Libresse—reliable protection on those days
on certain days, women feel uncomfortable; they lack self-confidence and are therefore very vulnerable. What can you do? That’s just how Mother Nature works. Is there reliable protection that can restore peace of mind during this difficult time? Fortunately, yes, and it’s called Libresse. Let’s learn more about it.
How It All Began
For nearly a century, women around the world have been using Libresse pads. Undisputed market leadership, unique innovations, and continuous improvement—all of this has made Procter & Gamble’s products extremely popular. But that’s now; what about before?
Procter & Gamble was founded in 1837 by two hardworking men: soap maker James Gamble and candle maker William Procter. The success story of the Libresse brand began during World War I. There were so many wounded soldiers that the nurses simply couldn’t keep up with washing and drying the usual bandages. There was an urgent need for a different material with greater absorbency. And soon, it was invented. Cellucotton—that was the name of the new material, whose unique properties led the experts at Procter & Gamble to the idea that it could be used in the production of feminine hygiene products. A short time later, the company began producing the first Libresse disposable pads, which radically changed the lives of many women.

since the topic of menstruation was strictly taboo in those days, and advertising such a specific product was forbidden, they had to find alternative ways to market it. The idea of selling Libresse pads in pristine, unmarked packaging—without logos, labels, or any identifying symbols—proved truly revolutionary. They could be purchased without saying a single word: a woman would simply place her money in one box and take the pads from another.
What makes Libresse stand out today
For the makers of Libresse pads, attentiveness to women’s needs has always been—and remains—a top priority. Throughout its nearly century-long history, Procter & Gamble has worked tirelessly to improve the quality and reliability of its products. And that effort has not been in vain. Today’s Libresse pads offer 100% confidence and protection against any unpleasant surprises. Countless positive reviews are the best proof of this. The ultra-soft surface of the new Libresse pads feels gentle on the skin. Three layers quickly absorb and distribute fluid, so the surface never gets wet. Reliable side panels are designed specifically to prevent even the slightest leakage. You can barely feel the pad. Isn’t this the kind of protection you need these days?
