Using these earrings is super easy. Just open the 24k gold - plated earring backs, insert the post through your ear piercing, and close the backs securely. To keep them looking their best, avoid wearing them when swimming or doing strenuous activities as water and sweat can damage the 24K gold plating. When not in use, store them in a jewelry box or a soft pouch to prevent scratches. Clean them gently with a soft, dry cloth to maintain their shine. Also, be careful with the gemstones and pavé as they can be delicate.
