Tom B., Dublin ★★★★★
Rub it into the knee after five-a-side, wash the hands, done. Warm first, then that minty cool. The call-back came within the hour and the parcel two days after.
Customer review
Artroflex Cream — cosmetic cream for external use.
What you get
- Warming and cooling in one application: capsicum extract and cinnamon oil give the familiar warmth, menthol and mint oil the fresh counterpoint — the classic pairing of massage creams.
- External use means no capsules and no timetable — the cream goes on when the knee, shoulder or lower back asks for it, after work, after sport or before bed.
- Grape seed oil, a light cosmetic oil, carries the blend and leaves the skin soft rather than greasy once massaged in.
- Eucalyptus oil and turpentine oil are two traditional components of warming rubs that Irish households have known for generations.
- Works alongside Artroflex Active capsules for those who want external and internal support in one pairing — cream in the evening, capsules with meals.
What is in Artroflex Cream and what is on the packaging?
Composition as published in the seller's product description. The full INCI list and any additional cosmetic ingredients are printed on the pack; VitaEuropa does not hold the label data.
Capsicum extract
Extract of chilli pepper; the component responsible for the warm sensation on the skin.
Turpentine oil
Pine-derived oil with a long history in traditional warming rubs and liniments.
Menthol
Crystalline compound from mint that gives the cool, fresh sensation on application.
Cinnamon oil
Essential oil from cinnamon bark; adds to the warming effect and the spicy scent.
Mint oil
Essential oil from peppermint leaves; fresh scent and a cooling feel alongside menthol.
Eucalyptus oil
Essential oil from eucalyptus leaves, familiar from chest rubs and steam inhalations.
Grape seed oil
Light cosmetic carrier oil pressed from grape seeds; helps the cream spread and absorb.
How is Artroflex Cream taken and when does it make sense?
The seller does not publish an application schedule in the product description — follow the directions printed on the pack. Creams of this kind are applied in a thin layer to clean, dry skin over the joint and massaged in with circular movements until absorbed. Wash your hands after use and keep the cream away from eyes, mouth and broken skin.
Who Artroflex Cream is designed for
Artroflex Cream is written for the adult whose joints and muscles earn their keep: the farmer climbing in and out of the tractor, the nurse on a twelve-hour shift, the club footballer whose knee is the first thing he notices on a Sunday morning, the grandmother whose shoulder complains after lifting the grandchildren.
It is a cosmetic cream for external use — a warming and cooling massage cream in the tradition of the liniments Irish households kept in the hot press, with capsicum and cinnamon for warmth and menthol, mint and eucalyptus for the fresh counterpoint, carried in light grape seed oil.
It is not for children, for broken skin or for use under a heat pad. Anyone under treatment for a diagnosed joint condition brings the pack to their doctor before adding it, and anyone with sensitive skin tests a small patch on the forearm first.
- Adults who want a warming massage cream for knees, hips, back and shoulders after exertion
- People who prefer something to apply in the evening rather than a capsule to swallow
- Anyone who likes ordering by phone call-back and paying when the parcel arrives
Fitting the cream into an ordinary Irish evening
Most people reach for the cream at two moments: straight after the activity that made the joint noticeable — the match, the garden, the long drive — and in the evening before bed, when the body is still and the warmth is most noticeable. A pea-sized amount for a knee, a little more for the lower back, massaged in with circular strokes until the skin has taken it.
Hands are washed straight afterwards, because capsicum on a fingertip finds its way to an eye with remarkable reliability. The cream absorbs quickly enough to pull on pyjamas or a tracksuit without staining, and the menthol-eucalyptus scent fades to a faint freshness within a short while.
Shift workers and early risers use the same logic in reverse — a quick application before the shift for a shoulder that stiffens in the cold van. The pack is small enough to live in a kit bag, a glovebox or the bathroom cabinet.
How long a pack lasts and how many to order
A thin layer is all the cream needs, so a single pack covers many applications; how many depends on whether you treat one knee or a whole lower back and how often. The seller prints the quantity on the pack and the consultant quotes it on the call.
People who use the cream daily through the sports season or the gardening season often take two packs at once — one for the bathroom, one for the kit bag — so that running out never happens mid-season. Whether a multi-pack price applies is confirmed by the consultant on the day.
