I have tried this product and I would say that it works well on me. I found that it was a bit tricky the very first time when I opened it and applied it to my skin but afterwards, I had no problem. It hides out the ugly part on my skin and it helps to heal.

I like this product!!!! I always get a cold sore in autumn. Polysporin really helps me! I can see result on the next day! It's awesome!

I've had cold sores for as long as I can remember. I used to have them as a kid and going to school trying to explain to people what it was difficult and hard on my confidence. Even now as an adult, I work in a public place where I see different people everyday. Having cold sores has always made me self conscious, I used to always lick my lips, or fold them in as a way to mask the cold sore if I seen someone looking at it. I seen a commercial for these a long time ago and didn't believe it. How in the world is it possible to hide a giant red cold sore right smack on your lips?? I eventually got desperate and decide to try them. These cold sore patches are like little pieces of round tape. Its clear so it will blend in with whatever your skin colour may be and its also extremely easy to cover up with makeup. Its like a little sticker you smooth out onto the cold sore, and its main features are that it heals faster, it masks the redness of the cold sore as well as the giant bump, it relieves any pain/tingling/burning the cold sore brings, it prevents it from scabbing over, which usually leads it to cracking and bleeding, and it also helps protect it from contamination. What I normally do is wash my cold sore (With clean hands and not directly with a bar of soap), then I pat it dry with paper towel (Not a bath towel unless its clean and not going to be reused again), and then I smooth out the cold sore patch onto my cold sore making sure its directly in the middle, then I just gently smooth out the sides making sure its secure. My one and only dislike is that sometimes after eating (If its a sandwich or something that touches my lips alot), I have to re apply a new patch because the top of it starts to peel off. But it will always be my go to when I have a cold sore, I would never go back to using medicated creams.

I use it every time I get a cold sore and very happy how it words

Protect Cold Sore from runing and healing faster

Polysporin was my Mother's go to product in treating the numerous cuts and scrapes her 5 children had and time and again it proved to be the fastest healing ointment. I have children of my own now and I continue this tradition as I am sure my children will. Polysporin not only helps wounds heal faster but it minimizes the scaring. Polysporins new cold sore patches have proven just as effective. They are the fastest working treatment that I have found

Polysporin has been around for along long time, that in it itself should tell you something, that means it is for its weight in gold......

It never fails, I tend to get cold sores a few days before my vacation or big event. They are embarassing and when I use a cream to remove them, they look even worse. I received a Johnson and Johnson coupon and saw a funny tv commercial for the patches so i decided to try them out. They work exactly as they claim. What I really like is that when I use them during the day, I can apply my lipstick and liner over top and nobody knows that I have a cold sore. Better yet, the cold sore is gone quickly. They are now my go-to brand when I get a cold sore. One thing that I would tell people is to shop around. For some reason there are dramatic price differences depending on where you buy them from.

I work in the Health Care field. I have used many products for cold sores but have always been concerned that I would inadvertanly touch the sore and spread it around. This patch has solved this problem for me. It heals the open area and I don't have to worry about spreading the virus around. By the way, I started getting cold sores when a coworker borrowed my pen and unbeknowing to me, put it in her mouth.

I have had cold sores for most of my adult life. Plain and simple-Polysporin cold sore patches are the only thing that works for me!!! And...the great thing is that no one knows that u are wearing them! Can't say enough about how this product has made my life better!!!!
