Nasal Sticks

What are Nasal Sticks?

Nasal sticks (sometimes called nasal inhalers) are typically plastic or aluminum tubes that encases a cotton wick doused in menthol, eucalyptus oil, peppermint oil, and other essential oils that help people breathe easier. Essential oils come from plants and each one has unique aromatic properties that give it a distinct characteristic.

They offer a convenient and cost-effective way to benefit from essential oils without bothering others around you with the aroma. They’re also easy to carry around wherever you go, whether in your back pocket or your purse.

What Ingredients Typically Go Inside a Nasal Inhaler?

At BoomBoom, we obsess over the ingredients that go into our inhalers. All of our ingredients are derived from true natural sources and clearly listed on our labels.

Our line of nasal inhaler products include:

  • Peppermint oil
  • Eucalyptus oil
  • Menthol
  • Spearmint oil
  • and other essential oils depending on the flavor

BoomBoom is made in a GMP Certified facility with all-natural ingredients. It is 100% safe if used as directed.

How Do Nasal Inhalers Differ From Diffusers?

To use a diffuser, you add several drops of oil to an inner chamber of water and turn it on to produce scented steam that fills a small room.

While diffusers work well to add aroma and ambiance to a room, they dilute the essential oil, so you’re less likely to experience specific health benefits from inhaling them. Another drawback is that they expose everyone within your space to the oils, which can be a problem if you’re around people with sensitivities to certain smells.

By contrast, an inhaler gives you a personalized, concentrated dose of essential oils for a sharper, stronger effect. Some people have even found that these all-natural inhalers help them overcome the urge to smoke by curbing the hand-to-mouth habit of handling cigarettes.

What Are the Benefits of Using a Nasal Inhaler?

People often assume that nasal inhalers like BoomBoom are going to give you a static buzzing energy, like the feeling you get after a cup of coffee or energy drink. It’s important to realize that we’re not comparing apples to apples here.

Consumable products with caffeine, B12, taurine, and niacin are going to make you feel amped up – that’s the intended effect of those ingredients.

Nasal inhalers like BoomBoom are different. Your sense of smell is very powerful and plays a major role in how you feel. So when you blast your nasal cavity with tasty berry-flavored menthol, peppermint, and eucalyptus oils, you’ll experience a unique dynamic and mental energy... not a chemical energy. It’s going to give you a quick refreshing boost that feels amazing.

How Long Do Nasal Inhalers Last?

Most inhalers are best used within 30 days of opening, though the pleasant aromatic vapors may remain present for up to 3 months.

How Often Should I Use a Nasal Inhaler?

The product can be used once daily or multiple times an hour depending on the person. That being said, we understand that everyone has a different level of sinus sensitivity, so we recommend using the product 2-3x per day until you’re comfortable using it more.

Mouth Tape

Is it safe?

Yes. BoomBoom Mouth Tape is made with soft, breathable materials and a gentle adhesive designed for nightly use. As with any new wellness habit, if you have any concerns about your breathing or airway health, we recommend checking in with your doctor first.

What if my nose feels stuffy?

Skip it that night. Mouth tape works best when your nasal passages are clear. Clear your nose first with a nasal stick or saline rinse, or just wait until you're feeling better. It'll be there when you're ready.

Could I remove it during the night?

Absolutely. It's designed to peel off easily whenever you need it to. The center slit design also allows for easy straw access before you drift off - a little extra reassurance as you settle into the habit.

Why not just use regular tape?

Regular tape isn't made for your face or for overnight wear. BoomBoom Mouth Tape is specifically designed to be soft, breathable, and gentle - even on sensitive skin and facial hair.

Will it work with a beard or sensitive skin?

That's exactly what it's built for. The flexible fabric and gentle adhesive stay put without pulling and remove cleanly.
