It SMELLS SO GOOD! I call it my trail deodorant, but the bonus is that it helps my skin not rub itself raw on sweaty, humid days.

Works great to keep you chafe-free. Also helps repair skin that has been damaged. It also has a high melting point, so it stays solid when the temps rise.

A super-helpful tin of SNB that stays contained in my glovebox in case I happen to forget the deodorant style stick... which unfortunately happens more frequently than I'd like.

Jen Laughlin, Mostly doing all things outdoors…very experienced, not an expert
Squirrel’s Nut Butter products are an absolute household must. They work to prevent chafe but also for skin restoration, soothing sunburns, healing tattoos, and, can be used on your pet’s skin, too. The absolute best there is, and it’s all natural!

Squirrel's Nut Butter is a must for long runs and ultramarathons. Big help with half tights in particular, but useful to prevent chafing from a shirt or hydration pack on the chest or armpits.

A must have especially when you have thicker thighs; wearing short shorts and/or compression bottoms! I always have this in my bag!

I use this all of the time. It's great for that bra line that often chafes, the rubbing thighs and as chamois butter for long rides.
