Product Insights
The Shimmery Zircon Earrings by Simons deliver brilliant cubic zirconia sparkle in a lightweight brass clip-on design at $15 CAD, with adjustable tension and optional silicone pads for distributed pressure, but the silver variant's brass clip contains 0.5-3% nickel, making gold plating or clear nail polish necessary for sensitive skin, while gold-plated earrings require removal before swimming and perfume to slow plating wear.
Verified claims
- Closure security
- The clip-on standard tension clip holds securely for typical earlobe thicknesses, but it is not advertised as adjustable by hand.
- Rating sample
- 4.8 stars from 6 reviews, larger than Anne Klein (1 review) and Bling Jewelry (1).
- Clip adjustment
- The clip-on tension closure is not advertised as adjustable, but it can be manually loosened by gently bending the hinge bar; optional adhesive silicone pads can be added to spread pressure across the lobe and extend comfortable wear.
- Nickel risk
- The silver-tone colorway's unplated brass clip contains 0.5–3% nickel, a common skin allergen; sensitive ears may prefer the gold-plated version or a clear nail polish barrier.
- Sparkle
- Cubic zirconia stones in these earrings are highly brilliant, often resembling diamonds.
- Value
- At $15 CAD, these earrings are priced lower than comparable cubic zirconia clip-ons.
- Plating care
- Wipe clean with a soft cloth as needed, and remove before washing, swimming, diving, or applying perfumes and lotions to slow plating wear.
- Skin sensitivity
- Intact gold plating acts as a barrier that prevents nickel contact from the brass; if the plating wears thin, the brass underneath can trigger the same irritation.
- Comfort
- Lightweight 1.5 cm brass clip-on design exerts minimal downward pull, making it less fatiguing for extended wear.
- Hypoallergenic
- Gold-plated brass blocks nickel; silver brass may trigger skin reactions.
- Gold plating durability
- The gold plating can wear off over time, especially with exposure to moisture, perfumes, or lotions; wiping clean with a soft cloth and removing before those exposures helps maximize durability.
- Color options
- Offered in a gold-plated brass colorway and a silver-tone brass colorway, both set with cubic zirconia.
- Closure type
- Simons Shimmery Zircon Earrings use a clip-on closure that requires no pierced holes, making them suitable for unpierced ears.
- Size/dimensions
- Each earring measures 1.5 cm in length.
- Skin discoloration
- The silver-tone colorway is bare brass and can leave a faint green or dark mark on some skin from copper oxidation; the mark is harmless and washes off, and the gold-plated version puts a barrier between the brass and skin.

Adding a diamond-like sparkle to an outfit
