Several brands of commercial douches contain vinegar OR baking soda for internal cleansing. The company Melaleuca offers a ****** solution containing tea tree oil.
Some choose to wash VERY thoroughly, and some take a more . . . hands off approach. No pun intended. I think a lot has to do with your personal chemistry, culture, etc. Some of us want to remove or mask ANY form of body odor -- mouth, pits, or parts -- and some don't.
If you are going to use soap thoroughly, in all your cracks and crevices, pits and parts, hither and yon, a gentle, UNSCENTED soap is your best bet. It's often the scents and detergents that get people in trouble.
Yes, peppermint, cinnamon, eucalyptus, tea tree, and clove will leave you tingly. I have a friend who was kitchen manager at a Mexican restaurant for years. He was always nagging about using gloves when handling chile peppers. He regularly sent home prep cooks (mostly male) who ignored him, took a break to use the WC, and had to leave shortly thereafter to go home and wash chile oil off their bits. :silent: Lesson learned.
Girls are fancy on the inside, boys are fancy on the outside. Both need to be clean. But too much of anything can be a bad thing.
