Alright, now that that's out of the way, let's dive right in!
Always start by giving your hands a good wash. You don't want to transfer any dirt or bacteria to your piercing. Make sure you don't skip this step. For an added layer of protection, you might also consider wearing gloves.
We personally vouch for neilmed saline spray for piercings. It's gentle, and guess what? You can even find it on our site. Now, here's a tip: If your piercing is new, avoid cotton swabs or anything fibrous; they could snag. But if you have a well-healed piercing then cotton swabs are just fine to use.
Repeat on the other side if you have piercings on both nostrils.
After cleaning, grab a clean Kleenex or paper towel. Remember, you're just dabbing – no sliding or rubbing. Sliding can snag your jewelry, and you certainly don't want that. Just dab away any excess moisture.
Even if you have a completely healed piercing, it's always important prioritize aftercare. Regular cleaning keeps nasty bacteria at bay, ensuring piercings stay infection-free and beautiful.
Remember, clean piercings are happy piercings!
