I usually use carmex. (:
I would say make sure your face is dry before going out to the cold, Also , don’t go putting your lips on soda cans or bottles to drink from, pour your drink from a clean glass..

I try to dry them out or at least keep them as dry as possible.
I try not to stress about it and let it dry quickly.
a good tube burt bees.
I use carmex everyday
I also use Burt Bees. Would love to try a new brand.
I use the petroleum-based product to cover cold sore but sometimes it did not work 🙁
Thank You
I have problems with my mouth breaking out but not exactly cold sores but I am open for any suggestions.
Avoid stress & always wear sunscreen on your lips when spending a great deal of time outside. These are both cold sore triggers.
Because of medication i am on my lips dry out heaps so i use a cold sore cream to heal them then lip balm over that
Carmex Always seems to be the best to get rid of them
