Thank you for watching! My numbering in the video got a little mixed up because I changed what I felt has truly helped me the most, so bear with me. 🤍 also, I hope EVERYONE reading this stays safe during this time. Take this time of solitude to go toward your dreams at full force!
@@carsoncrouch7895 I used to drink a lot of that, but I get acid reflux from it now, so I have to dilute it to about 5% tops, with water, and I add a little Stevia. I do chug it, though. I have to, or it would spoil!
No hate, I loved your video. Just wanted to say that the reason why the washcloth thing could cause a problem is that you need be wiping always from front to behind, otherwise the bacteria from the rear section of our body can get in the urethra, and cause the UTI. I was explained this by my doctor and thought I would share.
That after using the restroom, she’s referring to like in the bathtub after washing everything really good it’s a extra cleaning precaution. My gynecologist actually really approves of this so long as you wash yourself really well first.
@@InsomniOwl_ go for it when you’re comfortable, you’re definitely going to be nervous. Find some one or a place with good reviews & Express your concern!
@@InsomniOwl_ or you could order a mini wax pot and some hard wax, that’s what I do way cheaper! It’s easy if you can handle the pain and force yourself to rip it lmao. Just exfoliate before hand, put some baby powder on and remember to apply and rip *against* the way the hairs grow, and hold the skin down the opposite way from the direction your ripping (you can bruise easily if you don’t hold the skin down) and then apply a tiny bit of aloe Vera after to ease the sting ❤️❤️❤️
@@InsomniOwl_ just do it sis they’ve seen so many vags that it doesn’t even phase them. Also ppl go on this periods and everything I was definitely shy at first but now I go in with ease
I really appreciate you for wanting to help other women out with these issues and being so open/honest. As a big girl, this video was extremely helpful. Thank you so much girl.❤️❤️ Love your vids and vibe/energy!
Everyone is so different when I first got with my fiancé I always used to shave my pum pum and girlllll omg spots boils ingrown hair blackheads it was crazy (even with new razors the lot) my vagina doesn’t act well at all to be shaven so my partner has made me feel super confident with a Bush in the bedroom ✌🏼
Try Nair, but just do a test area first to check for irritation. My friend uses it and it wipes right off work a damp cloth. I just can't take the smell lol
@@kiya467 Yupper, I use the nair also. Get one for coarse hair so you don't have to leave on too long. I have gotten a Nair burn before. I like using the one with seaweed that is also an exfoliating cream and prevents stubble from coming back too fast. Cheers to the vag 🥰
Thank you for saying it for the big girls in the back! Like you, I had to go through years of embarrassing moments and didnt have anyone else around to instruct. No one told me about ph balanced feminine sprays or body powders. Not only do we need to worry about general hygiene, some of us need to learn to clean our crevices/rolls; which can also collect bacteria. If possible, maybe do a video of the products you use? Again thank you for stepping up!
I had a yeast infection that would not go away. I used at least 5 treatments from the drug store. Boric acid suppositories worked so fast! I have the same brand and I only use boric acid now!
Oh wow! I’ve had a yeast infection for 8 years. I have always had impeccable hygiene. I’ve tried everything. I’ve been on yeast infection treatment packs daily since then. I have to try it.
@@heidiho5179 It could be your soap. Use all natural Castile soap for washing your bottom. Bubble baths are a major no. If you do, only once a month using Castile soap, baking soda, and AC vinegar.

Baby Shampoo+Wash (like dove baby bars) has worked SO well for cleaning down there ( OBVIOUSLY DON'T USE INTERNALLY); but it is great for sensitive areas and does a great job of cleaning.
This may seem a little graphic but we are all grown adults here trying to help each other. This technic my cousin showed me when we were little kids and that was 36 years ago and I still do it to this day. Trust me it is life changing!!! She would always come out the bathroom in a flash after a bowel movement and was wondering what always took me so long because she wanted to get back to playing outside. Like can you give me time to wipe myself. She's like it shouldn't take that long. I'll skip the rest of the conversation to get to the point. She told me to hold each side of my booty cheeks an spread them not to wide but enough so my t*rd falls straight into the toilet and not TOUCH MY CHEEKS AT ALL!!!! 🌈🌈. tried it the next time. I was out the bathroom in a flash 😄 and super clean. Very little residue just on my butt hole instead of a TON smeared all between my cheeks which had me wiping forever. As I became an adult and by butt is bigger I just gently put each side of my cheek on the toilet seat and it's a CLEAN DROP!!!! Very MINIMAL CLEAN UP!!!! Trust me it's a GAME CHANGER!!! 💯
I feel this. A lot of it has to do with what we eat and how often we sweat. Now at my heaviest I sweat A LOT more and a lot faster than when I was 40lbs lighter. I get hotter too as opposed to always needing a sweater when I was thinner.
