“I missed the cosmetics exam. I had to do a makeup test”

When a student misses or fails an exam, he or she often has to take a “makeup test.” It does not involve cosmetics, but there are several puns, such as this one from 2002:
 
“The other day I saw school students applying cosmetics. They were taking a makeup test. “
 
   
(Oxford English Dictionary)
make-up, n. and adj.
N. Amer. colloq. A second examination for a student who has missed or failed the first one. Cf. resit n.
1934   in Webster’s New Internat. Dict. Eng. Lang. (at cited word),  Make-up,..Educ. A special examination in which a student may make up for absence or failure at a regular examination. Colloq.

Some of the beauty school students were absent for the cosmetics exam, so they had to take a make-up test.
