Since you describe it as a "bubble", I am wondering if it might be a herpes cold sore?  Have you ever gotten those?  They tend to appear on or near the lips, and also kinda tingle.  You can usually feel the tingling a couple days before it appears.  I get them, and Carmex (the original formula in the yellow & white jar or tube) works great for me, it kinda dries it out.  There is also Abreva, which is more expensive and which I have never tried, but which a friend of mine has mentioned works for her.
