Products to use on itchy labia?

[begintohope.livejournal.com]

My labia (both inner and outer) are all red and irritated because I didn't shave for a few days and got some killer stubble. Now that I've shaved, can anyone recommend a vagina-safe product or ingredient that I can put on my bits to soothe them? My aloe gel contains glycerine, so I'm hesitant to put it down there.

I often use coconut oil or glaxal base. I like coconut oil because of its antifungal properties (I get a lot of yeast infections), but I find glaxal base more soothing. It smells pretty strong though (I'm sure no one can smell it though).

I also sometimes use a calendula salve.

Hope this helps!

Ooh, I actually have some coconut oil! Thanks for the suggestion, I should've thought of that.