I absolutely love that you put out this video, very much needed for females to understand proper hygiene. I work with the public and boy are there many females as well as male that dont know how to take care and are so smelly not only large people face issues like this but all kind of body types I have encounter are not using proper methods. When growing up I didn't have anyone tell me any hacks, instructions or life lessons of hygiene, instead I use my instincts and I bought products that work well for me and also doing research and trying out what works best for you. We are all pretty much gifted with internet so there's no excuse to not research and look for information as well as talking to your doctor for recommendations. People need to open up. Thank you Stella for putting the word out there. I've been saying this for years when I have girl talks and it amazes me how much people just don't care.
I do most of these. It’s so funny how you said you do a quick clean up before sex to show big girls don’t smell because I do the same thing. When I was 21 I started dating this guy and we were sitting in the car talking and he says “ you know, I really like you. I like how you carry yourself. You’re a bigger girl and you don’t have a smell”. I didn’t know what to say because I didn’t know how to take it.
I have been using lume deodorant cream between my legs and it really works. I actually gained weight and don't have air in my car so I get really musty close to my bum and in the crevices. I was using everything and then I gave lume a try. Change my life. I don't feel embarrassed after sex and go another round without that musty smell. Lume is good and I am a heavy sweater so I'm going to keep using it. I still get a little musty as I should when I am really active. Also, yes! Like you said, I started washing my vagina with water instead of all the different soaps I was using. I still wash under my belly and the thigh areas with soap but the vagaga, water only. A handheld showerhead is a fat girl's dream. Im able to wash my bum better but I also have a hand brush. I'm now using cotton pads to help catch sweat because if you're big, you are going to sweat in areas more where other women might not. Like you, im very self conscious and always pay attention to my odors. I used to use Ammens powder but stopped after the whole cancer scare with Johnsons. I do still use it on the pads. I haven't tried shaving yet. I did try a vaginal spray but it didn't do anything for me. Thanks for having those open discussion.
What lume scent did you buy? I just saw a video about this product and really interested in it but, have extremely sensitive skin and VERY extremely sensitive skin esp. down there..
@@Rascalanne98 i started using lavender since the unscented wasn't available. Im using warm vanilla now. The scents are faint so they won't overwhelm the deodorant and sweat.
Probiotics is amazing it really helps with smell and overall balance and lots of water to flush your system but before you decide to self treat go to your Gyno first because if you do have BV you need to get that treated medically then proceed with all the hacks to prevent it from coming back
Actually if you have BV it's best to treat naturally. All your OB is going to do is prescribe antibiotics which kill ALL of your bacteria and often make the problem worse for most women once you go off the antibiotics.
Thanks for the hygiene tips.A healthy diet is important,relaxing exercises to relieve stress.The less stress,the less sweating.Wearing 100% cotton underwear,washing them in hot water & non-fragrant detergent changing underwear,when damp & dirty & showering,or freshening up,2 times,daily.Keep sharing good tips.
If us ladies get reoccurring thrush or itchiness down there it may be caused by antibiotics, the pill or too much sugar in your foods/drinks, try cutting down on sweet stuff and you can get a tablet re the doctors/pharmacy to re balance your gut therefore removing the issue, good luck girls xo
Hey Stella, I been literally watching a vast majority of your videos (even before I became a sub) and you really put on for us big girl's, I also have a apple body shape as well and you have given me so much inspiration... Please continue to make your videos because females like me need to see them.... peace love and blessings 🌻💖🔮🥰
For the UTI, it depends on which species of infection as to which natural remedies will help. If it’s e. Coli, cranberry capsules, bilberry capsules, and a really good probiotic, like bio-k will help. If the UTI species is e. faeclis, ginger capsules with food or ginger tea can help. Sanji Vani vati is an Ayurvedic tablet which helped me with my digestion, my bladder, and my vagina. My urologist recommended taking a vitamin e supplement. I use cetaphil creamy cleanser instead of a vaginal wash because many of those say it is fragrance free, but if you turn it around to read the ingredients it may have fragrance listed.
