How to make your own natural feminine hygiene soap
Suppose you’re looking for a more natural alternative to conventional feminine hygiene products. In that case, these DIY soap recipes are perfect for you! Made with ingredients like coconut oil and shea butter, these soaps will help to keep your skin healthy and hydrated while also providing gentle cleansing and protection. Plus, they smell amazing!
- Combine the castile soap, water, and glycerin in a small bowl. Mix well and set aside.
- In a medium-sized pot, melt the coconut oil over low heat. Once melted, add the shea butter and cocoa butter. Stir until completely melted.
- Remove from heat and let cool for about 5 minutes. Add the essential oils and mix well.
- Pour the liquid mixture into the bowl with the soap mixture and stir until combined.
- Pour into molds (I used a silicone muffin tin) and let harden for at least 2 hours overnight. Store in a cool, dry place.
This soap is gentle enough to use every day. I like to keep one in the shower and one by the sink for hand-washing throughout the day.
Guide to using an intimate wash
It’s important to choose the right intimate wash for your needs to keep your vagina healthy and clean. Here’s a guide to using an intimate wash:
Make sure you buy a product designed for use on the vulva and vagina. These products will be pH-balanced and won’t strip away the natural oils that protect your delicate skin.- Always follow the instructions on the packaging. In general, you should use a small amount of wash daily.
- Apply the wash to the outside of your vagina, not the inside. Use gentle circular motions and avoid scrubbing harshly.
- Rinse thoroughly with warm water. Be sure to remove all traces of the intimate wash before drying off.
- Store your intimate wash in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing it in the bathroom, where it can be exposed to moisture.
