  • Best brand

    5 out of 5

    Vicks is the best brand for balms helping with cold and flu we are using since i was a child and now i am using it for my daughter. Its an emotion not just a brand


  • scent

    5 out of 5

    the scent of this reminds me of when I was a child. I now use it on my kids when they are snuffly and also use it myself. It works well to unblock my nose and help me sleep.

    Love Vicks I live by it when my babies are sick


  • Strong smell works wonders

    4.5 out of 5

    Vicks chest rub is perfect to help clear the nose but not too strong on sensitive noses when sick, We use the old wives tale of rubbing on the feet and then socks and seems to work wonders


  • Breathe easy

    4.5 out of 5

    Vicks Chest Rub VapoRub is a product that i have been using since a very young age. When i was sick as a child, my Mum used to rub it into my chest and my back. As a teenager, she used to use it to massage my hands when i had headaches. Needless to say, i will be doing the same for my little cherub.

    4 out of 5

    I’ve used this from a child and I like the smell and if your got a cold rubbing on your chest and around your neck helps you feel better. I’ve noticed it doesn’t feel the same so think they have done something to it.


  • Perfect

    5 out of 5

    Perfect for kids and winter. It goes with blocked nose or a simple cough. Everybody in the family uses it. Better than vaporiser in my opinion as effect last longer

    4.5 out of 5

    I cannot remember not having Vicks in the cupboard, even as a child mum would rub Vicks on our chest, back and on the bottom of our feet as soon as it looked like we were getting a cold. I still do it.


  • Fantastic for Growing pains

  • Excellent

    5 out of 5

    Have used Vicks since I was a child. It is really soothing when you have a cold or blocked nose. The only downside is that is is really strong smelling and ends up on everything from clothes to bedding.


  • Breathe easy

    5 out of 5

    Any time anyone is sick in this house, the Vick’s comes out. It works a treat, especially on the soles of your feet and covered in a pair of socks, and on your chest of course


  • Vapors at work

    5 out of 5

    Childhood memories of having my chest rubbed with Vicks Vaporub, and I’m still using it. The smell of those vapors going to work is intoxicating. A bit of Vicks Vaporub rubbed on the chest will relieve a blocked nose or tight chest making it easier to breath. Also, rub a bit on the soles of the feet, slip on a pair of socks and let the Vaporub work it’s magic overnight.


  • Love it

    5 out of 5

    This product really works. Also, try putting some on the soles of your feet before bed. I don’t know how it works but it does!

    5 out of 5

    It’s a classic for a reason – Everyone I know uses vicks; it’s to go to when there are coughs and colds. Not only does it help you breath, the smell instantly remind you of home, cuddles and being cared for


  • A must for congestion relief

    4.5 out of 5

    Used on the whole family – my husband and I used Vicks Chest Rub Vacorub since we were children, and we’ve used it with our son. It helps clear up a stuffy nose to breathe better, and just so soothing rubbed onto your chest. Not too strong to apply near your nostrils to clear up the blocked nose.

    We always have Vicks chest rub in the house, no exception it works every single time and it’s the most reliable item we stock in our medicine cupboard.


  • Family favourite

    5 out of 5

    Vicks has been around for so long. It’s great to help with breathing when a cold strikes. Smear it on the chest and back. I even rub it into the feet and put heavy socks on at bedtime. It’s good as a steam inhaler too. Mix a little in hot water.


  • Always in fashion

    4.5 out of 5

    Vicks has been around so long it’s an intergenerational thing. My grandparents used, my parents and now myself as a parent. I still put it on my chest when I am very sick. Great for clearing hte airways.


  • A neccesity for the bedside table

    4.5 out of 5

    I have a jar of vaporub that is always kept next to my bedside . Whenever I have a headcold , cough or a stuffy nose this product does the trick in relieving symptoms rapidly and is great for the whole family and especially for children . A traditional remedy that actually works and the menthol and vapours are a great combination .


  • Good old-fashioned Vicks

    5 out of 5

    I always have Vicks Vaporub in the cupboard and as a child we used it too. it is one of those medicines which have stood the test of time and because it works really well and you feel is safe for kids and adults. I sometimes add a bit to some hot water for a inhaler if I have a really stuffy nose and it really helps.


  • A must have

    5 out of 5

    Does this product ever go off? It’s one of those things that seem to be in the cupboard for years, makes a huge appearance in the winter months then goes dormant again for another year and yet works as effectively the next winter! It’s awesome!
    Its especially awesome for tackling persisting coughs. Rub on the soles of feet before going to bed and pop socks on. Guaranteed a good nights sleep for all as it amazingly stops persistsng coughs associated with a cold/flu for at least 6hrs. Great for kids.


  • Still love this product.

    5 out of 5

    There’s nothing like the smell of Vicks vapour rub, the fresh smell makes you feel better by morning, great for chest coughs and blocked up runny noses. A must for the bathroom cupboard.


  • Very effective

    5 out of 5

    Wonderful product. My kids hate medicine, so not having to swallow something yuk is a bonus. It’s easy to apply, & is extremely effective. I always have this on hand in our house.


  • My stuffy nose go-to!

    5 out of 5

    Vicks Chest Rub is the best! It’s the first thing I grab when my kids or I are stuffed up. I put it straight on my chest, but my kids I rub it into a singlet under their clothes as it’s quite strong – hence its effectiveness.
