The Science-Backed Power of Botanical Oils
We chose our base oils for their deep hydration, skin-repairing properties, and their ability to nourish delicate tissue—because you deserve the best.
Jojoba Oil: The Skin Whisperer
Jojoba oil is nature’s version of your skin’s own moisturizing system. It mimics sebum, the skin’s natural oil, meaning it hydrates without clogging pores or disrupting your pH balance. Plus, it has anti-inflammatory properties that help with irritation and dryness (Pazyar et al., 2013).
Olive Oil: The Ancient Elixir
Used for centuries as a natural moisturizer, olive oil is packed with antioxidants and fatty acids that help repair skin barriers, lock in hydration, and soothe irritation (Lin, Zhong, & Santiago, 2018). Research even suggests that olive oil can be a gentle and effective alternative to traditional vaginal moisturizers for postmenopausal women dealing with dryness (Vardhan et al., 2017).
Avocado Oil: The Hydration Hero
Avocado oil is bursting with vitamin E, essential fatty acids, and phytosterols that help with moisture retention, skin repair, and inflammation reduction (Basile et al., 2017). It’s especially beneficial for menopausal skin, which naturally loses hydration and elasticity over time.
Infused Botanicals for Deep Nourishment & Comfort
These herbs have been used for centuries to support skin health, and modern science confirms what our ancestors already knew.
Chamomile: The Soothing Superstar
Chamomile isn’t just for tea—it’s a powerful anti-inflammatory, antifungal, and antibacterial herb that helps calm irritation, reduce itching, and balance vaginal flora (Srivastava, Shankar, & Gupta, 2010). A clinical trial found that chamomile vaginal gel significantly improved sexual function and vaginal dryness in postmenopausal women (Jahdi et al., 2022).
Calendula: The Skin Healer
Calendula is like a hug for irritated skin. It has wound-healing, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties, making it a go-to for soothing vaginal dryness and irritation (Preethi, Kuttan, & Kuttan, 2009). It’s even been studied as a natural alternative to metronidazole for treating bacterial vaginosis—and it performed just as well without any harsh side effects (Torkzahrani et al., 2018).
St. John’s Wort: The Tissue Repairer
St. John’s Wort is known for its anti-inflammatory and nerve-soothing properties, making it ideal for sensitive, delicate skin (Schempp et al., 2003). It’s also been studied as part of a vaginal suppository blend for treating vaginitis, with significant improvement in symptoms (Rafieian-Kopaei et al., 2020).
Yarrow: The Ancient Tonic
Yarrow has long been used to support tissue repair and soothe inflammation. Its high flavonoid content helps promote circulation and balance moisture levels, making it great for maintaining vaginal and vulvar health (Orav et al., 2006).
Essential Oils for Extra Nourishment & Protection
Lavender: The Fungal Fighter
Not only does lavender oil smell amazing, but it’s also a natural antifungal—shown to be effective against Candida albicans, the pesky yeast responsible for most vaginal infections ([Pinto et al., 2009](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/
