“With Tylenol Precise we’re proud to deliver the topical formula our customers requested — one that fits their lifestyles by providing targeted pain relief both seamlessly and discreetly,” Adam Ricciardone, vice president of global self-care research and development at Kenvue, said in the release.
Nearly 40% of consumers dislike the way topical solutions smell and feel, according to the press release, which led Kenvue to develop Tylenol Precise, a rapid-absorbing cream designed with a rollerball for hands-free application. The topical treatment is available in a fresh scent or fragrance-free.
