I wanted to chat about why Megababe is so good, and why it’s so needed! If you aren’t familiar with Megababe, it is a beauty company founded by Katie Sturino, that has effective beauty and body products for women’s needs that have seemed to get breezed over for the most part. I’m talking thigh-chafing, I’m talking chest sweat, and I’m talking tush breakouts, just to name a few. I love my curves, but thigh-chafing and excess chest sweat are uncomfortable, and until Katie shattered the stigma on this, they weren’t something people regularly talked about, let alone had products for.
A few years ago, for the life of me, I could not find helpful products, and would resort to leggings under dresses, men’s athletic thigh sticks, and feeling like I was melting away in a sweaty bra. The lack of solutions to these very common aspects of womanhood made me feel embarrassed and isolated, until Megababe. Back in 2017, when I first started using Thigh Rescue, I was like, wait. There are effective products for this?! That are cute, pleasant, non-toxic, and not made for baby diapers or men?!
I have been an avid Megababe Bust Dust and Thigh Rescue user for a while now, and I consider them to be just as integral to my product lineup as sunscreen. I love how the brand keeps growing, and Megababe sent over some of their newer products to try. For the last month or so I’ve been using a few newer products, and no surprise here, they work. And I love them. So, I wanted to share my favorite Megababe products and the problems they solve!
LE TUSH CLARIFYING BUTT MASK
Okay, so butt breakouts are real and I know so many people who have said they also get them. Le Tush helped me get ahold of my body breakouts, in a process that is pleasant. A mask for your tush may be confusing at first. I know, I was thinking, how do I use this? It’s easy! You just apply to your bottom, arms or back, and let it sit for a few minutes before you get in the shower. I also have breakouts on my shoulders and it has been so helpful there. It leaves my skin feeling really smooth and I’ve seen an improvement in my body breakouts overall. It has become my favorite part of my shower routine!
BODY DUST TOP-TO-TOE POWDER
Let’s face it, we all sweat. But, there’s a difference between a little walk around the block or workout sweat, and that hot weather body sweat that makes you self-conscious in your cute summer dress. Body Dust is talc free, paraben free, and absorbs your sweat. I’ve been outside a lot, and the sweat was making my bras stink and me uncomfortable. This has been a great solution because unlike antiperspirant, this doesn’t prevent you from sweating, the product just absorbs it. I apply it to my back and chest when needed before I get dressed, and doesn’t feel stressful to put on my body, knowing there’s no sign of talc. It goes on smooth, and once you get the hang of applying it, it is super easy.
SHOWER SHEETS: BODY CLEANSING CLOTHS
I LOVE these! I shower every night, and even though I wake up feeling clean, sometimes I sweat overnight. The Shower Sheets are refreshing, I just wipe down my body and it’s the perfect in-between shower solution. When I start commuting again, I can imagine these being my most-used item, because by the time I get off the subway, fight my way through Penn Station, and get into my seat on the train out of the city, I am sweating like I ran a marathon. They also smell good! I love that they are biodegradable, it makes me feel comfortable about using a disposable product. Plus, they are paraben and sulfate free.
THIGH RESCUE
Enter the holy grail of Megababe, THIGH RESCUE. Thigh Rescue is an anti-chafing / anti-friction stick that glides on so well and lasts. It prevents chafing and the discomfort that follows, and comes in a scented and an unscented version. I have been loyal to Thigh Rescue since 2017, it has allowed me to say goodbye to Gold Bond, Body Glide, and leggings, and I can wear a dress comfortably. If you walk away from this with one thing it is that if your thighs touch, THIGH. RESCUE. WILL. CHANGE. YOUR. LIFE.
Thank you Megababe for gifting these products. As always, all opinions are honest and that of my own.