There is no subscription and nothing is sent automatically. When the pack runs low, you order again through the same form, and the price agreed on that call is what you hand to the courier.
Artroflex Cream versus Artroflex Active capsules and ordinary heat rubs
Artroflex Active is the capsule from the same range, built on glucosamine, chondroitin, collagen and plant extracts, taken with meals. The cream is the external partner: applied where the joint is, felt within minutes, washed off the hands straight after. Many people in Ireland use both — capsules at lunch and dinner, cream in the evening.
Against the generic heat rubs of the supermarket shelf, Artroflex Cream names seven components and pairs warming with cooling in one formula rather than relying on a single heat agent. Grape seed oil as the carrier makes it lighter on the skin than the heavy petroleum bases of older liniments.
Against patches and sprays, a cream lets you control the amount and the area exactly and doubles as a massage medium — the rubbing-in is part of the use, not a chore.
- Cream: external, applied where needed, felt within minutes
- Capsules: internal, with meals, three a day
- Combined: capsules by day, cream in the evening
How ordering and delivery work in Ireland
The order form asks for a name and a phone number and nothing more. No account, no password, no card details online. The seller's consultant rings back, confirms the order, repeats the price of €49 per pack, asks how many packs you want and takes the delivery address.
Delivery is by courier within the Republic of Ireland. The consultant tells you the delivery cost and the expected window for your county during the same call, so the amount at the door is the amount you agreed. Payment is on receipt, cash or card, and the parcel is plain with no product name outside.
VitaEuropa is an independent information site for affiliates. We are neither the maker nor the seller of Artroflex Cream; the form and the button lead to the seller's order process, and we may receive a commission on completed orders. The crossed-out €98 beside the €49 is the seller's promotional pricing and may change.
- Form: name and phone number only
- Call-back: price, pack count and address confirmed by the consultant
- Delivery: courier within the Republic of Ireland, pay on receipt
Important information
Artroflex Cream is for adults and for external use only. Capsicum, menthol and essential oils produce a noticeable warm-cool sensation; test a small area first if your skin is sensitive, and do not use under tight bandages or with a heat pad. Not for use on broken, irritated or freshly shaved skin, near the eyes or on mucous membranes. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or you have a diagnosed joint condition under treatment, ask your doctor before use. Keep away from children.

Rosemary K., Cork ★★★★★
Absorbs quickly and does not leave grease on the pyjamas. I use a small amount on the shoulder in the evening. The pack is compact and the courier was on time.
Customer review
Jack D., Galway ★★★★★
Smells of eucalyptus and mint, which I like — reminds me of the rubs my grandmother kept. Ordering was simple, price confirmed first thing on the call.
Customer review
Patricia M., Limerick ★★★★★
Nice cream and a tidy pack, but the courier was a day later than the window I was given. The warmth is noticeable, so a thin layer is plenty.
Customer review
Dan F., Waterford ★★★★★
Paying at the door was the reason I ordered. No card online, just a phone call and a parcel. Use it on the lower back after the tractor. Washes off the hands easily.
Customer review
Angela R., Drogheda ★★★★★
Got two packs, one for the bathroom and one for the gym bag. The consultant explained the thin-layer thing without being asked. Plain parcel, quick delivery to Louth.
Customer review
Brian W., Dundalk ★★★★★
The warm-then-cool feeling is exactly what the page described. Massaging it in takes a minute. Ordering took thirty seconds and the courier rang ahead.
Customer review
Josephine H., Sligo ★★★★★
The scent is stronger than I expected and lingers on the hands for a bit. Washing twice sorts it. The ordering and delivery were fine, consultant was pleasant.
Customer review
Pat C., Kilkenny ★★★★★
Second pack. Same price as the first and the same quick call. I use it on the knee before bed and the hands are clean by the time I turn the light off.
Customer review
Annette L., Athlone ★★★★★
Small pack, fits the handbag. The cream spreads easily and a little goes a long way. The courier rang before arriving, which I appreciated.
Customer review
Gerard T., Tralee ★★★★★
Good cream, warm without being fierce. The courier left a card because I was out and I collected the next day — my own fault. Would order again.
Customer review
Fiona N., Navan ★★★★★
Clear directions on the pack, a consultant who listened, delivery on the day promised. I rub it into my shoulder after lifting the grandchildren. No bother.
