A few weeks ago I posted about making Deodorant and Lip Balm... I mentioned that I would be making some with Eucalyptus for the next time one of us get sickly.
Well Veg started with the sniffles today and I thought it would be great to have something moisturizing to put under his nose that would also help him breath. And So I made my Vapor'ish Lip Balm...
Not really for the lips but to put on his Back, Chest, Feet and under his nose as needed.... Of course all he has is the sniffles, so none of that is needed. But I'm prepared just in case!!
Using the Lip Balm Recipe and instead of Sweet Orange Oil, I used 18 drops of Eucalyptus Oil and 2 drops of Tea Tree Oil. If I had some mint, I would have thrown that in to... But it is perfect. I rubbed some on my chest, then pulled the collar of my shirt up over nose to absorb the vapors. (leaving the rest of the shirt on, of course) I don't even have the sniffles, but I just wanted to try it :-)
Also had to make sure there were no skin reactions before putting on Veg since we both have Uber Sensitive skin. But 4 hrs later, I can still smell it, and my skin is soft too. :-) Think I'll be using that even when I'm not sick just because it smells good. BUT... Probably don't want to wear it in the office or people may steer clear... Although maybe thats a good thing??
