Choosing between the hemp and arnica lines
The hemp and arnica ranges overlap in the sense that both are sold for massage and after activity, but they are positioned differently. The hemp range centres on revitalising gels and a high-strength cream with hemp oil and arnica, aimed at work and sport. The arnica range is built around Arnica Montana extract, with a standalone cream and gel. If you want a single product with a broader blend of oils, the hemp cream is the more complete option; if you specifically want arnica, the arnica range keeps the focus narrow.
Where bee venom and magnesium fit
The bee venom range is aimed at skin, with a massage cream and a face and body cream. The massage cream is described as paired with propolis and royal jelly and designed for daily massage on joints, lower back, knees, neck, shoulders, hips and feet. The magnesium range is split between revitalising products and a night cream, so it makes sense if you want a routine that winds down in the evening rather than a product for muscles after exercise.
Tone and firming products
The tone and firming range includes a collagen body cream and a cellulite cream. These are skin-focused products rather than massage products, so compare them on what you want from a body cream rather than on the active ingredients used in the massage lines.
Practical checks before ordering
Check the size and format you need, since the same products appear in 100ml and 300ml versions. Read the ingredient list if you have sensitivities, as the brand emphasises the absence of certain ingredients such as sulphates and mineral oils. Delivery to UK addresses is charged at a flat rate under a set order value, and returns are handled at the customer's cost.
