A delivery device for feminine health can include a feminine hygiene product including an absorbent substrate and a composition absorbed onto the absorbent substrate for placement against a vulva, inserted into a vagina, or both. The composition can include a continuous phase and a dispersed phase dispersed throughout the continuous phase forming a fluid suspension. The continuous phase can include a solvent of one or more essential oils, one or more lubricants, or a combination thereof. The continuous phase can include one or more solutes dissolved in the solvent including one or more fat-soluble vitamins. The dispersed phase can include a pH-balancing agent, a dietary mineral, an absorbent, one or more water-soluble vitamins, or a combination thereof. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A composition for feminine health, comprising: a continuous phase including: a solvent of one or more essential oils, one or more lubricants, or a combination thereof;
