Why the Intimate Area Deserves Specific Care
The skin of the feminine intimate area is in contact with mucous membranes and requires products with an adapted pH, a balanced microbiota and a formulation that does not alter its natural barrier. The use of inappropriate products can disrupt vaginal microflora, causing irritation, dryness or discomfort. Effective intimate care starts with choosing the right ingredients.
Intimate Microbiota and pH: the Key to Balance
The feminine intimate area has a natural acidic pH of between 3.8 and 4.5 that protects against infections and maintains the beneficial microflora. Alterations in this balance, due to inappropriate hygiene products, stress or hormonal changes, can generate imbalances resulting in irritation, dryness or recurrent infections. Prebiotic actives are key to restoring and maintaining this equilibrium.
Feminine intimate care is one of the fastest growing segments in Europe and LATAM. The cultural openness to self-care, microbiome awareness and the normalisation of intimate routines are generating a highly technically demanding market. Formulators and brands seek clinically backed actives, compatible with vaginal pH and capable of reinforcing the natural microbial ecosystem without altering the balance.

Actives for Feminine Intimate Cosmetics
Cobiosa proposes three complementary actives for the development of a complete and effective feminine intimate cosmetics line: Cobiobalance, for microbiota and pH balance; Chiaprotect, for calming and anti-redness action; and Cobiogum, as a 100% natural gelling and hydrating agent. All three have a safety profile adapted to the intimate area.
Cobiobalance: prebiotic for pH balance
Cobiobalance is a prebiotic extract from Peruvian Yacon juice that regulates the microbiota and pH of the intimate area, maintaining the beneficial microflora and stimulating the skin's natural defences. Its prebiotic action modulates the microbial ecosystem without eliminating the beneficial flora, providing sustained comfort and wellbeing compatible with daily use.
Chiaprotect and Cobiogum: calming and deep hydration
Chiaprotect, an extra virgin oil from Salvia hispanica seeds rich in Omega 3 and vitamins, immediately calms and softens the skin of the intimate area, reduces redness and strengthens the skin in the long term. Cobiogum, derived from the seed of Caesalpinia spinosa, is a 100% natural gelling agent that provides lasting hydration and a pleasant texture.
Formulation: Cleansing Foam, Calming Gel and Hydrating Gel
Cobiosa presents three reference formulas for feminine intimate cosmetics: the cleansing foam with Cobiobalance for daily hygiene, the calming oily gel with Chiaprotect for recovery and relief of irritations, and the intimate hydrating gel with Cobiogum and sodium hyaluronate for deep hydration. Each format addresses a specific need.
Intimate Cleansing Foam with Cobiobalance
The intimate cleansing foam combines 5% Cobiobalance with Sophocoll, a gentle surfactant from coconut collagen amino acids, and Panthenol in an aqueous base with pH adjusted to 5.00-5.50. It provides gentle and effective cleansing that deeply cares for intimate skin, regulates the microbiota, maintains the beneficial microflora and balances the pH to promote comfort.
Calming Oily Gel and Hydrating Gel: targeted treatments
The calming oily gel incorporates 4% Chiaprotect in a base of Sapogel Q and shea butter to calm irritation and nourish the intimate area. The intimate hydrating gel formulates with 1.2% Cobiogum and sodium hyaluronate in a light aqueous base to provide immediate and lasting hydration without a greasy residue. Both are compatible with intimate pH and safe for daily use.
