Frequently Asked Questions
Can I wear the Tidewalker Gold Mini Cross Studs in the ocean and shower?
Yes. The Tidewalker Gold Mini Cross Studs are constructed from premium stainless steel with an advanced vacuum-applied PVD gold finish. They will not rust, corrode, or tarnish when exposed to ocean saltwater, chlorinated pool water, fresh shower water, or sweat.
Will these cross studs turn my earlobes green or cause skin irritation?
No. These earrings contain zero nickel, brass, or copper—the primary metals responsible for green skin staining and allergic contact dermatitis. They are 100% hypoallergenic and safe for sensitive ears.
Can I sleep or work out in these stud earrings?
Yes. With a compact 0.33-inch profile and smooth edges, they are designed to sit comfortably flat against the earlobe without poking or snagging on pillows, athletic headbands, or gym towels.
How do I clean and care for these gold mini studs?
Rinse the earrings with clean tap water after exposure to saltwater, pool chemicals, or sunscreen to wash away surface residues, then pat dry with a soft microfiber cloth. No chemical polishing agents or harsh cleaning dips are required.