Thank you so much for sharing. This subject for many of us women can be very embarrassing. Utmost respect to you for being able to speak so openly about this. This video was extremely helpful to me as I have always had big oder issues in that private area. Thank you
I’ve gained so much weight! I’m the biggest I’ve ever been actually. I kept getting bv and yeast infections and had feeling it was because of the weight but wasn’t sure. I actually had 3 miscarriages (20w, 16w 20w) in 2 years so I’ve gained a lot of weight being pregnant. I’m actually happy I stumbled on this video. I as looking for spanx reviews and found u and subbed
I'm not a bigger girl, but avoiding soaps down there and eating yogurt a few times a week keeps things good down there 👍 as well as avoiding wearing clothes that dont breath
Sis ! When buying cranberry juice make sure its 100% cranberry juice it should have nothing else in it and I'm just gunna let you know now it is very bitter but if you would like it to be a little sweeter I recommend using raw organic manuka honey or any honey that is 100% organic , or agave syrup (easier to stir in )
I can’t use regular soap 🧼 it irritates me immediately. Non- scented all the way. My GYN told me what to use and to stay away from summers eve. Use only white rags, or use your hands and water. I currently have that boric acid, and using the sensitive honeypot feminine wash. I can’t use feminine deodorant spray down there, but a friend taught me that I can spray that on my body, especially under my boobs and it keeps me dry and the sweat away.
Summers eve is the W O R S T. It literally smells terrible and even their "pH balanced" formulas are awful and will made me breakout. Definitely agree, just talk to OB/GYN and stay scent-free!
Hack 5👌 Wipe and wipe yourself. When ever I see people who don't wipe. V spray? I have not tried that but it is worth having at home😍 You are as plain as the air. I have learned so much from you today 🙏😍
I bought a bottle of 100% boric acid powder and some pill capsules you can open and fill with powder. My life saver! I didn't like some of the boric acid suppositories on the market because it seems like there was always another ingredient included in the mix that didn't work well for me.
Beautiful plus size queen. I’ve been overweight plus plus for 18 years the last few years have been horrible smell wise. I take a shower daily sometimes two and nothing is keeping me fresh ugh it’s frustrating! Also when my diet isn’t the best I can tell my odor changes so much all over. I’m trying to go more natural in my products and plan to go completely hairless again. That you are right it helps a lot
Try using apple cider vinegar , you kno how you put ur conditioner in and let it sit before washing it off, basically do the same thing , water down some ACV , put it on ur body let it sit alil you can shave ur legs or something in between time , then rinse it all off and take your regular shower with ur soaps , it works , it lowers how fast bacteria grows
Omg! I have not been washing my body meaning my Pandora box. I about a year ago while on my period, I had slept with the tampon overnight. It was so irritating, so the hypochondriac in my went to my Gynecologists'. He suggested that I no longer wash my body with feminine hygiene products. It was the best thing that I could have ever done. I realize that the soaps are all chemicals that effect your PH Balance. I'm so loving my Pandora box.
Good advise from all the ladies here. I personally stopped using feminine wash because iy irritated me more so now I use baby wash it is so gentle no irritation at all. I also as an older woman 44 it gets dry more often so I use coconut oil. I will try the Boric life and the cranberry pills I read in another comment. Thanks from one big girl to another.
This video was very well needed! I agree that we need to change that “big girls stink” narrative because that is not true for everyone! One thing that I personally do is peroxide douching as needed. Usually once or twice a month and I never have a smell.
@@jaylanicole9400 I take a regular douche bottle and rinse it out then I put 3 parts warm (not hot, warm) water and 1 part peroxide. Shake it. & I douche in the shower, after I'm done showering.
