Our Jewelry

What metals do you use, and are they nickel-free?

We craft our jewelry exclusively from premium metals—solid gold and platinum. They're completely nickel-free, gentle on even the most sensitive skin, and designed to last beautifully.

Which nose stud style stays put the best?

Our U-post (nose screw) is a customer favorite for staying secure. It's perfect if you lead an active lifestyle or just want extra peace of mind.

Are your diamonds ethically sourced?

Absolutely. Our diamonds are responsibly sourced, strictly adhering to the Kimberley Process, ensuring they're ethical, conflict-free, and environmentally friendly.

Can I see how your diamonds fit on the nose?

Of course! Our nose studs, like the elegant 1.2mm Tiny Diamond, sit perfectly flat for a subtle sparkle. You can view detailed images on each product page.

Are your nose studs comfortable for everyday wear?

Definitely! Comfort is key to our designs. Each stud fits snugly and comfortably against your nostril, making daily wear effortless.

What's the best material for sensitive skin?

Solid 18k gold, platinum, and implant-grade titanium are ideal for sensitive skin. Avoid lower-quality metals or nickel, as these can trigger allergic reactions or irritation.

What length are your nose studs?

Our nose studs feature a 6.5mm length - a comfortable fit for most noses.

Care Tips

How do I keep my nose jewelry sparkling?

Keep your jewelry gleaming with gentle cleaning—use mild soap, warm water, and a soft toothbrush. For occasional tarnishing, a quick polish or jewelry cleaner works wonders.

My gold jewelry is discolored—what can I do?

No worries! Even high-quality gold can occasionally discolor from skin reactions or environmental factors. Usually, a quick polish fixes it, but feel free to send it back to us for complimentary professional cleaning if needed.

Piercing & Aftercare

Can I wear your jewelry right after getting pierced?

We recommend checking with your professional piercer first. Usually, they'll start you off with a straight, 18-gauge "fishtail" post for easy healing. After your piercing heals, switching to our comfortable jewelry is easy.

Should I start with a hoop or a stud?

A stud is generally best for new piercings—particularly an L-shaped post—because it's stable and minimizes irritation. Hoops can move around and potentially prolong the healing process.

When can I safely change my nose stud?

Wait until your piercing fully heals—typically 4 to 6 months. Changing jewelry prematurely can slow down healing and increase infection risk.

Is swimming okay after a new nose piercing?

Hold off on swimming in pools, hot tubs, lakes, or oceans for about 4 to 6 weeks after piercing. These environments can harbor bacteria that might cause infections.

Why do my eyes water during a nose piercing?

That's totally normal! The nerves in your nasal area trigger a reflex causing your eyes to water briefly during the piercing.

Ordering

Can I modify or cancel my order after placing it?

We’ll do our very best! If you need to change or cancel your order, contact us right away, and we'll handle it as long as it hasn't shipped yet.

Shipping & Returns

Do you ship internationally?

Yes - we ship to Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom. Foreign countries may impose customs fees or import taxes.

Can I return or exchange jewelry?

You have 30 days to return your jewelry, provided it's still in its original, unaltered condition. To make an exchange, simply return your jewelry and place a new order. Reach out to our customer care team to get started.
