Why Do We Care About Microbiomes, aka Healthy Bacteria  

How Feminine Balance Complex Keeps Your Body On Point 

Support Whole Body Balance with Feminine Balance Complex 

If you’re new to vaginal health, whole-body health, or even the concept of self-care, you might not be used to the idea that your body is naturally home to trillions of microorganisms. This body-wide bacterial community is known as your microbiome, and feeding it with Feminine Balance Complex supports whole-body wellness.  

Why Do We Care About Microbiomes, aka Healthy Bacteria 

Your microbiome is kind of a big deal. It keeps your immune system strong, your skin clear, your tummy calm, and your vagina happy. A depleted, unbalanced microbiome not only leaves us vulnerable to all kinds of illness, disease, and cancers, it can result in pH imbalances all over the body. 

Chronic pH imbalances often lead to recurring vaginal yeast infections and bacterial vaginosis (BV), or even an explosion of yeast in your gut, known as candidiasis. It helps to think of your microbiome as the foundation of your overall health. Without a healthy one, digestion is painful, acne is cystic, and your vagina is almost always on fire.  

How Feminine Balance Complex Keeps Your Body On Point 

We formulated Feminine Balance Complex with the same strains of healthy bacteria that naturally live all over and inside your body, known commonly as probiotics. Taking probiotics on a regular basis helps any depleted bacterial communities in your gut and vagina to repopulate.  

Unfortunately, with modern levels of sugar consumption and oral antibiotic use, taking a probiotic isn’t always enough to keep your microbiome happy. That’s why the Feminine Balance Complex also includes a potent cocktail of six natural yeast and bad bacteria killers. From oregano to wormwood, these plant-based antifungals and antimicrobials have been used for centuries to treat infections of all kinds.  

By killing off any yeast overgrowths in your system, your microbiome has a much better chance to rebalance itself naturally.  

Whether or not you’ve dealt with chronic indigestion and yeast infections your whole life, balancing your microbiome is a crucial step in the journey towards whole body balance. For more information on getting and staying healthy, get in touch with a team member here, or check out our blog.  

Why Does Anyone Need a Lotion for Their Vagina? 

pH Balancing Vagisoft Does More Than Keep You Comfortable  

Vagisoft: Say Goodbye to Vaginal Irritation & Razor Burn  

The bikini area is an infamous source of irritation, bumps, redness, and dry skin – especially post-hair removal. Sometimes that discomfort migrates North a little into delicate internal areas too – and it sucks. But there also happens to be a pH balancing cream for all that, so you don’t have to keep putting up with the discomfort. 

Hold Up. Do We Really Need a Lotion for Our Vaginas? 

Yes – regardless of whether or not you shave or indulge in a regular Brazilian wax.  

Your skin’s moisture barrier, which you help maintain by drinking water and using moisturizers, protects the skin from damage, infection, and irritation. Both your vagina and your vulva, aka the labia around your vagina, is extra sensitive and therefore needs even more protection, love, and care than other parts of your body.  

This is one of the reasons that a particular area is so prone to redness, irritation, itch, razor burn, ingrown hairs, etc. Especially during and after hair removal.  

As we age, the skin around our vaginas and vulvas gets drier, just like the skin all over the rest of our bodies. This can make irritation and discomfort worse, even for folks who are lucky enough to not know what razor burn all over your crotch feels like.

pH Balancing Vagisoft Does More Than Keep You Comfortable 

There are plenty of vagina lotions already out there in the wild, but most “feminine hygiene” products are intended to make you smell like your mother’s favorite scented candle instead of actually protecting and balancing your body. This scent-forward vaginal hydration can also throw off pH and worsen irritation. Thanks, Patriarchy.

When we created Vagisoft, we decided to change that. Like every vaginal health product we offer, Vagisoft balances pH with natural plant-based ingredients. It also deeply hydrates delicate vaginal tissues inside and out. Yes, you heard that right. Vagisoft doubles as an internal vaginal lubricant that heals as much as it hydrates.  

We also included clinically-backed herbs like dong quai and chaste tree berry extract to help maintain hormonal balance, which can play a role in combatting vaginal dryness as we age.  

Even if “staying lubricated” has never been a personal concern of yours, the honey, Vitamin E, and aloe vera in Vagisoft also works to clear up acne, redness, and irritation without throwing off your vaginal pH or causing even more vaginal discomfort. Pretty sweet, huh?

Vaginal pH Testing Strips Let You Know What’s Up 

There are pH Testing Strips for Your Bum Too 

Vaginal pH Testing Strips: Stop Guessing & Get Testing 

Starting to feel that tell-tale itch, or a bit of dryness? It could be a simple pH imbalance, OR an actual vaginal condition, like a yeast infection or bacterial vaginosis. Instead of guestimating your next steps, take one of our pH testing strips for a test drive.  

Vaginal pH Testing Strips Let You Know What’s Up 

The vaginal environment is pretty sensitive and it doesn’t take much to throw it off. Things like everyday stress, having a sex life, and chilling in a wet swimsuit for too long can leave you feeling itchy, uncomfortable, and just off feeling.  

But your vaginal health doesn’t have to be a mystery. Vaginal pH testing strips can give you an idea of just how things really are. A healthy vagina is usually a little acidic and can have a pH anywhere between 3.8 and 4.5.  

If your vagina is just too acidic or alkaline, you might need a topical pH balancing cream or refresher spray to return your vagina back to its happy place. If things are really off, well, then it’s a lot more likely that you have an actual infection, and you’re going to need a vaginal suppository to clear it up.  

There are pH Testing Strips for Your Bum Too 

Oh yeah. We’re dead serious. You might not realize it, but your bum needs some pH balancing too from time to time. It’s common for yeast infections and skin rashes to wreak havoc on your booty and rectal area, especially for those with compromised immune systems. Testing your rectal pH can help you figure out the source of your discomfort before you go on a panic trip to the drug store.  

To test your rectal pH, we recommend using our full-range intimate testing strips. They cover a wide enough pH range to test for both vaginal and rectal imbalances. And if it turns out that your bum has a genuine imbalance or infection, our gentle Tea Tree Suppositories have your back.
