History
"Carefree" panty liner was introduced in 1976 (trademark registered on May 27, 1976) and by the end of 70s captured more than half of the market. It was promoted as a perfect solution for a "fresh-dressed woman" (tagline "For the fresh-dressed woman" has been developed by SSC&B advertising agency) for every day use.
In 1997 "Carefree" held 10% market share in the USA sanitary protection market.
In 2001 black pantyliner "Carefree Black" was launched.
In 2008 "Carefree" introduced its "Ultra Protection" line which has been discontinued sometime in 2012.
In 2012 the brand aired controversial TV advertising for Carefree Acti-Fresh pantyliners in New Zealand and Australia, mentioning the word "vagina". As soon as the ad appeared Advertising Standards Bureau received nine complaints.
