Another problem, of which women and men with herpes on the lip suffer greatly, is the aesthetic component: The highly swollen lip with crusted sores affect the appearance significantly and the sufferers feel almost reduced to the cold sore at the time of the outbreak, because they feel that the eyes of the interlocutor wander again to the diseased area and disgust emerges in the behavior of the opponent.

The bad thing: The unsightly skin change cannot be due to the unevenness also from a makeup professional with instructions readily with patches, camouflage and face powder or lipstick cover.

It should also be largely dispensed with the use of cosmetics to the affected areas during the outbreak in order to avoid contact infection of other skin areas about the make-up sponge or a new infection while reusing products.

Curing may also be retarded if the contents of the make-up products enter into the wound.

Once again, cold sores: What to do?
It is best therefore, to renounce entirely during the outbreak on makeup and to rise in this period also contact lenses on the glasses. This is important because usually a treatment of the vesicles occurs with antiviral creams and can be avoided, that the virus can spread through a careless rubbing the eye area after application.
