Skin chafing cream will make everyones day more comfortable

In the past I saw people mentioning Moniistat powder/gell along with body glide & deodorant for inner thigh chaffing. I tried the deodorant this past summer 'just to see' and it worked well enough to get by.

Then while I was picking stuff up for my trip this past Jan-Feb I came a cross it at Walmart & figured I'd give it a try. The Monistat was about $6+ but it worked really well. There was no oily residue on my chothes and it went on really easily. I reapplied right after lunch and that was all we all needed.

DD & I like skirts/skorts and those can be hard on the skin causing chaffing when its warm. DS likes denim and last year had to be carried 2 days because of the chaffing the inner seams caused him. Let me say that back home this never ever happens to any of us. But back home we don't usually walk miles & miles in warm humid conditions.

Sooo, in a nutshell this is my new musthave on all my packing lists. I thought I'd share it for those of you packing for the warmener weather

I totally agree. Everybody's skin is different, so the same cream/lotion might not work for everyone. My best advise is to find something that works best for you and stick with it. Chaffing is very painful and can ruin a vacation.

We have learned....no denim shorts/skorts on vacation. When they get wet it is chafe-city.

Not only does denim chaf but when denim, or any cotton IMO, gets wet in Florida it just doesn't dry.

We loved the monistat chafing cream. It worked great on dh and I. We still have more than half a tube left and we applied it twice a day for a week. I also found the monistat soothing powder to work really well on our son (1). He was getting pretty red and irriated around his legs from his diaper and it cleared it up and kept it away very nicely.
