Natural + Science
Formulated for everyone. Whether you’re training, hiking, lifting, gardening, or just on your feet all day, UNDRBUDR products are made to prep, protect, and recover - supporting skin comfort, mobility, and muscle relief. We pair time-tested botanicals with modern testing, so every ingredient performs with purpose, natural where it matters, functional where it’s needed, and always designed to make you feel your best.
Our formulation RoadMap:
- Natural: botanicals and pressed oils in their natural state – what we use the most by volume in each of our product.
- Naturally-derived: plant-based ingredients refined for stability, texture, and performance
- Our approach: prioritize skin health with ingredients that perform better naturally. We source premium ingredients from trusted suppliers worldwide, test for measurable performance, and keep the formula clean. We won’t be the cheapest - and that’s by design.
Chamois Cream / Anti-Chafe Cream
Don’t Lubricate - Condition
A high-volume blend of natural emollients that condition, protect, and stay comfortable as you move. Formulated without parabens, phthalates, or petrochemicals, our naturally derived blend is skin-friendly, gender-neutral, and built for comfort where it counts. Key ingredients include:
Shea Butter
Hydrates and protects skin under stress
Beeswax

Aloe Leaf Juice
soothes and calms skin
Safflower Seed Oil
softens, supports barrierShea Butter – deep conditioning resilience
Cocoa Seed Butter
long-lasting nourishment
Coconut Oil
lightweight glide, conditioning
Jojoba Seed Oil
supports moisture balance
Performance, proven
When developing our chamois cream, we looked at how to prove performance – something our competitors don’t do. There are specific parameters that make a good anti-chafe cream, and we measure them. Lab testing using ASTM methods from both the skincare and chemical industries shows up to 30% lower friction vs. leading brands. Unlike oil-heavy formulas that break down with sweat or moisture, our blend maintains glide and handles ~2× more moisture without a noticeable change in feel.

Why don’t we use petroleum byproducts?
They’re cheap and last forever on the shelf and used by competitors for cost savings - not comfort. Many legacy creams were designed as simple lubricants; we focus on conditioned, resilient skin first, with glide as a result- not a “grease-first” strategy.
UNDRBUDR Muscle Rubs
Behind every UNDRBUDR muscle rub is a process we built from the ground up. Most off-the-shelf herbal extracts, like Arnica, Cayenne, and Comfrey - are dilute, inconsistent, and easily degraded. We wanted better, so we direct-source our botanicals and use a proprietary, in-house extraction method that concentrates the active compounds without damaging them. The result is a higher-potency infusion with consistent performance, clean ingredients, and reliable results you can feel.
Activating Muscle Rub (Pre-Activity)
Get Ready to Move.
A botanical warm-up designed to stimulate the senses and prep muscles and joints for activity:
-
Capsicum (Cayenne Pepper derived) + Black Pepper – natural warmth; pre-effort “switch-on” helps promote circulation
-
Arnica & Comfrey infusion – Our special sauce – a “precovery” blend to help speed up repair and reduce pain after
-
Citrus base essential oil blend – An energizing scent that says “Let’s Go”
Recovery Muscle Rub (Post-Activity)
Repair, Recharge – Come back Ready
Our base is a 6× concentrated infusion of:
-
Arnica – time-tested for soreness; research notes helenalin’s interaction with NF-κB pathways that regulate inflammatory signals
-
Comfrey – rich in allantoin, widely noted for cell support and tissue care
-
Essential oils (e.g., lavender, cypress, cedarwood, sandalwood) – address stiffness, spasms, and post-effort tension; support restfulness
Performance, in practice
We surveyed over 100 participants from elite athletes to everyday active people – here’s what they said:
- 20% said their current recovery product was only “Slightly Effective”. That’s basically saying it’s barely better than nothing
- 20% said their current recovery product was “Highly Effective”
- 45% found UNDRBDR to be “Highly Effective”
- 55% indicated a noticeable benefit
Why this mode of action?
When developing our Muscle Rubs, we explored all the trendy formulation options; lactic-blocking creams, magnesium topicals, and CBD. The science and practicality weren’t compelling: lactic blockers and magnesium require unrealistic concentrations and penetration to work. CBD remains costlier with limited, mixed evidence for topical recovery. Time-tested botanicals like Arnica, Comfrey, and Cayenne performed better in our testing, have volumes of peer reviewed clinical data, and user feedback to back them up - so we built around those.
