Piercings don't need moisturizer, nor do they need any thing other than soap and water during normal cleaning. The body will deal with tissue dryness on it's own. Putting anything like Lubriderm or the like on a piercing will choke the piercing from breathing as it should. Just leave it alone, it will heal.
My neighbor says that Lubriderm or GoldBond Ultimate is what he has found to be the most effective treatment for his son. That is the main reason that I will only use one or the other, and whatever you're using, if it's not one of these, you are cheating yourself. I prefer Lubriderm because when my Dad was hospitalized with cancer in 1977, Lubriderm was used exclusively by the Baptist Hospital in Columbia, SC.
Yes, you can use ear piercing cleaner on a nose piercing.
I think Lubriderm changed to a cheaper pump a few years ago. I use the top of a shampoo bottle instead of the pump.

One could purchase Lubriderm hand cream from multiple locations. For example, it is sold on the Drugstore website, and is also available at Walgreens.
Alcohol should not be used on any piercing. Soaking your piercing in sea salt is best. you can also use non scented antibacterial soap to clean your piercing
Around the piercing but not on the piercing.
Yes. Aquaphor, Lubriderm or Curel are also excellent. Stay away from Neosporin, A&D, Vaseline and triple antibiotic ointment.
If he said it was good to use I guess it is. This was a professional piercing wasn't it? If it wasn't call a shop and ask them what to use.
There is no such type of piercing but there is clear body jewelry, also called retainers. Retainers are always good to use if you don't want a piercing to close up but also not show. When getting a new piercing the piercer cannot put that material in the piercing because its not the right type of material for the piercing to heal around. They will use 316LVM steel jewelry but once the piercing is healed you can put a retainer in. Hope that answers the question.
No, Claire's don't do belly piercing. Claire's don't actually do piercing at all, they use a piercing gun which is not the same thing, and legally can only be used on earlobes. If you want any sort of piercing you should always go to a piercing studio.
You never use any type of alcohol to clean any piercing. Use a mixture of natural sea salt and warm water. Alcohol kills whats helping your piercing heal.
