I just went to buy the famous anti-friction cream and the anti chafing stick from Decathlon, both Aptonia brand products, because I want to make an in-depth comparison between anti chafing creams.
Raul
This type of product together with sunscreens are the most used for summer and hot days.
Purpose and use of antifriction cream
The main purpose of an antifriction cream is to prevent rubbing of the skin against skin or against a piece of clothing or shoe, but this could be achieved with a simple petroleum jelly, it is cheap and prevents chafing normally produced during sports practice.
Or, for example, to avoid rubbing the thighs or other parts of the body in summer, due to overweight or when wearing a skirt.
At least I look for much more in an anti-redness cream that a pure vaseline does not give me, especially that it is as natural as possible and that the effect lasts on the skin.

Uses of Decathlon and Migoubcn anti-scratch cream
It may come into contact with the female genital area as it will be applied in an area that will be at high temperatures, especially in summer, poorly ventilated, humid due to sweating and closed during many hours of pedaling.
It protects against aggressions produced by the bicycle saddle and repetitive movement and especially minimizes the appearance of pimples (boils) produced by the infection of a hair follicle.
It is a cream suitable for girls, fungicidal, bactericidal and with a long-lasting effect.
