Details & care
A hint of shine and a touch of sophistication come together in a pair of bead studs that go from perfectly polished to comfortably casual. Each lightweight stud features a shorter post length and a screw-on ball-style back for comfortable, long-term wear. Exchange the snags and pokes of traditional earring backs for a style that is cartilage and lobe friendly, headphone ready, and nap approved. \nDelivered from the Made by Mary studio in a giftable book-style box, each piece is carefully crafted with your story in mind.
- How To Wear Live In Studs
- 1. Unscrew the ball from the back of the stud.
- 2. Insert the stud into your piercing. (This may take a little extra care because the post is slightly thicker than the standard post.)
- 3. Carefully line up the hole in the ball with the post and turn the ball clockwise to tighten, using your other hand to hold the stud in place. Twist the ball onto the post until it cannot turn any further. (To loosen, turn the ball counterclockwise.)
- 4. Sleep, swim, sweat, and see the world with comfortable 24/7 wear.
- 5. We recommend checking occasionally to ensure the ball backs are still screwed on securely.
- Post Length: 6mm
- Post Width: 1mm (18g)
- 3mm Screw-on Ball Backs Included

just do it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I live in these. Fashionable yet classy. I love not having to take them off. I sleep in them comfortably and they make me look more pulled together. High quality beautiful earrings.

Needs better design
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was difficult to put in, but once I finally did, I loved them. When I tried to take them out, I couldn’t grasp the ball to unscrew it, even with the aid of tools. After 2+ hours trying to take out, ended up having to cut the ball off with wire cutters to remove.

Set and forget
I’ve been wearing these in my third hole for a year now and I love them. Never have to take them off and no pain or irritation for my ears. They were tricky to get into my ear at first for some reason, but I think that had more to do with my ears and less the earrings.

Beautiful earrings
Beautiful earrings only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is the ball back is hard to get on but they are really comfortable once on!

microscopic!
These are seriously microscopic. I could barely see them let alone put them in. I did not succeed in screwing on the backs. These will be going back.

Safe & Stylish!
I absolutely love my petite ball stud earrings! They’re the perfect size—subtle yet stylish—and go with everything. The craftsmanship is excellent, and they still look brand new after months of wear. Plus, my little one can no longer tug on them, which is a huge bonus! A timeless, versatile accessory!
