“I love the liquorice balm. I'm premenopausal and getting a lot more cold sores than usual. I have read that these are a symptom.
I love the smell and the fact that the balm isn't thick and greasy.
I'm using it twice a day and always use some at bedtime.
My lips tingle slightly after use.
I'm sure that means it is working.
No flare up as yet.”
“I've used other products from skinshop and have always been very happy. Having read the reviews I had high hopes for the lip balm to. Sadly to say I'm disappointed. A thin, greasy almost grainy in texture balm that doesn't do as it says on to tin. Having to reapply this way more frequently then other considerably cheaper balms.”
“I have suffered with large cold sores for most of my life. They spread very quickly and cover most of my top lip. I received this product a couple of days before I started with a very bad cold. I started to use it thinly around the areas where the sores appear, and I didn't get a chapped lips or cold sores. Early days, but will make sure I always have some in.”
“I have found that a lot of lip balms leave my lips more dry than usual if I stop using them. This one is nice and oily and doesn't cause a problem if I forget to use it. The only negative is the price as it is quite expensive for such a small pot.”
“I bought this product a couple of months ago and have always suffered with coldsores. I've used the balm daily and my lips have never been in such good condition. I've only had 1 outbreak of a coldsore since using them and it cleared within 4 days with no itching or big red marks, it really is fantastic.”
“Whilst the Liquorice Balm is a great product for your Lips I have found that it works amazingly if you have Insect / Gnat bites. I tried it one day when that is all I had in my handbag and desperate for my Gnat bites to stop itching. Just rub over the bite and within 5-10 minutes no more itching for hours. I always carry a pot throughout the summer and so many of my friends have now tried Lip balm for bites and everyone says the same, they are amazed the bites have stopped itching.
I would recommend everyone tries the Liquorice Balm for Insect bites.”
