Chamois Creams (w/o parabens OR witch-hazel)

[ladyicon]

Please enlighten us Oakleaf, what do you use. I was simply adding my 2 cents. That is why I put the site up for her to be the judge. Sorry for butting in. I did not know that it had quatuary components

I use my all natural women's specific chamois cream. It contains no water just all natural nut butters, oils and essential oils. Lasts a long time, goes on thick like a paste and works with the heat of your body to lubricate and heal the skin. it is called Booty Balm. There is a men's version called Ballocks.

It's good to look outside of the LBS. 100% pure shea butter is excellent. I have chemical allergies to i-dunno-what. So i try to avoid all kinds of creams and stuff. Shea butter is great, doesn't sting, spreads on thick and absorbs into the skin, keeping it smooth and soft too. It also washes right out of yr clothes. unlike mineral oil based products. I have had huge stain on my bedsheet from mineral oil and took 4 washes to wash out..Shea butter, never.

I dont use any products and only got a minor rub last year doing my first century. If I did though I would want paraben, witch hazel and animal free ingredients so A+ to this thread!

Hoo ha ride glide...

I have some coming in any day now. I got samples at the show, and liked it's consistency, smell etc. But I haven't been riding anything long enough to warrant needing anything for the hoo ha.
But I did have one of our male friends, who has lots of trouble down under try some. He said it actually healed his boo boo's, and gave it a thumbs up.
I did hand out some samples, but have yet to have anyone give me a solid review.

I use A&D ointment. I smell like a freshly diapered baby, but it's easy to find (even in my small community) and works well for me. I think bag balm would also work well for me, but A&D is easier to get hold of.

Here are the ingredients I see: Petrolatum (53.4% - Skin Protectant), Lanolin (15.5% - Skin Protectant)

Inactive Ingredients: Cod Liver Oil (contains Vitamin A & Vitamin D), Fragrance, Light Mineral Oil, Microcrystalline Wax, Paraffin

I found a new product called, ironically...That Butt Stuff. I emailed the owner of the company asking for the ingredient list, and he promptly replied with:

Hi Linda

I have a blend of the following oils:

Olive oil. Avocado oil. Sweet almond oil. Shea butter.

Aloe Vera.

Water & vegetable glycerin

Preservative free of parabens or formaldehyde.

No animal products or byproducts.

Sweet orange essential oil & tea tree oil in small amounts.

Not all natural or organic but it is as natural as posible and is still affordable. 99% natural!

Thank you for the question! Let me know if you have anymore questions.

Thanks

When I run out of my current stock of Assos and Nubutte creams, I'm definitely giving That Butt Stuff a try.

semi OT, but I have discovered that Nubutte doubles as an amazing cuticle cream.

I have also used it more as a chamois cream since my last post. It works quite well and I have no complaints about its function as a chamois cream at all (and it seems to soothe and soften the bikini line too), but I still think it's slightly more of a pain to apply to the chamois than other formulas.

I just wanted to add something to this topic and also take it and run....

My mother is a BC survivor, her mother was a BC survivor and my father's sister is a BC survivor. That makes me HIGH RISK and you can bet that I am going to pay attention to everything that goes in and on my body. Admittedly there is a lot of information out there that may or not be reliable. However, there is something that I try to keep in mind. Parabens in small amounts may not be a big deal but most people do not realize that just how much they are putting on their bodies each and every day. It's in conditioners, lotions, make-up, styling products, deodorants and more. And who knows how they interact with other chemicals people come in contact with?

My rule is if I couldn't put it in my body, I don't put it on my skin.

I am a total devotee after my first century on Sat. I applied a bit more at 75 miles in, but probably didn't need to. I just happened to have a sample tube along and thought, what the heck. It's really nice stuff, though...perfect slippery, buttery consistency, nice light lemony fragrance. No real tingly sensation, which is OK with me. I'm not sure I really care for a ton of tingle.

I accidentally used a sample of the DZ Nuts (something like that), and let-me-tell-you that you do not want tingle. It was over the top, something much less would probably be fine. The women's version was fine - I suspect that is the only difference between the two. Can't see how ANYONE would like that much tingle...but perhaps that's just me.

Thanks for the tip on this...I wonder if they send samples? I don't think I can check out their website from work - the filter would probably choke on part the name of the site. I like that it is mostly natural - have tried the Chamois Butter - but of course it has parabens...

I can't stop raving about That Butt Stuff--the product, and their customer service. I just got my second order today (I ordered 2 tubes, this time, since that was a large enough order to qualify for free shipping). With my first order they included 2 free mini sample tubes (I gave one to a friend and she also loves it) and a sample tube of their chain lube. With this order they included another sample tube, plus a sample of their homemade soap and a couple of vinyl stickers. I really think I might have to put one of those stickers on my car, just to freak people out.

Just fyi, anyone who is allergic to latex should NOT use a product with avocado oil. The same chemical in latex that causes the allergy is also found in avocados and bananas.

This stuff rocks.. Chamois Glide (may be the same as Bodyglide) ... Ether way.. no chafing after 100+ and my shorts aren't a mess.
