Now that the weather is changing daily on us I have gotten a cold. I could not breath very well in the evening so a fiend of mine suggested I try Johnson & Johnson Soothing Vapor Bath. I am glad I did. Johnson & Johnson makes this product so we know it is made by a good company. The bottle holds 15 fluid ounces of the bath. The bottle is like many other Johnson & Johnson bottles, made easily to fit your hand and easy to open. The top has a flip up lid. It seals back easily also.
The directions are as follows:
This product is recommended for children 3 months and older. For an infant bathtub us only 1 capful. If you are using a full size or regular bathtub use 3 capfuls into the baby's warm water. You can swirl the tub to evenly distribute the bath product but I have found that if you put it in while the water is first running it mixes up quite nicely. On a more personal note I used 5 capfuls for myself. The vapors filled the bathroom. I felt like I was in a menthol sauna. I closed the shower curtain and kept the vapors closer to me. The bath product also works well in the sink as an easy way to to do a quick vaporizer if you do not own one. Just fill the sink with hot water, add 3 capfuls of Johnson & Johnson Soothing Vapor Bath to the water. Take a towel and put it over your head as you lean over the sink. It works wonders to help you breath better. Remember your mom telling you to turn the shower on with hot water, close the bathroom door and just sit and take in the steam? Just plug the tub and add a few capfuls of the Vapor Bath to the water as the shower hits it. This also makes a nice sauna to just sit in too when you are all backed up.
The ingredients are as follows:
Water, PEG-80 Sorbitan Laurate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Sodium Trideceth Sulfate, Sodium Chloride, Fragrance (Eucalyptus Oil, Menthol, Rosemary Oil), Sodium Laureth-13 Carboxylate, Disodium Lauroamphodiacetate, Glycerin, Quaternium-15, PEG-150 Distearate, Tetrasodium Edta.
This and all other Johnson & Johnson products are made in the USA.
