12. A plant-derived foaming intimate wash, which boasts a blend of moisturizing lactic acid, pH-balancing apple cider vinegar, hydrating coconut, and lavender to help soothe your most sensitive parts of irritation. It’s hypoallergenic, gynecologist-tested, and designed for vulvas by someone with a vulva to help keep you feeling fresh down below.
This external cleanser is also dermatologist-tested and paraben-, sulfate-, and dioxide-free!
The vagina may be self-cleaning, but the vulva is not. So, I use this wash. When I was using it consistently, I could definitely feel a “difference” in my nether regions…a lot less irritation and a little relief after gentle exfoliation with a sugar scrub (#14 in this post!). Anyways, this product is created with natural ingredients, including coconut oil, lavender, grapefruit seed extract and apple cider vinegar. For people with more sensitive skin, there’s also a Sensitive Foaming Wash.
The Honey Pot Company is a Black- and woman-owned small business that creates vaginal health products for people with vaginas using plant-derived and cruelty-free ingredients.
Promising reviews: “I use this wash daily, mind you growing up I have never used a feminine wash. I’ve been using this product, I want to say for about four to five years. This product works very well. I like the scent, how fresh I feel and the foaming action. Sometimes the pumps malfunction but I have learned to keep a properly working one in the event that happens. This item is also a staple in my home.” —Paddy Monthly
“I use this wash in the shower every day. I feel like it gets me cleaner than regular soap or other feminine washes. I sweat a lot and this wash keeps me feeling fresh longer.” —Gigi
