Looking for an Ultra Endurance Chamois Cream

[nscrbug]

Does anyone here ever have any sanitary or hygiene concerns regarding the use of a chamois cream product in a jar? In the past, I have always opted to buy chamois creams that come in a tube (I'm currently using a cream called That Butt Stuff), simply because it doesn't require sticking your fingers into the jar...sometimes multiple times. Squeezing the cream from a tube just seems "cleaner" to me. Does anyone else worry about this? Or am I just being over-paranoid about germs and bacteria from fingers tainting the jar?

@XelhaI, Glad you found what you were looking for on Endur-It.

@Linda, I personally don’t think is an issue. Assos which is one of the most popular chamois creams on the market comes in a jar just like Lantiseptic and Endur-It. Also most of these creams have some anti-bacterial properties. Have you ever used a regular cream or makeup that came in a jar? I know I have many times.

I don't think it's an issue, but another advantage of shea butter is that I need to use so little, it only takes one "dip."

I do like shea butter and I just found a chamois cream called Mad Alchemy that has shea in it, but some other things as well like tea tree oil. It goes on a little easier than shea butter but it stays put. I really love it. It's a very small company so most bike shops don't carry it, but you can mail order it from their site. I didn't get the women's specific because I got it at a bike shop, but they have women's specific on their site and I might order that.