Cranberry pills girrrrrl! I'm a Veterinarian and learned to help female dogs with chronic infections by prescribing cranberry pills. Started taking quality cranberry pills myself and trust and believe that they have completely changed my life. Everything down there has improved. ❤️ So, yay cranberry supplements! 💯🌹
My doctor prescribes me nastatin ( spelling may be wrong) it prevents sweat and bacteria in all crevices! I sweat horribly ( even when I was skinny) and always had boils and odor NOT anymore!!
such a great & informative video!! It took me a while to find my groove with maintaining my hygiene down there, like figuring out what worked for me & didn't work, and a few of the things you mentioned I also incorporate, such as using a specific wash and using a specific deodorant for down there (The deodorant & wash alone are complete game changers!!!). I also notice that I smell & feel fresher when I'm clean shaven, but the itchiness after shaving discourages me from doing it... how do you handle/prevent the post-shaving itchiness? Also, I would love if you could do a video on having sex as a big girl. I'm a virgin, so I have no experience in this department and I don't plan to for a while, but it is something that worries me when that time comes. I love how you touched on freshening up prior, so I was wondering if you could provide more tips & insight on the subject in terms of confidence/self-consciousness & your experiences as being sexually active as a big girl?
You’re so beautiful Stella. 😍 And yes I agree with number 2. I have to get waxed every month. I feel so much cleaner and fresh that way. I’m a pear with very large thighs so waxing is a must. Hair just makes things feel so much more gross. 🥴
Yasss!! That's like one of my biggest hacks! I just started waxing about 6 months ago and it has made such a difference!!! I do a full Brazilian wax and it works no smell I still get sweaty but I don't smell like I did with hair. 🙂
Thank you so much for posting this! These are some issues I struggle with I've honestly always thought it just came with being fat. My mom didn't know this so I never knew. I really appreciate you giving us your advice and empathizing with the struggles of being a big girl. Also, what's the name of the vaginal spray/deodorant you mentioned? My apologies if I misheard or didn't see it.
I’ve had issues after my 2nd child. First time ever getting a bv infection. Boric acid suppositories really work. I use one after each period completely ends now.
I really appreciate you adressing all these things. I took a look at Boric life, not available in The Netherlands for as far as I can see but I'll buy it on Ebay. I'm very curious to see what the result is. I hoped in a way that you had some tips for girl getting infections from hair that is growing into the skin but I guess you don't have that problem. A scrub, sharp raisor, shavingcream, warm water it doesn't prevent it in my case. But for the rest I would like to say thanks for opening up about such a private thing. Great job. You look stunning.
Just trim closely instead of shaving everything bare if you get ingrown hairs, breakouts, rashes, etc. Any grown man will never complain about it being trimmed shortly not shaved completely bare..
I'm going to give you girls a game changer..."Baking Soda"...Sprinkled in your bath....I'm telling you it maintains your PH....Do not use soap & you don't need to rinse it off....No odor, no yeast, no itchiness,...Life is good!
Hey there beautiful Stella can you tell us what brand or kind of wash and spray you use I would really like to know as someone that also has since and has had some problems in the past..
TheCacklingMoon I use fold napkins that I get from my medical supply catalog. They are called Ultrasorbs dry sheets. They work for my belly and under my breasts when I am particularly sweaty.
I use clinical strength deodorant and put it on every few days, it’s fantastic at stopping the wet rashes and itch. I’ve used Mitchum and Rexona but I’m in Australia so I’m not sure what brands others have, but, I think it must be clinical strength 💕
Use your deodorant under your belly roll and breast to prevent the rash. The rash is usually skin yeast. Diaper rash ointment will usually get rid of it quickly.
Do not use Monistat 1 day. I literally almost died. $12 diflucan prescription, it's one tiny pill, YI all gone. Antibiotics get me too, the only time I've ever got one was from them. Love the boric acid, have them use 2 times a week. Freshy fresh

Can you list the names/brands that you use? For the spray and feminine wash, thanks.
I did use V wash only when I am in that time of the month 😆
Stella Williams I had NO CLUE plus size needed to do anything different or extra... 😳 why dammit just why
Can you link us to the spray you talked about please?
I love how you said “fat” instead of big or plus size. Fat isn’t a bad word and we need to stop making it seem like it is❤️
yes yes yes!! society has told us that fat is almost the antonym for beautiful. but big is beautiful. fat is beautiful!! we are all beautiful!!
