- Uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh. Why is it liquidy?
(laughing)
- Nooooo.
(upbeat music)
- Hi, I'm Jordan.
- Hey, my name is Joyce.
- Hi, my name is Tahirah.
And today we're going to be trying out
different chafing creams.
If you don't know what chafing is, first of all,
count your blessings.
- Chafing is really, really painful.
You can get like open wounds from it.
It's honestly just like a really painful red rash.
- I chafe a lot, especially in my thighs.
It's actually a really big insecurity of mine.
That's why I don't really wear a lot of dresses.
I've got them thighs that they write about poetry, okay?
I'm talking about Aphrodite thighs
that are nice and thick.
- I'm super excited to try out these products
because home remedies are cool,
but an issue that I've always had is
that they leave like a residue
or they're like sticky or they're messy.
- We are going to be trying out
three different chafing creams
and test out the following things.
One, is it worth the money?
Two, does it work?
And three, how it feels on your skin?
- Okay, so the first product we're looking at
is Ruby's Lube. Fights friction,
wet and sweat resistant, lightweight and moisturizing.
- All natural. Matches my eyebrows. Ooo.
- Use Ruby's to protect a baby's bottom,
massage muscles,
enhance a romantic evening.
- These people are not afraid.
They're not afraid to go there.
And I love that about them.
- Is this really like lube lube?
And I really want to know like,
is lube recommended as like a chafing product?
Like, is that like a homemade remedy?
- Oh thick.
I mean, it feels nice and you know, my thighs,
they really love each other. So I'm really scared
that this is going to heat up, like cook my skin.
- Oh, I like how it feels.
This feels like moisturizing.
- Uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh.
Why is it liquidy?
(laughing)
Nooooo.
It rubs in like Vaseline,
but I don't know why it squirted out the bottle like that.
I actually am very uncomfortable.
- So this is the Chamois Butt'r.
It says it's the original anti-chafe cream.
It's a non-greasy skin lubricant.
- You get a lot of bang for your buck
because this is a giant tube.
This one like doesn't really have a smell.
- It's white. So it's giving me sunscreen vibes.
This is way more lotiony.
It looks really even,
but in person I could see the white cast over it,
but I guess no one's going to really be
looking in between my thighs.
- Wait, this one matches my outfit.
It's kind of like a heavy lotion,
but I like how it goes on.
It doesn't feel like as oily as like the MegaBabe.
- Okay. But you see like, you really have to, like,
(gags)
I don't like this.
I don't like this. What is that?
It's not even blending.
It reminds me of the SPF that say that
they're, you know, women of color friendly,
but then you'd be looking like this.
- And then we have the classic MegaBabe.
It's like, oh, like Instagram,
like aesthetic, you know,
people rave about this.
Thigh rescue, anti-friction stick with aloe,
pomegranate and grape seed oil.
- It's kind of like a deodorant kind of thing.
- I love the aesthetic of it.
These colors are very cute.
I feel like they're very youthful.
It kind of smells like a very popular scent
in like a car freshener.
Because I wear hijab,
I'm not showing y'all me putting this anywhere,
but on my hand, okay?
Sorry.
(tape scratch)
You don't get no show for free.
It's definitely very soft.
And as I blend it, it kind of blends down into nothing.
- I feel like the thing about this MegaBabe one
is that it feels kind of like oily.
It doesn't feel greasy in like a moisturizing way.
I don't love the feeling of it on my skin, personally.
- My initial thoughts is this is definitely
the best of both worlds
between the Chamois Butt'r and the Ruby Lube
because the Ruby Lube was very slippery.
(upbeat music)
- This one's more of a oil based one.
Ruby's Lube.
She's lubing me up, baby.
I really like it.
- We're going to do a little, a little yoga,
a little like things where my thighs are
maybe like coming together a little bit
to see and test it out to see if it works.
Already I feel like slippery on this mat
from the chafing cream.
So like, that is not good.
- I helped with the chafing, but when mixed with sweat,
it became damp again. Obviously because like sweat.
And I just didn't like how that mixture felt on my skin.
- So we have the Chamois Butt'r
and I'm going to rub this bad boy in.
It's very sunscreen-y.
The thing is is that it takes a long time to rub in.
Even like my leg hair is white.
It's too thick.
- If you do a lot of like strenuous physical activity,
this may be your, you know, holy grail product.
But it just doesn't work for me.
Who does like casual slash like light workouts.
I also really hate how thick it is.
Literally when I put it on, I felt like I was a baby,
like putting ointment on myself.
- Whoa. I really liked this.
You know what it reminds me of?
It reminds me of like Burt's Bees.
- So now we're going to put Ms. MegaBabe to the test.
I'm gonna do a quick little workout.
AKA me going on a walk.
It still has the natural feel.
So this gave me everything that I loved about deodorant
without the sticky residue.
And I do love the fact that it has natural ingredients.
- I'm going to put the MegaBabe between my thighs
and I'm going to do, I'm just going to run in place
a little bit.
Easy to apply.
Can't really put too much product
because it's like deodorant.
I really like it.
- It does its job. I did have to like reapply,
but like it,
it did its job, you know?
- The product I still cannot pronounce. The Butt'r.
That's just what we're going to call her.
It would have to be like a 0.5 for me.
I just think it's too much for regular daily use.
If you do a lot of strenuous physical activity,
this may be your, you know, holy grail product,
but it just doesn't work for me.
- Definitely, a 2 out of 5.
It's just way too thick. It's like a sunscreen,
but it has no sunscreen benefits.
- I feel like I feel similarly about the Chamois
and the MegaBabe.
Like I would give this one, like a 4 out of 5
and this one, like a 3.5 out of 5.
- Yeah. 5 out of 5.
It was easy to apply.
It was comfortable.
I feel like I could wear it any time
I have a little bit chafing.
Maybe even hit the bat wings a little bit.
- I would say that this is probably my favorite.
Out of 5, this is definitely a 5 out of 5.
- Next, we have the Ruby's Lube Anti-Chafe.
Loved her.
I was scared of her at first early in the video,
but she really does her thing.
I think I put a little too much product on,
but I really think like two drops from this
and my thighs would be good all day.
- I liked how it smelled.
I liked how it felt on,
I think it was my favorite.
So for Ruby's Lube,
I would definitely give it a 5 out of 5.
- She would have to be at 2.
Mainly because I don't like the texture.
I don't like the Vaseline feel
because Vaseline is just very sticky.
Overall, I am happy to see that
we have so many chafing products on the market.
I remember a time where that just wasn't the case.
So I really like how inclusive I feel
like the market is becoming.
- At the end of the day, it works.
Does it work as well as wearing bike shorts?
I don't think so.
- My favorite product has to be...
(pretend drum roll)
- the MegaBabe.
(kissing sounds)
- I love this video for bringing us together
and would I use this again?
100%.
Why should I go back to the life of suffering and pain
when I could be a bad bitch
wearing my booty dresses and shorts, comfortable as hell?
