A word from the founder<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEver since I was little, I\u2019ve used the miracle remedies of my Chinese grandmother, including the famous Tiger Balm. Super effective for soothing everyday aches and pains (stuffy nose, headache, muscle soreness\u2026), this product has saved me more than once! But I never enjoyed using it: the smell is too strong, it stings your eyes, and it has a synthetic formula with petrolatum (the 1st<\/sup> ingredient on the INCI list)\u2026 I dreamed of a gentler Tiger Balm, kinder to the skin, that I could use every day in a more preventive way\u2014and that would actually feel good to use.\u201d <\/em><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Did you know?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

– 96% of French people<\/strong> know Tiger Balm– 80% have already used it<\/strong> at least once in their life– 20%<\/strong> find it \u201ctoo strong\u201d \/ potentially irritating <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zen in the City balms are gentler and more sensory, with a preventive effect, for effective everyday use that feels good, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
