Description

We took our best-selling Cleansing Bar and made it even gentler, in a NEW perfume-free and gynaecologist tested formula.

With lactic acid to feed your resident good bacteria, guarantee protection &  balance, and with an acidic pH of 5.6 it’s the perfect formula for your vulva.

Its ultra-gentle, soap-free, perfume-free formula makes it the perfect cleanser for all sensitives parts, from your intimate area to babies’ delicate skin to sensitive and atopy-prone skin.

Fun Fact: The vaginal microbiome is one of the only parts of the body where diversity is NOT key. The Lactobacillus is the key good bacteria and should remain so to prevent infections and imbalances.

 

Dr Marie Drago, founder: “Our cleansing bar was already one of our cult product, but now it’s even better. I’m so proud of the results of our tests on this one, and of the fact, you can really use it on any sensitive zone. A soap that’s not a soap, but still the best soap you’ll ever use!”

Key Ingredients

PREBIOTICS: A mix of ultra-gentle fibres and sugars that feed your skin’s good bacteria and help support the skin’s barrier, with an antibacterial action against bad bacteria.

LACTIC ACID: The gentlest of AHAs, lactic acid helps the skin to stay at its optimal pH level and has hydrating and softening properties. Gallinée uses a slow-release form to suit even sensitive skin.

PHYSIOLOGICAL PH: All Gallinée products are made to match the optimal pH of the skin and the microbiome.

WITHOUT: perfume, soap, colourants, parabens, mineral oils, silicones, microbeads, phenoxyethanol or methylisothiazolinone.

How to use

Gently massage into damp skin and rinse. For external use only:  vaginas are self-cleansing, only the vulva should be cleansed.

Gentle enough for face & body.

Read moreI liked this very much, not only because of the sustainability factor that comes with it being in cardboard packaging but more so that I could use it on very damaged skin, during my acne medication. It works amazingly with sensitized skin, forms a soft lather, and gently & efficiently cleanses impurities. In my case, it also helped with building back my skin barrier, and also protecting what was left of it at that point. It also lasts a long time, doesn't leave the skin feeling dry nor stripped, or tight, and my skin almost looks..glowy from within.

I’m prone to dry skin with oily pores and it has helped balance this. I apply it with one of those vibrating silicon face brushes to get a really deep clean and it never dries my skin out leaving a good base for acids and gel moisturisers. After using for a few months now, my skin is less tight and aggravated. It’s also so sensitive and good for lathering that I use it as a moisturising shaving foam with my safety razor.

    Love this product great for my skin both face and body. However, it could be a better shape - very awkward to turn a square in your hands to get it to lather - a rounder pebble shape would be better.

I use it on my body too, and it lathers up SO well which is excellent because it goes a long way. It isn’t drying and leaves my skin feeling fresh and clean. It rinses off quickly too.

Read moreI absolutely LOVE this product. I looked high and low for a satisfactory replacement for a discontinued cleansing bar, originally formulated for infants, that was gentle, non-irritating, perfume- and dye-free, and that I had used for many years for intimate cleansing. I even tried various gentle facial cleansers for sensitive skin but found nothing that felt right. After stumbling across a review from a columnist in The Guardian I decided to try the Gallinée perfume-free bar. It is exactly what I was looking for. Yes, it is very expensive, but it is worth the price and I will continue to purchase it.

Read moreI bought this cleansing bar after a positive review in “The Guardian”. It’s excellent. I use it on my face and body. I love being able to cleanse, knowing it’s not going to trigger any kind of irritation in those sensitive areas! My face feels good too. I’m going to give my sister a bar for Christmas (I took advantage of the 3 bars for 30 offer).The free samples were a lovely bonus and next time I order, I’ll be looking at ordering some extra products.

    I purchased the cleansing bar after reading a review in a national newspaper and I'm pleased I did. I will be buying more Gallinee products in the future for sure.

(And I have tried more than I care to admit). I just wish they sold a container for it as i struggle to store it and keep it safe when its drying and not in use. I do not like keeping my soap bars in the shower because i live with other people.

I've heard that vaginas are self-cleansing, why this cleansing bar?

You are 100% right. Vagina, on top of being amazing, are self-cleansing. You should never wash inside, with or without accessories such as douche.
It’s the vulva, the external part, that needs gentle daily cleansing.
