Works well for cough relief
I usually don't care for rub ons but this one was not too bad. The vaporizing smell really seemed to help the cough.

Effective product with easy application
The vaporizing rub was very easy to apply. I loved that you didn't have to get your hands messy. It was not sticky, just oily but did absorb well into the skin. Had that nasal passage opening scent you would expect. Not an overwhelming scent, but instead pleasant and calming. Scent does fade though, so additional applications might be necessary to continue to relieve symptoms. Overall, very pleased and would purchase again.

Cough relief!
This Mentholatum Vaporizing Rub Roll On has a strong smell, which initially appealed to me, since that made me think it would be effective. It was! My favorite aspect is the no-mess applicator. I absolutely hate having coughing fits, so this is a great way to alleviate them. I would recommend the Mentholatum Vaporizing Rub Roll On to anybody who needs cough relief.

Classic and dependable, but with a new easy applicator
This new roll on is great. I disliked the old way of having to apply by hand and having to wash it off several times and still not getting it off my hands entirely. This new roll on method is great as it's no mess. I really like it.

Mentholatum Vaporizing Rub Roll On
Mentholatum Vaporizing Rub Roll On is an innovative way to address a sore throat and cough. It is a strong cough relief tool and also a suppressant topical analgesic. We found it to be effective and especially liked the mess-free roll-on applicator. We don't have to worry about harming children, as it is made with 100% natural active ingredients. Great product!

Roll on cough relief
I like the idea that this a roll on product. The smell is just what I would expect from a vaporizing rub. However, the product is a little sticky and you must cover the area where you used it, or it will just get on everything.

Non messy solution
I found this product easy to use, especially for my children who don't like messy gels/creams. It has a nice odor that seemed to really clear up stuffiness.

No more mess
I really liked the no mess roll on vaporizing rub by Mentholatum. It has all of the strength of a typical rub without the mess of applying it. I love that it has 100% natural active ingredients and feel much better about putting it on my kids. My daughter had an end of the summer cold and woke up feeling a lot better and less congested after sleeping with the roll on on her chest. I will definitely buy this product again.

Easy to use and very effective!
The Mentholatum No Mess Vaporizing Rub came just in the nick of time! The day that I received in the mail, both of my sons were coming down with snuffy noses. Both of them were able to easily apply to themselves. I liked that it went on clear and that it's 100% natural ingredients. The boys liked that they were able to do it by themselves and didn't need me to help them. Both of them reported that they were able to breath easier after applying. I also applied it to myself, although I didn't have a snuffy nose and can confirm that it goes on easily and opens up the nasal passages.

No mess, no fuss
I've always found chest rubs to be comforting when I have a cold. This format is most welcome. Why didn't anyone think of this applicator before ? Rolls on smoothly and evenly. No thick "glop" No product under fingernails (yuck) Effective!!!!

Fresh natural & easy to use!
This was a very easy product to use. Mentholatum Vaporizing Rub roll on smells invigorating. It feels natural and clean when I roll it onto my skin. I could breathe much easier after I rolled it onto my chest. I would recommend Mentholatum Vaporizing Rub roll on to everyone during this cough & cold season! :)

Mentholatum No Mess Vaporizing Rub works wonders! I used the maximum strength, and it helped my stuffy nose go away so fast!

Amazing idea!
I absolutely love this product, what a great idea! No longer do I have to use my fingers when rubbing product on my children's chest during cold and cough season. You know you have all been there where you accidentally rub your eye before you get to wash your hands. With this roll on, I never have to worry about that again. The products stays where you rolled it and there is no dripping from the bottle while rolling it on. My son loves it and so do I. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because the scent is not as strong as I would have liked. Don't get me wrong, you will smell the scent once you roll it on, but I did notice the scent fading. I love that the ingredients are 100% natural, I love the scent and I love that I don't have a mess afterwards. This is going to become a staple in my house!

Great all natural vaporizing rub!
I tried the Mentholatum vaporizing rub and I love it! It rubs on easy so there is no mess . It is not watery so it stays right where you put it. Not only does it help control coughs it helps to relieve stopped up noses!

So easy to use!
This product is something that should have been on the market years ago - an easy, no mess way to apply cough relief cream. I found this product so much easier to use than the traditional jar, especially as I am often applying it to children in the middle of the night. No more sticky hands, and I get a thinner, more even layer that is less likely to goop over everything. That said, I do have to roll it back and forth several times sometimes to apply the amount I want. I also love how this product has only 3 active ingredients, all of which are recognizable. That applies to the handful of inactive ingredients, too. I like feeling like I know what I am putting on my children. This product has the same characteristic smell and cooling feeling of the traditional vapor rub. If you are a fan of that, you definitely need to try this easier-to-apply version.

