Nice earring, however the post
"Nice earring, however the post is much too long for my helix piercing, it continually fell forward and spun around. Have had to remove it so sadly for me was waste of money."

Detailed Brass Design
Bring a little celestial sparkle to your ear stack with this Shooting Stars Cartilage Stud. Featuring a curved constellation of shimmering crystal-studded stars, this eye-catching design follows the natural shape of the ear for a playful statement look with plenty of light-catching detail.
✨ Why You'll Love It
✔ Celestial Shooting Star Design: A curved row of crystal-studded stars creates a distinctive constellation-inspired look that adds instant personality to your ear stack.
✔ Sparkling Crystal Detail: Shimmering cubic zirconia stones catch and reflect the light across the design for an eye-catching finish from every angle.
✔ Internally Threaded Flat Back: The threading sits inside the post for a smooth exterior, while the flat-back design keeps the overall finish sleek and streamlined.
💎 The Detail
Playful, sparkling and made for standout ear styling, this Shooting Stars stud brings a little cosmic charm to your jewellery collection. The curved arrangement of stars creates a flowing silhouette that works beautifully as a statement piece within a layered ear stack.
Wear it alone to let the celestial design shine or combine it with simple hoops and studs for a more detailed, curated look.

Materials used in this piece
Base metal: 316L SURGICAL STEEL
Accent material: BRASS
Important for this piece: This jewellery contains brass. We recommend wearing it only in fully healed piercings and keeping it dry. Remove before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping.
Choosing the right metal can make a big difference to the comfort, care and longevity of your piercing jewellery. Here's how our three main jewellery metals compare.
TITANIUM — BEST FOR SENSITIVE SKIN
Skin sensitivity: Excellent choice for sensitive skin
Best for: Fresh* or healed piercings
Everyday wear: Excellent
Care: Low maintenance
Titanium is lightweight, durable and highly resistant to corrosion. It's our recommended choice if you have sensitive skin or are concerned about nickel sensitivity.
316L SURGICAL STEEL — DURABLE EVERYDAY CHOICE • USED IN THIS PIECE
Skin sensitivity: Suitable for many people
Best for: Healed piercings
Everyday wear: Very good
Care: Easy care
316L Surgical Steel is strong, durable and resistant to everyday wear, making it a popular choice for body jewellery. Surgical steel contains nickel, so if you have a known nickel sensitivity or particularly sensitive skin, we recommend choosing titanium instead.
BRASS — STATEMENT JEWELLERY • USED IN THIS PIECE
Skin sensitivity: Not recommended for sensitive skin
Best for: Fully healed piercings
Everyday wear: Occasional wear
Care: Keep dry
Brass allows us to create more detailed and decorative jewellery designs, but it requires more care than titanium or surgical steel. Jewellery containing brass should only be worn in fully healed piercings. Keep it dry and remove before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping.
A note about fresh piercings
The metal is only one part of choosing jewellery for a fresh piercing. The jewellery's gauge, length, design, threading and surface finish also need to be appropriate for your piercing and anatomy.
If your piercing is still healing, we recommend checking with a professional piercer before changing your jewellery.
Mixed-material jewellery
If a piece contains more than one metal, always follow the care and wear guidance for the most sensitive material. For example, jewellery with a 316L Surgical Steel bar and a brass charm should be treated as brass jewellery and kept dry.