Have you thought about cranberry pills instead of the juice? It packs more of a punch without the sugar and stuff!
I drink organic non sweetened cranberry juice for this reason!
@@carsoncrouch7895 I used to drink a lot of that, but I get acid reflux from it now, so I have to dilute it to about 5% tops, with water, and I add a little Stevia. I do chug it, though. I have to, or it would spoil!

you rinse after everytime you use the bathroom you can avoid alot of this and dry with toilet paper.

I use cetaphil creamy cleanser instead of a vaginal wash because many of those say it is fragrance free, but if you turn it around to read the ingredients it may have fragrance listed.
Thank you so much for sharing. This subject for many of us women can be very embarrassing. Utmost respect to you for being able to speak so openly about this. This video was extremely helpful to me as I have always had big oder issues in that private area. Thank you
I’ve gained so much weight! I’m the biggest I’ve ever been actually. I kept getting bv and yeast infections and had feeling it was because of the weight but wasn’t sure. I actually had 3 miscarriages (20w, 16w 20w) in 2 years so I’ve gained a lot of weight being pregnant.
I’m actually happy I stumbled on this video. I as looking for spanx reviews and found u and subbed
Boric acid is life changing. I’m super sensitive to getting BV and using the suppositories prophylactically keeps everything in check
How often do you use them
I get BV all the time . The boric acid pills work sometimes not all
The time for me 😫
I'm not a bigger girl, but avoiding soaps down there and eating yogurt a few times a week keeps things good down there 👍 as well as avoiding wearing clothes that dont breath
Girl if she's like me, I wear a girdle everyday at work. Im not going to flop around so sometimes tightness is unavoidable.
I get this was in partnership with Nutrablast but can you do another vid with actual products like the wash, spray etc ? Thanks
Apple Cidar Vinager as well
In the tub yes ma'am !!!
What do you do with it?
@@Lisa-iw5yx you put like 2 or 3 cap fulls in your tub and jus soak in it like a regular bath
@@NeNe-uy2dj does it fix your PH balance?
@@Lisa-iw5yx it has antimicrobial properties that helps with that yes ma'am !
Stella ive always used the flossing technique. It has served me well for years. Thanks for sharing with others
I agree the hair collects bacteria, since I'm very prone to ingrown hairs i can only do trimming.
Yes me too I get really bad sores from ingrown hairs
I LOVE YOU!! I adore everything you post! I love how open and honest you are! Very very helpful girl ♥️ thank you Stella!
Sis ! When buying cranberry juice make sure its 100% cranberry juice it should have nothing else in it and I'm just gunna let you know now it is very bitter but if you would like it to be a little sweeter I recommend using raw organic manuka honey or any honey that is 100% organic , or agave syrup (easier to stir in )
I can’t use regular soap 🧼 it irritates me immediately. Non- scented all the way. My GYN told me what to use and to stay away from summers eve. Use only white rags, or use your hands and water. I currently have that boric acid, and using the sensitive honeypot feminine wash. I can’t use feminine deodorant spray down there, but a friend taught me that I can spray that on my body, especially under my boobs and it keeps me dry and the sweat away.
Summers eve is the W O R S T. It literally smells terrible and even their "pH balanced" formulas are awful and will made me breakout. Definitely agree, just talk to OB/GYN and stay scent-free!
Hack 5👌
Wipe and wipe yourself. When ever I see people who don't wipe.
V spray? I have not tried that but it is worth having at home😍
You are as plain as the air. I have learned so much from you today 🙏😍
I bought a bottle of 100% boric acid powder and some pill capsules you can open and fill with powder. My life saver! I didn't like some of the boric acid suppositories on the market because it seems like there was always another ingredient included in the mix that didn't work well for me.
Thank you for this video, very real and informative appreciate you!!
Girl you are Rockin that blonde hair! Beautiful ❤️ 🔥
that hack for keeping yourself clean with the tool I love mine finially feel confident again. love your Advice
addicted to ur vds honestly
Beautiful plus size queen. I’ve been overweight plus plus for 18 years the last few years have been horrible smell wise. I take a shower daily sometimes two and nothing is keeping me fresh ugh it’s frustrating! Also when my diet isn’t the best I can tell my odor changes so much all over. I’m trying to go more natural in my products and plan to go completely hairless again. That you are right it helps a lot
One thing that has helped me more than anything is showering twice a day and not eating junk or coffee when I am having stronger odor.
