Baby powder feels good when you get a wax, but it can cause problems so please be conscientious if it is part of your waxing routine.

  1. When you use powder after a wax, it can clog the pores that are open and exposed and can increase your risk of getting ingrown hairs.
  2. If a body part is extremely sweaty, I may use a thin dusting of baby powder on the skin prior to applying the wax, but then I spend extra time cleaning the skin afterwards to ensure their is no powder residue on the skin.
  3. For some women, powder near the hoo-ha can cause yeast infections – especially in women who have PH imbalances or post-menopausal women who are already sitting on the Mohave Desert.
  4. There are numerous studies that have found a correlation between talcum powder on the vulva and ovarian cancer. Currently Johnson & Johnson have over 3,000 lawsuits pending. I love the hoo-ha and would hate to be responsible for anything but happiness down there.
