Product overview
About Tiger Balm Red
The little hexagonal jar found in gym bags on every continent: Tiger Balm's original red ointment, blending camphor and menthol with cajuput and clove oils to warm through muscular aches, stiff necks and knotted shoulders. 19g — a jar lasts months.
A century of the same formula
Red is the stronger, warming Tiger Balm — the one for deep muscular aches (White is the milder cousin for headachy temples). A fingertip's worth massaged in goes further than seems plausible, which is how 19g earns its keep.
How to use
Massage a small amount into the affected area 2–3 times daily, unbroken skin only. Wash hands thoroughly after — clove and menthol are unforgiving near eyes.
Good to know
The red tint can mark pale fabrics. Strong warming isn't for young children or sensitive skin — and as with all rubs, it eases muscular aches rather than treating what caused them.

Frequently asked questions
Red or White Tiger Balm?
Red is the stronger warming one for muscular aches; White is milder, traditionally dabbed at the temples.
How much do I use?
A fingertip's worth, massaged in — more isn't warmer, it's just wasted (and it can tint fabric).
Any cautions?
Unbroken skin, well away from eyes, hands washed after, and not for young children.
