Sore Muscle & Joint Cream - Soothing Massage Relief for Neck, Back, Hands, Feet - Warming Hot Cream with Natural Essential Oils, Deeply Penetrates...

IT WORKS

Again, it's ok! I LOVE that it's not greasy like tiger balm is, but it does have a bit more oily feel to it than biofreeze. In terms of effectiveness for temporary pain relief....it helps me about as much as tiger balm does, but you get SO much more of it. You do have to use a little more too, but...maybe twice what you'd use of tiger balm, yet this is like...6x as much as you'd get by volume of that stuff, so really it's like getting 3x more for about half again more cost? Again in terms of effectiveness, bio-freeze still takes the cake for me. Absent of that though? I'd totally come back to this before going back to tiger balm.

INFINA ESSENTIALS Sore Muscle & Joint Cream This has a very strong menthol smell to it so if you're going out in public, I'd wait until you're back home unless you don't care if you smell that way. It goes on smoothly and the cooling, heating effect lasts a good while but not a long time. Not too bad for a typical pain relieving cream.

This is a review for the INFINA ESSENTIALS 4-ounce jar of Sore Muscle & Joint Massage Cream with 18 essential oils. The price was $9.99 when I ordered it. Hmm, not sure Im experiencing the pain relief suggested by the product listing. There is a cooling/soothing sensation from using the cream, so thats nice. Has more of a gel look and feel, rather than a cream. A little goes a long way and it takes a while for it to fully absorb into your skin. You also have to wash your hands after applying it because it makes them feel kind of clammy/sticky. This product has a stronger menthol smell than I expected/hoped. Looking at the label, I see that menthol crystals is near the top of the ingredient list. There is also a fairly strong peppermint smell, though lesser than the menthol. I could smell the menthol/peppermint even before I opened the shipping package and removed the lid. Also, some of the cream/gel had leaked onto the sides and into the cover that sits underneath the lid, even though the lid was securely fastened. I noticed it as soon as I unscrewed the jar and saw that my hands were wet.

I was excited to try this muscle and joint cream by INFINA ESSENTIALS because of the many good ingredients listed. Unfortunately, the jar had no seal and the cap was not screwed on properly. The inner cover was crooked and fell into the cream. So while the scent was nice, I'm not willing to use a product like this when it's missing the most basic tamper-proof protection. Since it spilled all over my hands, I can say that my skin was barely warmed by it. Whether it works when massaged into the skin, I don't know. Any product for health or skin care really requires safety seals and other freshness protections. Until they change their packaging, I can't recommend this product at all.
