Would love to try the Polysporin Cold Sore patch. We love Polysporin at our home. It works very well. When my daughter gets hurt playing or gets cut or scratch from anywhere she will be crying and will be saying I want polysporin. It is so funny. I am pretty sure the patch works very well as well.
I purchased this because the commercial sold me on this. Who wouldn't like to make a cold sore invisible. I attempted to use this 2 days in a row but both times the patch came off within 2 hours. This was due to drinking a coffee.
With the changes in the season happening FAST it seems like I'm not the only one suffering with cold sores! I was immediately impressed with how QUICK the Polysporin Cold Sore Healing Patch starts to work, I don't like slathering stuff all over my face so I really enjoy the quick application that not only helps cover the ugliness but also helps with the pain. Polysporin is a brand I already trust, so I was pretty quick to try this one! :)
I have only tried this once or twice and from those time it worked but I don't see a huge difference from other cold sore treatments. The plus side is that with this patch you can put makeup over it.
Someone in my family has tried this product and loved it,, very effective,,,Can't wait to try it
I'm not sure it worked any better than my usual remedy - dabbing peroxide directly onto the cold sore several times a day to keep the area clean and disinfected and help dry the sores out faster - but I loved being able to wear makeup over the patch. No need to skip my usual lipstick or gloss, and it certainly did a better job of camouflaging the sore than my usual sad attempts with concealer and/or foundation.
Given the price I probably wouldn't buy it again unless I found myself dealing with a cold sore and having to attend a special event (party, wedding, restaurant outing, etc.) but if I wasn't living on a tight budget I'd definitely keep a supply of these in my medicine cabinet.
I've had cold sores once or twice a year for the last 20 years, so my breakouts aren't as severe as they used to be (the body gets used to the virus, so breakouts are less severe as time passes). I can't say how this would handle a huge breakout, but it did a fine job on a small one (less than 1cm across in the lower left corner of my lip) .
Worked as well as others except I could use concealer on it. I am pretty picky so I I could still it. Not too bad.
This product is a life saver! I suffer from many cold sores during the year and I hate it when it is the only thing people look at when I have one. With these strips I just apply one and it is concealed and barley showing! I love how I can apply my makeup so smoothly on top of it. It truly is a life saver and I recommend them to anyone who suffers through cold sores. These are great!
nothing better then to have complete relief when it comes to cold sores. it is a great cover up method with the plus of having treatment at the same time. all poly products ROCK!!
I really enjoy Polysporin Cold Sore Healing Patch for when I have cold sores. My boyfriend using this product a lot as well. It helps to heal them quickly and painlessly. I would recommend this product to others suffering from this as well.
