Indian God Lotion

Indian God Lotion is a small topical spray lotion for men made by Solstice. It combines extract of cnidium fruit (She Chuang Zi), a classic Chinese herb, with fragrances and aromatic oils such as peppermint and cinnamon. Each bottle holds 3 ml and sits inside a metal outer casing. It is for external use only and should never be swallowed.

The active ingredients are isopropyl alcohol, fragrances, water, and cnidium seeds. The inactive ingredients are peppermint oil, cinnamon, tea oil, licorice, and scutellaria root. Because it contains alcohol along with aromatic oils like cinnamon and peppermint, it can feel strong on sensitive skin, so it is best to start with a small amount.

Open the outer metal casing and, holding the bottle upright, spray a thin layer onto the local area of skin. Allow about 30 minutes for the lotion to absorb before deciding whether to apply more. First-time users should use only a little, since the right amount varies from person to person and starting small keeps you from overdoing it.

The most common reason is the angle of the bottle. The spray vessel must stay vertical while you press it, or it will not dispense correctly. Make sure the outer metal casing is fully open and hold the bottle straight up. If you tilt it sideways or upside down, little or no lotion will come out.

Each 3 ml bottle holds about 16 sprays on average. A little goes a long way, so start with a single light spray rather than several. Waiting around 30 minutes before reapplying helps the bottle last longer and keeps you from using more than you need.

Yes, a patch test is a sensible first step. Spray a small amount on the inside of your forearm and wait a day to see whether any redness, itching, or irritation develops. The lotion contains isopropyl alcohol, cinnamon, and peppermint oil, which can bother sensitive skin. Stop using it if you notice irritation, and keep it away from your eyes and any broken skin.

Indian God Lotion is for external use only and must be kept away from children. Do not use it on broken, irritated, or sensitive skin, and stop if any reaction occurs. Anyone with a known allergy to cinnamon, peppermint, licorice, or fragrance ingredients should avoid it. If you have a skin condition or are under a doctor's care, ask your doctor or a licensed practitioner before using it.

Cnidium fruit, known in pinyin as She Chuang Zi, is a small seed that has been part of the Chinese herbal tradition for centuries. It is especially well known for external use, often in washes and topical preparations for the skin. In Indian God Lotion it is combined with aromatic oils and fragrance in an alcohol base to make a light topical spray.
