Compeed Hydrocolloid Cold Sore Treatment Patches (15 Invisible Plasters for Cold Sores) - 12 Hours Protection from Water, Bacteria & Viruses - Discreet, Easy to Apply Patches with Patch Applicator

I think these Patches are amazing and well worth the money. They prevent soreness, itching and scabbing and certainly Heal the sore a lot quicker than cream. They can cover the unsightly sore and can also be covered with make up. The only problem I found was it left marking from the Cold sore on the Skin after Healing which again can be covered with concealer but this does eventually fade. A problem I found was that sometimes the Patch would not connect to the Skin of contact having to pick it of the strip and sometimes getting wasted also I applied the Patch on first onset but it still developed, however still very good and wouldn’t be without them now.

First time using this product and I'm very impressed. Ordered after onset, so didn't start using until 2 days after inital onset. Provides limited physical contact with the coldsore and stopped the itching and cracking that occurs. Easy to use and barely noticeable. Coldsore had cleared up in about 1 week. Will definitely ensure that I keep a stock of these in the house

Great for cold sores on the actual lip. They also make the sore less noticeable. Just make sure your lip is completely dry before applying, otherwise the patch won’t stick properly. Once on, it stays in place well & is comfortable to wear.

Really impressed with these patches. They’re thin, discreet and stay on well most of the day. Helped protect the cold sore and it seemed to heal quicker than usual, hygienic way to manage a cold sore. The only downside is after eating it doesn’t stay as well if the sore in on the lip, but overall still really useful and I’d buy again.

These are really good i used them for my son who had a verg bad coldsore that was causing a lot of pain. Really good and made a massive difference within a couple of days

A complete game changer! One week after the first tingle, my cold sore is almost healed. The patches are easy to apply, just make sure to follow the instructions. They speed up healing, reduce pain massively and conceal a lot of the gross parts of having a cold sore. The hardest part is placing the patch so it has good coverage but doesn’t sit where your lips meet, as this can cause the edge to lift. Drinking through a straw helped with longevity, and I ended up changing the patch after each meal. I went through 1 1/2 packs for one cold sore, so it’s worth stocking up if you haven’t used them before so you have plenty of spares.

The Compeed cold sore patches do help protect and speed up healing, but I found a few issues. If you put them on the inner part of the lip, they come away quite quickly and don’t stay in place. Also, for men with facial hair, the adhesion isn’t great — they tend to peel off. Useful product overall, but not perfect. Works best on smooth, hair-free areas.

great value for money, sticky lasts all day. speeds up healing and discreet.

Good. It heals the wound in a week's time

I bought this product in June and am just trying it now. I failed to get the first one to stick, but on the second try I got it easily. Surprisingly discreet, and it lasted over 12 hours while accomodating normal behavior such as eating, yawning, and sleeping. I ate red sauce though which stained the edge of it, oops. I've already ordered more.

It did the work perfectly

Excellent product, hard to purchase elsewhere. Delicate items beware when applying.

I would have given it 5 star if I had received the new version of the patch with the new applicator. I ordered two boxes (from Metropharma shipped by Amazon) and one was the new applicator and one was the old version (expiring in 9 months). The old version is horrible - it’s so hard to put on, the sticker stretches so much that once it’s glued it rolls back very quickly. Waste of money! The new version works super well and it’s easy to put on. The course of the blister is still about a week but at least you’re not suffering during that week! It’s quite well explained in the instruction booklet in a diagram. The sticker stays put for even longer than 12 hours. I would highly recommend the new version, but maybe not guaranteed from this seller.
