Homemade Vicks Vapor Rub
Homemade Vicks Vapor Rub
Many people choose to avoid Vicks because of chemicals and artificial ingredients that they would rather not put on their child's or their own delicate skin, but you must admit the stuff is awesome at relieving coughs and colds, so try this homemade version instead!
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons beeswax
25-30 drops of eucalyptus essential oil
20-25 drops rosemary essential oil
10-15 drops lavender essential oil
Melt the olive oil & beeswax in a small saucepan on low heat until melted, stirring with a wooden spoon. Turn off the heat & stir in the essential oils - drop by drop (keep stirring until all have been added). Pour into a small glass or metal container. Store in a cool, dry place for up to a year.
