Natural and effective pain relief

April 29, 2020 Report

Please select a reason

Both my husband and I are into fitness. We used to work out every day with some pretty intense programs. Because of that we do have some injuries such as tendinitis which tend to flare up from time to time. Additionally, we were in a car accident last year which we're both still being treated for. To say we have aches and pains is a bit of an understatement.

Lately we've been using Muscle Care which is an all natural, extra strength pain relieving gel. We both love that it comes in a roller ball format so our hands stay clean and it's not messy at all.

The two main active ingredients are Camphor and Menthol.  Camphor causes numbness of the sensory nerve endings in the skin which relieves pain and inflammation. Menthol provides the icy hot feeling which relieves the heat we feel from inflammation. Once it's absorbed into the skin it causes blood vessels to widen which increases blood flow to the affected area.

The gel absorbs very quickly, so there is no greasy feeling at all. It feels very cool going on and then quickly heats up to the helpful icy hot feeling. The scent is fairly strong at first, but I don't notice after a bit and have no issues leaving the house. The bottle is small enough and the gel dries quickly enough that it's great to throw in my purse if needed plus it's perfect for travel. 

We've both continued to use this because it works. I find natural products tend to work better on muscle and joint aches and pains and this one is exceptional.

I've used L'Oreal Infallible Pro Matte Foundation for years. It's my go-to foundation when I want full coverage with a nice matte finish. I only need a small amount of this to fully cover my skin. It blends out easily and sets down nicely. This can look heavier if you...

Affordable and effective

Love this micellar water. It's so affordable but it works so well. It removes makeup easily and doesn't leave a film on my skin. No issues with irritation or breakouts either.

Does not blend

This is one of the worst foundations I have ever used. I could not get this to blend out, no matter what I did. It just moved around my skin looking patchy and cakey. It just sits on top of the skin and manages to look dry and oily at...
