What about those expandable foam earplugs? Roll it up real tight, jam it, and let it expand and fill the nostril.

Obviously they aren't as strong as a solid full-face helmet, but I think I'm going to have to return mine for one of those. They are expensive though! Certainly is easier to put on the helmet and then put on the glasses.

I doubt it'll expand with any support/force once hallowed out.

Sorry, I didn't notice that you wanted to breathe through it.