Its ur diet!!
Try using apple cider vinegar , you kno how you put ur conditioner in and let it sit before washing it off, basically do the same thing , water down some ACV , put it on ur body let it sit alil you can shave ur legs or something in between time , then rinse it all off and take your regular shower with ur soaps , it works , it lowers how fast bacteria grows
I loved your tip on how to floss yourself down there. I also get a Brazilian sugaring every month.
Omg! I have not been washing my body meaning my Pandora box. I about a year ago while on my period, I had slept with the tampon overnight. It was so irritating, so the hypochondriac in my went to my Gynecologists'. He suggested that I no longer wash my body with feminine hygiene products. It was the best thing that I could have ever done. I realize that the soaps are all chemicals that effect your PH Balance. I'm so loving my Pandora box.
This is the video so many women need to see.
Good advise from all the ladies here. I personally stopped using feminine wash because iy irritated me more so now I use baby wash it is so gentle no irritation at all. I also as an older woman 44 it gets dry more often so I use coconut oil. I will try the Boric life and the cranberry pills I read in another comment. Thanks from one big girl to another.
Def trying the suppositories!!
This is a great video, Sis, super informative and the honesty is liberating.
This video was very well needed! I agree that we need to change that “big girls stink” narrative because that is not true for everyone! One thing that I personally do is peroxide douching as needed. Usually once or twice a month and I never have a smell.
Never heard of that. How do you do it?
@@jaylanicole9400 I take a regular douche bottle and rinse it out then I put 3 parts warm (not hot, warm) water and 1 part peroxide. Shake it. & I douche in the shower, after I'm done showering.
Cranberry pills girrrrrl! I'm a Veterinarian and learned to help female dogs with chronic infections by prescribing cranberry pills. Started taking quality cranberry pills myself and trust and believe that they have completely changed my life. Everything down there has improved. ❤️ So, yay cranberry supplements! 💯🌹
Biggest advice: wash with water after using the toilet. Number 1 and 2. It cleans way better than with a paper towel and it’s less irritating.
I don't think having some hair down town is going to hurt and i get what youre saying. Im shaped like you. So ty for the info youre amazing
I love this, thank you for making this. I didn’t even know there were sprays like that!
My doctor prescribes me nastatin ( spelling may be wrong) it prevents sweat and bacteria in all crevices! I sweat horribly ( even when I was skinny) and always had boils and odor NOT anymore!!
such a great & informative video!! It took me a while to find my groove with maintaining my hygiene down there, like figuring out what worked for me & didn't work, and a few of the things you mentioned I also incorporate, such as using a specific wash and using a specific deodorant for down there (The deodorant & wash alone are complete game changers!!!). I also notice that I smell & feel fresher when I'm clean shaven, but the itchiness after shaving discourages me from doing it... how do you handle/prevent the post-shaving itchiness? Also, I would love if you could do a video on having sex as a big girl. I'm a virgin, so I have no experience in this department and I don't plan to for a while, but it is something that worries me when that time comes. I love how you touched on freshening up prior, so I was wondering if you could provide more tips & insight on the subject in terms of confidence/self-consciousness & your experiences as being sexually active as a big girl?
Many of these tips also apply to smaller girls 😉
I just adore you! I really need that hair as well 😍
I appreciate you making this video more than you know! Thank you.
Thanks girl! You’re amazing! I love all of your videos
You’re so beautiful Stella. 😍 And yes I agree with number 2. I have to get waxed every month. I feel so much cleaner and fresh that way. I’m a pear with very large thighs so waxing is a must. Hair just makes things feel so much more gross. 🥴
Yasss!! That's like one of my biggest hacks! I just started waxing about 6 months ago and it has made such a difference!!! I do a full Brazilian wax and it works no smell I still get sweaty but I don't smell like I did with hair. 🙂
I'm super body shy but I really want to wax. Any tips??
