Periods ‘just’ got bloody simple: just. and Active Minds
CINCINNATI – March 18, 2019 – Period protection just got bloody simple. Introducing just., a new line of 100% cotton core tampons and ultra thin pads with a 100% cotton top layer. Free of dyes, fragrances, and chlorine bleaching, just. tampons and pads were created to take the drama out of periods. Women can say goodbye to the period “pro & con” list and say ‘hello’ to an uncomplicated choice that gives her everything she wants and nothing she doesn’t. Because seriously, it’s just a period.
“Period protection shouldn’t be complicated.” said Melissa Suk, Global Feminine Care Marketing Director for just. “Women told us they want a simple option that’s good for them with good value, and just. is designed just for them with the ingredients they want and nothing they don’t. Because we believe periods should be bloody simple.”
At just., we believe it’s time women talk frankly about subjects that have been considered “taboo” for too long, like periods and mental health. In an effort to destigmatize these issues, the brand has partnered with Active Minds, the nation’s premier non-profit organization supporting mental health awareness and education for students. Through its presence on more than 600 college and high school campuses, Active Minds provides programs and services to empower students to reduce the stigma around mental health. Through a donation and multiple on-campus events this year, the partnership will help give a support system and a voice to young women who may be suffering from anxiety or other mental illness and don’t have access to the therapy or treatment they need. The partnership will also provide women access to just. to make periods one less thing to worry about.
“Active Minds is proud to partner with just., as they’re on a mission to make even one choice more simple when it comes to choosing menstrual care products,” said Alison Malmon, Founder & Executive Director of Active Minds. “We appreciate that just. knows mental health is as important as physical health and will support us on our mission to ensure college students feel comfortable reaching out for help and have access to the mental health services they need. Together, we can try to make their lives a little easier.”
just. is sold exclusively at Walmart, both in stores and online. The tampons are available as of March 11 and come in regular and super absorbencies, and pads will be available April 17 and come in super and overnight.
