I get cold sores and chapped lips. I always keep my eyes peeled for a new lip balm that might just heal cold sores faster or keep my lips moisturized longer. This neosporin lip treatment didn't do a thing for me. When I first recieved a tube of it, I thought to myself, "Neosporin anti-biotic cream works, so this will too." Boy was I let down.
When I use the ointment, it seems to slide off my face. It was really oily feeling and one minute it would be on my lips and the next it would vanish without achieving anything. So I set the tube aside wondering if maybe my lips had to be seriously chapped or damaged for it to really work. Neosporin is known for going on owies aftera all. But when I did get a cold sore, and tried the lip treatment on it, I had the same results. Only now I had a soggy cold sore on my face from putting the greasy stuff on it.
The Neosporin Lip Treatment doesn't even work as chapstick to keep your lips moisturized. Nor does it work like Carmex to heal scabs and other owies. So I give it a poor rating.
