Shea butter serves as the base for homemade Vicks. It is gentle on the skin.
Eucalyptus essential oil unclogs the airways and has an anti-bacterial action.
Lavender officinalis is also anti-bacterial, but also has a soothing virtue to help you get a good night's sleep.
Finally, pine essential oil is expectorant, anti-bacterial and revivifying. It therefore stimulates healing.
Combining all these effects, cold symptoms won't last long!
This homemade Vicks Vaporub recipe is not suitable for pregnant women, children under 10, and people with allergies to essential oils.
