We’re all familiar with the saying ‘you are what you eat’, but how about ‘you are what you put on your skin’?

When a product is applied to the body externally, the ingredients within it can actually enter the body through the skin. These substances then pass into the blood stream and circulate around the body. Brilliant news if your products contain natural nourishing skin foods. Not so great if they’re filled with chemical nasties. That’s why YES products are made only with pure and natural ingredients, free from synthetics additives, parabens and petrochemicals.

Steering clear of chemical substances means that YES products are filled with certified organic, plant-based ingredients which all have their own incredible ‘natural healing’ properties. Now, it’s fair to say that the team have a fair amount of product handy in the office and at home, and as resourceful as we are, have discovered that YES products can double up as something above and beyond solely an intimacy range. Here are some alternative uses that we’ve stumbled upon, for YES products:

Massage Oil

YES OB plant-oil based lubricant is a natural alternative to silicone lubricants. Due to its high viscosity and nourishing formula, including plant oils shea butter and cocoa butter, YES OB works perfectly as a massage oil, as well as a longer lasting intimate lube!

Anti-Chaffing Product

YES OB’s long-lasting glide can be put to use in a multitude of ways! Whether you’re running or cycling, a number of our customers (male and female) have used YES OB as an anti-chaffing lubricant. Simply apply it to the inside of tight-fitting sports gear to protect your skin from friction burns.

After-Sun Lotion

Aloe vera is the primary ingredient in our hydrating YES WB water-based lubricant, renowned for its incredible ability to soothe and repair damaged skin. The high quantity of aloe vera extract in YES WB, means that this product can also be utilised as a fantastic after-sun ointment. Simply apply to the tender spots for instant pain relief.

Body Wash

YES CLEANSE Intimate Foaming Wash is designed to be externally applied to the intimate area, washing away odour causing bacteria without irritation. Due to the purity and high quality of the organic ingredients, plus gentle foaming action, a number of our customers use YES CLEANSE as a face, body and even hair wash. 

We’re thrilled that YES products are benefiting customers in numerous ways, and we’re prouder than ever of our fantastic, certified organic intimacy range which you can find here.

    Why plant-based care matters more in menopause

    As oestrogen naturally falls in peri- and post-menopause, the vulva and vagina can become thinner, drier and less stretchy, leading to soreness, itching, tightness and painful sex.

Instead, it shows up quietly — as dryness, discomfort, irritation, or pain during sex — leaving women wondering: Is this normal? Is something wrong with me? Will this get worse? Can it be treated without hormones? If you’ve asked...
