Troubleshooting

No noticeable vapour release

Ensure the correct number of drops have been applied to the tissue. The scent is subtle and natural, so it may not be immediately obvious. Ensure the tissue is placed close to the child's breathing area.

Child is restless or seems uncomfortable

Discontinue use if the child shows signs of irritation or discomfort. Ensure the tissue is placed at an appropriate distance, not directly under their nose, to avoid overwhelming them.

Oil spills during use

Wipe up any spills immediately with a damp cloth to prevent making surfaces slippery. Ensure the bottle is stable when adding drops to the tissue.
