IS THE USE OF ESSENTIAL OILS IN UNDERWEAR SAFE... ESPECIALLY SINCE ESSENTIAL OILS ARE KNOWN TO ABSORB INTO THE SKIN?

All of our scents are free of chemicals and known carcinogens, making them safe for your skin (unless you are allergic to essential oils, of course!). Effleure underwear undergoes a lengthy infusion process, which means the essential oils will not leak onto your skin.

ARE THE ESSENTIAL OILS A SYNTHETIC BLEND OR THERAPEUTIC GRADE?

The essential oils are developed from natural oils and are therapeutic grade. Also, all of the ingredients used are R.E.A.C.H. approved for dermal contact. R.E.A.C.H. addresses the production and use of chemical substances, and their potential impacts on both human health and the environment.



FROM WHERE ARE THE ESSENTIAL OILS SOURCED?

All of the essential oils we use are sourced from the United States and are extracted through a patented process. The oils are therapeutic grade and approved for dermal contact.

ARE THE ESSENTIAL OILS DILUTED?

Yes. The essential oils are first diluted, and then infused into the fabric. They are not topical, so they will not be directly applied to the vaginal area.

WHAT DOES THE SCENT APPLICATION PROCESS LOOK LIKE?

The scent application process is protected as patented technology and intellectual property of Durascent (™). Thus, we cannot share the exact steps. However, what we can tell you is that this same scent application process has been used in textiles for many years and has not caused any notable side effects or skin irritations. The essential oils are released into the fabric, washed and dried after the application process, and adhere to the fabric through multiple washes.

HOW SHOULD I WASH, DRY AND CARE FOR MY UNDERWEAR?

For the most effective scent retention, the product should be hand-washed in lukewarm water with unscented soap or detergent and left to air dry or tumble dry without heat. Store the underwear in its individual scented box to reinforce the scent. With proper care, each pair’s scent should last for a while.
