Q What's the best way to cover up a nasty cold sore?
A First, rub a protective coat of petroleum jelly on top of it," says NYC dermatologist Paul Jarrod Frank. Or try a healing cold sore cream, such as Abreva Cold Sore Treatment, $14.99, or Aveeno Advanced Relief Cold Sore Treatment, $10.99. Then dab on a swipe or two of concealer afterward. That way, the makeup will adhere to the slippery topcoat, not the scabby skin underneath.
