When To Apply
Pre-Adventure Protection: Always apply before hitting the trails, diving into mountain lakes, or setting off on those dawn patrol missions where comfort makes all the difference.
Multi-Day Missions: The beeswax-based formula stays put through river crossings, rain, and sweat - perfect for tramping, bikepacking, or multi-sport adventures where reapplication isn't always possible.
Why It Works
Born in the outdoors of Wanaka, our natural antiseptic formula is crafted for rugged outdoor conditions. The beeswax base creates a long-lasting protective barrier that won't quit when the going gets tough - wetsuit-safe and built to handle everything.
Ingredients
Apricot Kernel Oil, Calendula Oil, Comfrey Oil, Spring Water, New Zealand Organic Beeswax, Unrefined Cocoa Butter, Emulsifier E, Essential Oils of NZ Lavender and Manuka, Geoguard 221 (preservative)
Herbal Actions
Calendula
A go-to herb for active skin, calendula helps repair damage caused by friction, sun, wind, and sweat. Its antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and antiseptic properties make it a powerhouse for recovery and resilience.
Comfrey Leaf
Traditionally known as "Knitbone," comfrey supports muscle and ligament recovery and speeds up skin regeneration. It’s especially helpful for scraped, bruised, or overworked skin.
Beeswax
We use premium, unrefined organic beeswax—naturally rich in propolis and pollen. It creates a breathable barrier that protects against chafing, dirt, and moisture, while offering antibacterial and antifungal support.
Cocoa Butter
This rich, plant-based butter deeply hydrates and helps lock in moisture. It forms a protective shield against the elements and supports skin healing—ideal for harsh weather and long sessions outdoors.
Lavender Essential Oil
More than just soothing, lavender fights bacteria and reduces inflammation—key for preventing irritation and infection in high-friction areas.
Mānuka Essential Oil
Uniquely grown in New Zealand, mānuka oil is packed with powerful triketones—natural compounds with exceptional antimicrobial and skin-healing strength. It’s your secret weapon for skin recovery in tough conditions.
Butt Butter is the absolute bomb! Recovering from an operation and ramping up the mileage to get my fitness back wouldn't be possible with it, and I love the hand-made artisanship of Jennie's work. It stays on all ride, and if by any chance it does need topping up the mini-tin is always in my riding kit. Ka pai!
This stuff is absolute miracle cream!
It absolutely saved my thighs during a 57km ultra marathon, and again whilst running is high heat in rarotonga.
You don't need to use much of it so it lasts a long time, and it leaves your skin feeling silky smooth and 100% chafe free.
As a bigger girly who has lost a lot of weight, chafing can be a real issue for me with my loose skin. So to have a product like this that helps me run for 10 hours at a time is incredible
Worth its weight in gold!
Perfect
Best product I've come across to prevent chaffing. One application lasted 8hrs running for inner thigh in the height of summer.
Tried this stuff on a bike trip in nz. Love it. Now giving as gifts. I love pumping my usd into the nz economy. They deserve it.
Thanks Christopher - glad you love Butt Butter, and we appreciate your USD :)
I’ve used this for several years and it hasn’t let me down! Highly recommend!
Thanks Josh! Glad you love it.
Works a treat
Thanks Rod! You've been an amazing customer over the years :)
My husband has been using the Butt Butter on his groin for the last few days and is very happy with the lack of chafing. He has been having trouble for a while and nothing seemed to help, the prescribed meds were making it worse.
It doesn't have a strong odour either (the Butt Butter!!!!) - it's mild and pleasant. He - and I :) - are very pleased with the results.
Great product, been using it for years.
Highly recommend it.
Best product for cycling
Sweet cheeks butt butter is the bomb 💣 it's a real game changer. I just wear it everyday now, just for walking. Does exactly what it says it does and I lovethat it's all natural and made right here inbeautiful Aotearoa.
Excellent product. Wouldn't ride without applying it
Love this product. so good for more than what the name suggests. Stops chafing everywhere. Everytime.
Superb lubrication that lasts the whole ride.
Great product!
Using this product for years. Seems to last longer "in use"than some of the other anti-chafing products. Small tin great for taking on a long ride if needed.
Such a great kiwi product, I use it for all my long runs and it never fails! I bought the larger (250g) tin + the smaller lip balm sized one, and use the big one to top up the small. I carry the smaller one in my vest for new irritation areas that pop up mid run. 10/10 would recommend!
Great product
I’ve been using this for years now and can’t rate it highly enough. Totally recommend
It's the best!!
Been using for years,still a great product.
Simply the best ‘butt butter’ that we have been using since day one. Wouldn’t use anything else!
This product is great for cycling 🚴
Great product been using it for ages.
The best anti-chafe cream I’ve ever used, I don’t know how I’d live without it
Thank you Mark!! So glad you are loving it.
Awesome product... No longer ride without it.
Excellent as usual!
Great product and eco-friendly packaging, but this package can be tricky to use/squeeze out.
Great product super easy on the skin, love that it comes as careful pack and service is awesome, thanks team sweet cheeks
The good stuff. Keeping my cheeks sweet through many long adventures
Smooth and healing, this works to prevent and heal chafing in all weather. Great work team - I've tried lots of other options, this one is particularly outstanding! Running, biking, hiking, tramping...
Great product. Apply in the morning, ride for 8 hours, no problems at the end of the day.
