I don't know about tape, as I've never tried it. With glue, once its off, you have to reglue. But if you have the nose on properly, its not easy to yank it off. Only times mine ever came loose was due to excessive sweating, and that's maybe 2 or 3 times over 10 years.
The trick to securing the nose well is making sure both halves are on the "dryer" side of tacky before you put it on.
Just for those who haven't used something like this before: The process is that you first brush the glue on inside of the nose, then place the clown nose on your real nose, then take it off again. This places the glue where it needs to be. (At this point I usually use the glue brush to touch up both the clown nose and the real one...just to make sure its even) Then you wait until the glue has reached maximum tackiness, then place the clown nose where it should be, and press it gently but firmly for a good 15 seconds. If you've done it right, after wearing it for 10 minutes or so, you'll really have to work to get that sucker off again. The trick is knowing when the glue has reached maximum tackiness, and that is largely trial and error. (Humidity and temperature play a factor...so what goes for me might not go for you.)
Bumbles brings up a good point about cleaning, but I don't think you have to clean the glue off every time. For some reason, mine seems to stick better with a layer or 2 of dried glue on it. (depending how thick your layers are) But for sanitation sake, you should still clean it fairly often.
Anyway, there's a few morning coffee thoughts!
