Properties of the main active ingredients:

• Horse chestnut extract (Aesculus hippocastanum)

Horse chestnut is a tree native to the Balkan Peninsula. Horse chestnut seed extract is a popular dietary supplement commonly used to improve vein health and reduce inflammation in veins. The main active ingredient in horse chestnut extract is escin, which has been studied for its numerous health benefits.

Horse chestnut extract may be an effective short-term maintenance treatment for chronic venous insufficiency, a condition that can cause varicose veins, heaviness, and pain in the legs. It reduces inflammation associated with chronic venous insufficiency, trauma, surgery, or injury.

Horse chestnut seed extract contains antioxidants that may help protect against cell damage caused by free radicals.

• Arnica extract (Arnica montana)

Arnica is a commonly used remedy in alternative medicine. It is effective for bruises, muscle pain, and joint pain. The plant can be used in homeopathic form in very low concentrations. It is used for a number of conditions, including osteoarthritis, neuralgia, diabetic neuropathy, postoperative pain, and wound healing.

• Chamomile extract (Chamomila recutita)

Chamomile is an herb that has been used for thousands of years for its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties. Most beauty products use chamomile extract as a soothing agent. Its effect on the skin is antioxidant, thanks to the action of the chemical compound apigenin.

Chamomile soothes redness in irritated and sensitive skin and also has an anti-inflammatory effect. It accelerates the healing of wounds resulting from burns. It reduces the signs of skin aging, thanks to its abundance of flavonoids and phytochemicals.

• Camphor and menthol

The combination of camphor and menthol has a pain-relieving effect. It is used for mild muscle or joint pain. Menthol has a cooling effect and relieves itching in mild skin irritations. Camphor increases blood flow to the skin's surface, creating a warming sensation that can distract from pain and stiffness. Camphor and menthol can also improve blood circulation, speed up wound healing time, and reduce inflammation in painful areas of the skin.
