. They are super absorbent and dry quickly. I wear these to the gym and Im more comfortable sweating with these on than my underwear. (For example: I was sweating so bad from a hard work out that the underwear I was wearing was completely drenched in sweat, but this liner was barely moist). I am 100% in love with the comfortability of these Pads. They are very easy to clean, I personally hand wash them in the sink with Dr. Bonner's Liquid Castile soap and leave them to dry overnight. I will continue to wear, and buy more. Next step I think will be to get the overnight pads for when I have my period, and I'll test how those hold up. Cheers to a greener earth and my women's health!

Be sure to soak before washing
I feel like such a hippie saying this, but I really like these. I soak them after use and wash them together. I use oxyclean instead of bleach and haven't had an issue with staining. If you don't mind a little extra work, these are great. Also, my flow has decreased since switching from disposables to organic cotton. It's been 6 months, so it's not a fluke. Not sure what that's about, but I'm not going to complain since I have to clean my rags now!

Perfect reusable option that isn't a cup
Love this reusable option. I don't buy pads anymore, meaning no more landfill additions. Easy to wash, and comfortable at night. Absorbency seems good, I don't see anything on my underwear underneath. For bladder reasons, using a cup is uncomfortable- this sustainable option is great, and doesn't cause me to sweat or itch from sweat. Plus it's made from just cotton, and organic cotton at that.
