Simple Vapor Rub Using Essential Oils

Learned this today just in time for fall allergy and cold season:

Ingredients:

6 tablespoons of coconut oil
20 drops or so of each of eucalyptus, lavender, rosemary, and peppermint (adjust to preference but I have a heavy hand with the eucalyptus oil when I'm really congested)

Place ingredients in small mason jar or similar container and mix.

I suppose you could also use petroleum jelly if you're ok with "unnatural" ingredients but haven't tried that yet....
