Comparison to CF liners

I normally use Carefree XL liners but due to COVID I am having a hard time getting my preferred product. I figured I'd give these a shot even though they aren't individually wrapped. I wear liners during the day to easily be able to stay dry and prevent yeast infections as I am out walking all day in the summer heat as a professional dog walker. I also wear them at night as an extra layer of protection with my menstrual cup so long length is important to provide adequate coverage when supine. Here is my comparison of the two products:1. These are barely longer than a regular length carefree panty liner, maybe closer to a "long" length but certainly not what I'd call extra long. As such I don't feel as secure using the liners as a protection measure should my menstrual cup overflow or leak during the night. I also house sit as a professional pet sitter so I am frequently sleeping in other people's beautifully decorated and all too often white bedding so the thought of having an overnight leak is nightmare fuel to me.2. The adhesion is on par with decade(s) old panty liner design. They may not bunch up as easily for someone who doesn't spend a good amount of time walking during the day but for me the adhesion lasts through one to two dog walks as best before it's twisted and wadded and uncomfortable. If I still worked an office job these would probably suit me just fine.3. Absorbency is good but the shape leaves a lot to be desired. The straight shape combined with the thin adhesive strip down the center of the liner are probably big contributors to the shifting and bunching problem I experience pretty quickly.4. They aren't individually wrapped. I knew that going in to it as I believe it is in the product description. I didn't think that would be an issue since I didn't anticipate having to change my liner every hour or so due to the shifting and bunching.I am thankful to have at least something to use even if it's not my preferred product, but unless COVID really disrupts supply chains again I absolutely will not purchase this product again.
