2.0 out of 5 stars Don't Buy: Ingredients Known to Cause Irritation, July 15, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Very Private pH Balanced Body Wash, 6-Ounce Bottle (Health and Beauty)
This product left me confused for a little bit. Their big selling point is that is has obgyn .net's seal of approval, but Very Private is actually a sponsor of the website. On top of that, the website itself doesn't look extremely professional and reliable as a medical reference to begin with. There goes that selling point.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I had a number of problems with the ingredient list (which is only located on the outer product carton):

-Sodium hydroxide, AKA lye, is a strong base. Since the vagina is naturally acidic and has the ability to pH balance itself, this may actually disrupt the natural pH balance of the vagina. So while Very Private is a "pH balanced body wash," it makes no claims to make the user pH balanced as I think many assume.

-Nonoxynol-9 is commonly used as a spermicide. In this case it is used to break down oil (it is a surfactant). However, from its use as a (rather ineffective) spermicide it has been linked to an increased STD infection rate . While its use as a spermicide isn't entirely relevant, I found it to be relevant simply because this is an intimate body wash to be used around sex organs and may cause the same side effects.

-According to Wikipedia, another ingredient, Quaternium-15, "...can cause contact dermatitis, a symptom of an allergic reaction, especially in those with sensitive skin, on an infant's skin, or on sensitive areas such as the genitals." I don't know about you, but I wouldn't put that in an intimate body wash.

-Vanillin is artificial vanilla. I can only assume that they put it there for scent, but for a body wash for sensitive skin that's not helpful in the least.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The product claims to be "Dermatologist tested and approved," but has no mention of FDA approval of its claims of "...containing an effective funga-stat and bacteria-stat, actually helps prevent skin and common vaginal irritations." Methylparaben is an anti-fungal agent, but where the "bacteria-stat" comes from, I have no idea. Obviously, there is no well-known antibiotic in this product, as that would require a prescription.

After suffering from frequent UTI's and yeast infections, I figured anything would be better than heavily scented body wash. This is probably better, but it's not worth $14.99 by any means. Take a fourth of that and buy some unscented baby wash and call it a day. I suggest you do your own research on the ingredient list and come to the same conclusion I did: this product does little to help prevent vaginal infections, and may even help to cause them.

2.0 out of 5 stars Got yeast infection, August 10, 2010

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Very Private pH Balanced Body Wash, 6-Ounce Bottle (Health and Beauty)
I was using Nirena but then they changed the formula and it didn't leave me as fresh. I thought that since I didn't feel it, maybe it was no longer worth the price. This product was cheaper and got good reviews so I tried it. I didn't feel anything with this product either but I did catch a yeast infection for the first time in a few years. I never had yeast infections with Nirena. So I decided that it's worth it to pay the extra and get the product that works.
