Apparently we have a large number of players with dry lips and for that reason I have included some information on what I use regularly on my lips….not that means anything.
This is what I have been using for years after a friend recommended it. It is a little more greasy than some of the other products but it seems to work well as indicated by the following users comments-
Absulutely Amazing
I have used Expensive cold sore meds, i have even gone to a dermatologist but to no avail.. I have sufferd with severe immune issues relating to the herpes virus. I cannot believe that something so simple and inexpensive and easy to use has solved the problems with sores, pain and severe discomfort. I send jars and jars up to my relatives in Canada as it is not available there yet. THANK YOU SO MUCH

GOD SEND!!!!!!!!
I’m just gonna say it. I have big lips. NO bones about it. And with big lips come dryness. They get very dry, very quick, especially at night, and ESPECIALLY if I’m breathing through my mouth. I use to use a lip balm from benefit cosmetics to put on my lips at night. It was very thick and soothing and would stay on ALL NIGHT. But they don’t make it anymore. So I was searching and searching for something. Vaseline didn’t stay on all night, and all the other ones kinda just wore off or my lips kinda “sucked” it all in, like a flower in a dry pot..lol. So I came across this stuff, I thought it would be a good thing to try, because I also can get cold sores (apparently very easily). I think non-cold sore-ers have the virus on their lips and they can pass it to us cold sore people without ever getting it themselves (yeah them). This stuff is MAGIC. MAGIC I tell ya. Not only does it keep my lips moist throughout the night but it minimizes the number of cold sores I get and the length of time they stay. AND, the best part, they stay even less that before my normal regime to make them go away. Typically I can tell the very second a cold sore is about to pop, and I slather on Abreva and pop about 4-5 L-Lysine tablets and continue that regime for a couple of days. That reduces the amount I have to suffer from these ghastly things by a great deal, but now this ointment makes it EVEN SHORTER!. I highly recommend it.

I would buy this product again & again!!
I used it all day long for a couple of days and the cold sore never fully developed.. no embarassing scab, no oozing, you really couldn’t even see it after I applied. Love it! Would highly recommend this product to anyone!

Simply THE best , you need this stuff!
This is wonderful stuff! I use it since I tend to have cracked chapped lips in winter or in too much sun-use it with the first tingling sign of cold sore/fever blister. For me, it Reduces the overall duration of cold sore/ fever blister too. I have used on sratches, small scrapes and works wonders for that as well. No fragrance really is a positive. Only negative I can think of is If applied in excess, can feel greasy for a bit-so be aware of how much you are using!
This is effective and worth the money.

My family loves it!
My family has been using this for many years but it is difficult to find in stores. This is the best thing that we have ever found for cold sore and dry lips. I have even used it on sore chapped hands and bleeding cuticles.
The ony thing that would make it better would be an easier way to apply it to ones lips.

I have adult braces…
and I was getting horribly chapped lips. This stuff saved me. As long as I keep using it, it keeps my lips soft and fends off the chapping. It has a nice consistency and no smell. The price is very comparable to buying several tubes of chapstick. I highly recommend it!!
