You said you "dripped it" up your nose.
I was advised (and I did) put my CS in a nasal inhaler; it gets all up there real good, but I am new to this concept and any input would be well recieved.
Amazon sells a kit with 3 little bottles with different applicator tips.
One is a dropper, one is a squirt tip, and one is a mister. I use all three, the dropper for my nose and ears, the squirt tip as an alternative for a quick spray up my nose when I am not at home, and can’t lie down, and the mister for my face/eyes.
Hope this link helps.
