Ever wondered what X-ZONE is actually doing when you apply it?
We think of it as a 2-step action.

💥 STEP 1 — The sensation.
Ingredients such as Menthol and Camphor create X-ZONE's distinctive cooling/warming sensation on the skin.
That sensory effect is one of the first things you'll notice after applying X-ZONE — and why you'll often hear customers describe it as “icy hot.”
💥STEP 2 — The herbal actives.
While you're experiencing that topical sensation, X-ZONE's blend of active ingredients — including our New Zealand native botanicals — gets to work as part of the formulation.

Our three Rub formulations have also been independently laboratory tested for their effect on inflammatory response.
So, when you feel that characteristic X-ZONE sensation, there's much more to the formulation than simply hot and cold.
Sensation first. Herbal actives behind it.
That's the X-ZONE 2-step approach.

Don't wait until you're really sore before reaching for X-ZONE.

In our last video, we talked about pain being an important signal from your body.
So what do you do when you first start noticing that familiar ache or discomfort?
Our approach is simple: act early.

If you know certain activities tend to leave you sore — whether that's gardening, a long walk, a gym session, sport or a physically demanding day — you can also apply X-ZONE before or around that activity, rather than always waiting until afterwards.

And if discomfort does start to develop, we recommend applying X-ZONE early and reapplying as directed, rather than waiting until you're really uncomfortable.

💥 Listen to your body.
💥 Recognise your usual triggers.
💥 Apply X-ZONE early.
💥 Reapply according to the product directions.
Sometimes the best time to respond to discomfort is before it has a chance to really get in your way.

Don't wait until you're really sore.

Pain isn't just an inconvenience — it's your body's way of telling you something.

Whether it comes on suddenly after an injury or develops gradually over time, pain is an important signal that something needs attention.

And while our natural reaction can be to push through it or ignore it, sometimes the better approach is to listen to what your body is telling you and respond early.

At X-ZONE, our goal isn't simply about helping people manage discomfort. It's about helping people keep moving, stay active and continue doing the things they love.

Because when pain starts getting in the way of movement, sleep and everyday life, its impact can reach far beyond the original sore spot.

Listen to your body. Don't ignore the signal.

And in our next video, we'll explain why we recommend applying X-ZONE early rather than waiting until you're really sore.

Are you using enough X-ZONE? 💥

One of the questions we're often asked is how much X-ZONE should I apply?
Whichever format you're using, the key is to apply a generous amount to the affected area. If you're using a Rub, massage it in until absorbed.
As a general guide:
💥 Smaller area — around 2 mL, approximately ½ teaspoon of Rub or 3–4 sprays.
💥 Larger area, such as your back — around 5 mL, approximately 1 teaspoon of Rub or 8–10 sprays.
You don't need to measure it every time! These amounts simply give you an idea of what we mean when we say apply generously.
And remember — X-ZONE is designed for topical external use, so apply it where you need it.
The right X-ZONE. The right spot. A generous application.

Why does X-ZONE use so many active ingredients?

Most topical products are known for one or two hero ingredients — Arnica, Menthol, Magnesium or perhaps a particular herbal extract.
We take a different approach.
Our formulations typically combine around 12–14 active ingredients, with 31 active ingredients used across the complete X-ZONE range.
Why?
Because people are different — and so are the reasons we're sore.
Rather than asking one ingredient to do all the work, we bring together multiple botanicals and other actives, each selected for a particular role within the formulation.

💥 Around 12–14 actives per formulation.
💥 11 New Zealand native botanicals across the range.
💥 Traditional Western herbs alongside NZ natives.
💥 Three X-ZONE Rub formulations independently laboratory tested.

It's also why you'll find different combinations in RELIEF, JOINTS and SPORTS — each formulation has been developed for a different need.

Not one hero ingredient. A team of them.

Meet Pukatea — one of the remarkable New Zealand native plants behind X-ZONE.

Pukatea (Laurelia novae-zelandiae) has a long history of traditional use in rongoā Māori, including for pain and discomfort.
One of the things that makes Pukatea particularly fascinating is a naturally occurring alkaloid called pukateine, which has been studied for its analgesic properties.
It's one of the reasons we chose Pukatea as an active botanical in both our JOINTS and SPORTS formulations.

But how it's harvested matters too.
Pukatea bark has traditionally been used to create extracts, but stripping bark directly from the tree can damage it. That's why our supplier never strips the living tree.
Instead, a branch is carefully pruned and the bark is harvested from that branch — allowing the tree itself to remain and continue growing.
For us, using New Zealand native botanicals also means respecting the plants they come from.

💥 One of 11 NZ native botanicals used across X-ZONE
💥 Traditionally used in rongoā Māori
💥 Included in X-ZONE JOINTS & SPORTS
💥 Sustainably harvested.

Nature has given New Zealand some extraordinary plants. We believe they should be treated with care too.

Rub, Roll-On or Spray — which should you choose?
Sometimes it’s not just about choosing the right X-ZONE range — it’s also about choosing the best way to apply it.

Our RELIEF and SPORTS ranges come in three easy-to-use formats:
💥 RUB — great for larger areas and when you want to massage the product into tired or sore muscles. Our rubs contain Cocoa Butter, giving you more slip for massage.
💥 ROLL-ON — convenient, portable and hands-free. Perfect for targeted areas and easy to keep in your handbag, gym bag or car.
💥 SPRAY — ideal for larger or hard-to-reach areas, such as your back, where rubbing product in isn't always practical.

The formulations contain many of the same key active ingredients — we've simply created different bases and application methods to suit different situations.
And whichever format you choose, X-ZONE products are vegan and cruelty-free.
Same X-ZONE philosophy. Different ways to use it.

You don't have to take our word for it.
When we developed X-ZONE, it was important to us that our products didn't just sound good because they contained natural ingredients — we wanted scientific validation too.

So, we sent our three X-ZONE Rub formulations to Trinity Bioactives, an independent laboratory in Wellington, New Zealand, to test their effect on inflammatory response.
The results:

💥 RELIEF Rub — 42.7% reduction
💥 JOINTS Rub — 48.1% reduction
💥 SPORTS Rub — 54.1% reduction

For us, these results were an important validation of our approach: combining a high number of carefully selected active ingredients, including New Zealand native botanicals, in targeted formulations.

Because we don't believe you should have to choose between nature and science.

Lab tested. Powered by plants.

Meet X-ZONE Sports, our highest-strength range, developed for athletes, gym-goers and active people — as well as anyone experiencing higher levels of muscular aches and pain.
The Sports formulation is packed with active ingredients, including 5 New Zealand native botanicals (Harakeke, Kūmarahou, Kōwhai, Pukatea and Pūriri), alongside ingredients chosen to support hardworking muscles before and after activity.
💥 Our strongest X-ZONE range
💥 For active bodies & higher pain levels
💥 5 New Zealand native botanicals
💥 Sports Rub independently tested to reduce inflammation by 54.1% — the highest result of our three tested rubs.
And despite the name, you don't have to be an athlete to use X-ZONE Sports. If you prefer a stronger formulation, Sports may be the X-ZONE for you.
