Choosing your body jewellery

Crystal jewels and body stickers

The stick-on pieces are clusters of rhinestones and crystals on a clear backing that press straight onto clean skin. They go wherever you want them — between the breasts, across the chest, along the brow and under the eyes, or lower down. Most are a one-time wear that you peel off at the end of the night, so there's no harm in trying something bold.

If it's coverage you're after rather than sparkle, nipple covers and pasties do that instead — these jewels sit on the skin to be seen, not to hide anything. They need clean, dry skin to grip properly, so leave the moisturiser and oil until after.

Body chains and harnesses

Body chains are jewellery you put on rather than stick down. A bra chain traces the bust with fine strands; shoulder and back pieces fall across the upper body; waist chains sit low on the hips. Most fasten at the neck or back and adjust to fit, and because they're metal, they'll last for years with a bit of looking after.

How they come across depends on what's underneath. Layered over a bra set or a sheer body, a chain finishes the outfit; worn against bare skin, it carries the look on its own. Stack a couple together if you want something with more impact.

Non-piercing nipple jewellery

This gives you the look of nipple jewellery without going near a piercing. Adjustable silicone loops or a gentle cinch hold a pendant or chain in place — some link both sides with one chain across the chest, others hang a crystal or onyx drop on each side.

A few tighten like adjustable clamps, holding firmer and adding a little pressure alongside the look. If that's what you're after, the dedicated nipple clamps range takes it further. Either way, ease them on and off slowly and keep them loose until you know how they feel.

Where it works

The same piece behaves differently depending on where it's going. At a festival or rave, crystal jewels and bold body chains are made for it — catching light, photographing well, holding up through a long day. The stick-on gems especially suit a crowd, since they're quick to apply and there's no fastening to fuss with.

For a night out, a body chain layered over an outfit does the work on its own; pair it with the right top from the sexy clothing range and you've got a full look. In the bedroom or in front of a camera, the non-piercing pieces and face gems come into their own, where the detail gets noticed up close.

For a themed or dress-up look, the costumes and roleplay range pairs naturally with the more dramatic crystal sets.

Nickel-free metals, plain packaging

The metal pieces here use nickel-free chains and fastenings, so they're kinder to sensitive skin, and the adhesive jewels stick with skin-safe backing from established brands. Orders ship in plain, unbranded boxes with nothing on the outside to say what's inside. Order before 2pm Monday to Friday for same-day dispatch, with free UK delivery over £50 and easy returns if a piece isn't right.
