Active ingredients and their roles
Paprika and ginger extract (Capsicum frutescens, Zingiber officinalis)
Paprika (capsaicin) and ginger (gingerols) are rubefacient agents that activate peripheral blood circulation by stimulating cutaneous thermal receptors. They create a natural sensation of warmth particularly appreciated for cold feet, without irritation thanks to the cosmetic concentrations used.
Camphor
A toning and microcirculation-stimulating agent, used for centuries in cosmetology for its warming and invigorating properties. Combined with rosemary and lavender essential oils, it enhances the sensation of warmth and well-being.
Rosemary and lavender essential oils (Rosmarinus officinalis, Lavandula angustifolia)
Rosemary stimulates circulation and tones tissues. Lavender soothes and balances. Together, they give the balm its fresh scent and circulatory cosmetic profile.
Urea and glycerin
Urea is a natural humectant and keratolytic that increases the skin's ability to retain water and promotes epidermal renewal. Glycerin complements this moisturizing action on the surface. Together, they prevent dryness and help the skin maintain its natural hydration.
Avocado oil and beeswax
A nourishing and occlusive lipid base. Avocado oil penetrates deeply and nourishes skin cells. Beeswax forms a protective film that limits water evaporation and protects the skin from cold and wind.

FAQ
Is the sensation of warmth strong?
It is gradual and pleasant, not burning. Paprika and ginger create a gentle heat that builds up within a few minutes after application. For very sensitive skin, test on a small area before full use.
Can this balm be used on cold hands?
Yes, its formula is also suitable for hands, particularly for people suffering from poor circulation in the extremities.
How is it different from Gehwol Refreshing Balm?
The Warming Balm is formulated to stimulate circulation and fight cold feet. The Refreshing Balm is formulated to soothe overheated, tired feet or heavy legs. Two opposite needs, two distinct formulas.
