Chamomile extract is anti-inflammatory and calming and provides healing for sensitive skin post-waxing. Green tea extract is antioxidant-rich and helps soothe and protect the skin from damage caused due to waxing. Cucumber extract cools and refreshes the skin and helps in reducing swelling and irritation on the waxed skin. Menthol provides a cooling sensation and helps alleviate discomfort on the skin post-waxing. Allantoin soothes and protects the skin, promoting healing and reducing irritation caused due to waxing. Vitamin C is an antioxidant and promotes skin healing and helps brighten the waxed skin.

[0030] The chillable gel pack 102 is washable for re-use and can remain frozen for up to 30 minutes at room temperature. The outer covering 120 of the chillable gel pack 102 is transparent, eco-friendly, skin friendly, and does not cause irritation and promotes cooling of the skin to which the chillable gel pack 102 is in direct contact.
