As a mother of two toddlers, its hard to watch them suffer through colds and feel powerless to help them. The Watkins balm helped knock out my 2 yr olds cough in two nights. The smell is not overpowering and it doesn't burn like some vapor rubs. By the third night she was asking for "a backrub with the stuff". I will definitely reach for it time and again when my kids get a cough.

This is a product no one in my family can live without. Anytime someone has sinus problems, cold, sore throat, ear ache, etc. - we grab "the green tin". Can't say that it "cures" the problem, but it usually takes the pain away immediately. Not something that you want to use just before going out, as the smell is kinda' strong; but really could not live without it. Also, be aware that when you use it near your eyes - they'll water. My dh used to laugh at me when our boys would tell me about some pain and I'd say to get "the green tin" - then he finally tried it and now he uses it and tells our boys to get "the green tin" 8^) Also, recommended it to a friend whose son has sinus problems and he loves it too.

works for all that aches

I USE THIS PRODUCT AS A LIP BAUM IN THE MORNING AFTER I SHOWER AND AT NIGHT BEFORE I GO TO BED. YOU ONLY NEED A LITTLE BIT TOO SO THE CONTAINER WILL LAST FOR YEARS.

I suffer with rough, achy, dry feet, especially the heels. I use this nightly as a rub all over paying great attention to the heels, cover with cotton socks, it really soothes and cools. All better in the morning!!! I love this product and would recommend it to anyone suffering the same problems.

I have arthritus very bad. I have to take way to many pain killers but when it gets so bad, even after my meds, I rub this stuff on and instantly, the pain gets better. It is the best I have ever seen.

I have been using this for thirty years and would not be without it for a day. You will never find a better product. It even helps migraines if you put it on your forehead. So many uses and works wonders.
