"Thou knowest the mask of night is on my face,
Else would a maiden blush bepaint my cheek."
She says she is wearing a mask, because he cannot see her face in the darkness, which covers her face like a mask. This is interesting considering that when they first met, Romeo was wearing the mask.
Anyway she says that if she wasn't wearing the mask of night, a maiden blush would paint her cheek. This does not mean that she would be applying makeup and adding a little blush to her cheeks. It's not literal. It means that her cheeks would be coloured as if they were painted, if she wasn't invisible to him.

What is the literary device in whats in a name that which you call a rose by any other word would smell as sweet?
Juliet meant that like if a rose was called anything else it would still smell sweet, referring to Romeo, saying that if he were named anything else he would still be sweet despite his last name. He is still the same guy even if he is a Montague, so if it is only a matter of names he could change names, or if he didn't want to, she would change hers and no longer be a Capulet.

What is the nurse's opinion of Paris in romeo and Juliet?
He's a man of wax. That's a good thing, apparently. However, it does seem that the nurse would say this about any suitor for Juliet who was more or less male. After saying that about Paris, she is extremely complimentary about Romeo in Act II Scene 5. Then when it seems convenient to do so, suddenly (in Act III Scene 5) she's complimenting Paris again: "O! He's a lovely gentleman; Romeo's a dishclout to him."
