BD1791 so keep doing what I'm doing with the baby oil but also use some cream/ointments? Do you have any recommendations about what I should use?

I often used zinc ointment or baby cream. Vaseline also helped me

BD1791 What does the timeline look like for my skin to adjust?

When I had problems, it usually lasted 2 or 3 days, but my belt was permanently on. I think it heals faster without the belt

        Pjur Bodyglide is the best, but it's expensive. (The original version, not the water based one). Lasts forever though. You only need a tiny amount.

          Angelina so... I just started wearing a camisole and tucking it under the waist part of my belt. It's working really really well so far. Way better than the baby oil was.

              good that it works for you, i would be worried that it would cause too much friction on the skin

                  Angelina I was a little worried about that as well but it hasn't. It stays in place really well. It's been such a relief honestly. I'm really comfortable right now.

                    You also may find it helpful to start training as if you were new to chastity. Start at an hour or two a day and work your way up to give your body a chance to adapt.

                    When I started I either didn't get that advice or I ignored it (I don't remember which! lol). I wore it until it chaffed and stopped until it healed over and over again. Not recommended! lol

                    I find baby powder helpful, especially in the heat, but oil or cream may work better for you.

                    Good luck!

                      I did that. It doesn't matter. The lining sticks to my skin and irritates it. It seems like I'm not alone in this. I've talked to a few people that have had that issue with the lining. I'm looking at getting just a metal belt without any lining. We'll see how that goes.

                        BD1791 MySteel has a CB without any lining. And the owner of one are happy with it.

                            It's strange, it's medical grade silicone, however, change it, at the end you have to do it every certain time.

                                I meet someone that has issue with medical silicon, even if used... elsewhere. Rare but can happens

                                    every skin is different and it may also be an allergic reaction to the material

                                      Joh I saw those. Neosteel does to. I'll likely order one soon.

                                      Ines I'm not sure if it's medical grade silicone or neoprene. All I know is it sticks to my skin and eventually causes a rash.

                                              "Monistat complete care" powder gel works well for some. Available at drug stores in the US. Don't know about elsewhere.

                                                is the rash more likely to be caused by the rubbing or is it an allergic reaction?

                                                    The smooth silicone liners sometimes cause extra perspiration under the liner and this leads to a heat rash. Talcum or baby powder helps if you can apply it as soon as you start to feel the area get warm or slightly red. When the redness develops, the best thing is to remove the belt until the redness goes away and the try again. Your skin will build up a tolerance to the pressure from the silicone liner.

                                                        It is true, but it happens too with the steel. Perspiration and pressure marks are not avoidable at all.
                                                        I had neoprene and is far better silicone, it is much smoother.

                                                            Yes. It happens with steel, also but I think not as much. I have not tries neoprene for a long, long time. Back then, it was not smooth. I think it must help that neoprene is softer and more cushioned.
