The holy trinity of summer skin saviors
It’s that time of year friends. We are smack dab in the middle of summer. Or as I affectionately like to call it, Back and Boob sweat season. Some people love summer. I am not one of those people. Summer for me means a few minutes outside in the heat and I start to sweat profusely. It also means that as someone who is blessed in the chest and a member of the thick thigh brigade, chafing is inevitable.
For the longest it seemed like something I just had to deal with. Summer heat and chafing go hand in hand. Luckily, in recent years brands have gotten hip to the dilemma and acted accordingly. I have discovered a few products that are game changers and allow me to wear whatever I want and stay dry, chafe free, and comfortable.
- Lush Silky Underwear dusting powder
Shout out to the OG beauty vloggers for putting me on to this. It’s a dusting powder and I use it for keeping boob sweat at bay. Sprinkle a bit over your chest and under your boobs before getting dressed. It I’ll help you stay dry and it smells like lavender.
2. Monistat Care Chafing Relief Power Gel
So this is probably the last brand that comes to mind in terms of chafing but stick with me. This is the first product I ever found that actually worked for chafing. It’s a gel formula that dries to a powder. Use it anywhere there’s friction. It also helps to soothe any area that’s already irritated from chafing. This is the most affordable of the three, but it may require reapplying after several hours.
3. Megababe Thigh Rescue Anti-Chafe Stick
This is the newest product in my collection, and the only one specifically designed for thighs. It comes in stick form, and just like deodorant you roll it on. It takes a few minutes to dry but once it does it leaves you super smooth. I used this on my recent trip to Memphis. It lasted all day and I was able to wear shorts and dresses comfortably
There you have it! Everything I use to survive the summer heat. I hope if you are in need of some products or just need a good laugh, this was helpful to you. Let’s not suffer in silence friends. If you have tried any of these, or have other products to recommend leave them in the comments!
