Which Type of Nose Pin is Best for You? A Complete Guide Based on Face Shape, Style And Stone Colour

Nose pins have been worn for centuries — as a cultural tradition, a symbol of strength, and today, a bold expression of personal style. But with so many types out there — studs, hoops, bali-style rings, and screw back pins — it’s easy to wonder:
“Which type of nose pin is best for me?”

At U ARE, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all jewellery. We offer customizable screw-backed silver nose pins in a variety of stone and metal colour options — because every face, skin tone, and story is different.

In this blog, you’ll find everything you need to confidently choose your perfect nose pin — from face shape and personal style to skin tone, metal finishes, and gifting tips.
