Maintaining good hygiene across your entire body is essential, but maintaining intimate hygiene requires special considerations. Women require products designed specifically for this delicate area that are safe and effective.
Gentle and pH-balanced intimate wash products can help to maintain clean, comfortable and healthy conditions for women’s reproductive organs. When used according to instructions, these can also prevent itching, irritation and infections in sensitive areas.
Vaginal Cleansing Wipes
Feminine wipes can be handy and convenient in an emergency, such as when you forget your pad or tampon at home or need an immediate clean-up at the gym. But to stay safe it is essential that they contain no harmful chemicals or fragrances that might irritate or exacerbate sensitive skin conditions.
Traditional feminine wipes contain preservatives like parabens, methylisothiazolinone and formaldehyde releasers which may cause irritation and alter the pH balance in your vulva. Organic and all-natural feminine wipes with naturally occurring ingredients like grapefruit extract can support healthy levels of bacteria while protecting you against irritation and infections.
Rael’s all-natural, gynecologist-approved feminine wipes are made with purified water and all-natural, non-irritating ingredients that are non-biodegradable and biodegradable – plus, they’re American made and individually sealed so you can reseal after use!
Intimate Soap
Many women use the same soap for bathing their body and intimate area, however this may disrupt your natural pH balance and cause itching and irritation. Instead, opt for an intimate wash that has been specially-designed to be gentle enough for your vulva.
Search for an intimate wash that is hypoallergenic and approved by your gynecologist, without fragrance as this could irritate sensitive skin around your vulva.
Vaginal flora contains beneficial bacteria that help guard against infections and odor, so don’t ruin its delicate ecosystem with harsh chemical soaps or douches containing harsh fragrances and harsh ingredients like shea butter, jojoba oil or apricot oil that contain harsh fragrances or harsh chemicals. Instead, opt for gentle-scented intimate soap that contains skin-loving ingredients like shea butter, jojoba oil or apricot oil in its formulations.
Intimate Deodorant
Intimate deodorant provides daily comfort by stimulating circulation in intimate areas and relieving discomfort. The formula features natural Tea Tree Oil which fights bacteria growth while cooling sensitive skin areas.
A convenient spray bottle makes applying this product effortless; suitable for all skin types and ages. Over 93% have found relief from unwanted sweat odour, and 88% say it leaves them with an intimate area that feels fresh.
Gentle intimate care products like Femigel Daily can help both women and men who suffer from unpleasant odors in the intimate area, including sweat, incontinence or menstruation. Its soothing formula also soothes any irritation after intimate shaving or intimate shaving itself. Femi Daily deodorant may be used alone or combined with Femigel soap as part of an intimate care package – perfect before and after physical activity as well. Spray it directly on pants and shapewear for an instant freshening boost!
Feminine Liners
Selecting an eco-friendly feminine care product to absorb leakage, period discharge and vaginal discharge is an excellent way to maintain daily intimate hygiene and save costs by being gentler on skin while contributing less waste and landfill.
Liners can be useful tools in managing the natural discharge from non-period days and avoiding panty staining, particularly on those experiencing leukorrhea (an abnormally light vaginal bleeding). Liners may also provide comfort if breastfeeding or having sensitive vulvae is an issue for you.
POISE liners should be changed every 3-4 hours or as necessary depending on your flow, for optimal safety and effectiveness. POISE liners have been tested to meet the highest quality standards by conducting comparative clinical trials to ensure they’re comfortable, discreet, and provide you with reliable protection. Plus they’re 4x drier and more absorbent than leading feminine care liners* to provide seamless wearability underneath underwear.
