A Gentle Choice for Sensitive or Reactive Skin
For many women, a daily shower is a routine part of personal hygiene. However, infections in the intimate area are rarely caused by poor hygiene. In fact, the most common cause is excessive cleanliness or the use of unsuitable soaps and shower gels. Overwashing or using harsh products can disrupt the delicate balance of the vaginal area, allowing harmful fungi and bacteria to thrive.
For women with sensitive or reactive skin, choosing a gentle and specially formulated feminine wash is essential. Lactacyd® Feminine Wash, enriched with Lactobiome+™, provides a mild yet effective formula that cleanses without disrupting the natural pH balance of the intimate area. Clinically proven, Lactobiome+™ is a potent combination of high-performing ingredients, Lactic Acid and Lactoserum, that protects the healthy skin microbiome, strengthens the skin barrier, and nourishes and hydrates the skin. Regular use promotes freshness, comfort, and protection, making it the ideal choice for sensitive skin.
How to Maintain Women’s Intimate Health
Maintaining intimate health is essential to prevent infections, discomfort, and other health issues. A healthy intimate area not only supports reproductive function but also plays a crucial role in hormonal balance and daily comfort.
By maintaining proper hygiene and undergoing regular gynecological check-ups, women can detect potential issues early and take preventive measures. Here are key practices to care for intimate health:
1. Avoid Using Regular Soap to Clean the Vagina
Contrary to common belief, using soap to clean the vaginal area is not optimal. Regular soaps can disrupt the natural balance of good bacteria, which is essential for maintaining the vaginal pH. Over time, this imbalance can lead to infections. Additionally, avoid using vaginal sprays or douches, as these can remove beneficial bacteria and disturb the pH level, increasing the risk of infection. Lactacyd® Feminine Wash, with the power of Lactobiome+™, offers a mild formula that is gentle on sensitive skin. It helps soothe the intimate area, reduces irritation, and nourishes the skin, making it ideal for daily use without disrupting the natural protective barrier.
2. Maintain Feminine Hygiene
After urinating or defecating, cleanse the vagina with clean water or use feminine hygiene products like Lactacyd® Feminine Wash. Don't forget to dry the area using tissue and wipe it from front to back. This cleaning method helps prevent bacterial contamination in the vagina and reduces the risk of urinary tract infections.
Additionally, sanitary pads should be changed regularly during menstruation to maintain hygiene and prevent infections.
Soothes Post-Activity Sensitivity with Lactacyd® Feminine Wash
An intimate wash is designed to address concerns like itching, discomfort, abnormal discharge, and unpleasant odors. Lactacyd® Feminine Wash is an effective solution for soothing the intimate area after exercise or physical activity, helping to calm irritation caused by sweat and friction. Enriched with Lactobiome+™, it strengthens the skin barrier, protects the healthy skin microbiome Lactacyd®, and ensures hydration while helping restore the vaginal pH (pH 3.8–5.0), keeping beneficial bacteria intact to protect against infections.
Many women overuse intimate cleansers, believing that their vaginal area isn’t clean enough. However, the vagina naturally contains good bacteria that serve as a protective barrier. Lactacyd® Feminine Wash, powered by Lactobiome+™, offers a gentle, soothing formula that helps preserve the natural flora while preventing irritation caused by harsh or heavily scented products.
By using a pH-balanced feminine wash like Lactacyd®, you can maintain a fresh, comfortable, and healthy intimate area without disrupting its natural balance. Lactacyd® is safe & gentle because it has Lactobiome+™ that will bring harmony to the femzone, a key for women’s confidence to present her best self.
