Can’t I just use my regular soap or body wash? The Balancing Intimate Cleanser is extremely gentle, sulfate free and pH-appropriate for the delicate vulvar skin. Soaps, on the other hand, have a high pH (alkaline) which can strip skin leading to dryness and irritation. Many body washes contain harsh surfactants (similar to soap) and high levels of fragrance and essential oils which can disrupt the skin’s natural pH.

There is a lot of confusion over whether and how to cleanse 'the vagina.' First, there is no need to cleanse the vagina—it’s self-cleansing. This is the inner tube. Please don’t douche! Second, you may cleanse the vulva (the outer genitalia). Whether you’re dealing with dryness and irritation or not, it is important to use a gentle cleanser, and not a soap. They are more gentle, they don’t strip away the top layer of skin which is important for protection, and tend to be closer to the pH of the vulvar area. Also, stay away from heavily fragranced body washes and those containing dyes or colorants. Our cleanser was designed to be pH appropriate and best of all, you can use it all over your body.
