9 Ways to Keep Your Vagine Feeling Fresh as a Daisy

Because sometimes your V needs a little extra care.

By Amanda Hawkins

Summer is coming. And with summer? The dreaded chub rub, sweaty pits, and uncomfortable, irritated private parts. (Heaven forbid we actually say the word vagina!) But here's the thing about vaginas—they're really not taboo to talk about anymore. Gone are the "not so fresh" commercials and, thank goodness they've been replaced with a culture of empowered women who want to boost their feminine hygiene...without the shame and embarrassment we all grew up experiencing.

So if you're looking for intimate products for your intimate parts look no further than down here for down there. Gosh, I’m going to have a lot of fun with innuendo in this story...

1. Honey Pot Personal Wipes

If you need a quick clean in a pinch, carry a pack of Honey Pot's feminine care wipes. They are fragrance-free, so you won't leave the office bathroom with a freshly scented vagina. The wipes themselves maintain your V's pH balance that help you feel clean and refreshed all day long. Oh, and they're organic and chlorine- and pesticide-free! So you can mentally feel good about using these wipes while you'll physically feel pretty good, too.

3. Amaira Vaginal Tightening Gel

I don't feel comfortable using the word "tighten" in general, so I'll just let the product name to speak for itself. The gel not only works as a natural moisturizer—it’ll help stop itching and irritation—while it also strengthens your V. Amaira is made in the good ol’ U S of A in an FDA-licensed facility, so you can feel good about shopping this line of products.

4. Summer's Eve Night-Time Cleansing Cloths

Swampy weather is upon us! And if the higher temps have you feeling less-than-fresh between your thighs, stock up on cleansing cloths. Carrying Summer’s Eve with you on the go, or keep them close by right before bed. They wipe away odor-causing bacteria in seconds and the light lavender scent will, well, smell great! (In fact, lavender is supposed to help you fall asleep faster, so these cleansing cloths could put you to sleep while keeping you cool and feeling fresh.)

5. RepHresh Pro-B Probiotic Feminine Supplement

If you're prone to yeast infections, you might need to balance out your hooha's pH levels. What are your pH levels you might be asking? Basically, anything lower than a 7 is said to be acidic (yikes), and anything over 7 is basic—in a good way! Our ideal pH level is slightly more basic at 7.30–7.45, and RepHresh can help get you all squared away downtown. Take one capsule a daily to keep your nether regions’ pH levels in the right range.
