About this deal
These fabulous little plastic cylinders slide on to the end of your hook earrings and stay in place. Please take your earrings out before you undress – one of the most common and regrettable things we hear in our shop from customers is how they’ve lost one of their favourite earrings after it was inadvertently pulled out. They close from a hinge at the bottom of the earring and have an open oval shape which the post of the earring sits into, in fact the shape is exactly like the Greek letter Omega, from which their name (or one of them) is derived. An engineer created them after his wife lost her favourite earring on their driveway outside their home.
LOX come in gold-tone or silver-tone hypo-allergenic metal and you get two pairs in a pot. They can be swapped and used on any of your earrings.

Having lost one of my favourite earrings on a train once, I wish I had been wearing some of these on my hook earrings. You sometimes don’t realise how much you love a pair of earrings until you lose one. As clip earrings are so easy to put on and take off, they are great for those who have a busy lifestyle. Pro’s
We recommend LOX, for two pairs they are excellent value and can be interchanged between your earrings. This means that, if you get the earring caught and the hook begins to slide out of your ear, the plastic will hold the hook in your ear before you lose the earrings. They are hypo-allergenic with any part which touches skin being plated in either platinum, 24k gold or rose gold. Also called hook earrings because they are just that, a wired hook in silver, gold or other metal which bends up and over.At worst, I could have the gold post recovered in gold, although it’s unlikely this will ever be necessary. These are secure but can loosen over time – ask your local jeweller to tighten them a little if they become loose. Pro’s These are easier to hold and have a smooth application onto any post. Just like the Push-On Stopper’s but with an extra supportive plastic pad.
