Thought you’d heard the last of “feminine lip-stick”? Now Wichita chiropractor Dan Dopps has posted a new potential product on his website: a Mensez panty liner.

According to the Mensez website, the panty liner is pre-applied with a “colorless powder” that transfers off the liner and keeps menstrual blood contained. Like the “lip-stick,” the adhesive is meant to wash away with urine.

The website says the product is still in development, as is the “feminine lip-stick,” a product that was widely criticized on Facebook and by OB-GYNs after a post about it went viral early this year.

An e-mail to Dopps, CEO and president at Wichita-based Mensez Technologies, was not immediately returned.
