When you first become aware of the need for intimate care as part of your female hygiene routine, the prospect of choosing the right wash, liner or wipe can be overwhelming.

But knowing which feminine hygiene products are beneficial for you needn’t be daunting.

You can simplify the whole process by thinking about your lifestyle and how that affects your specific needs when it comes to intimate care. Because how you spend your day, your grooming habits and certain life stages, all have an impact on your feminine hygiene routine.

If you are a teenager

Whether you’ve started your periods or not, you need to keep your V-zone scrupulously clean. As part of your daily hygiene routine, use an intimate wash such as Libresse® V-Care Daily Purifying Intimate Wash Gel that is gently fragranced with natural Water Lily & Cotton Flower extracts which gently cleanses leaving your intimate area skin feeling soft and pH balanced. And, as irregular menstruation, spotting and discharge can be frequent and unpredictable in your teens, wear a Libresse® Daily liners every day to keep your V-zone fresh and comfortable.

If you are sporty

Post-sport cleanliness is really important. Use Libresse® V-Care Daily Purifying Intimate Wash Gel when you have your post-sport shower. If you’re in a rush, try using Libresse® V-Care Daily Purifying Intimate Wipes, which will cleanse and refresh your V-zone. A breathable liner, such as Libresse® V-Care Daily Purifying Liners, will also keep you feeling clean and comfortable throughout the day.

If you travel frequently

When you spend long periods on the move and can’t shower as frequently as you’d like, you can stay fresh by using Libresse® Daily Purifying Liners. Just like cotton underwear, these liners are breathable, meaning they keep your V-zone clean and comfy. And try using Libresse® V-Care Daily Purifying Intimate Wipes after you’ve been to the bathroom. They’ll freshen you up, help you stay odour-free and maintain your V-zone’s delicate pH balance.

If you are a new mum

After giving birth your intimate area is likely to be sore and inflamed. An intimate wash, like Libresse® V-Care Daily Purifying Intimate Wash Gel, is great for soothing and calming skin. Libresse® V-Care Daily Purifying Liners, meanwhile, will protect your underwear from postnatal discharge and help keep the area clean and odour-free. Using Libresse® V-Care Daily Purifying Intimate Wipes will also freshen your V-Zone and maintain natural pH after you’ve been to the bathroom.
