No.
I used this as directed to wash my cup but got an infection. Yeah, I rinsed the soap off my cup before inserting. Maybe it was a coincidence that this happened the exact day I used this product, but I'm wary of trying again next month. I'm switching to peroxide soaks instead. Lucky me, I now have a huge, unreturnable bottle of expensive product that I don't feel safe using! And yeah, it's also marketed as a face and body wash, so I guess that's how I'll be using it, but I'm not thrilled about it. It was such a waste of money. I already have plenty of "luxurious" soaps and cleansers that work well for me and cost less than this wash. Besides that, there's something you should know if you do use this product to clean your cup! DivaWash is explicitly marketed as being safe for silicone due to not being oil-based, but orange oil is listed as an ingredient in this soap regardless. That's a) potentially shortening the lifespan of your silicone cup, and b) questionable at best in terms of vaginal health. (The label does say in bold "for external use only," but it also makes a lot of claims about being ph balanced and safe to use on insertables. In my case, even after rinsing well there was something about the soap that caused me to react to it.) I'm disappointed to see such dishonest marketing, perhaps even intentionally in order to force people to replace their reusable products more often.
