I got to the morning without the night in between
First full night in about four years. I sat on the edge of the bed and cried, honestly.







Neuropathy Cream
A cool, fast-sinking cream for the evening ache in your feet and lower legs. Fifteen plant oils in a shea and aloe base. Nothing on the sheets.
Blended in numbered batches. Batch 3 is the last of this run.
First full night in about four years. I sat on the edge of the bed and cried, honestly.
He goes through it twice as fast as I expected. Second jar already.
That sounds small. It is not, if you have had them shouting at you since dinner.
Straight answer: it does not reach the nerve. Nothing rubbed on the outside does. What it does is put something cool and busy on the skin directly above it - fifteen plant oils in a shea and aloe base - and for a lot of people that is enough to take the edge off the signal for a while. That is the honest version, and it is why we are specific below about where it works and where it does not.
The cool arrives in about a minute. It is the first thing anyone notices.
Some people get nothing from it, and pretending otherwise would be an insult to anyone who has been round this block. Here is what the pattern looks like. It does its best work on the feet and the lower legs, in the evening, on the kind of ache that arrives once you stop moving. It does much less for deep or structural pain, less for hands, and less again for backs. If your trouble is in the second group, this is not your cream and we would rather say so here than collect the order.
Sixty days either way. Use the whole jar first - a half-used one still comes back.
Half an hour for some people and most of a night for others, and there is no predicting which you will be until you try it. Reapplying is normal and it is what the directions say - two to three times a day, more on the bad ones. This is the most common criticism the category gets and it is a fair one, so plan on using it like hand cream rather than like a tablet.
It is also why the three and five jar sizes exist. People who use it properly go through it.
Lavender first, then eucalyptus and clove underneath it. It is strong when you open the jar and mostly gone within half an hour. People split on this and they split hard: a fair number buy it partly for the smell, and some find it too medicinal to wear out of the house. If strong botanicals are not for you, that is worth knowing before you order rather than after.
It fades. The people who mind it usually mind the first ten minutes.
Aloe vera gel, shea butter and vitamin E in the base, with jojoba, olive, sweet almond and coconut oils. The aromatic half is chamomile flower, rosemary, ginger root, eucalyptus leaf, lavender, marjoram leaf, clove bud and ravensara. Fifteen in total, and the full list is printed on the jar.
For external use only. Not for broken skin, and keep it away from your eyes.
Orders ship from our US warehouse. Shipping is calculated at checkout. If it is not for you, you have sixty days from delivery to say so and we will refund it.
No need to send back an empty jar. Just tell us it did not work.
All day you are busy enough not to think about it. Then you sit down, and within ten minutes your feet have your full attention. The covers are too heavy and then they are not enough. You are up at one, standing on the cold kitchen tiles because cold is the only thing that helps, doing arithmetic about how much of tomorrow you have already lost.
The reason it does not settle on its own is that there is nothing there to settle. The nerve is sending the signal whether or not anything is touching your foot, which is exactly why rubbing it, moving it, and waiting it out all fail in the same way.
So you stop trying to fix the signal and you go to work on the skin above it instead.

The fast half of this formula sits on the surface and evaporates - that is the cool you feel in the first minute, and it comes from the aromatic oils rather than from anything synthetic. The slow half sinks in and stays: shea butter, aloe, jojoba, olive, sweet almond and coconut, which is the part still doing something at two in the morning and the part that closes up a cracked heel by the second week. Two layers, two speeds, one jar. Neither of them reaches a nerve, and we are not going to tell you they do.
The people who get the most out of a cream like this are using it on the tops of their feet, the soles, and the calves, in the hours after they have stopped moving for the day. The people who get the least are using it on a back or on hands, where the trouble is usually deeper than anything topical can sit above. That is not a limitation we enjoy printing, but you are going to find it out in week one anyway, and we would rather you heard it from us.
The medicated rub you already own is doing one thing loudly and three things badly. It sits on the surface, so it marks a sock and it marks a sheet. It smells like a locker room, so it is an evening-only product whether you wanted that or not. And it comes with a warning label long enough that most people quietly stop using it twice a day. This goes in, leaves nothing behind, and is gentle enough to use as often as the label says. That is the whole difference, and it is the reason this one stays on the nightstand.

There is no photograph of pain, which is the honest problem with a page like this - you cannot show somebody a feeling. What you can show is the shape of an evening. For most people the difference is not that the ache is gone; it is that it stops being the thing that decides what happens between dinner and bed. Many people find that somewhere in the first fortnight, and some never do.
Nobody can photograph a feeling, so this is not evidence and we are not going to dress it up as any. It is the shape of the change people describe.
People differ, and a fair number get nothing at all. This is the shape of it for the ones who do.

I used to plan the evening around whether I could stay off my feet. I stopped doing that in about the second week.

My husband has had it in his feet since his shingles. He put it on, went to bed, and did not get up once.
Verified buyer
It wears off after a couple of hours and I just put more on. That is a trade I will take.

I came for the nerve pain and the thing that shocked me was my heels closing up.

It does not reach the nerve - nothing topical does. It puts something cool and occupying on the skin above it, and for a lot of people that takes the edge off the signal for a while. That is the mechanism and it is the whole of it.
The cool arrives in about a minute. Whether the ache goes with it is the part that varies: some people get that on the first application and others need a week of using it properly before the evenings change. If nothing at all has shifted by the time the first jar is empty, it is not going to.
It is a cream for external use and it is not a substitute for anything you have been prescribed. Do not change or reduce a medication because of it. If you are under treatment for nerve pain, show your doctor the ingredient list before you start - that is a two-minute conversation and it is the right one to have.
It might not be, and we would rather say that than not. What is different is that we will tell you where it works: feet and lower legs, in the evening. Most of what you have tried was sold as a whole-body answer, which is how you end up with four jars. It is also a genuine moisturizer underneath, so the second week usually gives you something even when the first one did not.
Then it does not, and the sixty days covers it. Use the whole jar - judging this in three nights is how people talk themselves out of something that was about to start working, and it is also how people stay on something that never will.
I slept until the alarm for the first time in I could not tell you how long. I have had this in both feet since chemo finished in 2021 and the evenings were always the worst of it. Not every night, I will not pretend otherwise. But most nights now, and it used to be none.

He asked me to order another before the first jar was even empty, which he has never done. Three years of him up and down the hallway at two in the morning, and I had tried every cream in the pharmacy. He uses it on his calves too.

My daughter asked why I was not fidgeting. That is when I realized I had stopped. Mine start the moment I sit down; now it goes on when I make the tea.

My heels had been cracked since about March and after two weeks of this twice a day they had closed over completely. Sixty-eight years old and I have never had a cream do that. I bought it for the tingling in my toes, which I would call a partial success, better some nights than others.

It does help, and on my feet it helps a lot. What nobody told me is that it lasts about two hours and then you are putting more on. I nearly sent it back over that. Once I stopped expecting all night from it and kept the jar by the bed, I got on much better. Third one now.
