At Honey Girl Organics, we prioritize your health and well-being above all else. When it comes to intimate care products like personal lubricants, it's essential to be aware of the ingredients you're exposing your body to.

Many commercially available lubricants contain harmful chemicals that can disrupt your reproductive health and overall well-being.
Here are 9 ingredients commonly found in personal lubricants that you should steer clear of.

Glycerin, a sugar alcohol, is frequently used in lubricants but can promote bacterial growth and potential yeast infections when used excessively.
