5 skin care tips for men's intimate area

Heat and humidity can affect our comfort in men's intimate area, especially in summer or hot weather, since we sweat more, and it is more common for bacteria that cause bad odor to reproduce in the intimate area.

In addition, apart from bad odors, inadequate intimate hygiene can also be the cause of annoying and unwanted itching.

To feel safe, free of bad odors and itching, it is essential to pay attention to hygiene and proper care of this intimate area.

In this article, we present you the 5 essential care tips to keep men's intimate area fresh and protected every day of the year with our Downstairs Fresh, a natural ally to maintain hygiene and comfort in the male intimate area.

The 5 Essential Care Tips for the Male Intimate Zone are:

1. Hygiene comes First

Proper hygiene is the key to maintaining a healthy and comfortable intimate area during the summer. Wash the intimate area daily with a gentle, sulfate-free intimate hygiene gel to avoid irritation, since men have a different pH in the intimate area than women, as we have explained in other articles.

Avoid using soaps with sulfates that can alter the natural pH of the intimate area, which can cause redness and irritation.

Use only an intimate hygiene gel with natural ingredients. It is important that it does not contain petroleum derivatives, ethoxylated emulsifiers, synthetic perfumes, or controversial preservatives (such as parabens, triclosan, phenoxyethanol, etc.).

It is best to choose an organic certified intimate wash like our Downstairs Fresh. Its Organic + Vegan seal certifies that the product is formulated only with natural ingredients that are gentle for both your skin and the environment.

Our Downstairs Fresh is formulated with natural and organic ingredients. It contains Aloe Vera, Jojoba, Abyssinia and Sage, the best to care for the crown jewels the way they deserve.

These natural ingredients provide you with a refreshing and soothing sensation, relieving any discomfort caused by bad odor.

The 100 ml format of Downstairs Fresh makes it practical and convenient to use. You can take it with you anywhere to keep your intimate area fresh and protected all day long.

2. Careful Drying

After each intimate wash, make sure to dry the intimate area completely with a clean, soft towel. Accumulated moisture can encourage the growth of bacteria, which could lead to infections and bad odors.

Remember to always dry by bringing the towel close so that it absorbs the moisture and avoid rubbing too hard.

3. Breathable Underwear

Choose underwear made of breathable materials, such as cotton, that allow adequate air circulation and reduce moisture build-up in the intimate area. Avoid synthetic fabrics that can increase sweating.

4. Moisturizes and protects your skin

If you are using any type of body moisturizer in your intimate area, make sure it is formulated without petroleum derivatives (such as paraffins, silicones, etc.). It has been proven that these types of ingredients create an occlusive layer on the skin, and are not healthy.

Opt for a body cream like our Bare Man for your intimate area. Our body cream contains only premium plant extracts and vegetable oils, such as Rosehip. 

5. Use a Natural Lubricant

If you are prone to redness and irritation in the intimate area, we recommend using a natural lubricant when having intimate relations. If you use a natural lubricant, it will not only increase your feeling of pleasure, but it will also protect your intimate area from friction that can end up irritating your skin.

In this case, we recommend our natural lubricant 4-Play, which being water-based, is the healthiest option (it does not contain silicone), and also does not stain clothes or sheets.

Conclusion:

Maintaining proper hygiene and care of men's intimate area is essential to feeling comfortable and safe throughout the year, especially in the summer. This will help you avoid unpleasant odors and unwanted itching.

The essential care mentioned in this article will help you keep your intimate area fresh and protected naturally.

Plus, our Downstairs Fresh gives you a natural option to feel fresh and confident all day long.

Don't let odors in your intimate area affect you. Always feel comfortable!