Mentholatum Vaporizing Rub
While no one in my family got sick before writing this review, the product did state in it's "Uses" that it could be used for joint pain, and this is what I tried to use it for. The container was easy to open and close and the smell was not overwhelming. Upon applying, I could start to feel a slight sensation. This product supplied relief and kind of reminded me of using Icy Hot. I hope I do not get sick, but if I do, I am sure this product will help relieve any symptoms of my cold.

Awesome New Product
I really like the Roll on. I am not in love with the smell but since it really works I guess that evens it out. I used it on my son's asthmatic cough and on my back. It gets warm but not overly warm where it is uncomfortable.

A quality product
As someone who grew up on vapor rub, I was pleasantly surprised that this roll on product worked just as well. The roll is convenient so you don't have to touch menthol and applies with ease. It was long lasting too!

Perfect Remedy

I don't want a bunch of un-necessary chemicals running through my entire body when I have a stuffy nose, or a cold. That is why Mentholatum Vaporizing Rub Roll On is my go to product as a first line of defense. I feel better after a good night's sleep because I can breathe, and when I can breathe, I sleep deeper, and awaken refreshed.

Helped with my summer cold
I thought I would not have a chance to use Mentholatum No Mess Vaporizing Rub, but all of a sudden I had a cold and some coughing. It helped me get better faster and it was very easy to use. I will surely purchase for this winter.

Good Product - But Caution
This is a great product when used with care. It arrived just in time to test w/my bout w/bronchitis and chest congestion. It is, however, a concern and should not be used for infants and small children. I found the product to help clear my nasal passages and it did help some w/my breathing.

Tried and true, now easier to apply!
The name you know and trust just got easier to put on! This no mess applicator is the best for besides. This means you don't have to get up in the middle of the night to wash your hands when tough are feeling your worst. I did find that a little goes a long way so don't over "roll"!

No mess.....and breathe easy!!
Perfect timing. Stuffed up nose from a fall cold. It is so nice to not to have to dip your fingers in a jar of mentholatum rub, a simple roll on your chest (and a bit under your nose) will help you breathe easier. Especially at night when you don't have to get up and wash your hands because you have rub on your fingers. Awesome idea.

We love it...especially my kids!
My kids (ages 9 & 13) were practically addicted to Vick's Vapor Rub. As soon as they get the sniffles or a slightly stuffed nose they want "the nose stuff". Especially at bed time. But, they don't like the goopy, sticky feeling, and I don't like the mess it leaves on my hands. This product solves them both! The only downside for me is that it is a lot of packaging for a little bit of product. The cardboard packaging could be eliminated completely and perhaps the plastic container could be smaller.

Vapor Rub without the Mess!
I have been using vapor rub with colds, coughs and sore muscles for 40 years. I have always hated the fact that you had to stick your fingers into the rub and get it all over your hand. It always left a greasy feeling on my hand that I did not like. Well, this product takes away this problem completely! You just roll it onto your chest or on your sore knee or whatever and there is nothing to wash off your hands. Great invention for a natural product to be a roll on!

No Mess Rollon
I received a free trial of Mentholatum Vaporizing Roll On and really liked it. It was easy to use and as it says on the packaging really is no mess. The Mentholatum really opened the chest and it was easier for me to breathe. I definitely would purchase this product in the future if I had a cold and was stuffy. The smell is a little strong but not enough that it caused any problems.

No Mess Mentholated what a fantastic idea
I would give this Mentholatum roll on a 10 star rating...I love the ease of use and the no mess aspect. I used to use the tub of mentholatum and I would have it all under my fingernails and all over my fingers. With this new container I was able to roll the mentholatum straight onto my chest...the vapors instantly made it easier to breathe and I felt better and felt less congestion. I did notice I was coughing less within just a few minutes of using the mentholated roll on and felt like I received relief from my cold and congestion..this item is definitely a keeper and with the new roll on packaging I will keep one in my purse for the winter. I would definitely recommend this product.

Easy breathe with no mess
This natural cough relief roll on is great because it works, works well, works without yucky sticky fingers and shirts and is pleasant smelling. I like the fact that I can put it on me and the children without nasty side affects like balloon head (from many decongestants I have taken before.)

