After 12 years of using various soft chamois cremes I spotted this solid alternative with good reviews so gave it a try. Very different way of getting it out of the tub. It's a bit like very solid Vaseline, and to get enough on my fingers I find I need to agitate it a bit in the tub until it gets warm. Then apply as normal. Result really sticks to the skin and isn't a sloppy mess moving around in your bibs. Haven't had a single saddle sore since the change, so it defo works just as good as the soft wetter stuff, and doesn't feel like you're riding in a messy nappy!
