These earrings are very cute, but WAY small. The hoop inner dimension itself is small and the wire part that goes in your ear is small. Both would benefit from a slight increase in size. I was initially very happy to hear they were small because that's what I wanted, something that hugged my ear. I tried the birthstone hoops because I wanted one with colored gems and those were too big for me. So I was happy to see that these would be smaller. I do have fairly small lobes and these barely fit in my first hole. The small part of the wire that goes into my piercing is also barely long enough. So definitely be ware buyers. The website is VERY misleading because they only list the outer diameter, not the inner. The inner diameter in real life is about 8mm, from my measurements. So you only have 8mm for your lobe, not 12mm. If the inner diameter of these were 12mm then everything would be fine. It's also misleading if you're trying to use these sizes to buy other earrings. You might think, oh these 12mm were too small.... But they're actually 8mm, so 12mm might totally be fine for you. I hope Tini Lux changes the website listing for this product to accurately reflect how small they are. Also, they should show a sideways picture so people can see how thick the hoop is.

Note that if you have larger or thicker earlobes these likely won't work for you. I ordered these thinking they'd be about the same as the date night hoops (15mm diameter), but they're only 12mm in diameter. I should have checked the product specs more closely so it was mostly my fault they didn't work for me, but it was still a bit disappointing. I have third lobes that are still healing so I'll hold onto these to try in a few more months.
