oldsore 5ml

I have used old sure oil and brought the sachets.
Didnt prevent coldsores and didn't reduce the healing time for me personally. In fact my last cold sore was the worst I've ever had and I was religious with applying.

I've always suffered with really bad cold sores and I don't always get that tingly feeling before one is coming so it is hard for me to catch them so early on, but I couldn't live without this product now.

I've used it a few times now and it doesn't get rid of mine within 24 hours but it does take away the swelling (and my lips triple in size).

It also makes my cold sore almost invisible which Is amazing as I find them super embarrassing.

Healing time is cut from over 2 weeks to a few days, 4 max. I'm also usually left with purple scaring once the cold sore has gone and I've found this product helps the discolouration.

Small packaging makes it so easy and discrete carrying it around.

You do need to be re applying this often. The more, the better. I set an alarm for every 30 min and although it's can be annoying it is worth it.

The smell is quite intense, the taste isn't nice either and can be drying but 100% worth it.

Excellent product after fighting cold sores for many years, all other creams/treatments are now obsolete

PROS

Catch the sore on day one and it will never develop

Improved healing time for sure

You can feel the oil working and dissolving the cold sore in the crusty stage and it dissolves it right off

Less severe symptoms

CONS

Will dry your lips out if over applied so be careful where you put it!

Tastes bad if you get it in your mouth 😂

When used with lip balm can spread infection (very occasionally)

Ok so having had to manage cold sores of varying severity over the years and trying every oitment, patch or gimick on the planet i thought i would try Oldsore.

This recent outbreak was on and below my lip and there were about 5 of them together so I was starring down the barrel of a mess of crusty scabs for all of Christmas and New year.

I first felt the dreaded tingling and pulsating on Monday night adn my first application of Oldsore started onn Monday night adn then upon waking I continued the treatment. Having read the reviews, what I noticed is alot of people were talking about frequency, so i made sure i was applying avery 15-20 mins. By Tuesday night I nearly buckled and gave in, but then I awoke on Wednesday to (almost) healed coldsores.

I continued the frequent application throughout Wenesday adn on Thursday, whilst still quite red, the five coldsores were practically gone and its now just the site in its final healing stages. Had i left thsi or used an oitment, i probably would have been looking at two weeks before i was at this phase.

For those who understand the benefits of Bio-oil, then in my opinion this is similar in that it provides a dry oil type situation where the coldsore can heal whilst the oil manages the scabbing and cracking. the natural ingrediaents deal with teh virus itself.

Cons: If you dont like teatree or peepermint then you wont like this. Its a very strong smell and exteremly bitter if you accidently get it in your mouth. I think I would always use this is the coldsore is not actually near the inside of my lip as there is no way you could put this on and keep tasting it. It does sting and burn a little so you need to be aware of that. The biggest thing is frequency of application. In three days i have used 70% of a tiny bottle, it needs to be as continuous as you can do it. Its not magic, you do need to take accountability of how often you put it on.

But all in all I was very impressed and i am now looking forwards to a Christmas with a fully healed multiple cold sore site. i am going to uy some more to have in stock, but will make the decision if I use it on the next one depending where it appears.

Very good though! I wasnt sure and reading lots of mixed reviews, It doesnt take them away in 24 hours (not mine anyway) but by day 3 they are in teh latter stages.

I never leave a review for any purchases I make but I had to make an exception for this little bottle of gold! I was sceptical when I bought this as I didn’t think anything could cure a cold sore before it broke out. But how wrong was I. I woke with the usual swelling on my lip & tingling yesterday & thought oh great just in time for Xmas (a week away) Applied this ointment throughout the day & it has disappeared the day after! This stuff is amazing! 100% would recommend to a regular cold sore sufferer like myself! Wish I had found it sooner!
