Is it still chemical free?

In reply to 3leggeddog:


That always depends on what you call a chemical. Ultimately everything is a mix of chemical substances, but Climb On will never use synthetic, oil derived chemicals of the kind that are usually conjured by the term "chemical".

There are no parabens, no polyethylene glycols (PEG thickeners), no stearyl alcohol, no dimethicone, no silica, no sodium benzoate etc etc. etc

I'm actually genuinely interested in this. I've always like ClimbOn, but it's sooooo greasy, event the "creme" that you can only really put it on before going to bed, as it's a bit of a liability to use before driving (or anything involving your hands) as it takes so long to soak in.

I am too lazy to Google, but how it is even relevant that the cream is gluten free? AFAIK, that is important for celiac people who have troubles to digest that.

I checked the ingredients of Climb Skin (works best for me) and it does not look like it has any gluten. Anyone keen to name any creams that have gluten?

Sounds like marketing nonsense for me.

It is all marketing nonsense, hence my post above. None of these products are any more effective than hydrobase.

The bars have the advantage that they don't burst in your bag and make a mess of your kit that is all

Plus you can eat them, if in a tight spot

Judging by the description on the tin, it doesn't contain any vegans either. Phew!

Re eating them, my wife buys jars of coconut oil (eczema, plus feet ruined by too much flamenco, i.e. 4 sessions a week) - and I'm sure she eats more than she uses externally.

I can vouch that it IS delicious, though it's also sold as a food ingredient, it should be!
