Body Candy 14K Solid Gold Nose Ring Studs - 1.5mm (0.015 cttw) Genuine Diamond L Shaped 20 Gauge 1/4" Real Gold Nose Ring Piercing Jewelry - 14 K Gold Nose Stud, Nose Piercings, Gold Nose Studs for Women, Men

This is a very nice little piece of fine jewelry at a good price, and it makes me sad to see people giving it a low rating due to user errors that are not the fault of the product. Yes, it is very tiny! It's supposed to be. The size of the diamond is clearly and accurately described. A buyer not checking the size properly before ordering is not a product flaw! I highly recommend owning an inexpensive little measuring tape that lists both inches and cm/mm, for reference when ordering things online. 1.5mm is the width of the diamond itself, and the entire head of this nose ring measures 2mm. The diamond appears to have very good clarity when viewed with my jeweler's loupe, and has a lot of sparkle for its miniscule size. It is probably a little on the yellow side as far as color, especially at this price, but it's so small that you really can't tell, and it does look pretty white against the yellow gold setting. On my medium-sized white-person nose, the sparkle looks subtle but noticeable, and it's versatile enough to wear with casual or dressy outfits.Accidentally yanking the stud out of your nose and losing it is also not a product flaw, and is not the same as "falling out"! If you aren't used to wearing an L-bend style of nose ring, and haven't gotten into the habit of being careful around it any time you're touching your face, and making sure you're not standing over an open drain, that's not the fault of the nose ring. This style cannot simply fall out of a nostril piercing if it's been pushed all the way in past the L-bend as it should be. The right angle in the post keeps it in unless something pulls it out. Maybe some people received one with some rough spots on the setting, which snag on fabric more easily? Mine is very smooth, and although I've had times in the past with other L-bend nose rings when I've accidentally caught a towel loop or a fingernail on the head and pulled it out, I haven't had that happen with this one. (I'm probably more habitually careful now.) The post measures .8mm thick/20 gauge, as described, which is one size smaller than my usual 1mm/18g size, making it a bit easier to insert and remove for me. If you don't know your piercing gauge, you should check with your piercer, as getting a too-small gauge can make it easier to accidentally pull out your stud (which, again, would be user error in getting the wrong gauge, not a product flaw).On the one I received, the length from the base of the head to the inner elbow bend is 6mm as shown in the image with the "ruler", not 7mm as stated in the diagram image - this works out well for me as it holds the end inside my nostril well, but you should measure other nose rings you have and make sure that length will work for you. The length of the end of the L on mine is 5mm, which also works fine for me, but might be a little short for inserting in thicker nostrils. The tip of the post is not perfectly rounded, but it's smooth with no sharp edges and doesn't cause pain on insertion.This is my fifth gold nose ring from Body Candy. I initially had some issues with this brand which may have been warehouse issues, like receiving already-opened items, and being unsure of whether their metals were truly solid 14k or 18k gold because they don't place a metal stamp on their products. But I've come to trust them because over time, I've had no reason to believe the metal descriptions were inaccurate, and every reason to believe they are. No irritation from the metal, no color changing even with lots of wear on the yellow gold, a visible and normal color difference between the 14k and 18k yellow gold, and slight yellowing over time on the white gold, which is completely normal and expected for white gold: the white gold metal itself has a golden tinge due to its gold content, and is made silver-white with rhodium plating, which slowly wears off, and can be redone by a jeweler. (Anyone who owns a white gold wedding ring is familiar with this!)If you're looking for a tiny genuine diamond set in real solid 14k gold for your nostril, and can wear a 20g L-bend, I highly recommend this one!

Great value for the money. Some say it’s too small but for this 69 yr old it’s the perfect size and the right amount of sparkle. I have had no problems with insertion or it falling out of my nose. Would highly recommend!

Very pretty and can’t wait to wear it. Unfortunately I have a few more weeks before I can switch my nose ring out.

Very amazing especially for the price. Good clarity and just the right size.

Love the look and all but need to cut part of the L so it doesn’t show and maybe add more sizes for gage bc I already know I’m going to lose this one at some point

Exactly what I was looking for! Easy to put in and has a nice sparkle. I did clamp the L a little so it stays tighter in my nose; otherwise perfect. Definitely would purchase again.

I bought the white & yellow gold nose ring as replacement for the initial piercing L-ring. Such a huge difference. More comfortable, looks good. It is quite tiny, but looks great on. Just right.

High quality, but too small. I wore it for a day, but it didn’t stay in place and ended up getting lost
