if your nose piercing is infected don't touch it with your bare hands. wet your nose ring, take a q-tip with water and soap on it to clean the inside and outside of your nose and then run water out of the faucet on it. clean it like this twice a day and it its not going away talk to your piercer about it.

Well simply put it's called soap and water. Using liquid unscented antibacterial soap (use a pea sized amount in your hand) add water to it and lather it up apply it to the piercing and work it into the piercing by moving the jewellery back and forth or rotating the ring if the piercing has a ring in it. Then under warm running water (the shower is the best place to do this) again rotate the jewellery while rinsing the piercing with the water. Do this daily (twice a day for the first two days) for about a week. Within the first 24 ~ 48 hours you will see the infection start to clear. After a week you can just rinse the piercing daily (you don't need to use soap every day once every five days should be plenty) under warm running water while moving the jewellery and the piercing should remain healthy and happy.

Can you wear makeup with a new nose piercing?

Where? on your nose? yeah but don't go close to the piercing I have,nothing really happens,it's just weird. everywhere else is fine I had make up on my nose when I pierced it. yes, as long as you are careful not to get it inside the piercing. ________________ I did nothing happened. ------------------------- You're not meant to, it could make the piercing infected. But that doesnt always happen. I'd just be careful ______________________ I wouldn't recommend it, or at least, not on the side of you nose with the piercing. Everywhere else is fine. But, keep your foundation, compact, and blush away from the area. The chances of your new piercing getting infected increases if any of your makeup products get near or into it. Better play it safe.

Does it hurt when getting your nose pierced?

Pretty much all piercings hurt - its just a matter of how much. Most nose piercing hurts about the same as getting an earlobe pierced. Of course there is also soreness after the piercing which usually goes away after it heals up (unless it gets infected).
