Light bladder leaks have a way of showing up at the most inconvenient moments: when you lean forward to pick something up, when you stand after a long meeting, or when you finally relax on the sofa at the end of the day. Add a softer post-baby tummy or gentle menopausal bloating, and suddenly you might be planning your outfits around what feels “safe” instead of what feels like you.
The LushGuard™ High-Waist Leakproof Collection is designed for women who want discreet, high-rise protection that feels as comforting as a soft hug. These high-waisted incontinence knickers look like beautiful everyday underwear, while helping manage light–moderate bladder leaks with breathable, multi-layer protection and subtle tummy support. No plastic rustling, no bulky pads—just smooth, feminine security under every outfit.
Designed for women 35–65 with light–moderate bladder leaks who want high-rise confidence without sacrificing softness, breathability, or style.
Maybe this sounds close to home. You are getting dressed for the day and reach for the same dark, loose trousers again. Not because they are your favourite, but because they feel “safer” if you get a small bladder leak on the way to work or during a meeting. You tuck a pantyliner into your underwear “just in case”, even though you know it will twist, bunch, and leave you feeling slightly damp by lunchtime.
On your commute, a sudden cough or bump in the road sends a tiny warm dribble you did not plan for. It is not a flood, but it is enough that you instantly scan for the nearest bathroom. Light leaks might be small, but the mental load they bring is heavy—constantly checking, planning, and hoping nobody can see anything on your clothes.
At home, things are not much easier. Postpartum, you might feel that your tummy and pelvic floor no longer match the body you remember. Around menopause, gentle bloating and changes in your hormones can make your midsection more sensitive. You want underwear that does not dig in or roll down, but many low-rise styles simply do not feel secure over your bladder area. High-waist underwear sounds appealing, yet many high-rise options are either shaping garments that squeeze too tightly or bulky products that feel more like medical devices than underwear.
Pads and pantyliners are quick fixes, but they bring their own frustrations. They can shift when you sit, curl at the edges, and leave you with a plasticky feeling against your skin. Some women notice a faint odor by the afternoon, even if nobody else does. On long days at work, school runs, or social outings, you might be changing pads more often than you would like, wondering if there is a kinder, calmer way to manage your leaks.
And then there are the moments that hit your confidence most—the deep laugh at a family lunch, the sudden sneeze in the supermarket aisle, the moment you bend to lift a grandchild from the floor. Each one comes with a quiet little question: “Will this be the time I feel that leak again?” You deserve underwear that lets you relax into these moments instead of bracing for them.
The LushGuard™ High-Waist Leakproof Collection is created for exactly these real-life situations. It is here for women who want their underwear to be a soft, supportive base layer they never have to overthink—protective where it matters, feminine everywhere else.
Inside each pair of LushGuard™ high-waist leakproof underwear, there is a carefully designed balance of comfort, absorbency, and femininity. Your body gets practical support; your mind gets to rest.
Discreet absorbent layers positioned exactly where leaks tend to land—across the front and centre of the gusset—help capture light–moderate bladder dribbles before they reach your clothing. You stay comfortably dry during coughs, sneezes, and “I waited a little too long” moments.
The absorbent core is designed to help lock moisture away from the surface, which supports fresher-feeling underwear throughout the day. Paired with breathable outer fabric, it helps reduce the worry that someone might “notice” a leak.
No crinkly edges, no bulky profiles. From the outside, LushGuard™ high-waist panties look like elegant, high-rise briefs. Under fitted dresses, work trousers, or soft lounge sets, they sit smoothly and discreetly—for everyday wear that feels beautifully normal.
Soft, breathable fabrics and a washable construction mean you can wear, rinse, and re-use your LushGuard™ high-waist underwear again and again. They are designed to feel gentle against delicate skin, with a light, airy feel instead of a plastic shield.
High-rise leakproof underwear is especially loved by women who want both tummy comfort and extra security over the bladder area. If you recognise yourself in any of these situations, this collection was created with you in mind.
LushGuard™ high-waist leakproof underwear is not simply “thick fabric.” Inside each pair is a gentle, multi-layer system designed to support light–moderate bladder leaks while keeping you feeling like you are wearing normal, comfortable underwear.
