Works well along with other treatments

I have dealt with cold sores my entire life so I decided to give the Polysporin cold sore healing patches a try. They're a little tricky to get on at first but I got the hang of it. Wearing it doesn't really feel like anything, it's just like wearing a band-aid. I don't really feel like it helps my cold sores heal any faster so I use it when I need to go out and the creams when I'm at home. You definitely can't wear make up on top of it, the texture is really smooth and not quite like it. However it definitely helps the look of the blistery type of cold sores by sort of blurring it out. Up close you can see the patch but from normal conversation distance it is most likely not noticeable. The patches are a little pricey but if hiding the cold sore if important to you then definitely worth it.

To protect your loved ones it’s a good deal

I use these to mainly protect my kids from getting the germs when I have an active cold sore.
They want to kiss mom and I don’t ever wanna tell them no.
I find I have to change them often and that’s not counting if I eat or drink with one on.
But so far so good with the kids
So I will buy them
But I wish the adhesive worked better, especially for the price

I would definitely buy again.

Even though they cost a lot they really work awesome. I was getting cold sores a lot last winter and decided to give them a try. The patch sticks well and within days they were healing the cold sores. Love them and will definitely tell people I know that they work.

I would buy this product again!

This product is great to cover up that pesky cold sore, however no matter how dry I try to keep my lips the patch still kept coming off. Considering the price of these patches I would recommend buying the cream and applying it orally and only using the patches at night.

Not the product for me

I am prone to coldsores and thought I would try this instead of my usual type but I found it did not help me in the way I wanted it to. For the cost I was not impressed with how it worked for me. Would not get again.

It works and it is fast.

Easy to put on patches. Doesnt sting or hurt. Can easily put lipstick/moisturizer overtop without noticing it. Can leave on for 8 hours at a time. Will start healing with the first patch. They are expensive, however they work so you don't need to keep reapplying and buying like ointments. Great product. I keep it on me at all times.

Waste of your money absolutely does not work

When this product came out i was so excited to try it . I was almost positive it would b the best out there only because it was made by polysporine so it had to be good !!!! Boy was I sadly disappointed big time, it doesn't stay on it's just very useless thing I've ever tried to be honest. Sorry but that was my experience....

Awesome product

I HAVE been plagued with cold sores my whole life. I can honestly say this is a great product that has made a lot of difference in my life. I never leave the house without some in my backpack. Life is awesome with polysporin

Disappointed

I read some reviews online before purchasing it and some people have said it covers really well and you can even put makeup over the patch. It was very noticeable and I felt ridiculous wearing it. It also just made the cold sore more infected.

Felt ridiculous

So this product isn't too noticeable but it is still visible. I found it hid cold sores pretty well but did not help eliminate them. Even if used as soon as the tingling started it didn't make much or any difference. If anything it showed up quicker. Can't honestly recommend.