Easy to use Chest Roll-on
Mentholatum Vaporizing Rub Roll On is an easy to use chest rub. It is very beneficial when you have a cold or cough because it is such an easy item to grab and roll on your skin instead of getting messy fingers. My preschool age child can even roll on the stick herself.

STOP THAT COUGH
Mentholatum Vaporizing Rub Roll on is a maximum strength cough relief and suppressant topical analgesic. It has a mess free roll-on applicator. When I first received this product I was very skeptical about a roll-on being able to suppress a cough. I had had a cough and cold for over a week when I started using Mentholatum Vaporizing Rub Roll. I have used it for a week and my cough has all but stopped. I was amazed at the relief that I received by using the roll-on. I could feel a soothing sensation as soon as I rubbed it onto my skin. I also enjoy just inhaling it. Mentholatum has always been a benefit that I like for opening up my sinuses as well. I highly recommend Mentholatum Vaporizing Rub Roll on to anyone that has a cough. It worked for me.

Great Cough Suppressant!
I recently tried the Mentholatum No Mess Vaporizing Rub. It works great. It was not messy to use and was very easy to apply. I used it for the cough suppressant at night. It works great! I now will keep it by my bed for those late night cough spells. I recommend Mentholatum No Mess Vaporizing Rub for anyone needing a great cough suppressant.

Mentholatum Rub review
Upon taking the cap off, the first whiff brought me back to my childhood... But without the sticky gloppy mess! I tried this for nasal congestion due to allergies and it seems to have alleviated my congestion symptoms, and helped with my sinus headache. He also tried it on some sore muscles from overdoing it during dance class and it provided some relief of my muscle soreness as well. I don't know if I would use it in public to do the menthol smell, but would certainly use it again at home.

Mentholatum provides that soothing feeling
I was feeling stuffy today and had a headache. I used my roll while at work and believe it or not, my headache went away and I could breathe. Thsi is a great product for those stuffy days. The Lavender version is great for night time.

No mess and works great.
I tested this product and loved it. The packaging was nice because I could see the product. It was a little bulky though and I think the box could be streamlined for less waste. I loved how easy it was to apply. There was no sticky residue like the other similar products. It rolls on like a deodorant. It smelled great.

Works well
I love that this is a topical medicine. Also, I like that it is a roll-on that you do not get all the gooey stuff on your hands. I do not like to take oral medicines, they make it hard for me to go about my day. Also, sometimes you need something extra to help the oral medicines when you do have to take them, but you can't take another pill. This is great stuff that will not make a mess or mess with oral medines.

Easy to Use Menthol Roll-On Stick
I'm a mom of two. When they're sick it's very convenient to have something like this on hand, especially in a roll-on form so I don't have to get it all over my hands! Mentholatum is Soooooo Sticky and goopy-it's nice to avoid that hassle! Easy to apply, smells soo nice.

Mentholatum Roll-on Easy to Use
I tried out this Mentholatum over the weekend. I do find it easy to use since it is a roll-on but that just means that I am the only one who will use it. I don't think this should be shared. Even though it was not messy I do not like the roll on because it is somewhat watery compared to the regular Mentholatum. The cover is sturdy and closes very well so there is no leakage. The packaging is very good. I prefer to use the regular Mentholatum.

Seems Great
I have not actually used the product as I have not gotten sick yet but it seems like it will work well. I like the option of using a roll on instead of taking medications. The scent is pleasing and has a mild menthol scent. It has attractive packaging and looks easy to apply.

So much nicer than the old rub in the jar!
I was pleasantly surprised to see Mentholatum in a roll-on! I have used the old rub in a jar before and it is very messy. Effective but messy. This new way to apply the rub is wonderful. It goes on smoothly and the mentholatum vapors are very soothing. I found that it works just as well as the old rub in the jar. It would be great to use on children for just that very reason. I would definitely recommend this Mentholatum roll-on to be used on both adults and children. No mess and it works well to make you feel better.

Good alternative to other products on market
Opening the roller is very easy, just twist and it comes off. Despite the roller itself being dry, once rolling it immediately dispenses product on body part. The product absorbs within a few minutes and the scent lessens as time goes on, till there is no scent at all! I'm not sick but I do have a terrible cough due to allergies and asthma (exacerbated by fall allergies) so I thought "what the heck" and tried the rub roll on for my cough. After two days, I did notice a difference in my coughing! It was occurred less often and with less intensity. The best thing...there is a $1.00 coupon on the product to purchase more!

Mentholatum No Mess Vaporizing Rub Roll On
So easy to apply - just roll it on! No more greasy mess on your fingers or clothes. 100% natural active ingredients. Smooth formula. Pleasant menthol smell, not overpowering. May have to use more frequently than with a gel type, but the 50 g. size should last a long time.

