Your Guide to Winter Vulva Care: How Cold Weather Impacts Your Muff

Your Guide to Winter Vulva Care: How Cold Weather Impacts Your Muff

MP Edition 116

Winter might be cozy for most of your body, but for your vulva? Not always. Cold weather, dry air, and cranked-up heaters can leave your muff feeling tight, itchy, or just… out of sorts. If things feel a little off down there this season, here’s why  and what you can do about it.

Why Winter Messes With Your Muff
Dry Air = Dry Skin
Winter air holds less moisture, and indoor heating dries things out even more. The delicate vulvar skin can become tight, itchy, or irritated just like the rest of your winter skin.
Hot Showers Don’t Help
We all love long, steamy showers when it’s cold, but hot water strips natural oils and makes dryness worse.
Cozy Clothes Trap Heat & Moisture
Leggings, tights, and thick underwear keep you warm, but they also keep your vulva from breathing. Less airflow can lead to irritation or imbalance.
Cold Weather Dehydration
We tend to drink less water in winter, which affects natural lubrication and overall comfort.
How to Care for Your Muff in Winter
  • Use gentle, pH-balanced like our green or blue wash! 
  • Keep showers warm - not hot.
  • Moisturize vulva skin with our hydrating lotion that protects even the most sensitive skin. 
  • Choose breathable underwear, even under layers.
  • Let your vulva breathe at night by going commando.
  • Stay hydrated, even if you don’t feel thirsty.
Winter can be rough on your vulva, but a few small tweaks to your routine can keep things comfy and balanced. Think gentle cleansing, breathable fabrics, a little moisture support, and lots of hydration. Your muff deserves to feel good, even when the weather doesn’t.
Muff Love ❤️
