Really soothing and barely noticeable

I much prefer these to creams as for me creams look awful and don't last very long, also my lips get dry and so with creams I cant lick my lips for fear of licking off the cream. The patches stop itching and sooth the cold sore very well, the only issue I had was that my cold sore is in the corner of my mouth which can be quite an awkward place to put the patch.

Not really inconspicuous...

I found the packaging a little bit fiddly, and it took a while for me to work out how to place the patch on without having any contact with it.
I liked the feeling of the patch once it was on, but don't let anyone tell you it is invisible! It is so obvious! I was the butt of all jokes around here when I wore them.
Hard to say whether or not they were effective, but it feels nice to just 'do' something when you get a cold sore.

great concept but not that effective

I have given this product a go more than once now out of sheer desperation and I have been disappointed, and out of pocket, every time. The patches do not stick to your lips. The advertisment for this product shows a woman putting lipstick over the top of the patch; well I tried this and it just lifts off and makes me look like I have a cold sore twice the size. It does not live up to its expectations.

Didn't work or stick

I found that these little things didn't stick to the corner of my lip at all, and so therefore didn't work, but for the price you have to have a coldsore somewhere on your face where it's not going to get wet.

Unbelievably effective

I have had cold sores all my life and not the small discreet variety, I look like I've got gravel rash.

It lives up to it's claims 100%. The healing time is 75% and pain relief is 100% as is the itch relief.

I have tried the foundation and lipstick and it does actually cover it - however the patch (when you learn to apply it correctly) does a nice job of hiding the cold sore on it's own. i don't like to wear makeup when I'm infected, I'm too afraid of accidental additional infection - but I had to test it.

The best so far

These patches beat any cream. I always end up with this horrible big lumpy scab which keeps me indoors for a few days but with the patch it generally does'nt happen. Unfortunantly my cold sores don't go away in a couple of days unlike for some but at least I can hide it a little, and the best tip is get some lip gloss thats skin coloured and just dab a bit over the patch where you can see the yellow blister, it hides it even more.

Goodbye Cold Sores, Hello Relief

Compeed patches are the best thing for cold sore sufferers since sliced bread. First time I used them was on a developed cold sore, I could not believe how it soothed my spot as soon as I had applied it, then waking up with a practically fully cleared sore I was convinced. I have thrown out all my creams and will not use anything else, this is such a great product it is unbelievable. I also started handing them out like Lollies to all of my friends and family who are sufferers as I thought it was my Civil Duty. Nearly all of them were amazed especially at the soothing effect and how quickly it works, creams just do not cut it now that Compeed has landed.”

yes and no...

I've had coldsores since I was a kid, but not frequently and always just a crack in the side of the mouth - but last week I developed this massive one on my lower lip/under lip area so big it almost had its own postcode! I had a few seminars to attend to thought I'd try the Compeed patches to cover it up so it wouldn't seem so bad and it seemed to do its job, howver I think it made the part of the sore that was just below my lip seem more red and visible. I couldn't eat or drink with it on as it would just start to peel off but other than that it seemed to work well. I used it over night as well but found it better to leave it off to dry it out quicker.

I don't really think it helped heal it quicker - tho this could be because it was the first one i've ever had that's been this big before so it just could have been a super stubborn bugger.

I'll definitely keep them handy for future though as they did come in handy for when I needed to make an appearance outside work/home!
