I started using this magical product (which is made with peppermint, spearmint, and lavender essential oils) a few years ago and since then have told approximately 1,089,642 people about it. I keep one in my purse and one on my dresser, and I reorder before I’m actually close to running out. While it won’t kill a major migraine on its own, it feels super soothing and cooling. If I end up taking ibuprofen for my headache, this is really nice to use while it kicks in. Also, if I just have a slight headache or just the beginnings of one, a few swipes of this (lightly on my temples and forehead and as heavily as I want on my neck) can actually knock it out or delay it getting worse. It’s so great to help me get through my busy days, and I really wish I’d had it during high school and college to help me get through the day then! Read my full review here.
Promising review: “I LOVE this stuff. I initially ordered two, one for myself and another for my pregnant boss. She was getting a lot of headaches at the start of her third trimester and couldn’t take anything for them due to being pregnant, so I figured it was a good time to try this finally. Immediately I loved it. The smell is amazing and it works fairly quickly. Relief starts in one-two minutes and lasts for about an hour before I need to reapply. I get migraines so when I need immediate relief, I’ll use the stick then take whatever medication I have on me. This product helps to take the edge off a migraine before the medication kicks in. As for my boss, she was equally impressed. After using it a few times she thanked me profusely because before she’d had to just tough out any headaches she got. I still use this and it’s lasted a long time! It also helps if my neck is sore from sleeping/sitting at my desk all day. It does leave a little greasy residue so I try to pull my hair up while it’s drying. 10/10, will absolutely purchase again when I run out!” —Emily
