How do I do my makeup with a NG/NJ Tube

For the time being I have an NJ tube and I have found that I have had to make a few adjustments in terms of makeup. But just because you are sick and have a feeding tube it doesn't mean you can't have fun with makeup so here are the tips I have. But remember makeup is FUN so do what you want these are just tips that I have found useful.

1) Don't get the foundation on or under the tape as it won't stick- I learnt that the hard way!

2) You can still have blush on the side where the tube isn't taped- just use a natural colour so that it doesn't look to obvious

3) I avoid highlight especially on the nose area if your nose is uncovered or only covered a little bit as you don't want to draw attention to the tube (at least I don't)

4) If you want to do something different to makeup you can draw pictures on your tape- I drew this christmas tree for a christmas party

5) I would spend more time on the eyes and lips than the face as it will help draw away from the face and help to draw attention to your eyes or lips instead of the tube.

6) Most of all HAVE FUN!!!
