Review: Great product - Great cooling effect, pain relief, wonderful product
Review: Works instantly at relieving itching and stinging - For the first time in 59 years I have got prickly heat on my forearms whilst driving in the heatwave and I’ve developed an awful sweat rash on my neck and intertrigo under my breasts and around my armpits. The itching and stinging has been unbearable. The rashes look bright red and are very unsightly and in some areas there are raised spots like blisters. I received this cream today and applied it immediately and the relief was instant. The redness has calmed down and in some areas has disappeared altogether and the pustules have shrunk. The relief is immense. For something so Inexpense it is absolutely amazing!
