With the cold season upon us these will become a staple in your house!

You place them on the floor of the shower and the water will activate them releasing a nice vapor. Make sure you don’t place it directly in the water stream because that will cause it to melt too quickly.

  • Save

Wonderful soothing relief from cold and flu symptoms!

You can also use essential oils in place of vapor rub, they can also be beneficial.

I’ve used rosemary, even lavender. They’re both known to help with stress relief

  • Save

They’re super simple to make, So many different versions for so many different uses.

I had the flu a couple months back and you know how terrible that can be, It was the longest week and a half of my life!

  • Save

They’re great to have on hand whenever sickness pops up! It will really help clear up your air ways!

If you want to use essential oil in this recipe in place of the vapor rub, You’ll want to use at least twenty drops of the oil of your choice. You can buy the soap coloring here-> SOAP COLORING LINK
