Review: EZEspa travel rollerball

I hate long car journeys.... If i´m driving i get stressed out and then start to lose concentration after a few hours, if someone else is driving i feel really sick. So its a lose lose situation. "Going for a drive" is my worst nightmare, i don't understand how people can get enjoyment out of "going for a drive". The only reason i drive anywhere is to get to the location at the end and then get back home again.

So when i discovered EZEspa (sister brand of Kleeneze) had released a selection of essential oil rollerballs i decided to order a few and give them a try. I had the perfect opportunity this weekend when my mum asked me to come with her to Marina Dór, which is a resort town in Castellon.. a good 3 and a half hours drive from where we live. I was dreading the journey because i didn't want to be sick and every time i have been there before i have felt terrible after the long drive or got really ill on the way. But she bribed me with a trip to a new shopping centre i had never been to on the way home, and who doesn't love discovering a new shopping centre !? So i agreed to go.

The rollerball is in a nice glass bottle with a silver lid, it is designed to be applied to your pulse points ( temples, wrists, inner elbows, behind knees etc...) and its mix of essential oils (peppermint, lavender, geranium and eucalyptus) promise to ease travel sickness and prevent jetlag. I don't think i will be going on any long haul flights anytime soon so can only tell you about car sickness but for me it worked really well.

As soon as i got in the car i applied to my neck( just below ears), wrists, inner elbows and behind knees so that every time i moved i got a waft of the refreshing minty scent, i re-applied every 40 minutes or so when i felt it was starting to wear off and each time it gave me a bit of a boost and stopped me feeling sick. This is the first time i have ever been a passenger on a car journey this long and not felt nauseous or actually been sick so this was brilliant for me. I think the price is good at 5 pound/ 6€ as it will last a long time.

They also have a few more in the range.. i have bought the calming rollerball (which smells like roses..LOVE) and the energizing rollerball along with this one and I'm dying to try the other 2 which are sleep well and breathe easy. All Ezespa products are available from here or from your local Kleeneze distributor (UK, Ireland, Spain, Germany, Holland).
