  Pros

  First off, the scent isn't as medicinal as some might expect. It's closer to a refreshing menthol fragrance. After applying, you might initially think, 'Huh? Why does this cooling gel feel like a regular soothing gel?' But soon after, you'll notice the cooling effect subtly persists. The texture is exactly what you'd expect from a soothing gel. It's also colorless, just like an aloe vera gel. I appreciate that it's free from parabens, benzophenone, mineral oil, triclosan, and artificial colors - a '5-free' formula.

  Cons

  However, for some reason, I found myself reaching for it less often than my cooling foot patches. This might be the limitation of a gel-type cooling product. With foot patches, you can just stick them on and forget about them while you do other things. But with this, it gets on your hands when you apply it, and if it rubs off, the lasting power is reduced. Also, they've explicitly listed several ingredients as 'concept ingredients' on the back. In cooling products, it's really the menthol and ethanol that do 99% of the cooling work, while the rest mostly just make up the formula - the others are truly just 'concept' ingredients as they admit. At least they're being honest about it. All in all, it's an excellent product among gel-type cooling products, but whether it's better than cooling patches is debatable.

  Tip

  Occasionally, you can find this on sale at E-mart. I've seen it in the discount section at a good price. That's probably the best time to buy it if you're interested.
