Queen V: A Game Changer for Feminine Hygiene

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at NMSU chapter.

Since the beginning of time women have had periods and lady parts, so why is the talk about feminine hygiene still not openly talked about today? Well, there is a company who is taking steps to change that. Any girl knows that sometimes talking about anything related to their lady parts can sometimes be embarrassing and many of us may avoid talking about it even with our closest friends. Sometimes the subject can be hard, but the conversation around women’s health is one that should be open and accepting. Queen V’s mission is to destigmatize the word vagina, empower women to make educated choices about what they put in their body, and create a network of confident women that support each other. Queen V is transparent when it comes to what is put in their products. Queen V is a feminine wellness company that sells products specifically for women to help them enjoy, heal and maintain their V (let’s just say it: vagina!). Queen V has everything from probiotics, to bath bombs, to pH- balanced feminine wipes. Not only are these products seriously helpful, but everything comes in seriously aesthetically pleasing packaging (Is it just me who sometimes buys things just for the amazing packaging?). Did you know that vaginal pH levels are acidic and can be anywhere from 3.8 to 4.5 pH? Many girls may not even know that down there has a pH level simply because it is not talked about as often as it should be. It is important to know what a vaginal pH level usually is so that you can find the right soap product that does not interfere. All Queen V soap products have a healthy pH level to use everywhere around your body, even your lady parts. When it comes to creating a group of women that are confident and empowered, Queen V has nailed this on the head. With over 50,000 followers on Instagram, this is a company that has a following for a reason. Queen V is all about making women feel good about themselves inside and out. 

Out of everything Queen V has done in an effort to change talk about feminine wellness, the Queen V ambassador program is one thing that stands out. There are Queen VIPs or Queen V Brand Ambassadors across the United States that are representing Queen V at their college campuses and making efforts to educate women about their bodies. Being a Queen V ambassador also included putting on events that bring awareness to other woman’s issues such as breast cancer. I have been a Queen V ambassador for over a year now and I must say every month I learn something new. I have learned how to put on events that are geared toward women and I have been able to empower the women I love around me. Queen V is changing the game for feminine wellness while empowering and motivating women along the way.
