This is an incredible hack to prevent an uncomfortable camel toe and keep your crotch safe from getting pinched. This is also the perfect way to ensure no leakages during periods. One panty liner should be affixed to the crotch of the underwear, and another should be attached at a right angle to the first one if you intend to wear tight apparel. When using 2 liners, connect them in the shape of an inverted “T” or glue one onto the edge of the other to prevent leakage during your period. Two pairs of pants will do the trick if you don’t feel like wearing two sets of underwear with liners.
