A few weeks ago I came down with ANOTHER cold and found myself holed up on the couch feeling like death warmed over. Later on that afternoon, I got an alert from my motion detector of movement on the front porch, I hobbled out to the front and found that a sweet basket of get well goodies was left for me by one of my fellow sub-wives. Along with some flowers, donuts, and other sweet treats from a few ladies, it was one of the sweetest gestures I’ve seen in a while; it made my heart so happy.
It made me realize that I wanted to give the gift of wellness. This season to some friends to help them be prepared if any grimy illness comes their way! I grabbed some of my favorite things to keep on hand during this season while picking up some groceries at Ralphs, a Kroger banner store, the other day and have them ready to go. I LOVE making gift baskets for others and I know from experience that receiving a basket full of things-you-need during an illness is more than appreciated!
Inside the basket: Abreva® Pump Cold Sore and Fever Blister Treatment, Breathe® Right Extra Clear Nasal Strips, Clorox® Disinfecting Wipes, Robitussin® Maximum Strength Cough & Chest DM, Theraflu Power Pods Daytime Severe Cold, and a mug to keep their drinks warm.
Here is the why behind the items:
-
- Abreva® Pump Cold Sore and Fever Blister Treatment – This is my GO-TO when it comes to feeling that tingle beginning on my lips. I’ve been getting cold sores since I was a child and this is always kept on hand in our household! Abreva is not for temporary symptom relief, but healing. It delivers the best results when used at the first sign of a cold sore (e.g. the tingle that one feels on his/her lip).
-
- Breathe® Right Extra Clear Nasal Strips:
-
- Strips provide relief for congestion due to colds, allergies, or a deviated septum and reduce snoring caused by nighttime nasal congestion.
-
- Breathe Right is drug-free and safe to use with any sleep medication.
-
- How it works:
- Within each Breathe Right strip are flexible, “spring-like” bands. On the underside is a special adhesive that, when placed properly on the nose, gently sticks to the area right above the flare of each nostril. As the bands attempt to straighten back to their original shape, they gently lift the sides of the nose and open the nasal passages, providing immediate and continual relief.
- How it works:
- Difference between clear strips and tan strips:
- Breathe Right clear nasal strips work the same way the tan strips do. However, the materials used are slightly different, making clear strips easier to remove, which can be beneficial for people with dry or sensitive skin.
-
- Clorox® Disinfecting Wipes – This is another staple in our home and is PERFECT for the Flu season. I always love gifting these to family/friends because they wipe away 99.9% of the most common allergens* and also keep everything smelling nice and fresh!
- Robitussin® Maximum Strength Cough & Chest DM – When that cough just won’t quit, this is the perfect solution! With Robitussin, you can fight your cough and help kick your symptoms to the curb. The liquid-strength of Robitussin soothes on contact and provides cough relief for hours. AKA this is a must-have during this season!
- Breathe® Right Extra Clear Nasal Strips:
- Theraflu Power Pods Daytime Severe Cold – Ok this was a new one to me but my goodness is it not amazing?! The perfect combination for those chilly mornings or evenings all while making you feel better!
