Hi
I am going on holiday in two weeks time and would like to be able to wear my skirts without tights, but if I do this will mean that my thighs will rub together when I get hot and then I will get a sore rash. Thought about wearing some shorts under the skirt but haven't got any. Does anyone have any ideas? I know I can use Sudacream on such a rash but will have to wear tights to stop skin touching skin.
Thanks, Elaine.

I too have worn the shorts but actually found something better - Lanacane anti-chafing gel! Buy a tube of this and your thighs rubbing together won't form a rash as it leaves a protective silky smooth layer. I use this all the time in summer with dresses / skirts and no tights and it really works. You can get it at chemist or in supermarket.

Hi Girls, thanks for the advice, I think I will take the cream and the shorts on hols. I recently had a rash under my boobs and the nurse in work gave me sudacream and gauze strips to stop skin touching skin, it healed it up in a week, so maybe I can use the cream for this purpose as well. Am sooo excited to be going on holiday. Love, Elaine. oxo

I tried the cream and it didn't work well at all for me so i got some of those underwear shorts from Evans and they were magic!
I think it depends on how hot it is with the cream. I was walking around in Spain in temps of near on 100 degrees and i think that is probably why it was no good as it just sweated off!