Mentholatum No Mess Vaporizing Rub
While I did not have a cough, I used this product as a topical analgesic (also recommended on package). I have a condition where I suffer chronic inflammation of my collar bone. I have used other products and decided to try this. It worked pretty well, It was a bit on the greasy side, I didn't like that. I was expecting a stronger menthol smell but it doesn't smell very strong. I think the stronger smell would help with a cough/stuffy nose. All in all, it's an okay product but I have used better.

Remembering my childhood!
Remember when you were a child and your mom would rub Vick's on your chest to help relieve your cold symptoms? Here is a less messy way to help relieve your symptoms. This mentholatum roll on rub is not greasy, but still has the same soothing smell and effect that the jelly did. Easy to use and very helpful for congested noses and chests.

Why didn't anyone think of this earlier?
This is the perfect change to a great product. Mentholatum has been helping families for a long time. A lot of people use this product but the only problem; it was messy - not any longer! No having to wash your hands after using it. Plus, after putting this on your child you would smell like Mentholatum - not any longer! A big thumbs up!

SO much better!
In exchange for my honest opinion, I was given a sample to use and review. The bottle fits well in my hand and it is easy to maneuver. The rollerball makes application quick and efficient. The aroma is as expected but not overpowering. The feel is light and non-greasy. It absorbs rather quickly, but the scent lingers. I applied a little bit to my chest before bed to help relieve some minor nasal congestion. I awoke clear and feeling like I had actually slept. As soon as this sample runs out, I will be making a purchase.

No Mess is for real
I was given this product to test from Shopper Army. I love having menthol on my chest when I am sick with a cold or cough. The problem with traditional menthol though is it gets messy on my hands. The beauty of this product is the roll-on feature. I am able to put menthol on my chest without the mess!!!

Helpful Product
I received this product as a sample in return for my unbiased review. This could not have come at a better time, I have been experiencing allergies all week long, with a terrible lingering cough. When I received this product I immediately opened it and rolled it along my neck and chest. It felt really good, not too hot but just enough heat to know it was being effective. Yes, I still have my cough but it is a lot less severe. I will definitely put more on before bed tonight. The smell is pleasant and the ease of the roll on applicator is a dream. I would definitely recommend this product.

New green helper when you have a cold
This is something new in my medicine box, and I really love it. It is convenient. My hands are not covered any more in vaseline goo that is impossible to clean off. Rolling ball allows you to put the medicine anywhere you want - chest, feet, etc, and still have clean hands. Kids love it - it looks cute, rolling ball is soft, but distribution is quite even. And the best thing - it actually works! Coughing stops within few minutes. It is very easy to store and easy to take with you without a thought of everything gets medical smell, does not take much space at all, closes tightly to the click, and green color helps to locate it without any problem. Highly recommend, especially for households with kids.

A great product in an easy-to-apply format!
I have been a vaporizing rub user for as long as I can remember. It was something my mom used on me when I was sick and her mom used on her. I now use it on my own family. As comforting and effective as the rub is, it has always been messy to apply. It was nearly impossible to get it off your hands after applying it and if you accidentally rubbed your eyes - burn! Luckily, those days are gone! Thanks to Mentholatum Vaporizing Rub Roll On there is no more mess in applying the rub. The rub is made of natural active ingredients, and with the easy-to-use roll on applicator, the rub just glides on. No more messy, sticky hands! The roll on is also convenient to take with you for on the go application. It is also under 3oz so it should be great for travel as well. I hope my family and I don't get sick over the winter, but if we do, we have one more great tool in our arsenal to fight the cough - the Mentholatum Vaporizing Rub Roll On. As a bonus, it also works as a topical analgesic, so it will help soothe aches and pains of muscles and joints. If you are a mentholated rub user, I highly recommend this product. And even if you are not, I suggest you give it a try the next time you have a cough or muscle ache.

No mess but powerful
Mentholatum Vaporizing Rub Roll On is a super easy way to get relief from colds. It is super easy to apply, just use the roll on and apply to your chest. I also put a little on my wrists since I was blowing my nose so often. I didn't have a cough, so I cannot speak to the ability to suppress coughs. The mentholatum scent was very strong and helped clear the sinuses. The product did leave a shiny and sticky spot on the skin where applied. I did enjoy being able to breath easier.

