Details & care
Light up the night with this stellar pair of starburst stud earrings. 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. Delivered 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
- Sold as a Pair

Nearly impossible to screw in, posts too thick
I wanted to love these earrings, but unfortunately had two issues:1. They are incredibly difficult to get in / screwed in. I had to ask my husband and my mom for help, and it took a really long time. Then I got worried that the screw attachment would harden in place (water deposits, etc.) if I wore them all the time (the point of these earrings....) and I'd NEVER be able to get them out. 2. The posts are meaningfully larger than a normal earring, so they were quite uncomfortable to wear - my ears ached so I had to remove them. I would not recommend.

I don’t take them out!
These are my everyday earrings and I never take them out ! I love that I can sleep on them without them bothering. I keep them in my second hole and they have held up very well.

Love these!
I absolutely love these because I can sleep comfortably in them. I don’t even feel them on and I love the shape and glitter accent they give with out being too flashy!

Screw Backs are a Challenge!
These earrings are so dainty and nice looking, but I didn’t realize how tricky the screw backs would be. I had significant challenges trying to get them screwed on!
