Vaginal Moisturizers

That means a hyaluronic acid suppository for internal hydration and a fragrance-free vulva cream for delicate external skin, so you can find the format (or the full routine) that fits where you are right now.

What Is a Vaginal Moisturizer?

A vaginal moisturizer is a non-hormonal, over-the-counter product you use on a regular cadence to help support ongoing comfort and moisture. It is different from a lubricant. A lubricant is used in the moment, usually for sex, while a moisturizer is part of your routine, used every few days whether or not anything is planned.

Some vaginal moisturizers work internally, inserted into the vagina. Others are external, applied to the vulva like an external vaginal moisturizer for the delicate skin outside. Which one you reach for depends on where you feel the dryness.

Internal or External? Find Your Format

You have two formats to choose from, and many women use both. Here is how to tell them apart.

Internal moisture support: Comfy Suppository™

Comfy Suppository™ is a hyaluronic acid vaginal moisturizer you insert at bedtime, made to help support moisture from the inside, right where vaginal tissue can feel dry. Hyaluronic acid is a humectant that helps restore a comfortable level of moisture, and tremella (snow) mushroom helps hold that hydration for long-lasting comfort.

It is hormone-free, fragrance-free, and applicator-free (just clean hands). Use one vaginal moisture suppository every 2 to 3 nights. If you have been looking for a vaginal suppository for dryness, this is the internal piece.

External vulva care: Comfy Cream®

Comfy Cream® is a fragrance-free vulva moisturizer for the external skin only: the vulva and bikini area, never inside the vagina. It is anhydrous, which means it contains no water, so there is no pH to disrupt. Made for sensitive skin, it is lightweight, quickly absorbed, and helps soothe dry, delicate skin prone to irritation.

If you want a vulva cream for dryness, or a gentle moisturizer for private parts to use after cleansing or hair removal, this is your external option.

The full routine: Skincare for Down There™ Bundle

Prefer a complete routine? The Skincare for Down There™ Bundle pairs Comfy Cream® with our pH Balanced Cleanser™ and pH Balanced Wipes™, so you can cleanse, moisturize, and refresh in one simple daily rhythm. The cleanser is matched to your body's naturally acidic pH, a gentle first step before you moisturize.

What to Look For in a Vaginal Moisturizer

Not sure how to pick the best vaginal moisturizer for you? A few things worth looking for in a natural, non-hormonal vaginal moisturizer:

• Hormone-free and estrogen-free, so it works with your body without added hormones

• Fragrance-free, dye-free, and paraben-free, which matters for sensitive skin

• Hyaluronic acid as the humectant, to help attract and hold moisture

• A pH-conscious formulation that won't disrupt your natural balance

• Made for sensitive, delicate skin

• Formulated with OB/GYN input

When Dryness Shows Up

Dryness tends to track with the hormonal shifts of different life stages. A few common ones:

• Postpartum: postpartum vaginal dryness is common while hormones resettle after birth.

• Perimenopause and menopause: dryness often becomes more noticeable as estrogen naturally shifts.

• Medication- or hormone-related changes: some medications can affect moisture, too.

How to Use a Vaginal Moisturizer

How you use a vaginal moisturizer depends on the format:

• Suppository (internal): insert one at bedtime every 2 to 3 nights. Expect some discharge overnight, so a thin liner keeps things comfortable. Insert after you have emptied your bladder, and note it is not recommended alongside latex condoms.

• Cream (external): use as a daily vaginal moisturizer on clean, dry skin, applied to the vulva and bikini area after cleansing. Never inside the vagina.

Vaginal Moisturizer FAQ

What's the difference between a vaginal moisturizer and a lubricant?
A moisturizer is used on a regular cadence to help support ongoing comfort and moisture. A lubricant is used in the moment, usually during sex. Many women use both, for different reasons.

What causes vaginal dryness?
Dryness is often tied to hormonal shifts, like those around postpartum, perimenopause, and menopause, and it can also relate to certain medications. For a fuller picture, see our guide on what causes vaginal dryness.

Can I use a vulva cream inside my vagina?
No. Comfy Cream® is a vulva cream for external use only, made for the vulva and bikini area. For internal moisture, reach for Comfy Suppository™ instead.

Is it okay to moisturize down there?
Yes. The external skin of the vulva can get dry and irritated like skin anywhere else, and a fragrance-free vulva moisturizer made for sensitive skin can help support comfort. Keep external products external, and choose an internal format for inside the vagina.

Are these moisturizers hormone-free?
Yes. Both Comfy Suppository™ and Comfy Cream® are hormone-free and non-hormonal, with no added estrogen.
