How do I keep from losing earrings?

Losing Earrings

Do you keep losing earrings? The problem is most likely from the type of back your earrings have. Two options are to have screwposts and screwbacks installed, these are threaded posts that the backs actually screw on and off of. These take some work to get the backs onto, so they clearly take some work to come off. There is also a product called a "La Poussette" which goes on a standard earring post. The La Poussette is a flat saucer shaped back, that you have to squeeze tiny buttons on to put on or release. They are very secure, comfortable to wear, and support the back of the ear - allowing your earring to hang more upright in your ear.
