Using this chamois cream is super easy. Before you head out on your bike ride, simply apply a thin layer of the cream to the areas that come into contact with the saddle. Make sure to spread it evenly for maximum protection. As for the amount, a little goes a long way, so you don't need to use too much. When it comes to cleaning, you can wash your chamois as you normally would. The cream will wash out easily without leaving any residue. Just be careful not to get the cream in your eyes or other sensitive areas. If you experience any irritation, stop using it and consult a doctor. Store the cream in a cool, dry place to keep it in good condition for your next ride.
