Frequently Asked Questions

What type of nose rings do you carry?

We carry hoops, dangling hoop nose rings, clip-on nose rings, and nose cuffs.

Is it cultural appropriation by wearing your nose ring?

Great question! The controversy of Indian nose rings comes from nathes which are a bigger hoop or stud-type nose ring that is used in Indian marriages. Our nose rings are not nathes, but simply Indian-inspired. It is completely fine for everyone to wear.

What are your nose rings made of?

We offer a variety of nose rings. Most of them are made of brass or brass with gold plating. Please read the description for full details.

Which nose ring would you recommend for sensitive skin?

For sensitive skin, we recommend our gold-plated options. Our styles that are made of brass can cause irritation.

What kind of end is your nose ring? L shape? Hoop?

Most our nose rings are an adjustable hoop you can tighten by pushing the ends together. We just recently launched L shape nose rings but it currently available in 1 style

Will your brass nose rings tarnish?

Because they are made of brass, they can tarnish over time just like any jewelry that is not purely made of silver or gold. Many factors contribute to how long it may tarnish such as if you wear it in the shower and the climate from where you are located.

Can I wear my nose ring in the shower?

Though we have had customers wear their nose ring for weeks or months in the shower and not take it off whatsoever, we do not recommend this. Simply taking it off before showering can keep your nose ring lasting longer.

How can I prevent my brass nose rings from tarnishing?

We recommend using a clear sealant such as clear nail polish. We really recommend the brand Jewelry Shield; it is perfect for those with skin sensitivity. Simply coat your nose ring with a layer of sealant. Then, let it dry for 20 minutes, and you are good to go! Please read all ingredients before applying. We also carry gold plated options from our "goddess" collection that typically lasts 6 months to a year and we also offer real gold and diamond options as well from our "forever" collection.

What size are your nose rings?

All of our nose rings are 20 gauge.

About the Bindi

The bindi is a fashionable, beautiful, type sticker that is worn between the eyebrows; it originates from South Asian cultures. The bindi has evolved from a red powder to beautiful jewels that are appreciated by cultures around the world. The bindi is said to retain energy and strengthen concentration. It represents the third eye.

We offer the most luxurious packaged and uniquely designed bindis. A variety of gold, silver, gold and silver, red, multi-colored, and all-colored packs of bindis in all sizes are available. Each one comes with custom slanted tweezers for precise placement, and customized bindi adhesive for reuse.

Is it cultural appropriation to wear bindis?

Though bindis can be more controversial to wear, please understand that bindis have an important and significant meaning in Indian culture. It represents your third eye and is said to retain energy and concentration. This comes from being placed on a vein between your eyebrows which is said to unleash special senses. Most Indians love seeing people of other cultures embracing their culture but please do your research and understand and respect the meaning behind it. It's very important to wear a bindi understanding its significance and meaning, not just because you think it looks “cool.” For example, a plain red dot bindi (we do not carry) represents someone who is married. Being unmarried, and wearing a red dot bindi, may be looked down upon.

Bindi Maintenance

The bindi is made of a sticker-like material. Gently peel off the bindi from the sheet. The best way to do this without damaging the bindi is to use our custom tweezers. After carefully peeling off the bindi, simply place it in the desired area, usually between the eyebrows (the third eye).

You can reuse your long-lasting bindi many times, especially now with our custom bindi adhesive that is included! It is suggested to always put the bindi back onto the sheet and back into the luxury box after usage. When your bindi is losing adhesive and not sticking, use our custom glue and dab a small bit on the bindi and place it where desired. Please check the ingredients of eyelash glue to prevent skin allergies.
