Smart underwear is made in 60% of Lycra and the other 40% of technical fabrics."The fabric technology works to maximize the amount of absorbed liquid, creating an ecosystem that allows youThe $ 2100 (bikini bombshell) and can contain up to eight teaspoons of liquid.
The fabric layers are three:
"It is a common bombing, so it has cotton, microfiber or tricot. But apart from that we use other fabrics that work together: one absorbs and pass it to the other side, and the other is evaporating," they detail.And they add: "It seems that it has much more absorbent capacity, because you use it and evaporate, you use it and evaporate, and you think it is magic because the day ends and it is dry."
The first fabric is of national origin."When we use this fabric we combine it with the microfiber absorbent, it is like a towel that absorbs much more than normal, of course. This is the thickest of all, like a water cookie," they indicate.The next two, on the other hand, are imported from Germany and the United States.
The smartd is waterproof but not plastic."The plastic in a dressing or a pump made with plastic does not let the body breathe, and neither does it go to the liquid, so it is trapped and produces fungi," they explain.In addition, the smartd is flexible, washable, anti -lane, antibacterial, fast drying, durable (tested in more than 300 washes), hypoallergenic and eco friendly.
The one that works as a sponge, meanwhile, absorbs its weight in two seconds, is 20 times faster than other fabrics such as bamboo or cotton, and a layer replaces 3 of microfiber and 6 cotton."A single layer replaces a night dressing," they say.
When cleaning the garments, they recommend rinsing them are barely finished using or, failing that, letting them be soaked.Then, wash them with cold water or in washing machine, although this last method will decrease their useful life since the centrifugate can damage the waterproof membrane.Once clean, it should be dried in the shade and, if some stain occurs, it is useful to use lemon juice to remove it.

In La Plata, the Pharmacy Ramos sells both bombachas and boxers with this technology."We incorporated them in November last year and people received them well," Mariela, responsible for the premises located in the town of Los Hornos.
"We noticed that there was a need of people, in the pharmacy we see many incontinence problems and also many young girls who are looking for other alternatives to use in the menstrual period," he argues about the incorporation of these products, which he describes as "very good".

Among the greatest concerns of those who investigate these products are topics linked to hygiene, potential odors and possible uses, which Gitte responds in a special section:
Is it hygienic to take them all day?They ask us a lot, and the answer is yes!Our underwear contains unique antimicrobial and antibacterial properties.These antibacterial properties are natural and there are no coatings.
But ... are they going to smell?No, because fabrics prevent bacteria from forming (that is what gives smell).
Will I feel dry?Yes, because the dry fabric, which is the one that is in contact with your skin, passes everything wet to the other layer.
Do they inflate like a diaper?Nope!Forget about relating smart bombs with a diaper: They don't look at anything!These are fine, beautiful and reusable.When the liquid is absorbed, they do not increase in volume.
Are they useful for urine losses?Yes, but for severe losses we have other models.
I am disgusted with just thinking about it, of course, that is the reaction of us all we think or comment, but in these bombs you see anything.They are black and absorb everything.
Where are they manufactured?Our underwear is designed and manufactured here in Argentina, only absorbent and waterproof fabrics are imported.
What sizes do they come in?Available in all sizes for all bodies (we measure from the widest part of the body, from children to 170 centimeters of hip).
