If you suffer from dick cheese - or smegma as it's also known - you experience a build-up of dead skin cells, sebum, sweat and bacteria in the skin folds in the genital area. Dick cheese can affect both men and women, and although the appearance of dick cheese is simply the result of a normal physiological process, you probably want to do something about it.

Your sebaceous glands need to produce sebum to keep your skin moisturised and protected, but if dead skin cells and sweat accumulate in the sebum, it can result in the formation of dick cheese.

With good, routine intimate hygiene, you can overcome the problem.

How do you get rid of dick cheese?

To reduce and prevent dick cheese in your intimate area, it is important that you clean excess sebum, dirt and sweat from your intimate area daily.

Therefore, wash every day with intimate soap. Apply an appropriate amount to the intimate area and massage gently - but thoroughly - into the skin. Pay particular attention where you are prone to neck chewing. Rinse off the soap thoroughly when you're done.

You should only wash with soap and water once a day, otherwise you risk drying out your skin. This will only lead to an increased production of sebum, which can result in more dick cheese. Therefore, wash once a day.

If you need to cleanse the intimate area - for example, if there is an unwanted odour - you can use the wet wipes instead. Take an intimate wet wipe out of the pack, wipe the intimate area and throw the used wipe in the rubbish bin. Make sure to close the packet tightly again so that the remaining wet wipes don't dry out.

What is dick cheese, and how does it come about?

"Dick cheese" is an informal term for smegma. Smegma is the name of the natural substance that forms under the foreskin in men and around the clitoris and labia minora in women.

Dick cheese consists of dead skin cells, sebum, sweat, etc. that have accumulated to form a whitish or yellowish substance in the intimate area.

It is quite normal to develop dick cheese in the intimate area, as sebum production is both a natural and important process in the skin. However, overproduction as well as accumulated dead skin cells and sweat can lead to dick cheese, which fortunately can be removed and prevented with good cleansing intimate products.

Is dick cheese dangerous or unhealthy?

Smegma is neither dangerous nor unhealthy. However, dick cheese can lead to intimate discomfort such as unwanted odour, itching or other irritation. You can avoid this by removing dick cheese regularly using good intimate hygiene products.

Daily washing with intimate soap helps reduce the build-up of dick cheese while maintaining a naturally balanced intimate area.

In addition to intimate soap, the package also contains wet wipes for intimate care of dick cheese.

The story of healing tea trees dates back thousands of years and it originates from the Aboriginal people of Australia. Their legends describe lakes surrounded by tea trees. Falling leaves and twigs from the tea trees leached their essential oils into the water and turned the lakes into antiseptic baths. The lolacl Aborigines used these natural, healing spas to treat a number of conditions, such as skin infection, burns, cuts and insect bites.

The healing benefits of tea trees were not officially registred until 1923. However, the local Aboriginal tribe, Bundjalung, had long understood the protective and healing powers of tea trees and used their crushed leaves to treat various wounds and skin infections. They named the land with tea trees “Healing Ground”.

The products from Australian Bodycare contain natural, antiseptic Tea Tree Oil (Melaleuca Alternifolia). Tea Tree Oil has been known and used by Australian Aborigines for centuries because of its powerful antiseptic effects. Tea Tree Oil has been added to all Australian Bodycare Tea Tree Oil products in different concentrations, depending on which skin problem the products is developed to combat and where on the body it is to be used. Our product series is tailored for the entire family: It prevents and treats the most common skin problems—all while staying gentle on the skin.
