But between the diameters, the thicknesses, the hammered or<br \/>\ntwisted finishes, the XXL or ultra-discreet versions, it is sometimes difficult to find your way around.<br \/>\nThis Ylume expert guide will accompany you step by step to find the ideal, durable and<br \/>\nbright pair, perfectly suited to your style, your morphology and your daily life. <\/p>\n<p class=\"note\">At Ylume, the gilding used is an <strong>18-carat 3 micron<\/strong> gold plate,<br \/>\n champagne-colored, RJC-certified and nickel-free, lead and cadmium-free. This is the guarantee of a<br \/>\nbeautiful fit and impeccable comfort on a daily basis. <\/p>\n<\/header>\n<section id=\"pourquoi-plaque-or\">\n<h2>Why choose <em>18k gold plated hoop earrings \u2013 3 \u03bc<\/em> ?<\/h2>\n<p>The 3 micron 18k gold plating brings together the best of both worlds: the warm shine<br \/>\nof gold and excellent strength at a low price. The thickness of 3 \u03bc<br \/>\n (microns) guarantees a long-lasting gilding in the face of friction and everyday gestures<br \/>\n. The slightly pink Ylume champagne shade brings a singular elegance<br \/>\nthat goes just as well with a minimalist white shirt as with a sunny summer dress<br \/>\n.  <\/p>\n<ul class=\"check\">\n<li><strong>Radiance and visual softness<\/strong> thanks to the matte champagne color.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Comfort<\/strong> : our jewelry is nickel, lead and cadmium free.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Durability<\/strong> : 3 \u03bc = superior resistance to fine gilding.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ethical<\/strong> : RJC certified gold, reusable packaging.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"tailles\">\n<h2>Choosing the right <strong>size<\/strong> : the diameter guide<\/h2>\n<p>The size of a hoop hoop is measured by its <strong>diameter<\/strong> (in millimeters) and its<br \/>\n<strong>thickness<\/strong> (thinness of the ring). The right choice balances your body type,<br \/>\n haircut and wearing occasion.
