neither...nor...

Dans la salle de bains, je me douche et me rase mais je ne me maquille ni me parfume.

Is that ok?

Almost -- when you use "ne ... ni ...", repeat the "ne" as well. So "...ni ne me parfume".

Please note that using "ne... ni" or "ni...ni" is very formal.

In conversational French, we would just add (and repeat) "pas" : "Je (ne) me maquille pas et (ne) me parfume pas".
