Anyone who exercises regularly and suffers from chafing, itching, sunburnt lips and other skin irritations whilst training can benefit from our products. Our most popular market is for runners, athletes, triathletes, cyclists, mountain bike riders, personal trainers, paddlers, and anyone who likes to train and exercise frequently.
No. The Striderm range of products for the skin of active bodies was developed by collaboration between an athlete (who is also a chemist) and an experienced cosmetic chemist. These locally designed products are manufactured from local and imported ingredients right here in Brisbane, Australia.
Yes, most definitely. As active people ourselves, we can certainly empathise with you, as we have all had uncomfortable and painful chafing at some time. Our products help you by providing protection against chafing; thereby increasing your level of comfort during exercise. This allows more frequent, comfortable sessions, and this alone usually helps results!
Striderm is focused on formulating performance-based products, so we developed different products to meet different personal needs. We recognise that users have different requirements when it comes to protection against chafing. For example, people undertake different levels and duration of physical activities; some people do not chafe as readily as others do; some have a preference for different levels of lubricity. Therefore, we developed two different products, Striderm Anti Chafe Extreme and Striderm Chafe No More!, to meet these specific needs.
Each product is based on a similar mixture of silicones. These silicones are the principal ingredients of Striderm Anti Chafe Extreme. In the case of Striderm Chafe No More!, protection is provided by this mixture of silicones with the support of ingredients that deliver the added oils and aloe vera juice to lubricate, soften and moisturise your skin.
At any time! Striderm Skin Survival is a rich vegetable and nut oil-based formula that can be used to soothe and moisturise irritated or overworked skin, or skin dried by the elements, as may occur arising from your activity. In any case, Striderm Skin Survival Cream can be used at any time to moisturise your skin, e.g., before your activity. Why not try applying it before your next long run on a cool morning!
