Cold Weather Lip Care Must-Have: Herpecin L for Hydration, Protection, and Healing

The cold weather has finally arrived here in Georgia. So, I am really trying to up my game with keeping my skin, hair, and lips extra hydrated and protected. Cold weather can really wreak havoc and cause dryness across the board. I am very prone to dry lips and find the cold season to be an especially difficult time. Dry lips can be so uncomfortable...not to mention, not cute! So, when cold weather rolls around, I try to use the best lip products available for hydration, protection, and healing.

I have some tips to share about how you can increase your lip hydration game during this cold season. Plus, you can learn more about an awesome product that is really working for my for lip care: Herpecin L! 


Sometimes a product that is designed for a specific purpose, can suprise you as being a stand out product in a totally different way. I love finding alternative uses for well-known products. Not to mention, I love discovering the "hidden gems" in the product world. You know...those special discoveries...the unsung heros of the drugstore world. This is what I have found in Herpecin: a hidden gem!

While I do not struggle with cold sores personally, I do suffer from dry lips. When I heard how wonderful Herpecin is for dry lips, I knew that I just had to try it...and I am so glad that I did! I love the silky smooth feeling that this product gives my lips. Consistant use has left me with comfortable and soft lips that are protected with the added SPF!

There seems to be such a taboo about talking about oral herpes. Honestly, we shouldn't feel embarrased to talk about it because guess how many people have it? The majority. So, lets have more conversations and help to stop the herpes stigma. It’s absolutely nothing to be embarrassed about. So, let’s spread the word and educate people, help them feel more comfortable, and provide solutions.

What is Oral Herpes?
Oral herpes is a common infection of the mouth area that is caused by herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1). Fifty to eighty-percent of U.S. adults have oral herpes. According to the National Institutes of Health, about 90 percent of adults have been exposed to the virus by age 50. Oral Herpes is can also be referred to as Cold Sores or Fever Blisters.  Most people get HSV-1 during infancy or childhood from a family member or friend. It can be transmitted by kissing or sharing eating utensils or towels. HSV-1 is extremely contagious. In fact, 67% of the world population under age 50 has HSV-1.

About Herpecin L:
Herpecin L is a product that provides moisturizing protection and relief from cold sores. Herpecin L can be used year round and it is not just for cold sores. It is more hydrating than other lip treatments that I have tried. Plus, it contains SPF. I love using lip products that do double duty as far as moisture plus sun protection. So, you can apply Herpecin L and know that your lips will be protected from sun damage. Continuous use protects lips while preventing painful cracking of lips. In addition, Herpecin L promotes healing of cold sores without numbing nor drying while also providing relief from the pain and general discomfort of cold sores.

Herpecin L provides instant relief from the discomfort of cold sores while at the same time protecting the lips with medication that speeds up recovery so you don’t have to suffer from cold sores for a week or longer.

This little drugstore gem can be used as needed for dry lips. I like using it multiple times per day. I keep one in my purse, one at my desk, one at my bedside, etc. I find that having lip treatments at-the-ready increases the amount that I apply. So, I totally recommend that you keep a few within reach around your home, in your car, and in your handbag. That way, you will always have one on hand! During the cold weather season, it is essential that I apply a lip treatment product multiple times a day to combat the effects of the cold weather and they dry air. So, reapply, reapply, and reapply! Consistant use of Herpecin L will heal your dry lips and your cold sores. It works awesome as a preventative treatment as well. So, keep on applying! Plus, I really enjoy the somewhat medicinal (yet also a little bit vanilla-ish) scent. The Herpecin L lip balm has such a smooth and creamy feel going on. It instantly soothes my lips and leaves them feeling super soft. Plus, I can feel confident that Herpecin L leaves my lips protected.


Take comfort in the fact that there is something that you can do to treat and prevent cold sore outbreaks as well as prevent and treat dry lips. Herpecin L is an amazing and effective lip treatment. Herpecin L is a pharmacist-recommended product that treats, protects, and provides relief from cold sores/fever blisters, the sun, dry lips, and lip chapping. Herpecin L is safe to use every day (and multiple times a day!) to help relieve and protect painful cracking of lips. Herpecin L promotes healing of cold sores and dry/cracked lips without numbing or drying. The product is uniquely formulated with dimethicone for protection, and sunscreens to help guard against the sun's harmful rays.

Ya'll, don't be embarrased by your cold sores! Remember that 50-80% US adults have oral herpes. So, when you get a cold sore, treat it with Herpecin L. Herpecin L contains medication that speeds up recovery so you don’t have to suffer from cold sores for a week or longer.

Thanks so much for reading! Here is to comfortable and smooth lips during this cold season. 
XOXO!!!

Neova's Cu3 Intensive Lip Repair Treatment with Copper Peptide Compex

Press Sample
This product, sent to me for review from Neova, is like a treatment serum for your lips! Neova's Cu3 Intensive Lip Repair treatment goes way beyond traditional lip moisturizers! You are getting an anti-aging formula that helps to repair the lips while providing excellent hydration!

