All essential oils for intimate hygiene can be roughly divided into several large categories. The division takes place according to the principle of the purpose of each of the means.

There are many manufacturing companies that produce essential oils for intimate hygiene. Let's consider the most popular options.

When choosing an oil for intimate hygiene, first of all, it is recommended to decide for what purpose the product is being purchased. So, if only moisturizing is needed, then you should pay attention to the line of products that have such an effect.

When buying oil for intimate hygiene, you should consider many important nuances:

• it is necessary to familiarize yourself with the composition: the composition should include mainly natural ingredients (at least chemistry);
• the consistency of the product should be of medium viscosity;
• the aroma should not be too harsh.

If the oil is purchased in order to get rid of candidiasis, then it should be borne in mind that the agent should be a component of a comprehensive treatment, since it is not initially a drug. Rather, the oil is able to alleviate the course of the disease.

It is noteworthy that such essential oils (regardless of the category) can be used as massage oils. It is very important for a woman to feel constant comfort in the intimate area, therefore, if the oil causes any unpleasant sensations, then it is recommended to immediately abandon its use.

Essential oils for intimate hygiene can be used from 12-14 years old. But for girls at this age, you should not purchase products intended for adults. It is best to opt for children's options.

It is best to use the product during water procedures. The application process is quite simple: a small amount of oil must be applied to the intimate area, gently massage and rinse with warm water.

Experts recommend a sensitivity test before use. To do this, apply a small amount of essential liquid to the elbow and leave for several hours. If during this time uncomfortable sensations are not observed, then the tool can be safely used for its intended purpose.
