    Great product!

    When cough and cold season hits, I always reach for the Vicks! Although I dont care for the smell, I have no doubt that it works. Even when your so congested that you cant breath, you can still smell it immediately which is absolute proof of its strength. There is just something about it thats calming, and it works immediately, unlike other medication that take time for your body to process. I doubt that there many people out there who doesnt have a container of this stuff in their medicine cabinet, and its just one of those go to things that we have all come to rely on!

    My first choice for chest congestion

    I’ve been using Vick’s to treat mild chest congestion for years. It feels soothing on the chest and really helped me sleep as a child. The scent is strong and it kicks in immediately.

    Easier to breathe

    Thank goodness for this little blue tub. Honestly not only does it help with chest congestion but it helps with nasal congestion and nausea. I like to keep the tub open on my bedside table when I’m sick. The only downside is the stickyness. Make sure you’re not wearing your best shirt. Other than that great!

    I can breath

    Been using Vicks for years. I remember being a wee one having a runny nose and mom going to get the vicks. She'd put it on our chest, and then add some to boiling hot water for us to drape our faces over. Worked great then, still does now.

    don't leave home without it

    I take Vicks vaporub with me every time I travel. It prevents my nose and throat from getting dry and scratchy, especially on airplanes. I also use it daily during our dry winter months.

    Vaporub

    I find this product to be gentle, yet still does the trick. When cold season comes, I just place a bit on my chest and under my nose, and Wallah! I can partially breathe again. This product is definitely recommended during cold season.

    Good for colds

    I recently used this when I had a cold and it helped more than I thought it would. I always doubted how well Vicks worked after I tried it the first time a few years ago and it did nothing. My little sister swears by it so I decided to give it a try. The smell is good for helping with a blocked nose and it is also soothing when your head feels sore from a sinus infection. I have heard this works really well too if it is applied to your feet. You don't need to use a lot but make sure to put enough that you get a good coating on your chest so you can smell it. This can be purchased at Walmart.

    Vicks Vapo Rub works wonders. Whether i have a cold, or just a pesky cough at night, it is amazing. I always have it by my bedside just incase. There are also so many other creative things you can do with it, soothe bug bites etc.
