Hey Body Candy Fam!
Welcome to The Tea. It's our weekly Thursday e-zine where we feature our favorite Body Candy influencers from around the world. We love that everyone's piercing journey is different... And we can't wait to tell the amazingly unique stories from our pierced/modified family!
If you'd like to be featured in an upcoming episode of The Tea, send us an email to jade@bodycandy.com OR send a DM to the Body Candy Body Jewelry Instagram.
Today's influencer is Golden Barbie Doll (IG @golden.barbie.doll) - here are some fun facts:
Golden.barbie.doll facts:
- @Golden.barbie.doll is a 20-year-old musician named Victoria from Russia
- She has several different piercings - a medusa, ear piercings, and nipple piercings
- Her first piercings were her nipple piercings - after heading in for a consult and getting the go-ahead, she "wasn't even scared because she's a strong lady" - we love that!
- She recommends chilling out the day after getting your nipples pierced - spend the day laying in bed and relaxing while you Netflix and chill.
- Her next piercing was a medusa piercing. While this one had a little extra heal time overall, she says it didn't hurt to get at all.
- Her best advice is to keep your piercings clean and to "be careful!"
- She doesn't have one, specific favorite piercing... Because she loves them all!

Stretched ears and plugs are some of the most common body mods and offer an amazing, and visible look... But as we body mod enthusiasts have come to learn about ourselves, we change our minds! Maybe you patiently made your way to a one-inch stretch, only to find ten years later you'd prefer something just a bit more subtle. Luckily for you, your earlobes are made of super elastic skin (most of us at least, everybody's body is different); the same properties that allowed you to stretch your ears in the first place are the same that will allow you to shrink your lobes back when you're done. It's a relatively simple process that mostly includes removing your jewelry, massaging your lobes with vitamin E oil, and being patient... But it's still a process worth knowing about if you're the owner of some stretched lobes. Learn all about the process of shrinking up your earlobe in this week's blog: Can You Shrink Stretched Lobes?
Let's talk a little bit more about @golden.barbie.doll and her favorite Body Candy jewelry. Victoria is a classy, powerful lady, and her jewelry choices show that off quite well. She's highlighted two of our best-selling nipple barbells - both in a classy, clear CZ gem finish. First is a simple, stunning circular shaped gem... A timeless look that will suit anyone in any outfit. Next is a heart-shaped gem, a bit more flirtatious but still with a lot of classiness. We thought we'd supplement GBD's picks with one of our own collections, Shiny, Sparkly, & Chic. This amazing collection is one that either of Golden.barbie.doll's picks could fit into - it's full of simple but STUNNING jewelry pieces. Think lots of opals, sparkly cz gems, and simplicity with just the right amount of flourishes and shine. We've highlighted all three of these options above - be sure to check them all out.