You are so pretty I binge all your videos 😍😍❤
Really great video! Just found your channel and I'm super impressed. Subscribing right now! Much love to you ❤️😘❤️
Thank you so much for posting this! These are some issues I struggle with I've honestly always thought it just came with being fat. My mom didn't know this so I never knew. I really appreciate you giving us your advice and empathizing with the struggles of being a big girl. Also, what's the name of the vaginal spray/deodorant you mentioned? My apologies if I misheard or didn't see it.
I loooove this makeup look!
I’ve had issues after my 2nd child. First time ever getting a bv infection. Boric acid suppositories really work. I use one after each period completely ends now.
Thanks for the boric acid tip! I will be trying it. Im 310 lbs and always try to take good care of myself but it helps to learn new things.
I really appreciate you adressing all these things. I took a look at Boric life, not available in The Netherlands for as far as I can see but I'll buy it on Ebay. I'm very curious to see what the result is. I hoped in a way that you had some tips for girl getting infections from hair that is growing into the skin but I guess you don't have that problem. A scrub, sharp raisor, shavingcream, warm water it doesn't prevent it in my case. But for the rest I would like to say thanks for opening up about such a private thing. Great job. You look stunning.
Just trim closely instead of shaving everything bare if you get ingrown hairs, breakouts, rashes, etc. Any grown man will never complain about it being trimmed shortly not shaved completely bare..
I'm definitely subbing to you
Thank you for this info, never heard of boric acid suppositories
thank you for sharing. I know a lot of us didn't get any good info from. Mom. so we all need to listen to others to learn. thank you
THANK YOI STELLA 💙💙 definitely trying all these hacks
Love you and your personality. I appreciate your honesty and advice in this video
I'm going to give you girls a game changer..."Baking Soda"...Sprinkled in your bath....I'm telling you it maintains your PH....Do not use soap & you don't need to rinse it off....No odor, no yeast, no itchiness,...Life is good!
Could you please let me know the name of the spray you said kept you dry. For your personal hygiene. Thank you.
Came to ask the same question...
Hey there beautiful Stella can you tell us what brand or kind of wash and spray you use I would really like to know as someone that also has since and has had some problems in the past..
Lady E after I had my yeast infection I started using vagisil it helps me with staying fresh
@@jenniferjohn8605 thank you Jennifer. I appreciate it.
Organic cranberry juice isn’t sweet... AT ALL. Pure cranberry juice w/ no added sugar is super bitter 😣
marleywithatwist yes! Organic cranberry juice and water will remove any odor
I'd say tart not bitter
I take it like a shot lol
Does it sweeten if you add lemon\lime?
You can put deodorant under your fat rolls to help with staying dry and odor
Here early for the first time love you girl ❤️
What was the treatment recommended by your doctor.
Honey pot 🍯! I'm very! Sensitive and can use it all, game changer for me for sure!!
Thank u so much for being real nd give real tips for big girls
Omg I was just on YT yesterday searching for a more up to date ph balancing video thanks much needed ❤️
I have an Apple, and from time to time I will get a rash under my belly roll. Does anybody else struggle with this? What do you do to help?
TheCacklingMoon I use fold napkins that I get from my medical supply catalog. They are called Ultrasorbs dry sheets. They work for my belly and under my breasts when I am particularly sweaty.
I use clinical strength deodorant and put it on every few days, it’s fantastic at stopping the wet rashes and itch. I’ve used Mitchum and Rexona but I’m in Australia so I’m not sure what brands others have, but, I think it must be clinical strength 💕
Use your deodorant under your belly roll and breast to prevent the rash. The rash is usually skin yeast. Diaper rash ointment will usually get rid of it quickly.
Once rash occurs: Dial antibacterial soap and monistat cream. After just use aluminum free deodorant or powder
Raye De La Sol is deodorant okay I’m scared to use it under my breast I’m using powder but it only helps for a little while
Thanks for the great tips😊
Thank you for caring enough to share so thoughtfully ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I use that same boric acid. Game changer
No one is going to mention how awesome Lemisol wash is? Just me?
I use it it's very cooling..
A bidet is good to help with the wiping problem as well. 😊 Thank you for the vid!
My hair down there irritates my skin and makes me itch.
Do not use Monistat 1 day. I literally almost died. $12 diflucan prescription, it's one tiny pill, YI all gone. Antibiotics get me too, the only time I've ever got one was from them. Love the boric acid, have them use 2 times a week. Freshy fresh
