The Honey Pot CoReviews of thehoneypot.co

This product burned me. When I contacted the company they said since you didn't buy it directly from us there is nothing we can do. Your products burned me and there is nothing you can do?! I am very disappointed in this "woman owned business" made by vaginas for vaginas...yeah right.

I bought these from a local pharmacy - the lavender, mint, aloe overnight pads. It was my mistake; I did not realize I had grabbed scented pads, which my body does not like very much. And well, when I put them on it was almost midnight and I thought, maybe this time? Nope. These were no exception to my "no scents" rule. They really do burn, it's very bizarre (and why would I want my vulva to feel "cooled"?!? Now, I'm cramping and uncomfortable??). It's important for consumers to know that just because something is labeled "natural/essential" does not mean that you cannot have a reaction to it, or that it is inherently healthy for you to use (for example - with tea tree oil, it's often recommended to dilute it by mixing, because it can straight up burn your skin undiluted). Therefore, it's misleading to put things like lavender oil, etc. in a product and then claim it's hypoallergenic - that doesn't actually make sense! It's the company's responsibility to make sure their products are safe. In conclusion, I'm sticking to unscented menstrual products. This whole "scent your genitals" trend has been happening for far too long now, heavily marketed towards women, shaming us for our natural bodily functions, and at the expense of women's health. I really do hope we can eventually leave it behind. P.S. - Interestingly enough, I'm leaving this review here because the function to leave a review on their site would not load for me.

Burning and itching sensation in my vaginal area! Made a mistake by buying the pads

Was treated poorly

I feel like I broke off a York Peppermint Patty in my vagina. There’s a icy- hot burning sensation.

The honey pots maxi pads are horrific and cause a burning sensation. After thinking I had an STD somehow for a few minutes, I ran to the box and noticed they had menthol essential oils infused in the pad. There are thousands of reviews and complaints like this online, it is an endless list. Yet, this company is still allowed to sell products that harm women, under the marketing guise of %100 chemical free and organic pads, only to be shocked when they have an allergic reaction caused by these supposedly organic pads. Makes sense this company's CEO is a man, because any woman would know better than to put a menthol product near her vagina.

Bought the honeypot pads looking for a safer chemical free option. I noticed they had mint, lavender, and aloe in them but I didn’t think that was an issue. Until I put a pad on and instant burning sensation started coming. So I took it off, let my vagina cool down and tried another. It was unbearable. No way could anyone sit with that pad on. Why would anyone want that feeling on their vagina? Super uncomfortable and not pleasant at all. This product is awful. And hurts. I do not recommend wasting money. I wish I would have researched reviews before buying.

If you love the intense cooling sensation in your mouth you get when you chew wintergreen gum and drink ice cold water at the same time and think “hey let’s put that feeling on the most sensitive part of my body for fun” then these pads are for you! However if you are the average woman who didn’t just push a watermelon sized baby out of a hole not big enough (the only situation I could see these pads being beneficial) then I would stay far far away from this product. I would give these to a person I don’t like if she asks to borrow a pad.
