Vick's Vapor Rub

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone,

 

I apologize for the cross post but do not

remember which list the question came from.

 

A while back someone had misplaced thier recipe

for an alternative to Vick's. I found this one

among some of my old files and thought I would

send it along. I do not remember where the

original receipe came from and I hope I have not

stepped on anyone's toes by posting it here.

 

1/2 Cup S. Almond Oil

1/4 Cup Olive Oil

2 oz Beeswax

1/2 tsp Peppermint

1/4 tsp Rosemary

1/2 tsp Eucalyptus ( I would choose the species

dependent on who it is for - elderly & children

E. smithii.)

1/4 tsp Camphor

 

Instructions:

Melt the Beeswax, add the fixed oils stirring

well. Once blended together add the essential

oils and blend well. Pour into jars and let them

sit on the counter until they are cool then cap.

 

I also use the above essential oils as a synergy

in my aroma humidifier

 

2 drop peppermint

2 drops rosemary

2 drops E. globus (or other species)

1 drop Camphor

Thank You Cheryl, it was me. I just went and wrote the

active ingredients off a box at the drug store.

Too look through all the CD I have files on,

I figured it would take forever.

Now I can have it more current, and in a file I

can find sooner.

Have A Great Evening.
