Can I use this gel-balm on my face or neck?

No, this gel-balm is specifically designed for use on the body, not the face or neck. The skin on the face and neck is thinner and more sensitive, and the red pepper extract's warming effect would likely be too intense and potentially irritating. The product formulation is also thicker than a typical facial product and is not intended for these delicate areas.

For a warming sensation after facial tension or exercise, it is better to look for a cosmetic specifically formulated for facial use, often labeled as a face mask or serum with a mild warming component. The HERBAL TRADITIONS gel-balm is most suitable for application on larger body areas like shoulders, upper and lower back, legs, arms, and the soles of the feet after sports or physical strain. These areas can better tolerate the product's texture and the warming effect of the pepper extract. Always wash your hands thoroughly after use to avoid accidentally transferring any residue to your face.
