Calamine lotion! It helps dry up chicken pox, which are a form of herpes. Just dab a little on the blister to cover it completely before bed, and in the morning it should dry the bubble out. To encourage a bubble for faster healing, I suggest using Zovirax. Patches of pink may stick to the coldsore, so cover it with a liquid makeup before going out.
