Product Description

Ruby's Lube is an ALL NATURAL lubricating anti-chafe balm, with 5 simple ingredients: olive oil, lemongrass, calendula, beeswax and benzoin. Ancient to skin care, these ingredients ease friction and chafing common to swimmers, cyclists and runners. Ruby's Lube works because the oils prevent friction while the beeswax keeps moisture and sweat away from the skin preventing tissue breakdown.

Ruby's is not only great for athletes but can be used by the entire family for any dry skin condition. Use Ruby's to moisturize dry feet and elbows, soothe a baby's bottom, massage sore muscles or enhance a romantic evening. Recommendations: Start with less, a little goes a long way and enjoy more as needed. Separation is normal in natural products, just squeeze the tube to blend. Use hot soapy water to remove from fabric and body. Apply before exercise or diapering. If you missed a spot and have chafing, apply to chafed area to promote healing. Store at room temperature.

Chris McDonald, a 7 time Ironman winner, and a proud father of 3 children, makes Ruby's in a small artisan workshop in Boulder, Colorado with the love of his life, Erika.

"As an athlete, I love that Ruby's is all-natural, smells great, and above all else works amazingly well. I have competed with this product for 8 years, and I also use it as a diaper rash cream for all our children."

Ruby's comes with a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If this cream disappoints, please let us know and we will make it right. Have questions about how to apply the cream before an Ironman? Simply message us and Chris will be happy to give you some helpful Ironman hacks (did you know that putting Ruby's on your wrist and ankles will help in taking off your wetsuit in record time?).

It works and it is all natural
I've tried every anti-chafe product on the market and Ruby's is the one that works the best for my needs. Several long course triathlons, mountain bike rides, marathons, open water swims, hikes with the family, diaper rash (my kid not me), Ruby's is my go-to for all of it. The balm is convenient and easy to apply, I use the wax formula for my longer endurance events for added peace of mind.

About halfway through ironman training, I started searching for replacements for the chamois butter brand I've used for ages. I went with this and HOLY MOLY I LOVE IT. It works so much better than a standard butt'r, you use A LOT less, and it seems like it lasts longer. It is also a lot more multipurpose... i replaced my butt'r, my run guard stick, found that it works fine for swimming, you can even use it as lip balm (though I'm not sure it has SPF), there were times I put it between my toes. I think it smells amazing, but my husband was so-so on the smell. Not only did I use it during workouts, but after showers I would put it on some of the highly chafed areas. I honestly think it helped clear some of it up, pretty quickly I might add.
The little tube it comes with will seem like a joke (if you're used to chamois butter like I was) but I took it on multiple long rides and it was fine (and so portable, unlike getting the single serve cardboard chamois butters).
Big fan.

4.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't last long enough for an ultramarathon, but does fine for several hours.
Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2022

I'm a heavy sweater and this product protected my feet and usual chafe-y areas (the underside of my arm where my sleeve rubs, the bottom band of my sports bra) for about 3 hrs max before I needed to reapply it, so I wasn't super-impressed with the durability of the lube for endurance events, but OTOH, it's all-natural, smells nice, and the squeeze tube format makes it easy to apply on feet.

So it's quite good, but not at the level of my preferred lube, the sadly no-longer-produced SportSlick, which didn't ever seem to fully disappear from my skin until I washed it off, and included a little antifungal/antibiotic.

I recommend Ruby's Lube for shorter-duration events and events with opportunities to stop and reapply it ever few hours.

I would give this product 6 stars if I could! Between my friends and I, this lotion was used on 3 curvy girls with thick thighs at a comic convention all weekend. Not one of us had any thigh chafing at all! I usually get chub rub within 30 minutes of wearing a skirt and walking around, but I was fine the whole day. You may need to reapply later in the evening but it will last you a very long time. Doesn’t feel too greasy after it’s applied either! Ruby’s Lube has single-handedly cured thigh chafing, and they have a customer for life in me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works brilliantly

I had significant problems with chafing whilst I was preparing for the Chicago Marathon. I investigated various recommended anti-chafing products and decided to try this and a couple of other brands out based on recommendations. The ingredient list and history about the product were factors in me choosing Ruby's Lube , as was the fact that it is handmade by Chris and Erika in the US.

I have used Ruby's Lube for my runs over 16 miles (2 X 20 mile training runs included) as well as the Chicago Marathon. I have had absolutely no chafing problems whatsoever since using Ruby's Lube. The other products did not work nearly as well for me.

The Chicago Marathon was very wet and I have had several reports of people getting blisters as a result of their wet shoes/socks rubbing. I applied Ruby's Lube on my feet too as part of my preparation and had no blisters.

I will always use Ruby's Lube as part of my essential running kit from now on. It worked brilliantly for me.

I really like the smell but it may not appeal to everyone. It's like lemon balm (which is because it contains lemongrass). The consistency of the body balm is like thick petroleum jelly but thins out with skin warmth so you don't need much to have a protective layer. If warm the body balm does separate a bit when squeezed out of the tube but I just shook the tube and it was fine (or you can just blend in your hand). I am going to try their body balm plus too, which seems more like a wax.

I bought this initially for long runs, 10+ miles. It applies easily, is not greasy (more of a matte feel), has no pungent smell, does not stain clothing, and has a convenient pop-top that allows for easily packing it in and retrieving it from a running vest. Applied once, liberally, prior to a 3 hour sweaty run in 90+ degree heat without needing to reapply.
