The media could not be loaded. I've been suffering from allergies for as long as I can remember, my sinuses are terrible and I constantly get sinus infections. These last few years have been especially terrible, I wake up with sinus headaches and everything seems to aggravate my allergies. I also seem to have a nose like a dog, I always seem to smell things no one else can and these things easily trigger migraines for me. I've tried many things over the years. I take my prescription nasal spray and an antihistamine religiously, use nasal rinses and saline sprays. I sometimes wear a mask to defend against allergens and have air purifiers running constantly. I even started using a nasal spray with cayenne (hot pepper) to aggressively clear out the congestion. I am so grateful I came across these Vapor Soothers and gave them a try. It gives me such long lasting relief and has drastically cut down on the other remedies I normally resort to. After trying the first one, I was finally able to rest well throughout the night and woke up without even a trace of a headache. My husband woke up sniffling and blowing his nose as usual. I took a deep breath through my nose and showed off to him how completely clear it was. So he decided to try it too and was amazed at how soothing it was. The clip is really easy to put in and take out, but stays in good once it's in. It's also very comfortable, I often even forget I'm wearing it and I'm usually sensitive to things like that. It's truly discreet as well, I hardly ever notice it when my husband's wearing one. I notice it a little more on my nose for some reason, but I just like to pretend it's a cute little nose ring and don't mind at all. Sometimes if we're already congested when we put one in, the congestion will break up and we'll have to take it out to blow our nose a few times before it clears up. That just shows how well it works, and once it's clear it remains clear for as long as we keep the clip in. Soothing is a perfect word for it. I got the peppermint one and it blends very well with the menthol to keep my breath feeling cool. As an added benefit, I've noticed the peppermint does work well to stave off hunger so I snack less in-between meals. I take mine out before eating anything. When I do feel like taking a break from it, I store mine in a small plastic bag so I wont lose it and to keep it fresh and lasting longer. It does slowly weaken over time but easily lasts the advertised 14 hours, usually longer for me. It starts out strong and occasionally it does sting the underneath of my nose a bit, but only for the first few minutes and because I have very sensitive skin. It's still not bad at all and certainly beats spraying extract from hot peppers up my nose. I'd say it's well worth it. And finally, I don't have to suffer other strange smells anymore. When the clip is in, that's all I can smell and it's such a relief. Overall I'm in love with this product and can't wait to try out the other scents too. I'd also like to add that ScentTech's customer service is awesome. They responded quickly to my problem and more than made up for the little mistake. So I'm a very happy customer. Read more

It works perfectly and it lasts the whole day and the size is perfect that no one can tell. Easy to use and and doesn’t irritate your skin unless you have some certain allergy to the ingredients. I would recommend getting these. Read more

They’re a little pinchy when worn, but they do their job. I work in a hospital and sometimes use these in the ED. They’re effective at blocking all sorts of unpleasant smells for me without affecting the people around me. However, they're quite pricey, thus the 1 star deduction. Read more

Wow! This product is great! I had minor cold and stuffed nose and relief was almost instant and made me breath easy and have fun at two kids bday parties in one day! The night ones stopped me from snoring according to my husband. That might be a lie, I dont think I was snoring in a first place but whatever… it smells good too! Read more

This makes for a very unique and amazing something to use when you need to clear out your channels due to allergies or colds. It is absolutely strong enough to do this, and it does last quite a while, which is nice. 1) (However), if you are looking for something in the realm of "soothing", this may not work out so well for you as it does burn the skin it makes contact with, inside of the nose. We made sure to have others try to make sure it isn't just a personal reaction. It does go down over time as your nose becomes desensitized and the potency slowly decreases. 2) If you have nose hair, we highly recommend you give your nose a nice fresh shave first. Unless you are able to put up with an endless fit of torture as it tickles the inside of your nose until you just can't take it anymore. For the aromatherapy value of this product, the strength is enough to clear your sinuses with, and the number you get in the package...we like this product. It's now sitting in the break room for those who need some nasal relief (post corona scares of course as for awhile I'm sure people will just be sent home [off topic]). The only thing that brought the score down is that burn. That burn is distracting when it comes to wanting to be soothed and relaxed. **If you have found our review helpful, please vote it as helpful below so we know.

I honestly did not know what to expect when I ordered these. I suffer from daily congestion and when I ordered these I was in a desperate state of pain and wanting to put an end to the sinus pain I was experiencing. This was one of the items I chose. So... the little box arrives and inside is a blister pack of little silicone-type U-shaped things. On each end is a little ball that is inserted into your nose and there's a strip that goes across your nose to keep them together. When I punched it out of the blister pack, I immediately smelled peppermint. I put it in my nose, inhaled deeply, and I could breathe. The peppermint essential oils release into my nostrils, opening up my nasal passages. The tiny balls help to open my nasal passages up a little more, for air flow. I walked around my house and no one could even tell I had anything in my nose until I told them. In fact, right as I am typing this, I am sitting in my office at work and no one can tell I have them in. The strip that goes across your nose is so small, you can't hardly tell. Last night I slept with one in. It stayed in all night and it wasn't uncomfortable and didn't hinder my sleep in any way. For me, it helped me sleep since I could breathe easier. So now I want a set of every scent - the Lavender, the cinnamon and I think the other one is Wintergreen. I want to have these always in hand for congestion, or to help me sleep, or both. I can't wait to try the other scents. Thank you, Vapor Soothers. I'm now a big fan! Read more
