Looking for a gift for your best friend, preferably under €10 and still personal? Give a set of matching fake piercings: one in gold, one in silver. She wears one, you wear the other, and you instantly have something that isn't sold anywhere else as a duo. You'll find all the options under gifts under €10.
Why two piercings make a great gift
A single piece of jewelry is nice. A set is a story. You wear the same design, just in a different color, so you match without looking like you're in uniform.
She doesn't have to commit to anything either. Nothing goes through her skin, because everything simply clips around the side of her nose, her ear or her lip. That works even if she's always had doubts about a real piercing. Every piercing comes in a white NONPIERCED box, so it's ready to give.
Gift for your best friend: how to pick the set
Four steps and you're done:
- Pick the spot. Nose, ear or lip? Not sure what suits her? Have a look at which fake piercing suits which style.
- Pick a design that comes in both colors. Most do, but the pavé, wave, flower, tiny stones and leaf vine only come in gold. The septum spikes and septum tribal only come in silver. So those won't work for a gold and silver set.
- Decide who gets which color. Look at which jewelry she wears most. Not sure about her color? These tips for choosing gold or silver will help.
- Still unsure? Give her both colors and keep nothing for yourself. Also fine.
Four sets to choose from
- Hearts. The heart nose ring in gold is small, sweet and costs €7.95. It also comes in silver. It sits around the side of your nose, but also fits on your helix.
- Stars. The star nose ring in silver has a smooth star at the front and costs €7.95. Also in gold. It fits at the top of your ear too, so she can choose for herself.
- Smooth rings. The smooth ring in gold (€7.95) comes in 8, 10 and 13 mm. The little spring clips it shut by itself. It works around your nose, earlobe, helix or lip, so it's the safest pick if you don't know where she'd like to wear it most. Also in silver.
- Double ear cuffs. The double ear cuff in silver has two rings joined together and costs €9.95. It sits in your conch or on your helix. Also in gold.
Never gone that far yourself and want something a little naughty? Two rings around your bottom lip are called snake bites. They also come as a set under fake snake bites.
How much is it and when will it arrive?
Three piercings at €7.95 come to €23.85 together. That's over the free shipping threshold: from €20, shipping is free. Stay below it and shipping is €4.95 in the Netherlands and €5.95 to other EU countries. All the details are on the shipping and returns page.
In the Netherlands, your order usually arrives within 1 to 3 working days. That's not a guarantee for a specific day though, so don't order on the last day before her birthday.
Tip: Tell her to take her fake piercing off when she sleeps and works out. And not to squeeze it too tight or bend it, so it stays looking good.
Frequently asked questions
What can I give my best friend that doesn't cost much?
A set of two fake piercings, for example two heart nose rings at €7.95 each. That's €15.90 and you instantly have something that's just for the two of you. Add a third one and shipping is free.
Can I give a fake piercing to someone without piercings?
Yes, that's exactly the idea. She clips it around the side of her nose, her ear or her lip and nothing goes through her skin.
Can I return the gift if she doesn't like it?
You have 14 days to change your mind from the day you receive it. Returns are only possible if it's unused and still in the original box, and you pay the return shipping yourself. So if she's already worn it, it can't be returned. Read the details on shipping and returns.
