Best chub rub cream/stick?

Hiya! My thighs rub together (shock horror 😱) and they get quite sore in the summer. So I usually wear Snag’s chub rub shorts with dresses. They are very breathable and comfortable which I like but they are quite ‘grippy’ on fabric and when I go abroad this august I’d like to try a chub rub cream or stick instead.

I’m willing to pay for a really good quality one.

Alternatively, chub rub shorts that are in a natural, breathable fabric but more silky would be nice, if anyone knows of a pair like this?

Me and my zero thigh gap thank you.

I do like body glide but I disagree that it lasts forever, I get through the stick in a few months in summer. Maybe I’m over applying?!

Second vote for Big Bloomers over Snag shorts, much cooler and more breathable.

I use Smol stick deodorant on my inner thighs and no chub rub!

Ok so body glide was really tacky on me and increased the grip/friction. Do I have weird skin??

Lanacaine is the best I’ve tried so far, definitely feels dry to touch, more like a talc finish I guess

@Fluffyflipflop you are an alien, it's the only possible explanation Wink

I found it just made a smooth silicone like layer on my skin so my legs kind of glided past.

This year, I nicked my husband's swimming shorts to go under my skirt- the stretchy, Lycra, half way to knee kind. They are the best solution I've found so far. Will order body glide to try - hadn't heard of that!

Woohoo deodorant and anti chaff stick is amazing. They are Australian but I think they post internationally. You can get sample pots too which are tiny so I keep one in my hand bag for day out. Then use the stick for deodorant/anti chaffing all the time.

I didn’t find any of the creams or sticks lasted. The best shorts are from The Big Bloomer Company

I’ve always wondered! 👽
