This product is similar to Vicks Vapo Rub but I feel Watkins Menthol Camphor works better and smells much better than the Vicks. My stuffy nose clears real fast and keeps me soothed through the night when I use this product while I am sick.

I also rub this ointment on my hands in the winter time when they get dry, chapped, and they feel sore/burning sensation. I apply the menthol camphor and my hands feel so much better. It gives them a cool relief and the burning sensation instantly dissapears. It keeps my hands soft and dry all winter! I know this is not the products intended use but it works wonders for me in the winter time.

I had never used Watkins ointment but had a friend who has raved about it for years. For dry and chapped lips I normally use Neosporin lip treatment or Carmex but lately neither item worked. Just recently my lips became so chapped and dry that they actually hurt and I had some serious dryness around my mouth. My friend suggested I get some Watkins. I went online to order it from Amazon but knew that would take at least 2 days since I was out of town. I found out this was sold at Cracker Barrel restaurants. I bought it and applied it before I went to bed and by morning I could tell the difference. My lips cleared up within 2 days. I also applied this ointment to a cut and it definitely soothes the soreness. I have 2 large tins for my home and office and a small tin for my purse. I am definitely a believer in this product.

I actually didn't know they still made this stuff. When I was a kid, I remember my parents using it on themselves & me when cold season came around. I know it is meant to be like Vicks Vap-o-rub, but it also helps with cold sores (fever blisters). Everytime I felt one coming, I'd dab some of this medicine on the tingly spot & the sore would be gone in no time! A little tin lasts FOREVER too, so it's well worth the money!
