Anyone use reusable panty liners? Are they any good?

For various reasons I use a panty liner every day, and the waste of it plays on my mind - so much plastic and stuff going to landfill.
Are there any decent washable alternatives?
If they've just got 'normal' discharge and/or a bit of spotting can you throw them in the washing machine at 40° with a normal load of clothes without it being icky?
Any recommendations?

I'd like some recommendations too of ones that don't slip about when you walk.

I just chuck them in the wash with everything else no problems (I do rinse 1st in cold water if I am actually on my period). My only negative is slippage when out walking.

I find the cheeky wipes cotton ones (rather than the minky backed ones) stay in place a lot better.

How about underwear like modibodi?
The lightest absorbent is very thin, they are so comfy and you don't have to worry about slipping

Wash in normal wash, no ickiness

I've been using reusables, just found sellers on Etsy, Amazon, eBay etc. I have the ones that have wings and poppers, which attach to the underwear.

Washing them is easy, just Chuck them in with a normal wash.

Was about to recommend Lady Days too - I've been using them for about 10 months and they're really great.

I use Luna Cycle. Theyre fantastic.
