Pinkie is expanding its teen and tween period products by introducing Overnight Pads. 

Created after an overwhelming demand from consumers for an overnight solution, the brand created the product to offer supportive overnight protection, as well as accommodate leak-free nightly needs, the company shared. 

“Pinkie’s mission has always been to make period care stress-free, empowering, and tailored to the needs of teens and tweens—because they deserve nothing less," Sana Clegg, Co-Founder of Pinkie. "We’re always listening to our community to understand how we can best support them through every stage of their period, and the launch of Overnight Pads is a direct response to what our customers have been asking for. We’re so excited for our customers to experience an option that offers extra coverage, absorbency, and comfort, so that they can sleep soundly knowing they’re fully protected.”

The Overnight Pad is the longest and widest pad the brand offers. An extra wide back is incorporated for all-night confidence while remaining perfectly sized for teens and tweens, the brand said. 

Packaged in Pinkie’s soft, and rip-free pouch, the Overnight Pad retails for $8.99 and is available for purchase on Amazon and Target.com.
