Here is what she says about DZnuts Bliss chamois cream:
"I did not find DZnuts Bliss until June 2010 and since then I have logged thousands of harsh miles with Bliss. Before that, I had heard about this new product hitting the cycling markets, but thought it was a bit costly. I was also unsure of its quality, so I continued to experiment with the variety of creams already circulating around, never really finding one product that completely satisfied my needs.
I found my way to DZnuts Bliss (the female version of DZnuts), in the middle of Montana, in a small inconspicuous bike shop, locked in a glass showcase. I was about 750 miles into the 2,800 mile Tour Divide Race, a self-supported mountain bike race from Banff, Canada to Antelope Wells, New Mexico.
A smaller amount of Bliss is required for application, so this smaller tube lasts a long time. Bliss has a slew of natural ingredients that prevent fungal growth, have anti-inflammatory attributes, and most importantly ingredients to aid in healing pre-existing conditions.“Complications”, shall we say, from riding 12-16 hours a day became a problem. Once I reached Butte, Montana, the discomfort from developing saddle sores was high, increasing and nothing was healing because I could not take time off the bike. That day I traded the other products I was using in for a tube of DZnuts Bliss as recommended by the bike Shop.
I have to admit this is the BEST product on the market! Bliss healed existing “issues” I was having without me taking anytime off the bike, and prevented new ones from surfacing! Being packaged in a small narrow tube allowed simple and clean application as well as being compact and streamline to carry.
The only thing I would like to add to its long list of characteristics would be a numbing component. I say this jokingly, but seriously that’s the only thing missing. As one might imagine, being in the saddle for days and days without a rest and a lot of time to think, I began to wonder how to improve this product - that's all I could come up with - a numbing component - maybe just a special edition for Tour Divide Racers!
Again – DZnuts Bliss is a quality product that will keep you in the saddle longer and is well worth the cost! I will never apply anything else in my shorts!"
