"Very cheap material, the same material as one I’ve bought for 80p on shein. The product was a completely different colour than on the website. You have to pay for returns, I only bought this one item so it wasn’t even worth returning as I’d only get £3 or so back. Will not be purchasing from here again."
"Bought this to use while having an MRI scan and it's that cute, I've kept it in!"
"I’ve bought 3 off these now, one for my helix and 2 for my lobes, so much easier to put in and take out, love the flexibility and the colours are great. Also good for sensitive ears and I can sleep in them fine."
"Love this use it in my daith piercing so comfortable when sleeping looks good too"
