Three brands of anti-chafing cream tested
We have three great brands in our range and we have taken a closer look at them.
1. Squirrel's Nut Butter
Squirrel's Nut Butter is an all natural, non-abrasive ointment. Although I don't think ointment is the right word. It feels more like a what hardened coconut oil. It also only softens when it is a bit warmer. That is also the case here. So when it is a bit colder you have to break the cream loose and let it soften on your hands. It smells nice and as soon as it is liquid, it spreads well. Sometimes a small hard grain seems to remain behind. Stays on for a long time, if you apply enough, and therefore works great.

2. Revvi
Revvi has a completely different product. This is really a soft, spreadable cream. Reminds me more of body lotion. That's how it smells too.Now this is not only anti-friction cream, but it also works directly against dehydration and is anti-bacterial. I have not had any blisters or irritation, but for me it feels more like a lotion against dry skin and cracks than a real anti-chafing cream.
3. Runguard
Runguard is the third. This only comes as a stick to spread and not as a can or jar. Runguard is very similar to Squirrel's Nut Butter (SNB). This product also uses coconut oil, but you smell Runguard a little less. Actually works pretty much the same as SNB.
