Which is better for sensitive ears?

The Diamonbliss. It is solid 10K gold and nickel free, while the Not Your Basic is plated brass and can irritate sensitive skin once the plating wears.

The Not Your Basic. Its 8mm stone gives a bold statement look; the Diamonbliss is a small, dainty stud.

The Diamonbliss. Solid gold does not flake or fade, while the Not Your Basic's plating wears with water, sweat and perfume.

Can I wear them in the shower?

The Diamonbliss, yes. The Not Your Basic should be taken off before showering to protect the plating.

Is the Not Your Basic worth stepping up to over the Diamonbliss?

Only if you want a large statement stud. On materials and durability the Diamonbliss is the stronger buy.
