Minivivi pads currently come in several different sizes and with two different core options, then a choice of toppings – bamboo velour, brushed cotton, jersey cotton.
Bamboo velour feels more stay-dry against the skin and is super soft. It also holds slightly more fluid than cotton. However, bamboo does not like dry heat so should be kept away from radiators.
Cotton absorbs faster than bamboo velour but also feels more damp against the skin when wet. Cotton is generally more robust than bamboo and can withstand more tumble drying and radiator drying. Jersey cotton is the same cotton as knickers (stretchy knit cotton) then brushed cotton is also known as flannel or wincyette. Brushed cotton can also go “bobbly” quite fast so is not as aesthetically pleasing as bamboo velour or jersey cotton.
