Let's Get Clinical
Powered by herbs™ and science
From The Honey Pot’s inception, we’ve always been committed to ingredients and formulations that are efficacious and safe. Vaginas deserve wellness like the rest of our bodies, so we decided to ground our commitment in science-backed research.
What “Clinically Tested” Means to Us
We consulted with a variety of medical professionals and other experts, who tested and evaluated our products over periods of time, using real humans and real feedback. They tested for…
- Tolerability
- Irritation
- Vaginal pH Ranges
- Acceptability + Performance
With this science-backed approach, our products have been clinically tested and endorsed by trusted medical advisors and other experts to be safe for even the most sensitive skin.
— THE HONEY POT TEAM
Clinically Tested & Honeypot Approved
Results speak for themselves, but third-party verification speaks the loudest. We’ve commissioned third-party laboratories that are supervised by gynecologists, dermatologists and other experts to put our products to the test in clinical trials.

ROLE OF THE TEST
We relied on something called a Human Repeat Insult Patch Test, which is a six-week clinical testing method that determines whether or not the product causes irritation, sensitivity, or any kind of allergic reaction to the skin.
