Stronger working-but major mess and clean up!

Kupkake - 21 days ago, Verified purchaser
Real review-It’s stronger than normal Vicks’s but actually MUCH messier. The stick actually melts inside the tube and starts leaking out the bottom. And the stick does absorb into your skin so you eventually have to scrub the mess off! I like that it’s stronger but I’m not sure all the mess and cleanup is worth it. Crazy that it’s labeled as being in a stick with less touching but you have to clean up a lot.

It’s not like the regular kind, it’s not as thick, also chunks rub on, it’s not as strong smelling either. It is very convenient to not get on your hands, and it feels different than the other.

This is the best thing since sliced bread. It’s the Vicks you love in a convenient glue stick-like contraption. No more sticky hands or Q Tips covered in the Vicks jelly. 10/10
Hit or miss consistency

Jess - 7 months ago
I first purchased this about a year ago and it was great. I don’t know if it was as effective as the traditional ointment, but it was easy to apply, mess-free, and did work. When my kids got sick while traveling, picking up another stick felt like a no brainer. Maybe it’s because the house where we’re staying doesn’t have AC, but the consistency is definitely different. It’s somehow both oily and crumbly, and definitely not mess-free. It’s helped my kids sleep more comfortably, though, which is why I gave it 4 stars.

My youngest isn't a fan of traditional vapor rubs, but the VaporStick is a hit! It's so much easier to apply, and I love that it's mess-free. There's no risk of accidentally wiping vapor rub on other parts of the body since you don’t have to use your hands. It’s a clean, convenient solution that works just as effectively!

LD - 9 months ago
I got this product to relieve the itchiness of my bug bites. It works wonders for it as it is not the same formula as regular Vicks. You need to apply very gently with little to no pressure otherwise the product tends to crumble. I would not use for congestion but will buy again for bug bite relief.

I opened the tube thinking it would smell like the typical Vicks Vapor smell but it definitely does not. I then looked at the ingredients and it doesn’t even contain the same ingredients as the Vicks potted ones. Also, there was so much clear liquid like it was melting.Will definitely be returning and never buying again.

It was great to use the first few times. Then I went to apply it on my daughter and it crumbled everywhere all over her bed. So messy. Now it’s unusable.

We're sorry you're finding our VapoStick too messy, Angie.

This is just frangrance and oils. Smells similar to Vicks but this is not the same product. Smell isn’t long lasting. This would be an amazing product if it were the same Vicks product we all know and love. Application is great just not the same Vicks!
1 reply from Vicks team - 1 year ago
We're sorry that our Vapostick balm isn't meeting your expectations, Hayhayl. It's important to know that while both VapoRub and VapoStick provide the soothing scent of Vicks Vapors, they are not the same. VapoStick is a solid balm with the soothing scent of Vicks Vapors that contains moisturizing ingredients for soft & smooth skin. However, it is non-medicated and not intended to treat cold or flu symptoms. VapoRub ointment is a medicated OTC drug product intended to ease a cough caused by a cold, or soothe muscular & joint aches and pains. We're passing your feedback that the scent didn't last as long as you'd like, and our team would like to gather details of your experience to see how we can further help. Please give us a call at 1-800-873-8276 from 9AM — 6PM EST Monday – Friday.
