Makeup vs nose ring?

A

Does anyone have any tips on how to keep makeup from getting on your nose ring? It seems like no matter how careful I try to be it still gets on it. Removing it to do my makeup isn’t an option right now. When I try to clean it up after with a qtip it doesn’t really work. Sometimes I’ll avoid the area entirely, have a bare spot on my foundation, and STILL get makeup on it. I don’t understand. It breaks the laws of physics.😂
