Planetary HerbalsHorse Chestnut Cream - Tonifier for Tissues and Vein Appearance - 2 oz

I don’t write a bunch of reviews, but I had too on this lotion! Had some pretty bad bruising in my face this stuff worked wonders! Doesn’t smell great, but woke up to an almost clear face!

I've been using the stuff for about a month now. I got it in the cream form and it's worked phenomenally. I have yet to find anything wrong with it. It smells good and it works quite efficiently it's even working on my varicose veins what few I have. That in itself is amazing. This is sort of like an herb that does all kinds of things but it's only known to do one thing. Either way it works dam good!

I have developed poor circulation in my legs and had been waking up with pain in my legs as a consequence. I had tried Horse Chestnut before as a capsule but it upsets my stomach so I decided to try a cream instead. The active ingredients of a topical cream can enter the bloodstream if the particles are small enough, which is what the liposomal delivery is referring to. Well, this cream had a beneficial effect on my leg pain from day one and continues to keep the morning pain at bay. The witch hazel in this product also does a pretty good job of shrinking the visible spider veins, although that affect is temporary. The only caveat I have for this product is the smell, and it's a smell that sneaks up on you. The scent when you open the jar is medicinal, kind of like Vick's Vapo Rub, with a whiff of the nettles evident on second sniff. Not an Aveda-like botanical smell, but not awful either. But that scent develops into something else altogether the longer it stays on your legs. Later in the night that smell gets strong enough to wake you from a cold sleep. It is not a nice smell at all. If you can tolerate that then you will love this product. It does help. Applying a little baby powder does make the smell die down enough to go back to sleep.

I put this on my one varicose vein and it did minimize it. But I couldn't stand the smell of it. I can't imagine putting this on every day and carrying this fragrance on my leg all day long. So I don't use it. Even though it works it needs to be unscented. And I don't know How the manufacturer could manage that.

WOW.A NATURAL PRODUCT THAT DOES WORK.TAKES TIME. BUT IT WORKS

Used and waiting. Small container, but seems a small amount did the job.

I could not get past the smell to see how well it worked. It was not greasy. Went on well and absorbed in the skin well but the smell just did not agree with me. I had to get in the shower and wash it off.