Easy to use Mentholatum
Mentholatum vaporizing rub is a product I have been using for years. I use Mentholatum for coughs, a stuffy nose, a sore throat, and recently I found it works on bug bites. For coughs, I rub Mentholatum on my chest. It soothes and quiets the cough. To relieve a stuffy nose I put a small amount under my nostrils to help clear my sinuses. If my throat hurts or has a tickle, I rug a small amount on the front of my neck. If I have been bitten by a mosquito or any other bug, I found rubbing Mentholatum on the bite will stop the itching. This new roll on bottle will make taking care of all my Mentholatum uses so much easier. There will be less mess, since I don't have to put my fingers in the jar. I can roll the vaporizing rub directly onto the problem area. Such an awesome idea!

No mess and easy to use!
I love the convenient bottle of the new Mentholatum "No Mess" vaporizing rub. It is the same product that worked so well to clear sinuses and help breathing, yet there is no mess! Putting this on my son has become so much easier. I do think the smell is a little too strong at times, but I think this is also why the product works well to clear congestion. I would definitely recommend this product to others for an easy, convenient way to help clear congestion.

Great For Cold Season!
This product came along at just the right time. The day it came, I had begun coming down with a nasty cold/sinus issue, and being pregnant, am unable to take a lot of what I normally would count on using to knock something like that out quickly. The product has a great scent, a very easy to use dispenser, and works great. I just rolled it on, and did not deal with any sticky or slimy residue. I'm already beginning to feel better.

Easy to Use Vaporizing Rub
I tried the new Mentholatum No Mess Vaporizing Rub. I was happy to see that it came with a ball applicator, which meant that I did not have to get the Rub on my fingers. (And then, probably, into my eyes) Interestingly, enough, when the sample bottle came, I noticed that, along with providing cough relief, it could also be used as a topical analgesic. It seems, that when it came, I had both a cold AND a sore knee. So, I tried it both ways. I used it at night to help suppress my cough. It seemed to do a good job, as I slept through the night. I also used it on my knee and it really helped to soothe the pain, without the burning I usually feel with analgesic rubs. The rub is easy to use, with a ball applicator which rolls the product where you want it. The only drawback is the smell. I don't mind it at night, as it opened my sinuses and helped me to sleep better. The problem is that I don't want to smell like that during the day. I would use this product for my colds and coughs, as well as my aches and pains. I like the fact that is made of 100% natural ingredients, and I will recommend this rub to my family and friends.

Mess-Free Relief
My family loved this! We all managed to catch colds at the same time, and this little roll on provided great relief for stuffy noses. I especially liked that it was a roll-on, which made for a completely mess-free application. Additionally, because of the ingredients, we were able to use it on my 4-year old (who still cannot take over-the-counter cold medicines).

Like The Concept
There are two things I really like about this product. I love the roll on concept. It was clean and easy to use. I didn't have to wash my hands afterwards and I was not worried about wiping the product in my eyes by accident. I also really like that it is more natural than other products. While there are 2 things I do like, there were several things I had issue with. I did not like that it is a bit misleading saying "100% natural active ingredients". That means there are unnatural ingredients. They are playing around with words trying to fool the customer. Leaves me a bit untrusting of the company. I also felt the roll on was not as strong as the rub on version. The smell was weaker and I did not feel the warm feeling like I did with the other version. The last thing I did not like was that it felt greasy. I felt that it was getting my clothing greasy and was just uncomfortable.

Relief for stuffiness
This is something that says it will suppress coughs. I don't know if it really works that way. I did Not have a cough. When I got the sample, I tried it without being sick. I have always used a thicker brand that was messy to put on. I like this roll on much better for application! Even though it is thinner, it works just as well and just as long. I like the strength of scent, it is more powerful than another brand. In conclusion, this is better for overnight stuffiness and lack of mess.

Roll on Mentholatum
Mentholatum has a roll on vaporizing rub. It is shaped like roll-on de-odorent. It is very easy to apply, as the packaging states. It works very well, when rubbed on the chest. It has a faint smell of vapor rub, and I was able to breathe it in while using it. I think this would be best used for kids, since it doesn't leave a mess and it is not smell as strong as normal vapor rub.

Excellent product!
The Mentholatum roll on rub is such an amazing product. It gives you the menthol vaporizing scent but in a no mess roll on. It is as easy as rolling on deodorant. So simple and so helpful. I love that you do not have to scoop it out and then rub it on. It goes on smooth and clear. My son has had a nasty cold for a few days now. This has been a life saver for us. I recommend this for anyone!!