I really struggle with dry lips. To dive into a personal matter, I have Sjogren's Syndrome (or more specifically Undifferentiated Connective Tissue Disease). This autoimmune condition causes extreme dryness of the mouth, lips, and eyes. I am always thirsty and my lips are always painfully dry (unless I battle it with amazing lip moisturizers!). Dry eyes are not really a problem for me but dry lips sure are! Often they feel so dry that I get a hot/buring sensation. Not fun at all! So, needless to say, I am always looking for lip moisturizers that are *extremely* moisturizing, healing, and nourishing. I almost always have a lip balm or lip moisturizer within arms reach as my lips are just not comfortable without something on them.

LUSH mini-haul and review (total rave!!!) :)



I <3 LUSH!!!

OMG...where has LUSH been all my life! I am lucky enough to live about 3 miles from 2 different LUSH stores, but somehow never experimented with LUSH products until now! I know!!! And, for me...the bath product queen! :) Seriously, I think I have found my new fav store!!! :) Can you all feel my excitement here??? Yes, I have heard the raves, but it wasn't until I actually went into the store (while Christmas shopping) and "experienced" LUSH that I fell in love! Granted, I sneezed a few times in the store (I have bad allergies) and the product fragrances...while wonderful...are a little overwhelming when you first enter the store. But, not worries, I sneezed a few times and then got used to it. And, proceeded to smell *everything*!!! YUMMY!!!

First off, you have gotta love the whole "homemade" and "fresh" product idea! The sales person "walked me through" my entire shopping experience there (and, I am a sucker for good customer service!). As soon as I explained that I was gift shopping, she had a ton of ideas and let me test out a ton of products! :) She seemed genuinely enthused about the brand which is always cool. I love it that most items are not packaged...the soaps, scrubs, bath bombs, etc...all look like little pieces of art! Just grab a basket in the store and go bananas with some wonderful and *totally unique* items! Interesting too how the products have a freshness date and many are even packaged like actual foods (the packaging looks like to-go or grocery containers, cute in a campy way!)

Well, I don't want to give away my surprise presents for my 10-year old Niece, Mollee (as she does read my blog!), but lemme tell ya...there are some CUTE items if you are shopping for a pre-teen!!! I had just the best time picking out things for her the LUSH store! Maybe I will have her post a mini-review here after she has had a chance to test out some of her items! :)

So, I am sure this is the first of MANY LUSH posts on this blog! I got two products for myself...



The Lip Scrub in Bubble Gum:

My lips get so dry in the winter! I have seen some reviews online and on YouTube about this wonderful scrub (and, most recently, on my friend Shaylee's blog Check out her Lip-scrub review here: Cosmetically Curious). I just had to try this. Basically it is a bubble gum flavored sugar scrub...that you can actually eat off your lips when you are done. Who wouldn't love trying this! I just rubbed a small amount on my clean dry lips and gently scrubbed and then licked off! That's all there is too it! Simple and effective. Just sugar in a mositurizing oil base. So, easy! You get a ton of product, so this will last me a long time. The scent and the flavor of this lip scrub is TDF! And, honestly, I think that I will never stray from LUSH from this point forward when I need some lip exfoliation. I am planning on do a weekly or bi-weekly lip treatment with this! After I exfoliated, my lips felt very soft and moisturized! :) I topped with some vasaline just for good measure (but I am sure that LUSH has some great lip moisturizers?).



Wiccy Magic Muscles Massage Bar:

WOW!!! I love this unique product!!! My Mom and I actually "split" this bar since we were both interested in trying it (I literally just used a kitchen knife to split it in half...worked great!).  We both totally love it! After a long day of Christmas shopping with aching feet, this product really called to us as it is supposed to soothe tired achy muscles and fight exhaustion. Just what we needed! :) It is a creamy bar with cinnamon leaf oil (smells divine!) and Aduki beans.

It applies very creamy and then turns "wet". For you exercisers out there...this is like a "natural" Ben Gay (or any medicated muscle rub). I do a lot of running and exercising, so I am no stranger to sore achy muscles. I actually use medicated rubs quite frequently, but can't stand the smell of them. So, from now on I can just use the Wiccy Magic Bar instead!!!

It immediately feels stimulating and "warm/cool" when you apply it. Really, both Mom and myself felt immediate relief in our tired achy legs. Plus, the scent is very soothing. I will continue to use this and repurchase many times (I am sure!). Once it sinks in it leaves your skin feeling very moisturized. The Aduki beans provide a little bit more pressure to your skin when applying (like a massage).  I really enjoyed rubbing this bar onto my skin. I even had my husband rub my back with this. LOVE it!!! Highly recommend. I am actually very curious to investigate the rest of the range of massage bars. If they are as good as this one, I can't wait to try more! I will actually look forward to coming home after working out to rub this bar on any achy overworked muscles! LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! This!!!! :)

So, just had to post a quick little rave for these LUSH products! :) You LUSH users out there...what else should I try from this awesome brand??? I am a big bath taker, so I am interested in the Bath Bombs for sure...and probably more massage bars!

XOXO!
