| GIGA Tea Tree Cream Massage Rub
GIGA stands for God is Good. Always. Indeed He is. I am not sure about this balm though. Although I have yet to test this on the road, I already have mixed feelings about this. The original variant of this is called No Pain Massage Rub. What I love it is that it has that super minty cool feeling that really alleviates my headache, occasional muscle cramp and dysmenorhea. It also is my smelling balm when I board a bus because I get nauseous when traveling. I also got by the very hot summer months this year because I would apply this on my chest and back and when the air from the fan would hit my skin, there would be that cool feeling. It used to be my Holy Grail Travel Companion until I got sick and tired of its smell.
This is why I decided to give the Tea Tree Massage rub a try. I figured I love the original variant, so why not try another type right? Wrong. I am quite disappointed that it does not have that well known minty feel. I made the mistake of only smelling it and not applying it on the skin. Had I done that, I would have known that this is not minty cool at all.
For now, the only redeeming factor that this cream has is its smell. It strangely smells of patchouli although the label does not indicate that it does. What it actually has are VCO, Beeswax, Tea Tree Oil, Lavender Oil, Lemongrass Oil, Aloe Vera Extract.

| Consistency is balmy and texture is smooth. This does not feel sticky at all. |
Even though I am not super excited about this, I am still willing to continue using this. It's only 95 Php so it's really not that much big of a deal. I'll tell you how it fares when I take it on the real road test. I'll be going to the province this weekend so I'll be able to see how this works.
Holy Grail Verdict:
Effectiveness: 3/5
Price: 5/5 95 Php
Availability: 4/5 Available at all GIGA or SESOU kiosks
Hi. I asked the salesperson of Sesou and he said that this is formerly known as No Itch Balm, not No Pain as you have indicated. Probably the reason why you missed the minty feeling after application. I still have my original No Pain balm and it contains ginger and peppermint. This one had lavander and tea tree oil :)

ReplyDeleteThnx for the feedback gRace. Actually i would still have preferred if this has that minty feel. Yep this is more for itch than pain and aches
ReplyDeleteHi Miz. This is PEPING DE VILLA of GIGA. Im sorry for the shortcoming of our sales staff who assisted you in your purchase.
ReplyDeleteLet me clarify that the TEA TREE CREAM is our former NO ITCH and the MASSAGE RUB CREAM is our former NO PAIN. We changed labels to comply with certain FDA regulations about claims (No Pain and No Itch).
There is no product called TEA TREE MASSAGE RUB since these are two different items which have different essential oils meant to address different concerns.
I thank you that you are happy with our MASSAGE RUB CREAM, which contains Ginger and Peppermint.
Just to let you know, we are grateful that this product has helped a lot of people alleviate pain and stress.
If you need to be further clarified, please email us at gigaventures@gmail.com and we will be more than happy to help you.
God bless!
Hi, I was given a GIGA Product VCO Peppermint/Ginger Liniment and it worked for my tendonitis, so I asked the friend where she got it. She told me it is sold at Megamall, however, I won't be going to Mla soon. I am wondering if you have a branch here in Naga City, or is it sold in Drugstores ????
