Earring backs

Tree · 2006-05-09 20:42:46

anyone know where to get earring backs that won't corrode and get covered in a green paste of oxidation and skin cells? I usually wear my earrings for months at a time and cleaning off the green gunk is starting to bug me

Emm..if you wear them for that long they'll gunk up, no matter what. Precious metal ones are a bit better, but with shampoo and skin cells they get pretty manky anyways.
