Butt Butter from our friends over at Sweet Cheeks in Wanaka is one of our favourite things - and it's not just for cyclists!

Made from a selection of natural goodies like calendula, comfrey, beeswax, cocoa butter and more, it's great for any area of skin prone to rubbing. Simply apply to skin before heading out on your adventure - easy peasy!

Swimmers - apply to areas where wetsuits can rub
Walking, running and tramping - apply between toes and of feet to avoid blisters; between thighs to prevent chafing; where trail running belts sit; and under bra straps
Cyclists - between thighs, the sit bones, and any contact points with gear
Kayakers and paddlers - great for the lower back, and any contact points with gear/seating
Also makes a fantastic hand cream.

Three sizes of tins plus refill packs in store now!
