This is the stuff I use. It's made by the same folks who make absorbine jr. It is a jell and has a pleasant smell like spearmint chewing gum.
DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES USE THE "FULL STRENGTH BRANDS" They will remove skin. A woman I know had a sore back and her husband brought some full strength stuff home. It is a liquid like water. She lay on the bed face down while he poured it on the lower part of her back. Like water this liquid tends to run down hill. Can't tell you exactly where it went, but they are no longer married.
Liberals are like a "Slinky". Totally useless, but somehow ya can't help but smile when you see one tumble down a flight of stairs!
