When you’ve spent time and money planning a trip, the last thing you need is to deal with motion sickness. Whether you’re driving, flying, training or boating, this $13 pair of non-medicated herbal inhalers offers reviewers relief from queasiness — immediately.
“I frequently get nauseous in the car, a whiff of this I’m fine in seconds,” one review wrote. “I could not believe it when I placed a bit of the oil on the tip of my nose and it was instant relief,” another wrote, deeming the smell as “pleasant and relaxing.”
Made with an herbal blend of menthol and eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint oils, users say this double-sided product soothes their stomach and nerves.
About the size of a tube of lip balm, these handy inhalers are travel-ready and easy to keep in your bag or bedside table. Drug-free and non-drowsy, you can pull off the top cap and breathe in the refreshing aroma or twist off the bottom to dab the oil mixture under your nose.
Users love the versatility, saying the two-in-one dap applicator makes the Allclair sticks better than others on the market. “This is great for applying oil to my temples, around my nose, on my neck, or anywhere else I may need it,” one wrote.
Non-medical motion sickness relief is a hot topic with HuffPost readers.
People will not stop buying the best-selling, anti-motion sickness glasses, which led to them recently winning our HuffPicks seal of approval.
While the funny-looking glasses are also currently on sale (hit that 20% off coupon, friend), if you don’t like wearing glasses or want relief that’s a little less visible, these inhalers may be the ticket.
Another bonus? Reviewers say these inhalers are great well beyond travel needs!
People swear they’re great for pregnant people dealing with morning sickness, general nausea, sensitivity to “bad smells and easing anxiety. Many reviewers say they’ve purchased multiple, keeping them in the car, on their key ring, with their kids and around the house.
“This is an ESSENTIAL for my day to day life,” a reviewer diagnosed with OCD emetophobia said. “The second my stomach feels off, I use the rub side and it instantly calms me down. This is literally my safety blanket.”
Disclaimer: Motion sickness has various symptoms and severity levels. This inhaler is designed to address mild waves of nausea. As always, speak to your doctor or medical professional if you’re having persistent issues or to check if this inhaler is right for you.
“I get nauseous often and I always have this on me. Whether it’s carsickness or anxiety, something will set my stomach off. This always brings me quick relief! I love that it comes in a two pack. It’s so easy to use. Something that sets this apart from other ‘boom sticks’ is that that the allclair stick is double sided, and has a roll-on/dab-on peppermint oil applicator on the bottom. This is great for applying oil to my temples, around my nose, on my neck, or anywhere else I may need it. It’s so easy to use and it works well. It’s a good quality product and I’ve used it over and over again. It’s great. It’s easy to use, the design is user-friendly, and it’s a quick way to find relief. Use it in moderation, don’t get the oil in your eyes, and you’ll have a great time.” — MJ
“Listen, if you get motion sickness or suffer from nausea give this a try. I’ve bought this product so many times as it’s been a game changer for me. I frequently get nauseous in the car, a whiff of this I’m fine in seconds. They surprisingly last a long time for the size of the stick. I love the design and function, you can either smell it or unscrew the other side and have drops come out. It’s not sticky, doesn’t leak and honestly is a necessity for me to be comfortable in the car. I keep one in my purse and every vehicle.” — Amazon customer

“I went to Disney world and took this for my husband who gets motion sickness, he used this and was able to ride all of the rides we went on without getting sick, absolutely a must if you get motion sickness. I am at awe in how well and fast it worked. It’s small and compact enough to fit in your pocket and works in minutes. So easy to use too, all you have to do is take off the cap and smell it for a minute and you’re good to go. A repurchase for sure.” — Travis
