About the Science

You tried something. It didn't work. Your conditions keep coming back. Most products for this part of the body were built to get you through the next few hours — not to address what's happening to the tissue underneath. Novel was built to do both.

Three beliefs. Every product we build.

01

Your intimate skin deserves the same rigor as any other. The skin in and around the anorectal and perineal area is among the most sensitive in the body — and the most neglected in product development. We hold everything we make to the standard this tissue deserves.

02

Relief without recovery isn't enough. If a product interrupts your discomfort and then wears off, it hasn't solved anything. Novel products are designed to work during a flare and in between.

03

Effective and safe are not in conflict. You shouldn't have to choose between a product that works and one you trust. That's a false choice this category has accepted for too long. We don't accept it.

Built for the hardest use case.

We design for the woman who is pregnant or postpartum, in the middle of a flare, navigating perimenopausal skin changes, or managing something chronic. If it works for her, it works for everyone. She is our bar.
