I did this for a couple of years. Word of caution: start slow and build! The limits of bare feet getting blisters are likely sparing you from bigger issues if you have spent most of your life with a rise in the heel of shoe. Feet take time to change, think months and years. Recommend also getting zero rise shoes for every day living so it's not just exercise.

As for the surface issue of blisters, the callouses will form. Let it take some time. These days I run using Merrell Vapors. Do kind of miss the days of running truly barefoot. Maybe I'll get back to it. At this point it's nice to know the only thing I'd have to worry about would be getting the callouses back.
