Intimate Care

Gentle washes and care products for intimate hygiene, with pH-balanced, mild formulas.

Gentle intimate care for everyday comfort

The intimate area has delicate skin and its own natural balance, so it deserves products made specifically for it. Ordinary soaps and shower gels can be too harsh and may cause dryness or discomfort. Intimate washes and care products are formulated with a mild pH and gentle ingredients to cleanse and refresh while respecting the skin's natural balance. This collection includes intimate cleansing gels, intimate wipes, soothing care and hair removal products designed for the bikini area.

What to look for

• A balanced pH that is suitable for intimate use.
• Mild cleansing agents that don't strip the skin.
• Soothing ingredients such as aloe vera, calendula or chamomile.
• Fragrance-free or lightly fragranced formulas if your skin is sensitive.
• Dermatologically or gynaecologically tested formulas from trusted pharmacy brands.

How to use intimate care

1. Use an intimate wash externally only, once or twice a day.
2. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and pat dry.
3. Choose breathable cotton underwear.
4. Keep intimate wipes for travel, sport and on the go.

When to seek advice

Intimate care products are cosmetics for daily hygiene and comfort; they do not treat infections or medical conditions. If you notice persistent itching, irritation, unusual discharge or pain, consult a doctor or pharmacist.
