Tiger Balm Active Muscle Gel Ingredients

To understand how Tiger Balm Active Muscle Gel delivers its effective pain relief, let’s take a closer look at the key ingredients that make up its unique formula.

Active Ingredients

These are the powerhouses behind Tiger Balm Active Muscle Gel’s pain-relieving action:

Methyl Salicylate 16%: This topical analgesic works by creating a warming sensation that helps to soothe muscle aches and pains.
Menthol 8%: This topical analgesic provides a cooling sensation that helps to soothe sore muscles and reduce inflammation.

Inactive Ingredients

While the active ingredients take the spotlight, the inactive ingredients in Tiger Balm Active Muscle Gel play a crucial supporting role. These components work behind the scenes to ensure a smooth, comfortable, and effective experience:

Carbomer 940: Gives the muscle pain relief gel its pleasant gel-like consistency.
Citric Acid Monohydrate: Ensures the gel maintains the correct pH balance for optimal performance and compatibility with your skin.
FD&C Blue No. 1: Adds a touch of colour to the gel.
Fragrance Active Fresh 1: Provides the muscle gel with its refreshing, mild scent, enhancing your post-workout recovery experience.
Methylated Spirit: Acts as a solvent, helping the active ingredients penetrate deeply into your muscles for effective relief.
PEG-15 Cocamine: This emulsifier ensures that all the ingredients in the product are properly combined, creating a smooth and consistent texture.
PPG-5-Ceteth-20: As a surfactant, this helps to distribute the muscle relaxant evenly across your skin, maximizing its contact with sore muscles.
Propylene Glycol: Contributes to the gel’s stability and enhances its smooth texture, making it easy to apply and absorb.
Purified Water: Forms the base of the gel, ensuring a clean and pure formula.
