These are the prettiest earrings Ive owned even compared to real jewelry.  I have pail white skin and roses cheeks and they are flattering with my skin tone and so so shiny.  I think they would look nice on any skin tone.  My ears are very sensitive to earrings but in three and a half days I have not had an issue.  I do take them out each night and quickly wash the post with my bathroom hand soap and leave them on a towel to dry overnight.  I hope they hold up to every day wear but they're so affordable that I can replace them as long as they continue to make them.  I did swap the backs out with a bullet clutch that I find comfortable.
