Kitty Balm Herbal Vulva Salve is a soothing and nourishing balm specifically designed to provide relief and comfort for women during all stages of life. Made with targeted natural plant oils, this salve helps to moisturize and rejuvenate delicate skin, providing gentle relief from dryness and discomfort. Whether you are experiencing dry, itchy chafing due to pads and tampons or dryness from peri/menopause symptoms, this balm provides soothing, moisturizing relief. Can also be used for post-shave/wax relief, postpartum healing, painful vaginal atrophy or as a post intercourse healing balm. Each plant oil was picked for its special lipid properties to help rejuvinate the vulva and labia tissue, lock in and produce more moisture, and balance vaginal flora. The essential oils are minimal and safely diluted to be gentle on this intimate area without causing irritation, but still strong enough to target bacterial overgrowth as a preventative for bacterial vaginosis and yeast infections.