Avoid Messy Fingers
This product is a great alternative the the normal vapo rub. You do not have to worry about the messy fingers when apply the normal vapo rub on your chest. This is easy to use just roll it on your chest close it up and your done! Simple to use. Not too overpowering.

Maximum Relief with No MESS
Being a mom to a five year old one thing I always avoid is unnecessary messes. I also always seek on 100 percent natural products or as close as possible. I am someone who often gets sick being that I work with kids for a living and also my immune system is just on the crappy side in general. I really found this product to be effective (I was surprised!) and easy to use and best of all not messy!

I like it better than the ointment
I have used mentholatum since I was a small child, now at the age of 62, I have used it on my chldren and my grandchildren. I have to say, the roll on is so much easier to use and just as effective. I am a new user of the Mentholatum rolll on.

Mentholatum Product Review
I loved testing a product that was all natural. I found the product worked as directed and really helped relieve my congestion through the night. I found the scent pleasant and not overpowering. I would definitely recommend this product to to other parents and children alike.

Nice applicator, but actual product seems weak.
Easy to apply. However, even though I rolled it on several times to get maximum product applied, I felt that there wasn't really much on my skin. Usually I can feel the product working when I use the rub-on version (a sort of warmth with a good menthol scent) but with this product I didn't get that. Not sure if it will affect how it works, but I did notice a difference of that sort. As I wasn't sick at the time, it's hard to tell if it would really improve coughs, etc. In the future, I might play it safe and buy the original.

GREAT NEW IDEA!!
This Mentholatum Roll On Vaporizing Rub is something totally new to me!! I had never seen or heard of it until this offer appeared. Saying that, it is a very innovative and unique idea! My experience with Mentholatum goes way back to childhood, as it was one of the "go-to" products our moms used when we had a cold, cough, etc. I remember the tiny jar, which we would inhale deeply to get the good, clean, refreshing smell and nasal relief. I still have a jar of this, myself, that I do use when I get a cold or cough. The fact that it is a roll on, no mess, is also a great selling point....very easy to apply without mess or hardly any effort at all. Another excellent attribute is that it is a totally natural product...this in itself is a wonderful selling point. All in all, I really love this product, love the smell, the great aid it gives when sick, and trust the brand and have for many, many years!

Strong relief without the mess
I liked that Mentholatum no mess vaporizing rub is made with natural active ingredients. Sometimes it seems like the natural ingredients aren't as strong, but that is not the case here. This vapor rub worked great without the mess and having to wash my hands multiple times to get rid of the smell. I would recommended this for anyone needing cough relief. It helped me to be able to sleep at night without worrying about getting it everywhere.

Works Great!
I was recruited to try this product for free and share my honest review. I liked this product a lot. With the roll on applicator, you are able to control the amount of product as well as concentrate it in one area. I happened to have a cold with a terrible cough at the time I tried this product. I absolutely loved the relief I felt after applying the product to my neck and chest as suggested on the directions! It went on smoothly and because it's a roll on there's the added bonus of not having greasy hands! It has a pleasant smell. I would definitely recommend this product.

Strong Stuff
I had never actually tried a vaporizing product like Mentholatum before this, although I'd seen similar products in the store, so this was a new experience. The packaging boasts that it contains 100% natural ingredients including menthol and eucalyptus, which I feel is a plus since so many cold and cough suppressants are just loaded with chemicals. The product is applied using the bottle's built-in rollerball which disperses the product evenly across the skin surface as desired. Although it's not supposed to leave a mess since supposedly it vaporizes, there is a little bit of a residue that remains after the product is applied but it doesn't necessarily feel overly sticky nor does it stain clothing. I was surprised at the strength of the menthol scent! It's almost a little overpowering; while it didn't seem to be quite as effective as I'd hoped as a cough suppressant, it definitely clears the sinuses! I was somewhat satisfied with the results. I'm not sure that this would be my go-to option for a "maximum-strength cough relief" medicine, but it does at least help somewhat.

Truly No Mess WOW!
A product that has been used in my family for as long as I can remember and it always made me cringe because of the mess of having to rub it on and then going to clean up. No more! this new roll on is a true ingenious product. It is easy to target specific areas and to apply the layers as thick or thin as needed. Cleanliness is also a plus because you are not dipping your hand into a container and spreading the germs back onto the skin. Being single and not having anyone to help the roll on makes it easy to reach all the places that would be impossible to get with my bare hands. I am definitely a customer for life no more dipping into a jar for me a am a roll on girl from now on.

