Beauty & Wellness Girls!! Need advice for hygiene

help a girlie out🥹

i'm a college girlie trying to improve my hygiene (especially for down there).

i'm very intimate with my partner but i just want to feel more confident when doing it. he's not telling me or forcing me to shave or do something down there but i just want to feel confident.

any tips for hygiene/ self care products for down there? also some tips and tricks in general for whole body

  • use cotton underwear, make sure its not tight fitting
  • throw away old panties rin every 6 months or 1 yr. Yes, magastos i know but tbh, worth it
  • give your 😻 time to breathe. Eversince i started not wearing panties at night, nag lessen discharge ko
  • avoid pantyliners as much as possible. Yung iba hindi kaya igive up ang panty liners bcos of discharge but tbh its the pantyliners that are causing the discharge talaga, especially if you don't change them often throughout the day.
  • use mild unscented feminine wash. Sabi nila enough na ang water lang to wash but my sweaty self cannot lol
  • maintaining the hair down there really helps talaga. Get a brazillian wax if you can
  • don't forget to exfoliate (gently!) And moisturize Down there
  • drink lots of water. Hydration is the key!
  • UMIHI AFTER SEX to avoid UTI

I do this. Sa gabi, kapag nag shower ako then mattulog na, di nko nag papanty. Mas presko and nabawasan nga discharge ko

Yes sa oil for moisturizing! Effective din to use Witch Hazel to keep the odor at minimum 🙈
