    Love it. We always have at least 5 tubs of it at the house. It is great on the bottom of your feet to pull toxins out, your chest and back to loosen up the phlegm as well as the back of your neck to heat it up and make the muscles not so stiff. makes sleeping much easier. we all love it

    This product does add some relief towards sore throats and opens the nose when you have a cold. Over all not a bad product.

    What do you think, have you tried it?

    Vicks is a must in our house, during flu/winter season. It works great on stuffy noses and congestion. The scent is soothing. I rub it under my kids feet and put their socks on, it works well. It is expensive but a jar lasts a long time.

    I love Vicks Vapo Rub! My family has used this for generations, I have learned to use it at the first signs of a cold coming on, rub it on chest, throat and back, it speeds the recovery process so much. It stops the coughing so you can get some sleep and I love the smell and the cooling feeling. I have heard rubbing it on your feet and putting wool socks on is also beneficial but have never tried that because I can not sleep in socks. I am not even sure what this stuff costs but whatever it is it is worth every penny. A jar lasts for years.

    Okay, I may have reviewed this already, but I just have to let my emotions be known about how amazing Vicks really is. I used it all Winter, and it helped me breathe better, not get congested, and overall moisturized my nostrils. The smell of menthol, eucalyptus, and camphor just make you feel so soothed, and relaxed. It can be used to just induce sleepiness - which is exactly what I would do!
    Now into Spring and Summer will be approaching soon, Summer Solstice is June 21st, I find myself still using it every night, because it works to clear congestion and help my breathing even in the warmer weather and the dry, humid air.
    I love this product! I even have the Vicks Inhaler, the VapoDrops, and the Vaporizer. But I shall save those reviews for another page :-)

    We have been using this VicksVapour, for many years not. I find it to be stronger than Mentholadiam. I use this product mostly for when we have a cold, and lung problems. I put a dab on the end of my nose to aid in my breathing. I also get my back rubbed to loosen a lung plug. I believe this product is worth the $19.99 that I get at a Shoppers Drug Mart. The texture is petroleum like, white thick grass in column seems to glide on easy enough.

    When rubbing Vicks on your chest or someone's back, it is hard to wash off your hand. Yuk! That was the only downside to VicksVapour Rub.
