FAQs
How many crystals should I use?
For an effective vapour, start with 2-3 crystals added to a bowl of hot water. You can adjust the amount slightly based on your preference for vapour intensity.
Can children use Care Menthol Crystals?
Yes, these crystals are suitable for children. However, adult supervision is crucial during use, especially when handling hot water and steam. Ensure the steam concentration is not too intense for a child.
Can I use boiling water?
No, it is strongly advised not to use boiling water. Use hot water that is steaming but not at a rolling boil to prevent burns and to maintain the integrity of the menthol properties.
How long should I inhale the vapour?
A typical session lasts between 10 to 15 minutes. Inhale deeply through your nose to allow the menthol vapours to reach your nasal passages.
What if the menthol scent is too strong?
If the scent is too intense, try using fewer crystals, increasing the amount of water, or stepping further back from the bowl during inhalation. You can also reduce the duration of the session.
Can these crystals be used in a diffuser?
No, these menthol crystals are specifically designed for use in hot water for steam inhalation and are not intended for use in electronic diffusers or humidifiers.
How should I store the crystals?
Store the Care Menthol Crystals in their original container, tightly sealed, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Troubleshooting
Vapour seems weak
Ensure you are using sufficiently hot water (without boiling) and have used the recommended number of crystals. Make sure you are covering your head with a towel to effectively trap the steam during inhalation.
Crystals not dissolving
Confirm that the water is hot enough. If the water is lukewarm, the crystals may not dissolve effectively. Avoid using boiling water, as it can be dangerous and may diminish the menthol's properties.
Skin irritation during use
You may be holding the bowl too close or the water may be too hot. Maintain a safe distance from the water surface and discontinue use if irritation persists. Ensure the crystals are fully dissolved before inhalation.
