"12) Seventy percent of the adult population gets fever blisters on their lips. Using tanning beds will not make you start getting fever blisters. But, if you are prone to getting them, just use a lip-block when tanning indoors or outdoors and/or take Lysine tablets, which are sold at health food & drug stores."


Sounds like a great way to get those lip balm sells up!

"...Seventy percent of the adult population gets fever blisters on their lips..."

Now, is that 70% of the adult population that get fever blisters get them on their lips OR 70% of adults have fever blisters?

If that is true then 70% of the adult population are carrying the herpes virus?

Yeah, I'll be moving into a bubble soon enough!

We have had some customers get them. We recommend they use an spf on the lips and if they feel an outbreak coming on cutstomers find abreva helps them.

I personally was forever getting fever blisters whenever I tanned in one of our larger beds. But since I started remembering to put SPF on before I tan, it's not a problem. Some people are just prone to them whenever they get in the sun. I know I am.