Easy to Use!
I had the pleasure of using mentholatum rub and I was pleasantly surprised with how easy it was to apply and to use. One of the main things that I really loved was the no mess, when applying. When using you do not have to worry about the rub getting under your fingers, like the previous application. Not oily and just the right amount of smell. really helps you to breath, while opening your nasal passages. A good nights sleep!

Quick drying!! it contains 100% natural ingredients-its a big plus! I will recommend this product for sure!

Strong smell
This product has a very strong smell, it can be very overwhelming. It definitely does the job of clearing airways for better breathing when one has a cold, but I do not dare use this anywhere near my children and even sparingly near myself because the smell is so strong. I prefer a gentler smell, one that does not advertise I am a walking medicine cabinet. This is a product I will only use at home and sparingly.

So Easy A Kid Can Do It
This product is so easy to put on that even a kid can do it themselves. That said, I would keep this product in a medicine cabinet out of a young child's reach. Beside's that, this product is the same as when my mother would put the salve on me & my siblings. I like that this Mentholatum roll on is 100% natural and that I don't have to get my hands dirty when using it. Also, I like that I can use this on my sore joints and when I have a cold. The smell isn't bad either!

Very convenient vaporizing ointment
I received this product for free to review. When I used this product, I really like the ease of administration, and especially the fact that I didn't have to wash my hands immediately after application, nor worry about somehow rubbing the product into my eyes even after I had washed my hands. The vapors started to work almost right away, and I felt my sinuses clear up quite nicely. It has a nice cooling effect on the skin as well, which could help temporarily ease some muscle soreness. The vapors do seem to fade away after a few hours, so re-application throughout the day would be helpful, and the fact that this container is small, and seems to seal well, makes it easily portable in a bag or purse. My only (slight) displeasure with this product is that it doesn't really seem to absorb very well into the skin. I mean, hours after applying it, if I touched my neck, I could still feel it on there. If I remember correctly, the stuff you rub in by hand seemed to absorb a bit better - this would be very helpful when using at night for sleeping (though the package does say you can cover with warm, dry cloth if desired). In all, I would buy this product if it was available in that amazing lavender scent.

Mentholatum's Vaporizing Rub Roll On is a very convenient form for a topical analgesic. The roll-on is a great way to apply a vaporizing rub without any mess.

Mentholatum No Mess Vaporizing Rub works well
Mentholatum No Mess Vaporizing Rub is a good product. It comes in a roll on applicator, which is great, because it minimizes the mess. With many vapor rubs, you have to scoop the rub out of a tub and rub it on with your fingers. This applicator rolls on (similar to a deodorant) so your fingers and hands do not get vapor on them, and it does make a difference. I have used this rub for minor aches and pains and have been pleased with the application process, the product quality and smell. It tingles nicely when used for muscle aches. It is also intended for coughs and minor throat irritations and it does a nice job with this--the smell is strong enough but not overpowering. I recommend this product and feel it works well.

Mentholatum No Mess Vaporizing Roll On Rub
When I am not feeling well, I like to use products that are all natural and help with my symptoms. I was given the opportunity to try Mentholatum No Mess Vaporizing Roll On Rub and the first thing I really liked about the product is that you can roll it on your chest and not have to take the product out of a jar with your fingers which is messy. Once I rolled it on, I immediately smelled the menthol. Now that the weather is changing to cooler temperatures, my nose gets stuffed up at night and I get a cough sometimes so this product is good for helping me to relieve my cough. I like to use this product at night because the warmth of my body heat and me wrapped up in my covers activates the menthol (IMO). This product would be great for young children (ages 2 and over) as well. I would totally recommend this product for anyone who likes 100% natural products!

No mess is the best!
When trying out the Mentholatum no mess vaporizing rub I was a little skeptical that it wound be so easy to use and do a great job; but it did. I love that my 4 year old daughter can use this when she is sick since it is all natural. I don't have to worry that something could be in it that could affect her sensitive skin. There truly is no mess! It dries quickly and isn't sticky. You don't have to worry about wearing an old shirt because it doesn't leave any greasy stains. My whole family has used this product (I guess we are really good at sharing sickness) and we will be life long customers! There isn't a better product out there that can live up to all it claims when it comes to vaporizing rub. Easy to use, no mess, and not an overpowering scent.