The innermost fabric is chosen to feel soft and welcoming against your body. It is there every day, so it has to be kind. This top layer is designed to draw moisture away from your skin towards the inner absorbent core. That way, even if you experience a quick dribble when you sneeze or stand up, the surface you feel can return to a drier, more comfortable state instead of staying damp.
Because this is the part that sits closest to your most delicate skin, it is created to be smooth, low-friction, and gentle enough for all-day wear. Many women choose LushGuard™ on days when they know they will be moving, commuting, or sitting for long periods, because they do not want to be reminded of leaks every time they shift in their chair.
Beneath the top surface, the absorbent middle core is designed to capture and hold light–moderate bladder leaks. When a leak happens, this inner core is where it quietly goes. The fibres are arranged to pull moisture in and distribute it, rather than letting it pool in one spot.
This is especially important for high-waist incontinence underwear: the coverage is carefully placed to match where leaks are most likely to land during everyday movements, whether you are sitting in the car, standing at the kitchen counter, or walking down stairs. The goal is simple: you should be able to continue your day without feeling that every small leak becomes a big event.
A dedicated internal layer is included to help keep things feeling fresher for longer. By moving moisture away from the surface and into the inner core, this layer supports a more comfortable environment and helps you worry less about how you feel after a leak.
While no underwear can replace medical advice or treatment, many women find that having this extra internal layer gives them more peace of mind at work, during travel, or on full, active days. It is there working quietly in the background, so your attention can stay on living your life.
Beneath the absorbent core, LushGuard™ includes a thin, breathable barrier that is designed to help stop leaks from reaching your clothing. The idea is not to wrap you in plastic, but to create a flexible, protective shield that still allows airflow. This layer is carefully integrated so the underwear stays soft, foldable, and light, instead of stiff or noisy.
Around this layered system is a soft outer fabric that makes your LushGuard™ high-waist panties look and feel like real underwear. It is chosen to move with you, not against you, whether you are reaching up into a cupboard, carrying bags, or simply curling up on the sofa at night. All together, these layers work as a gentle team—supporting your confidence from the inside out, without shouting that you are wearing anything “special”.
Every woman has her own wardrobe rhythm—soft tees and leggings at home, tailored trousers at work, maybe a favourite dress for dinners out. The LushGuard™ High-Waist Collection offers three silhouettes so you can choose the fit that feels best with each part of your day.
This is the “daily favourite” style: a smooth, high-rise brief that sits comfortably at or just above your natural waist. The leg opening is gently curved for a flattering line on the hips, while the front panel offers a little extra softness over your lower tummy—ideal for workdays, errands, and long afternoons when you want to feel quietly supported and secure.
For days when you want a bit more smoothing without a tight, compressive feel, the tummy-hug style wraps your midsection in a soft, supportive band. The high waist helps create a smoother line under dresses and high-rise skirts, while the leakproof gusset quietly takes care of stress and urge leaks underneath. It is a gentle alternative to shapewear when you still want to breathe and move freely.
This style is designed to disappear under more fitted outfits. With softer edges and minimal seaming, it helps reduce visible lines while still offering high-rise coverage and leak protection. It is a favourite for travel days, evenings out, and moments when you want all the reassurance with as little show-through as possible.
LushGuard™ high-waist leakproof underwear is meant to be worn, moved in, and lived in. Here are some of the everyday moments where women tell us they feel especially grateful for their high-rise protection.
When your schedule is packed and bathroom breaks are not always predictable, high-waist leakproof underwear offers a layer of quiet security under your smart outfits. No need to rely on pantyliners that shift or crumple during the day.
Sitting for hours on planes, trains, or in the car can make leaks feel more likely—especially when access to toilets is limited. High-rise protection gives extra reassurance over the bladder area, so you can focus on the journey instead of the nearest exit.
Whether you enjoy light workouts, yoga, or simply a brisk walk around the block, the high-waist fit stays in place as you bend, stretch, and twist. It is ideal when jumps, squats, or fast steps sometimes trigger small stress leaks.
On quieter days, you may not want to think about leaks at all. A soft, high-waist brief that feels like loungewear but quietly manages dribbles lets you focus on reading, cooking, or playing with family without keeping a mental tally of “just in case” trips to the bathroom.
