Kotex Napkin Advertisement, 1969.

In the late 1960’s, Kotex started their Soft Impressions campaign. A notable departure for Kotex, but much like the famous Modess campaign, the advertisement does not provide a description of the pad or a promise of its effectiveness. Euphemism was still an important part of marketing feminine hygiene.
