Defeating chub rub/chafing under a ball gown

I have always had super thick thighs that rub together and create awful chub rub. Sometimes I use deodorant and sometimes I use a little powder. Sometimes it's works, and sometimes it doesn't.

I have always had super thick thighs that rub together and create awful chub rub. Sometimes I use deodorant and sometimes I use a little powder. Sometimes it's works, and sometimes it doesn't.

I was just thinking about my ball gown wedding dress and how much I may be sweating under that thing. Any ideas on how I can defeat chub rub on my wedding day. It's so painful and that would ruin my day.

I was thinking of a full body undergarment? Shit I even thought of putting a fan under the sweetheart table.

    Use monistat complete care chafing relief powder gel. It has a purple lid. It's not oily or anything like that

    I'm probably old school, but I wear pantyhose! LOL!

    Body glide! I have chafed horribly on long runs in the past. It does an excellent job of preventing that. And if you currently have any chafed spots that you're trying to heal, get Sports Slick!

    If you take a hot glue gun and turn your spandex inside out. Put a ring of glue all the way around the bottom edge, it prevents it from sliding up your leg. Works much better than double sided tape

    Gold Bond has a friction rub that is great. You can find it at Walmart or most pharmacies

    Silicone-based lubricant also works

    I get thigh rub BAD when I run. I usually use an anti-chafe spray used for cycling. Google "Trislide".

    Spanx! I have shorts that go up to right under your bra. Shorts go to right above the knee so no chub rub!

    Body glide, like other posters said! My thighs are thick and I run a lot - I did a half marathon in Atlanta in August - put that on my body literally everywhere, it was amazing. No cub rub after two and half long sweaty hours Smiley smile.

    They make non-scented for sensitive skin.
