If your thighs touch, you'll know all too well how uncomfortable, and sometimes painful, it can be when the weather warms up and your legs rub together. Chafing can cause redness, pain, and in extreme circumstances, the skin can blister.

You may desperately want to wear dresses when the weather warms up and may feel like you can't due to the potential pain that may ensue if you have to walk any sort of distance.

But one woman named Jenny has shared her favourite recommendation to beat the dreaded chafe - and she claims that it's well worth the £10.95 price tag.

Taking Twitter to share the find, the woman wrote: "Girlies with thick thighs that save lives THIS is the best anti-chafing cream ever, you will not need anything else, tested it last year under 35°C heat and put all my girls on."

The raved-about product is the 'Neat 3B Action Cream, Antiperspirant and Anti-Chafing Cream', which costs just £10.95 on Amazon for 75g, and it claims it works well for 'breasts, buttocks, and legs'.

She also recommended Lanacane anti-chafing gel, but said: "It's great but I found the tube too small, I was done within a week", as this one only contains 28g of product.

In the comments, people were saying that they "needed" the product, with some branding it as a "life saver" in the sticky summer months.

One wrote: "Omg I need! I'm tired of my thighs rubbing together, it hurts."

Another said: "I actually stopped wearing dresses cause I couldn't deal with chaffed thighs. I'll give this a try."

The original poster also suggested wearing cycling shorts underneath, but sometimes this won't be an option as the dress will be too short.

Someone else commented: "Omg, I had no idea this kind of product existed! I've only recently worn loose shorts under a dress if I can."
