Key actives
Mentholactive
Menthol is the cooling compound in mint. It acts on the nerve receptor that also answers to cold, which is why skin feels cool without any change in temperature. On this cream's own ingredient list it is named twenty-seventh.
Dipotassium Glycyrrhizateactive
Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate is a water-soluble salt derived from licorice root. The panel names it fifty-fifth on this cream's list, beside Menthol.
Hydrogenated Olive Oil Unsaponifiablesbarrier lipid
The fraction of olive oil that will not turn into soap, which is the sterols, squalene and vitamin E, concentrated and hardened. It is a rich barrier lipid. The panel names it twenty-eighth on this cream's list, beside Menthol.
Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extractplant extract
Melia Azadirachta is neem. Its leaf and flower extracts are long-standing Ayurvedic ingredients, and Korean formulas use them in products aimed at the look of congested, blemish-prone skin. It is named forty-third on this cream's list, alongside Menthol.
Coccinia Indica Fruit Extractplant extract
Coccinia Indica is ivy gourd. Its fruit extract is used as a conditioning, hydrating plant extract in Korean formulas. It is named fiftieth on this cream's list, alongside Menthol.
How to use
- Smooth over the face and neck as the last step of a routine, once toner, essence, and serum have fully absorbed.
Where does this cream go in my routine?
As the last skincare step, morning and evening, over serum. Anything thinner than a cream goes on before it, and anything richer goes on after. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Menthol and not three changes at once.
Does this cream contain fragrance?
Yes. The ingredient list names Citral, Citronellol, Coumarin and Geraniol. They sit on the panel printed on this page, so you can read the position for yourself before you buy. If fragrance components are something you avoid, this cream is not the one.
What else is on the list besides Menthol?
Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Hydrogenated Olive Oil Unsaponifiables and Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract. The order they are printed in on this cream's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Menthol sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Coccinia Indica Fruit Extract, Aloe Barbadensis Flower Extract and Solanum Melongena (Eggplant) Fruit Extract.

How it works
The Circulating Massage Cream Juniper Berry & Lemon is a 100ml cream, used as the last skincare step, morning and evening, over serum. The active it is built around is Menthol, named twenty-seventh on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Hydrogenated Olive Oil Unsaponifiables and Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Menthol stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the cream format rather than by the list alone. AROMATICA sells this Menthol cream in Korea, and this is that version.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this cream on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Menthol on the list.
- This list names Citral, Citronellol and Coumarin, so skip it if fragrance components are something you avoid.