From family lunches to birthday dinners, you deserve to enjoy connection and laughter without worrying about leaks showing on your clothing. High-waist leakproof panties sit smoothly under dresses and outfits you genuinely love, so you can be present instead of self-conscious.
Some women like using high-waist leakproof underwear as a gentle backup at night for light dribbles. It is not a substitute for medical care, but it can add peace of mind if you occasionally wake to find small leaks on the way to the bathroom.
High-waist leakproof underwear can be a helpful part of your daily routine, but it is only one piece of the picture. Here are a few general lifestyle tips often encouraged by healthcare professionals for bladder-friendly habits. They are not medical advice, but simple ideas you can discuss with your own doctor or pelvic health specialist.
Sipping water regularly, rather than drinking large amounts all at once, can be more comfortable for your bladder. Restricting fluids too heavily can sometimes make urine more concentrated, which may feel more irritating for some women.
Some people find that certain drinks—like very strong coffee, tea, or fizzy soft drinks—seem to make urgency or frequency more noticeable. Paying attention to your own patterns can help you choose what feels best for your body.
Constantly emptying your bladder before it has had much time to fill can sometimes make it feel over-sensitive. Gently spacing out bathroom visits, as advised by a professional, may support a calmer routine for some women.
A comfortable bowel routine, with enough fibre and fluids, may help reduce added pressure on your pelvic floor. If you often strain or feel constipated, it is worth mentioning this to your healthcare provider.
Many women find that working with a pelvic health physiotherapist or similar professional gives them personalised exercises, reassurance, and long-term strategies. If leaks are bothering you, it can be helpful to ask your doctor for a referral or recommendation.
Your pelvic floor works quietly for you all day—supporting your bladder, bowel, and in many cases your uterus too. While only a professional can give you exercises tailored to your body, these gentle ideas can help you bring a little more awareness and kindness to this important group of muscles.
Take a few slow breaths where your ribs and lower tummy gently expand as you inhale, and soften as you exhale. Many pelvic health specialists encourage relaxed breathing as a foundation before any pelvic floor work—it can help your muscles switch out of “constant bracing” mode.
While seated or lying down, bring your attention to the area between your tailbone and pubic bone. Some women find it helpful to imagine lifting a small tissue or blueberry inside the pelvis when they contract, and then fully relaxing it back down. Avoid gripping your breath or squeezing your thighs.
Instead of holding one long contraction, try a pattern such as: gently lift for a few seconds, then relax fully for a few seconds. The “letting go” part is just as important as the “switching on”. Over time, a professional can show you how many repetitions and how often suits your situation.
Once you feel more confident, many women are taught to gently engage their pelvic floor just before moments that typically trigger leaks, like a cough, laugh, or lift. If this is suitable for you, a pelvic health professional can guide you on how to practise it safely.
Every body and every leak story is unique. If bladder leaks are affecting your daily life, speaking with a doctor, nurse, or pelvic health physiotherapist can give you tailored support. LushGuard™ is here as a gentle backup, while you and your care team explore longer-term strategies together.
Many women arrive at LushGuard™ after trying pads, pantyliners, or even adult diapers. Each option has its place, but if you are looking for something more feminine and reusable, this high-waist collection may feel closer to what you really want.
| Pads / Pantyliners | Adult Diapers | LushGuard™ High-Waist Underwear | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Comfort | Can shift or bunch; plastic edges may rub against skin during the day. | Often thicker and warmer, with more material around hips and waist. | Soft, fabric-based high-rise brief with integrated layers and a gentle, smooth waistband. |
| Confidence | May need frequent checking and changing to feel secure. | High absorbency, but some women feel self-conscious about the look and feel. | Discrete leak protection built into underwear that looks and feels like a normal high-waist panty. |
| Odor | Surface can stay damp, which may feel less fresh by afternoon. | Absorbent, but bulk and materials can still leave you feeling aware of what you are wearing. | Designed to draw moisture into the inner core and support a fresher-feeling surface layer. |
| Cost | Ongoing, repeated purchases—especially if used daily. | Higher per-pack cost and often reserved for heavier situations. | Washable and reusable for many wears, helping you reduce day-to-day disposable use. |
| Environment | Single-use, creating regular waste. | Also single-use with more material per item. | Reusable underwear can help you rely less on disposable products over time. |
| Under clothes | Can show outlines or edges through fitted clothing. | Bulkier and more visible beneath clothes. | High-waist silhouette sits smoothly under clothing for a more natural look. |
Looking after your LushGuard™ pieces is simple. With gentle care, your high-waist briefs can stay part of your daily routine for a long time.
