Snuffle Babe Vapour Rub

I bought this for my little-un when he was 3 and half months old. He was constantly getting ill before he cut his first tooth. By having a stuffy nose he could not breathe through the night and so had a restless sleep and was tired the following day. So I went out and saw this which seemed to be the same as vicks but suitable for children. It is a small 24g tub with clear contents that can be applied either onto chest and neck or onto a tissue and tied to the cot. I rubbed it on his chest and back but did not use any near his mouth. It smells like menthol but is not as strong and only a small amount needs to be applied. I noticed a difference ...  Read the complete review

My 10 month old son started nursery for the first time around 8 weeks ago, anyone with children will know that this opens them up to every different bug going and my poor boy got sick from the first day that he started!!! I was aware this would happen as I know that when your baby is introduced to other children they pick up bugs and this in turn strengthens their immune system so in young babies it is just really a case of them having to ride out the illness until their immune system is strong enough to fight it off. As well as ear infections, conjunctivitis and a list of other ailments, he also picked up a cold with a really snotty nose, but this seemed to ...  Read the complete review

When babies start to cough and sniffle, there's not a lot you can do for them. This in itself is quite stressful as you want to be able to help your baby breathe easier, especially at night. When our daughter was about six months old, she had the most horrendous cough and was snoring in her sleep because she couldn't breathe properly. After looking around we found this vapour rub that is much the same as Vicks vapour rub, but designed for babies over the age of three months old. I bought it because it caught my eye on the supermarket shelves over the Vicks products. It's only a plain white box, but the lettering was bright and colourful and directed at ...  Read the complete review

Snuffle Babe is great for babies and young children with stuffy noses and mild colds and is specially designed for babies over three months old. It's very similar to Vicks but has a more pleasant smell and isn't quite as strong so it's easier on little ones noses. A small amount can be applied to a tissue or soft cloth and placed inside babies bedding but for a more efficient result it is best to apply a small amount to the chest area and even the neck to help eliviate stuffyness in the nose and help baby breath (and sleep) more easily. It only costs around £2 for the smallest jar (about 25g) and this will last for some time as you only need a very ...  Read the complete review

As most parents know, when your child has a bad cold and a blocked up nose it is not only distressing for the child but for the parents too. I remember when my little boy was five months old, he caught his first cold, he was all stuffy nosed, eyes watering and chesty and he couldn't breath properly. I sent my husband to the chemist to buy some Vickes but he came home with snuffle babe, because it was cheaper !!!!! at first I was not impressed surely the health of our baby was worth more to him than saving a quid, but after rubbing a little on our sons chest and a little on his teddys arm he was breathing normally again within seconds. The vapours had ...  Read the complete review
