Boric acid (3% or 150mg/5 g) and lactic acid formula for the intimate area
  • Active Boric acid (3%) 

Boric acid has long been used in formulations for its anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties.

  • Lactic acid

Lactic acid also known as a postbiotic is a product of a beneficial microbiome in vagina. It maintains pH balance of the intimate area.

  • Microbiome friendly

The formulation is designed to ensure the beneficial bacteria of the microbiome is not disrupted.

  • Preservative free formulation

Preservatives are mandatory ingredients in creams and can directly attack and disturb microbiome balance. B-clear cream formulation does not contain a preservative, as boric acid is powerful enough to keep the cream clear from any microbiological contamination and gentle enough not to affect beneficial microbiome.

  • Removable precision nozzle 

The removable, washable precision nozzle is designed for convenient and hygienic application to the intimate area.

  • Microbiologist tested 

B-clear cream has been rigorously tested for microbiological contamination including aerobic bacteria, yeast, mould, S. aureus, Pseudomnas spp. and underwent a microbiological challenge test against E. coli and Candida albicans.

The vaginal microbiome

The vaginal microbiome varies both between individuals and ethnic groups.

Healthy

  • Lactobacillus crispatus

    present in vaginas of 65% of women universally (3). It sticks well to vaginal walls and creates stable colonies. It has a high level of lactic acid production. Healthy vagina has a pH value of 3.8-4.5.

  • Lactobacillus gasseri

    present in vaginas in more than 40% of women universally (3) and is second in command healthy population in the vagina creating stable colonies.

  • Lactobacillus jensenii

    is another frequently detected good bacteria in a healthy vagina. This Lactobacillus species is not on the list of permitted ingredients for use in medical products in Australia.

Pathogen / Transitional

  • Lactobacillus iners

    is associated with both normal and abnormal microflora. It either adapts well to the conditions associated with BV (like increased pH) or it is more resistant to certain factors that diminish other Lactobacillus species. It has been described by scientists as a ‘transitional’ species, which means its dominance may indicate that vaginal microbiome is on a way to get disrupted and imbalanced.

  • Gardnerella vaginalis

    is a pathogenic bacteria. The rise of its colonies indicates that the balance in the vaginal microbiome is disrupted and unstable. The overgrowth and dominance of this bacteria is one of the main signs of bacterial vaginosis or BV.

  • Candida albicans

    is a fungus present in the vaginal microbiome in small quantities. Its overgrowth causes vaginal yeast infections.

1 3

  • The vaginal microbiome also contains non-lactobacillus bacterial species. Their dominance may be normal in some ethnic groups, but could also be a sign of an unhealthy vaginal microbiome (3).

Warnings

  • Do not use on irritated, itching, peeling, broken skin or open wounds.
  • Persistent, unusual odour or discharge may indicate conditions for which a physician should be consulted.
  • Discontinue use immediately if rash, irritation or discomfort develops.
  • Do not consume orally.
