Disclosed herein is a personal care absorbent product such as a tampon with an integral cover and a process for forming such a tampon. The process involves depositing molten thermoplastic fibers onto a surface of an absorbent core material, either continuously or intermittently, so that the molten fibers adhere to the surface of the absorbent core material thereby forming a fibrous nonwoven cover web. Additionally, during the deposition of the molten fibers onto the surface of the absorbent core, a lubricant may be added to the molten stream of fibers to facilitate user insertion of the completed product. Once the cover has been deposited and adhered to the absorbent core material, strips of the material are spirally wound, radially compressed and then optionally fused using heat to form the covered tampon.