While every body is different, many women share similar emotions when it comes to bladder leaks: worry, frustration, and a quiet hope that things can feel easier. These stories are shared to remind you that you are not alone—and that a simple change in underwear can make day-to-day life feel a little lighter.
If you are new to leakproof underwear—or simply new to the high-waist style—it is completely natural to have questions. Here are some of the most common ones women ask before they try the LushGuard™ High-Waist Collection.
This collection is intended for light–moderate bladder leaks—things like dribbles when you laugh, cough, lift, or feel a sudden urge and do not quite reach the bathroom in time. If you regularly experience heavier, continuous leakage or wake up very wet at night, it is important to speak with a healthcare professional for tailored support. Many women with a mix of lighter and heavier days use LushGuard™ underwear for lighter days and choose additional protection on heavier days as advised by their care team.
The high-waist styles are designed to feel smoothing and gently supportive, not like firm shapewear. The waistband is soft and wide to help it lie flat without digging in. If you are between sizes or prefer a more relaxed feel, many women choose to size up for extra comfort, especially postpartum or around menopause when the midsection can feel more sensitive.
For many women with light–moderate leaks, LushGuard™ underwear can reduce or replace the need for daily pantyliners. Some choose to wear the underwear alone on most days, while others add a slim liner during specific activities or heavier days for extra reassurance. What is right for you depends on your leak pattern and your comfort level; you can experiment at home first to see what feels best.
From the outside, LushGuard™ high-waist underwear is designed to look like a feminine, high-rise brief. There are no crinkly panels or bulky shapes. Under most clothing, they simply look like smooth, comfortable underwear. Many women share that partners, family members, and friends have no idea they are wearing leakproof panties at all.
Many women enjoy the gentle tummy coverage of high-waist underwear after pregnancy. However, immediate postpartum bleeding and heavier discharge often require specific pads or mesh underwear recommended by your maternity team. Once your healthcare provider says it is appropriate and your bleeding has reduced, you may find high-waist LushGuard™ helpful for ongoing light leaks or dribbles. Always follow your care team’s advice for the early weeks after birth.
LushGuard™ is made with breathable fabrics and a thin protective barrier that is designed to be flexible, not stiff. Most women describe them as feeling like normal, slightly cushioned underwear—not like a plastic pad. If you are used to disposable products, the fabric-based feel is often a welcome change.
That depends on how often you experience leaks and how frequently you do laundry. Many women feel comfortable starting with 3–5 pairs so they can rotate them through workdays, outings, and relaxed days at home. Once you know how often you reach for them, you can add more pairs in your favourite high-waist styles.
Some women like using LushGuard™ high-waist underwear as a gentle backup overnight for light dribbles, especially when getting up in the dark or moving slowly after a long sleep. If you have heavier nighttime leakage, you may still need additional protection as advised by your healthcare provider. It can be helpful to test your high-waist briefs at home on a quieter night first to see how they perform for you.
These styles are not designed for very heavy or continuous bladder leakage, or for situations where you need medical absorbent products. They are also not a replacement for professional assessment if you notice blood in your urine, sudden changes in leakage, pain, or any other concerning symptoms. In those cases, it is important to speak with a doctor promptly.
Start with your usual underwear size and check the LushGuard™ size guide for waist and hip measurements. If your measurements place you between two sizes and you prefer a more relaxed feel, the larger size is often more comfortable in high-waist designs. If you love a gently smoothing sensation and your measurements are closer to the lower end of a size, you may prefer your usual size.
Bladder leaks may be part of your story right now, but they do not have to write every chapter of your day. With LushGuard™ High-Waist Leakproof Underwear, you can enjoy the comfort of a gentle tummy-hugging fit, the discretion of real underwear, and the reassurance of built-in leak protection—all in one beautifully feminine layer.
Whether you are returning to work after childbirth, navigating hormonal changes, or simply ready to retire the stack of pantyliners in your bag, your underwear drawer can become a kinder, calmer place to start.
