Description

Crafted with natural plant waxes and essential oils, the balm creates a breathable barrier that protects vulnerable areas such as hands, thighs, and seat contact points. The texture is non-greasy and absorbs well, ensuring skin stays dry and comfortable without clogging pores or leaving a residue. This is especially important in warm and humid conditions, where sweat can worsen friction-related irritation.

Clove and Cajeput essential oils provide natural antibacterial properties, helping to reduce the risk of infection, an essential benefit for anyone training in open water or shared environments. Hypoallergenic and free from parabens, chemicals, and silicones, Rowers Rub is gentle on sensitive skin while delivering powerful results that last through long sessions.

Whether you're an elite rower, a weekend paddler, or a watersports enthusiast dealing with sore or abraded skin, Rowers Rub is a trusted solution for both prevention and recovery.

How does it work

Rowers Rub works by forming a durable, breathable shield on the skin using a natural blend of plant waxes and essential oils. This layer minimises direct skin contact with clothing or equipment, reducing the risk of friction, hotspots, and blistering. The non-greasy formula allows sweat to escape while still protecting the skin, making it ideal for high-sweat, high-friction environments.

The addition of antibacterial essential oils such as Clove and Cajeput helps to defend against infections that can develop in raw or broken skin, especially when exposed to water. Together, these ingredients support both prevention and fast recovery, ensuring athletes can stay focused on performance without being distracted by skin discomfort.
