My wife has had a tingling of the lips, mouth and tongue on first use of a new tube. I compared the ingredients and they are markedly different. Also the new tube was made in the UK while the previous one was made in Thailand. Both were purchased at Pak N Save. Also the new tube contained 100gms while the previous was 110gms.
Interested to hear if anyone else noticed the difference.
Cheers
