Body balm 42g - Body Glide Original Anti Chafe Balm | No Chafing Stick | Prevent Arm, Chest, Butt, Thigh, Ball Chafing & Irritation | Trusted Skin Protection Since 1996

I used this for my marathon personal best and, frankly, that alone earns it a glowing review. If you’ve ever had a long run derailed by irritation, you’ll understand why finishing with zero discomfort feels like a minor miracle. Effectiveness: Outstanding. Once applied, it simply does its job and then politely disappears from your thoughts. No rubbing, no hotspots, no late-race surprises. I had complete peace of mind throughout the run, which is exactly what you want when you’ve got enough else to think about. Ease of application: Very easy to apply. The stick format is clean, quick, and doesn’t involve messy hands or guesswork. A few swipes and you’re sorted. Greasiness & skin feel: Not greasy, sticky, or unpleasant. It goes on smoothly, stays where it’s needed, and leaves the skin feeling protected rather than coated. No residue issues during or after the run. Size & longevity: The size is spot on. Despite regular use for long runs and summer training sessions, there’s still plenty left. A little really does go a long way. Value for money: For the price, it’s brilliant value. When you consider how long it lasts and how effectively it prevents discomfort, it feels almost priceless — especially during marathon training. Overall: A genuinely essential bit of kit for long-distance running, particularly in warmer conditions. Reliable, effective, and thoughtfully designed. I wouldn’t head into another long run without it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Brilliant. For someone abit chunkier I can’t go on a long run without it. Life saver in so many situation. First things in my bag when running an ultra. Probably had about twenty sticks and will keep using it. Doesn’t feel slippy until it activates with the sweat. Very effective. I do feel it’s abit over priced but it’s that same as all other outlets. Just be sure you’re buying the bigger size for the cost as I have been caught out with the smaller one when not taking care when ordering.

Works well, I thought it would be a bit sticky under my shirt but it's not at all. I haven't experienced chafing whilst using this product. I only knock it down a star as I thought it was a bit pricey for the amount/size. It doesn't have a smell.

Good product easy to use

Fantastic product which has totally solved my chafing problems and saved my running. Will definitely be buying again.

This stuff is nothing short of a miracle in a tube. A true life-saver for anyone who’s ever faced the sheer horror of bleeding nipples mid-run or the fiery fury of chub rub turning your thighs into a full-blown disaster movie. First off, there’s no scent—so you won’t smell like a walking pharmacy while chasing those personal bests. No greasiness- It’s also not greasy at all, which means you won’t end up slipping around like you’ve just bathed in cooking oil. Just smooth, easy application and off you go. The functionality is top-tier—this stuff serves its purpose perfectly. I slapped it on before my run, and the result? No friction, no burns, and zero need for post-run emergency care. It’s like an invisible force field for your sensitive bits. If you’ve ever finished a workout feeling like you survived a sandpaper ambush, this is your new best friend. Your thighs (and your dignity) will thank you—no plasters required!

I'm not too sure about this product. It does seem to work somewhat - but not brilliantly. Perhaps it's just me but I had hoped for a better outcome. It's quite expensive for the very average benefit.

This has really helped me from chafing in areas I’d rather not. As an avid runner, the chafe can get uncomfortable, especially in warmer weather. This has completed negated that and has made my running experience so much more comfortable. Good value for money and very easy to use. It’s also quite a large stick so I can see it lasting for a long time.
