Product Information
Full details
The Care Menthol Crystals are designed for infants, children, and adults seeking a medicine-free solution for nasal congestion and blocked 'aeroplane ears'. The key benefit is rapid relief through concentrated menthol vapour inhalation, promoting easier breathing. A caveat is that they are intended for relief of congestion symptoms, not as a cure for underlying infections. This product utilizes natural menthol crystals that dissolve in water to release powerful, cooling vapour for clear breathing.

Troubleshooting
No noticeable vapour produced
Ensure you are using hot, but not boiling, water. The heat is necessary to create the steam. Check that the crystals have fully dissolved.
Vapour seems too strong or irritating
Move further away from the bowl when inhaling. Ensure your eyes are closed during the process. Use a smaller amount of crystals in the hot water.
Crystals are difficult to dissolve
Stir gently to help the crystals dissolve completely in the hot water. Ensure the water is sufficiently hot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use the Care Menthol Crystals, dissolve a small amount of the crystals in a bowl of hot (not boiling) water. Ensure the water is hot enough to produce steam but not so hot that it poses a burn risk. Carefully lean over the bowl and inhale the menthol vapour through your nose. Keep your eyes closed during inhalation to avoid irritation. This product is compatible with the goal of symptom relief for nasal congestion and ear pressure.
Care Instructions:
Store the crystals in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children. Ensure the container is sealed after use to maintain the potency of the menthol. Do not ingest the crystals directly. Clean any bowl or container used for preparation thoroughly after each use.
