The expansion centers on the brand's proprietary LACTO-BVTC complex, a microbiome-focused formula designed to address pH imbalances, irritation, and odor. Since entering the U.S. market in 2023, the company has leveraged its success on platforms like Amazon and TikTok Shop to secure this retail partnership. By moving into physical shelves, the brand aims to capture shoppers who prefer immediate access to clinical-style intimate wellness solutions.
