If
you remember I took part in blogging about Bacterial Vaginosis awareness
day which was on 16 April (you can read about here).
“Bacterial
Vaginosis (BV) is the most common form of vaginal infection. It is
caused by an imbalance in the naturally occurring bacteria within the
vagina and leads to a variety of symptoms, including embarrassing
odour, abnormal discharge and discomfort”.
I
never heard of this infection before until I was made aware of it by
Balance Active. I was not only provided with the information about BV
which I shared with you, my lovely readers but I was also sent a
sample pack of Ph Balanced Intimate Wipes (£1.79) to try out.
“The
pH Balanced Intimate Wipes have a unique formulation with Lactic
Acid. Proven to reduce odour, the wipes leave you feeling clean and
fresh and are ideally balanced at a pH of 4.5. The wipes benefit from
being paraben and fragrance free and are flushable”.
I
must say that it is the hardest review I have done so far, as you
can't really see or feel any difference. I do hope that those who actually have BV notice the difference.
The
pack (10 wipes in a pack) itself looks similar to wet wipes we all know with a
resealable strip. When I have opened the pack I couldn't smell
anything as they are fragrance free. I'm not sure if it's good or
bad, from my point of view it would be more reassuring if they were
fragranced.
As
it is a small size pack it can easily fit into a small clutch. It can
be perfect for freshing up if you know that you won't be able to take
a shower but need to get rid off that unpleasant odour.
Ph
Balanced Intimate Wipes are:
- proven
to reduce odour
- leaves
you feeling clean and fresh
- ideal
pH Balance of 4.5
- paraben
free- fragrance free
The
wipe is long enough to be folded twice to make it thicker if you want
to make sure all is thoroughly cleaned.
I
used it to freshen up and if I felt that I might be “sweaty” and it
did the job, but like I mentioned before I would like it to be
fragranced or at least to have a choice- fragrance free and
fragranced wipes.

Active products and where to buy them please follow this link.
