Too Drunk...Emotibomb Review (again)

Feb 18, 2009 11:52

Too Drunk...Emotibomb - I just had to review this product again when I found a brand new way to use it. I tore off a corner and threw it in boiling water. Then I put a towel over my head and steamed with it. I was suffering from a terrible sinus infection and it cleared my sinuses for a good hour or longer. I re-used the water 6 times, just ( Read more... )

this is an amazing tip, and as a lush SA, i'd like to THANK YOU for bringing this to my attention!

i tend to mention to my customers that this is also fantastic for colds and flu - but i hadn't considered the steaming potential! i will definitely be mentioning this to my workmates at our monthly training session on sunday morning! :)

glad to hear you're feeling better. x

Wow, I'm excited to hear that my suggestion will help out an actual Lush SA. You folks deserve my undying gratitude and jealousy. There are no openings in my area, sadly. :-(

so you soaked the towel in the too drunk brew, put it on your face, and that was that? is that what you mean by steaming with it? sorry if it's an obvious answer :P

I couldn't smell it too much in the shower either, sick or not.

steaming is where you use a bowl or sinkful of hot water, place your head over the bowl, then a towel over your head so no steam escapes either side of your face! this is how the toner tabs from lush work :)

I should of googled. Thank you :]

Yup, she's absolutely right. It's a folk remedy that actually works (my doctor recommended it to me) and I just stuck the emotibomb in there on a whim. Fantastic results!

excellent, i tend to get sinus a lot and always resorted to salt water sniffing-but this sounds a lot better :)

Oh, what a great idea! I'm going to have to try this myself the next time I get bad sniffles (I always get knocked on my ass by them, likely cause they screw up my sleep and I can't rest).

Awesome idea. I wonder how thing would work when I have migranes. I know standing in a hot shower is soothing, but maybe this would help even more.
