R179.00

Annique Resque Vapour Rub – 50ml
Upgraded and more powerful — a botanical vapour rub with Pine Oil and Rooibos that clears congestion, eases breathing and soothes chest tightness naturally.
The Annique Resque Vapour Rub has long been a trusted comfort during colds, flu and seasonal change. Now it is back — upgraded with the powerful addition of Pine Oil, making an already effective formula significantly more potent for natural respiratory relief.
When congestion sets in, breathing becomes laboured, chest tightness builds and blocked nasal passages make rest difficult. The Resque Vapour Rub addresses all of this through a carefully selected blend of botanical oils, soothing Menthol and Camphor, and Annique’s exclusive Rooibos Extract — working together to open airways, clear sinuses, relieve chest tightness and provide comforting support exactly when it is needed most.
The newly added Pine Oil brings natural decongestant, antimicrobial and immune-supporting properties to the formula — complementing the well-established decongestant action of Eucalyptus Oil, the cooling and airway-opening properties of Menthol, the soothing and pain-relieving benefits of Camphor and Methyl Salicylate, and the antioxidant and skin-nourishing properties of Rooibos Extract.
Applied to the chest, throat and back — and optionally to the soles of the feet covered with socks for overnight comfort — the Resque Vapour Rub can be used up to three times daily, with particular benefit when applied before bedtime for lasting overnight relief.
⚠️ Avoid contact with eyes, mouth and broken skin. For external use only. Keep out of reach of children. Perform a patch test before use on sensitive skin. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Wash hands after use.
Key Ingredients and Benefits
Pine Oil (Pinus Sylvestris) — NEW
The powerful new addition to the upgraded formula. Known for its natural decongestant, antimicrobial and immune-supporting properties — helping to minimise the risk of infection, reduce itchiness and inflammation and enhance the overall respiratory relief delivered by the formula.
Menthol
Cools the skin and helps open the airways for easier, more comfortable breathing. Provides an immediate refreshing and decongestant sensation that clears nasal passages and eases breathing difficulty.
Camphor
Assists with the relief of pain, irritation and inflammation in sore muscles — particularly the chest and back discomfort that often accompanies colds and flu. Also soothes congestion and contributes to the overall decongestant action of the formula.
Eucalyptus Oil
A well-established antibacterial and antifungal herbal oil that naturally helps clear sinuses and supports respiratory health. One of the most effective natural decongestants available.
Methyl Salicylate
Known for its warming and pain-relieving effects — ideal for soothing the minor muscle aches associated with colds and flu.
Rooibos Extract (Aspalathus Linearis)
A powerful natural antioxidant that helps soothe and nourish the skin throughout the application — providing a gentle, skin-friendly balance to the strong active botanicals in the formula.
What It Helps With
- Nasal and chest congestion
- Breathing difficulty and airway restriction

Pairs Well With
- Annique Resque Mist 100ml
While the Vapour Rub addresses chest, throat and back congestion through topical application, the Resque Mist provides instant on-demand relief for headaches, sinus pressure and nasal congestion through spray and inhalation — together covering every dimension of respiratory discomfort simultaneously. - Annique Resque Concentrate 10ml
The pocket-sized Concentrate provides targeted on-the-go relief for headaches and sinus pressure throughout the day — a practical complement to the Vapour Rub which works best as an overnight and at-home treatment. - Annique Resque Crème 30ml
After managing respiratory symptoms, Resque Crème soothes any irritated or dry skin around the nose and mouth caused by repeated tissue use and the strong active botanicals in the Vapour Rub. - Annique Forever Healthy Vitamin C 30 Tablets
Internal immune support to complement the topical relief of the Vapour Rub — Vitamin C supports the immune system during and after illness from the inside while the Vapour Rub manages symptoms from the outside. - Annique Forever Healthy OptiMune 30 Capsules
An immune-supporting supplement that works internally while the Vapour Rub addresses respiratory symptoms externally — a complete inside-out approach to cold and flu management.
