Hey

what's the best way you guys try and hide or (make it reasonably seem better anyway) your coldsore when you get them?

Was wondering if there's any stuff out there that's actually made to hide it?

Thanks!

Thanks for your help....  does any put any makeup on it though?

aaawwww I feel so sorry for you!  I know how it feels, I hope it goes soon!

Well, I never do anything with coldsores when I get them..and they're horrible, but I've seen other girls who have put something on them and their's don't seem that bad at all.  hhhmmmmmm   

Goodness im prone to the rascals, it makes me so angry. I think im cooking one up on my bottom lip as we speak.

Tea tree oil seems to help to heal them, i find the coldsore creams are pretty frigging useless and that they make them go all blistery quicker. But thats just because coldsores make me so angry.

As for hiding them... depends where it is really. If its planted the outside edges of your lip you can use foundation and lipliner to disguise it. Just make sure to use disposable brushes or apply with a cotton bud.. you dont want to infect your makeup stuff or make the coldsore worse/spread it. Just apply foundation to the edge of your lips, this will cover the part of the coldsore on your skin, whereas the lipliner will help to give the appearance of smooth edged lips. try using vaseline or something similar to keep it moist, when coldsores go crusty they are verrry noticable and any makeup you use to hide it will just cake and crack.

Ive never tried the patches although i think i just might.
You just have to remember you wont be able to fully hide it, just help it not to look so angry and obvious.
