Review: It makes me cry - this has lasted me a long time, I use it pretty sparingly though. I feel like other people can smell it on me when i use it so it isn't particularly useful when you're trying to gaslight someone- especially when they know you have it. but for things like video podcasts or movies, other channels of communication where scent is not a factor, this would work great. sometimes i keep it open in my pocket so i can just dip my finger tips in and rub them under my eyes slyly and it works within a few minutes.
Review: Very discreet size, works well - Bought this because I was having a hard time crying on camera for a recent audition. It’s very strong and easy to use. Looks just like a tube of lipstick and is a great value for the money. It does what it’s supposed to do and is a good size to just slide into my bag.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how long does it last?**
A: The Tear Stick effect will last about 5-10 minutes, enough to cause tears to form and to keep them flowing. After 10 minutes, the menthol vapors will have mostly dissipated, so you will need to reapply the Tear Stick.

**Q: How long does it last? As in expiration date. 1 year? 10 years, ...?**
A: It last aprox 1-3 theater seasons or one years worth of horror movie acting. Expiration date Varies but usually needs replacement a year after being bought.

**Q: Is anyone else able to smell the menthol when its applied?**
A: Yes, you can definitely smell it right after it’s applied (not as strong as Vicks though) Eventually the smell wears off slowly.

**Q: How fast does this work?**
A: The hotter the environment or your skin, it works immediately. If you are outside during cold months or in a well air conditioned space, it needs about 2-5 minutes for the peppermint vapors to begin floating in front of your eyes.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Useful
*by X***W on July 31, 2025*

Works okay . .. not as effective as I hoped. One can feel the effect right away, but it takes more time to actually tear.
