Cycling doesn’t have to mean dry, chafed, or cracked skin. Here’s what to look for in sunscreen, repair creams, chamois cream, lip balm, and hand cream.

Skin Care for Cyclists: The Best Products To Buy

As fellow cyclists, we know the feeling of dry, chafed, or cracked skin. Contrary to popular belief, you don’t always have to suffer—if you choose products that support your skin barrier.

What to prioritize (and why)

If your idea of leisure is long miles through all sorts of weather, invest in skin care that pulls its weight before, during, and after rides. Start with the products that have the biggest impact:

Sunscreen

Outside in any season? Sunscreen is a must. Look for broad-spectrum, high-SPF formulas you’ll actually wear consistently.

Skin Repair Cream

Training for hours outdoors can thrash your skin. A thick, non-greasy repair cream helps restore moisture.

Chamois Cream

A cyclist’s best friend for reducing friction that causes chafing. Quality formulas can also reduce the sensation of minor aches from long sessions.

Lip Balm

Protect lips against wind and sun exposure—sometimes sticking with the classics is best.

Hand Cream

Keeping hands moisturized prevents painful cracks and lets you focus on handling instead of soreness.
