Natural menthol, not synthetic, is a purified extract from the mint plant. Its primary characteristic is its high volatility, which has two consequences: the most immediate is its characteristic aroma that reaches the olfactory receptors quickly; the second, and more useful, is the fact that, as it evaporates, it draws away surface heat from your skin to provoke an immediate cooling sensation, which can last a long time based on the technological characteristics of the vehicle in which it is found. This surface cooling is useful both for the sensation of lightness it provides to arms and legs and, above all, for its specific action of tonifying the vascular bed, thereby improving circulation (thermal shock).
