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?).

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
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.
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 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.
