The skin around the vulva, which encompasses the vagina, is inherently more sensitive due to its thinner composition compared to other areas of the body.

This specialised skin is also responsive to hormonal changes, becoming more sensitive during various stages such as periods, pregnancy, and menopause.

Similar to facial skin, the vulvar skin can encounter conditions like irritation, dryness, thinning, and the natural aging process.

It's essential to recognize and address the unique needs of this delicate area for proper care and well-being.

Wanna get scientific? pH stands for “potential of hydrogen” and the pH level is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of water-soluble products.

A pH value is a number from 1 – 14, with 7 as the neutral point.

Values below 7 are more acidic. The skin on our faces has an average pH of 5.5 while intimate skin (vulvovaginal) is below a 4.5.

Gosh, flashbacks of high-school chemistry... anyway...

Using a cleanser down there with a higher pH can disturb the balance of good bacteria that protect our lady parts from irritation potential.

Our Intimate Refreshing Cleanser is at a pH level of 4.0 – 4.5 as pH can shift over time – this is ideal for intimate skin while supporting the entire lady landscape (vulvovaginal area).

We only choose to formulate with safe, plant-based ingredients for this delicate area of the body.

Since everyone is different and pregnancy heightens sensitivities, always check with your health professional before using any topical product during pregnancy.

Overall, we use very limited essential oils for specific purposes in very low concentrations balanced with skin beneficial carrier oils for gentle efficacy.

We do not formulate with synthetic ingredients including retinol or hydroquinone, known endocrine disruptors. Our products are also gluten-free, vegan and cruelty-free.

*Our Intimate Refreshing Cleanser is a wash-off product that avoids the use of parabens, harsh synthetic surfactants / foaming agents, and supports vulva pH.

I mean, does it count if you refer to your vage as your PUSSY?

But really, no, our Intimate Cleanser is Cruelty Free. MEOW.
