So I have a pet peeve and wondering if someone has already solved it?

I wear a 7mm hood and my chin is chaffing like dry baklava (not sure if that simile works :p) for days after diving. I have tried diving with and without stubble to see if that was the issue and no luck. It definitely isn't the end of the world but if there is a quick fix or something I am missing I'd love to know.

(I did a topic search for chin chaffing)

What about body glide? It's a lubricant you put on your skin to prevent clothing or shoes from chafing. Runners and other athletes use it. i don't know how well it holds up under water, but it is meant to be used in sweaty activities, so it might be worth a try.
