Save $$ over Butt Butter!!!
« on: April 05, 2009, 07:11:16 AM »
after reading some reviews of alliterative products to the over price Butt Butter and other bike specific items. I came across Queen Helene Cocoa Butter.  I was a little skeptical but for 4 bucks? I'll give it a shot.  I'm very happy I did!!  this product works like a charm as a anti chaff cream. I kinda always shied away from using these products because the price was so ridiculous and I never really felt I needed it.  After just a few rides I am now hooked.  not to greasy, not to sticky. Washes out easy, I am a HEAVY sweating person and after 3 hours it was still working fine!. It probably will wash off in the summer after a longer ride but don't they all?
anyway, if you've been like me and didn't think it's worth the cash for the butt creams.. try this.  Worse case, it's a great hand cream!

IT's ONLY 4 BUCKS FOR A BIG JAR!!!  and you can get it just about anywhere... Walmart.. local Drug Store.. ETC

here is a write up that got me pointed to the product in the first place.

TMI !!!  :bahha:
Seriously though, I use A&D Ointment. Yes it's greasy (comes right out/clean in the wash) and has that "PrepH odor", but it not only works well, but heals sores and irritations should they occur. Oh, and did I mention that it's cheap too...about $4.50 for 4OZ.

I used to use BB but now I use Desitin Clear.  No residue. washes out and LASTS longer than BB.  I also use BodyGlide on my nips and other problem areas. It's super slick and stays put with no greasy feel  It's expensive thats why I only use it on the small areas  ;-)
