Alternative to chin rub shorts or am I mad!

So you know the way we are all embracing the chub rubbshorts - these have been a revelation to me and I can wear dresses again after all the years of not being able to. Anyway came across these on Amazon. Am going to a hot place in Aug and am worried about getting too sweaty in my trusty chub rubs. Am I going a bit mad !!! They have slimmer ones also !

I mean, they look like they’re made from an old tablecloth. I think they look pretty long as well. I have the Snag shorts and have to wear them quite high so they aren’t visible. I don’t really wear short dresses either, had a knee length one on today and had to wear them high up.

Just googled bandelettes! Interesting! Not as sweaty as the shorts I'd say @SprinkleOfSunak

They have shorter ones and less full ones too!

What in the name of Nelly Olesen are those monstrosities?

A strange cross between a petticoat and French Knickers (remember those?) so — pettiknick? Or pettifrick?

They look like Queen Victoria's bloomers

@spanieleyes22

The first time I wore them, I felt almost naked under my dress, as I’d got so used to wearing shorts. I still sweat in them of course, but they’re so much better than having that extra layer of fabric from stomach to thighs.

Just use solid stick deodorant on the rub points.

Megababe Thigh Rescue Anti-Friction stick. Keep it with you to reapply if needed. Works really well.

Negangirlxx · 30/07/2024 19:22

Megababe Thigh Rescue is literally all you need. Keep it on you incase you need to reapply, but it works like a dream.
