Muc-Off 20148US Athlete Performance Luxury Chamois Cream, 250 Millilitres - Antibacterial, Anti-Chafing Moisturiser - Formulated For Athletes

Product Information

Although chamois cream is a really great tool to prevent chafing while riding, not everyone uses chamois cream nor is it always needed. Crotch Guard Skin Care Oil is a chamois cream that isn't because it's an oil. It's different to a barrier cream, Crotch Guard claiming that it works 'in' the skin rather than 'on' the skin. It's a difference that works. Really well. Some brands make women’s-specific chamois cream, which contains different ingredients from the men’s version. Chamois cream provides a layer of lubrication between your skin and the pad in your shorts, helping keep you comfortable. It's especially useful for long rides and for indoor training where you may not move around on the saddle very much We’ve also left out the Parabens (we don’t believe you should have Parabens anywhere near your nether regions, or anywhere else on your skin for that matter!), SLS’s and DEA. Our cream is designed to form a protective barrier to help prevent skin damage on sensitive areas, it’s also antibacterial, and ideal for all riding styles from hard-fought classics through to long sportives. So it’s adios to sore and uncomfortable rides!

The best chamois creams are claimed to be water- and sweat-resistant (look out for lanolin in the ingredients). This method of application can still be a great one to try. However, many people opt for applying directly to the problem areas once they have their kit on. Muc-Off says, "A specially formulated cream to deeply moisturise your skin for total riding comfort and protection, over long distances, in all conditions. Designed to form a protective barrier to help prevent skin damage on sensitive areas, it’s also anti-bacterial, and ideal for all riding styles from hard fought classics through to long sportives, whether on the road or on a trail!A useful side-effect of chamois cream was that it provided a layer of lubrication on top of the leather that further helped prevent chafing. Even though there’s no need to treat modern pads with chamois cream to keep them supple, it can be useful to keep you comfortable. Deliberately excluding nasty parabens and toxins, we have made sure our Chamois Cream is infused with essential provitamin moisturisers to help create that long lasting hydrated feeling on your skin. Only if you want to. I ride almost every day, and have a saddle and shorts combination that can allow me to ride in comfort for a good few hours without, but if I'm testing something new, or am feeling a little sore I slap some on. Other friends and colleagues can't fathom how anyone would ride without creaming up first. It's all a matter of personal preference. Where do you apply chamois cream? The same can be said for those who race: if you are competing in a stage race, it’s a good idea to protect yourself early doors against any friction that may occur. This is because, once the skin is damaged it’s hard to recover and heal without taking a day off the bike.

The result? A specially formulated cream to deeply moisturise your skin for total riding comfort and protection, over long distances, in all conditions. Designed to form a protective barrier to help prevent skin damage on sensitive areas, it's also anti-bacterial, and ideal for all riding styles from hard fought classics through to long sportives, whether on the road or on a trail! Arguably the biggest benefit to using chamois cream is the anti-chafing support it offers. The cream works by creating a barrier between your skin and any areas that may chafe, therefore reducing friction. While this will create a great barrier and lubricant to reduce friction, it doesn't have any antibacterial properties to keep bacteria at bay and doesn't let your skin sweat, so it may cause more problems than it solves.Unhappy with the existing choices, in 2015 we decided it was time to put our 25 years of experience of cycling into developing the ultimate, high performance Chamois Cream. With the help of our pro teams and athletes, we looked at every possible way to improve rider experience. A pH balance formula enriched with natural Aloe Vera, Shea Butter & Sunflower Oils to provide deep moisturising & long last protection. Uses natural fragrances.

The Athlete Performance R&D team looked at every way to improve your riding experience and worked closely with pro teams to bring you the latest addition to the Athlete Performance range. We have also made sure it is infused with essential Provitamin moisturisers to help create that long lasting hydrated feeling on your skin.Designed to form a protective barrier to help prevent skin damage on sensitive areas, it’s also antibacterial, and ideal for all riding styles from hard fought classics through to long sportives, whether on the road or on a trail!

Created first and foremost for cyclists, our formula is also an essential companion for triathletes, runners and endurance athletes of all disciplines who want to minimise chafing. If I'm using a chamois cream, I really don't want to feel that I'm using it, if you know what I mean. I hate that greasy feel that some have, and I'm not a fan of overly cold creams that use menthols. Thankfully, the Muc-Off has none of these issues.For hygiene reasons, don’t ‘double dip’ by taking another scoop with the hand you’ve used to rub in the cream. The luxury formula is enriched with provitamins, uses natural ingredients and creates a mild cooling effect for total riding comfort. Designed to form a protective barrier to help prevent skin damage on sensitive areas, it’s also anti-bacterial, and ideal for all riding styles from hard fought classics through to long sportives, whether on the road or on a trail! Another important thing to consider is the container your chamois cream comes in. This is mainly due to hygiene reasons: pots are a useful shape but bottled/tubed chamois cream that can be squeezed out rather than dipped into are better for preventing double dipping and therefore contamination.
