Of summer’s many discomforts, sweat accumulating in the body’s various creases and skin folds is possibly among the worst. And to exacerbate an already undesirable problem, persistent rashes, inflammation and body odor can also develop in these sensitive areas. Doctors have said how effective one over-the-counter ingredient can be for staving off stubborn skin irritation of this type and one spankin’ new cream is on the scene containing a healthy dose of it.
Megababe, a body care brand behind several beloved products for anti-chafing, sweating and post-shaving, recently launched the Fun Gal Stuff anti-fungal cream. This full-body formula contains 1% clotrimazole, an FDA-recognized true anti-fungal that we’ve been previously told stops fungal growth at the source, making it a great over-the-counter option for treating mild infections.
That means this cream is an effective solution for conditions like ringworm, athlete’s foot and other skin conditions that develop in areas where there’s an overgrowth of yeast, like under the breasts, butt cracks, inner thighs and in between the toes.
Reviewers who claim to have struggled with irritation and discomfort for years in areas like beneath the bust say they have finally found some relief with the Fun Gal Stuff, while others have said that it’s helped eliminate stubborn body odor that seems to persist, no matter how diligent they are with their personal hygiene.
“I’m not scratching myself raw anymore,” one Megababe customer said.
This cream also contains colloidal oatmeal, a known ingredient for soothing skin irritation and improving hydration, so it’s gentle enough for daily use.
According to the brand, the Fun Gal cream is aimed at rash treatment, rather than prevention, so you can use it alongside sweat-absorbing products that keep the area dry. To use, just apply a thin layer to clean, dry skin twice a day.

Promising reviews:
“I am well...endowed, let’s say, and especially in the summer I find it hard to keep up with the sweat that inevitably lives between my boobs. No matter how great my hygiene is, no matter how much bust dust, sometimes I end up with a bit of a ‘funk’ shall we say? Fun Gal Stuff immediately made a difference in the smell that comes from between the girls and made me significantly less self conscious. It’s easy to apply after a shower, and I would highly recommend this for anyone who gets a rash or funny smell in their underboobage area, or anywhere you get a funk!“ — Meg
“A solution to the problem I refused to admit I had. I’ve been dealing with rashy, itchy skin at my thigh crease. It’s never been enough of something to spend the time and money on a doc visit, but is really annoying and somewhat embarrassing. This has been a game changer - easy to apply, cute tube that makes me feel less embarrassed. I’m not scratching myself raw anymore. This is one product to keep on hand for sure in the heat and humidity.” — Kate
“After losing some weight I started to get a red area in my bellybutton. Then there was a little oder and the red area got worse. I used Fun Gal Stuff and after a couple weeks and the oder and red area were gone! I was am so freaking excited something worked. I have really sensitive skin and my skin was not bothered by this at all.” — Linds
“I’ve struggled with irritation and discomfort under my bust for years, especially in the LA heat, and Fun Gal Stuff has been a total relief. The clotrimazole actually works no more itching or burning and it’s gentle enough for daily use. The colloidal oatmeal keeps things soothed instead of dry. This is officially a staple in my routine now.” — Analouab
