Since we're talking about Goosebumps, my answer is in the context of the Horror genre.

If it's a Body Horror transformation (normal person has their body changed), any realism goes out the window because pretty much all the Body Horror tropes are inherently unrealistic or speculative. Especially if we're talking about supernatural body horror where magic is involved.

The state of having no eyes, no mouth, and no nose would be The Blank (inherently unrealistic, so it's highly redundant to add Artistic License – Anatomy).

Likely Facial Horror if it's unnatural or distressing (as opposed to a being who is just like that naturally).

The Noseless seems to be more about having no nose drawn due to art style (Lazy Artist rather than Body Horror) or due to having a nose and then forcibly losing it (Body Horror again).