No Mess so No Fuss
I am a big fan of Mentholatum and they have finally out done it, a roll on no mess vaporizing rub. This product is what I have been looking for as a Mother with children that hate that sticky yucky vapor rub, but they need it to help them sleep. This has solved the fussing. This product is so easy to use, it almost looks like a deodorant stick and all you do is twist off the cap and rub it on. It comes out in a thin nice coating on the chest area with absolutely no mess at all. My daughter could not believe I even put it on her until she saw the shine and smelled the vapor. Another plus is not having to have my hand filled with vapor rub that takes forever to wash off. This, like all Mentholatum products works great. It helped my daughter sleep through one of her worst colds the last few days and I did not have to try and convince her to let me apply it as she actually likes its. It works and I love the new roll on packaging.

Just as effective, less mess
I had the opportunity to try Mentholatum Roll-on and was thoroughly pleased with the product and the convenience factor. I have not been ill, and don't often use any type of mentholated product when I am, but I have often used them on sore muscles. The aggravating thing about these types of products is that they are very greasy and once you apply it, hands don't feel quite clean even after a few washings. With this roll-on, it is possible to not have any contact with the rub at all, so the application is a breeze. It dispenses a perfect amount and is very effective with the cooling sensation. My muscles felt more relaxed and I really enjoy the smell. That said, the product is still greasy when it's on the skin so it is highly advisable to put clothes over it that can handle the potential for staining, especially if you plan to crawl into bed with this on your skin. I am definitely planning to keep this around for any potential colds or congestion and will purchase it again in the future.

Calmed our croupy boy!
Both of my children get croup. However, my son is allergic to the medication his pediatrician uses to treat it. This means that when he develops croup...anytime there is a change in temperature of 20° or more in a day...I am either up all night running a steamy shower, or we are headed to our local ER. Two nights ago, I heard the croup cough start. I decided to try the Mentholatum Vaporizing Rub I had received free to try in exchange for my review. I didn't expect much, because the typical vaporizing greasy ointment stuff in a jar was never that successful for us. I applied a few strokes to my son's chest, his back and the back of his neck. He loved the way it felt and said it tickled. Within 30 minutes he had calmed down and was sound asleep. It was like a miracle. He slept through the night and therefore the entire house slept as well. I used it again the next night and decided to try it myself as well. I like it better than regular vapor rub. It does not feel sticky or greasy. It dries quickly and smells wonderful. I will be using this myself when I get sick. I am extremely grateful that I have found a product that helps my son with his croup. I no longer have to cringe in fear or dread when I hear that awful barking sound return.

No Mess Roll On
What a great idea! Mentholatum in a roll on! Hands free application with no worries if you might get some in your eyes. Mentholatum is great for soothing a cough opening your airway and for minor muscle aches and pains. My son has been having allergy problems and I told him to roll some Mentholatum under his nose and across his forehead and this opened his nasal passages quickly. I love the scent, it reminds of my childhood and my Mom rubbing this on my chest - it's like getting a hug when your sick. I received this sample in exchange for my honest opinion.

Soothing relief my kids love!
Mentholatum No Mess Vaporizing Rub is an all-natural analgesic that rolls on to help soothe coughs and even achy muscles. It's brilliant. Remember being sick as a kid, and your mom would lather on that thick, goopy chest rub? Sure, it was soothing - but that stuff was a mess! Fast forward 30 years, and I discover this. All the soothe, none of the greasy, get-everywhere, kids-screaming-because-your-hands-are-cold disaster. This rub goes on with slick roll-on applicator that makes my kids giggle (it tickles!) and starts working quickly. Even my most miserably sick patient - my husband - was able to get a good night's sleep after using this. I love that it contains all-natural ingredients, too. I've even used it for muscle pain in my lower back (which I could apply easily by myself, thanks to that cool roller ball) and found it to provide soothing relief. Mentholatum No Mess Vaporizing Rub is awesome stuff. I highly recommend it - and will never go back to the goop in the pot again!

Truly a mess free vaporizing alternative
I recently tried the Mentholatum No Mess Vaporizing Rub roll on. I've used other brands of vaporizing rubs when going to bed with a stuffy nose, so I loved comparing them to Mentholatum roll on. This roll on was extremely easy to use. With other brands, you get your hands messy by having to dip your fingers in a container and rub the gel on. With Mentholatum roll on, all you have to do is roll the menthol wherever you want it, totally mess free. It doesn't seem to be a gel, it's a lighter, all natural substance. The actual scent of the Mentholatum roll on does seem to be not quite as strong as other brands, so if you are looking for a stronger scent, this may not be for you. If you are looking for a scent that you can smell without being overpowered, then this is a great option.

Mentholatum Vaporizing Rub Roll On is wonderful. I grew up using the gooey stuff and this is so much better. It's a little wetter, but since you don't have to touch it with your hands it's a vast improvement! It's way less messy and works just as well.
