Lipivir - Great!
I received this product to try for free and I love it!
I don't get cold sores too often, but when they come (especially during the colder months) they're bad. This was so easy to use and didn't have a strange smell. I will definitely be recommending this to my friends who also get cold sores.
Effective
I applied the product and found that it made a difference within a few days. It tingled slightly but it was mild enough to not cause me to toss the product. I would recommend to those who found other products to be ineffective.
Works well
A little goes a long way. Taste isn't great, but no big deal. It's been 2 weeks, seems to work so far. Great lip moisturizer, at night. Price seems a bit high.
Très bon ongent
Malheureusement, je n’ai pas eu de pousser losque j’ai reçu le produit. Parcontre, ma belle soeur oui et elle m’a affirmer que cette crème l’avait aidé dans la guérisson et le camouflage de son feu sauvage. Donc, je recommande ce produit en sa parole. #gotitfree
This product was good.
I liked the feel of this lip product, I didn’t really enjoy the taste when it got into my mouth though. I did not get a cold sore while using this product, not sure if it was effective or not.......
Would buy
Great product to prevent cold sores. They are not fun and can be uncomfortable to get through the day and there are not that many products out there so I am glad I got to try this lip chap not only does it moisturize my lips but adds extra benefits as well.
Lipivir Review
I received this product complimentary from chick advisor to review and give my honest opinion. I think it is great quality, long lasting and doesn’t ruin your secondary lip product when placed on top. Unfortunately I cannot say how well it would prevent cold sores as it has been quite some time since I’ve felt one coming on. I would recommend the product none the less for preventative measures for those who are prone to cold sores.
Easy to use
This product was given to me free ChickAdvisor to test and review.
A little goes a long way. Super easy to put on underneath your regular lip gloss or lipstick. Doesn't have a scent or flavour to it which I love.
There was one thing about it that I didn't like however. That was that it seemed to make my lips feel very hot all day long. Initially I thought it was just something that you would feel when putting it on and eventually the feeling would dissipate however, The feeling stayed with me all day. It wasn't a burning sensation, like they were on fire, but more of a intense warmth.
I haven't had a cold sore since I started using it, but then again I only get them once or maybe twice a year and I've only been using this for a couple of weeks.
Works great but is pricey
I received this free from Chick Advisor. Lipivir is Cruelty and Vegan. The ingredients seem to only be polyethylene glycols and lemon.
Packaging and Price:
Love the packaging. The colours are lovely. It's very cute and it's small enough to basically take anywhere with you. The down fall of it being small though is that it can be easily lost. Lipivir is around 27 dollars plus tax. This is the price of a high end lipstick (Bite, Urban decay, Kat von D, ect). Most high end lipsticks are 4-6g and Lipivir is 2g. Not to compare lipsticks to Lipivir directly to high end make up. However, being this price I wish the product was larger or that it was built into a lipstick instead of being designed to go under one. Particularly because you are supposed to use it twice a day.
Formula and Wear:
I really like that this product is clear. One of the things I hate about most cold swore medications is that it's usually white and/or shiny. Lipivir definitely requires VERY little of it's own product. If you put too much on you feel like you have a strange film on your lips. Which was a mistake I made quite a few times. I also made the mistake of eating it haha. It has a citrus smell and a bitter taste to it. I will say overall it works great at keeping cold swores away and I only applied it once a day. It is easy to use once you get the correct amount figured out. Also it hides very easily under any lipstick.
My General Opinions:
This is where I get the mixed feelings. I wore Lipivir for a solid week straight. I had no cold sores and then one day forgot and I immediately got a cold sore. I applied it again and it quickly went away. I worry that my body had become dependent on it. I personally would only use it when I feel a cold or cold sore coming on for this reason. If you have chronic cold sores this might be a better choice then Abreva but if you just get them here or there I would say it's comparable.
It definitely does work and does everything it claims but it's a bit pricey because of this I am undecided on if I would purchase this in the future over Abreva or any other cold sore medication.
Great product
I don’t often get these but I actually got one the week after receiving this sample. It worked really great. Didn’t dry out my skin and it went away in a couple days
