Ear Seed Tape Adhesive

Vaccaria Ear Seeds should stay in place between 3-5 days.

Clear Tape pellets and Swarovski Crystal Pellets should stay in place between 2-4 days.

If you are not finding your seeds stay in place for that long, first be sure you are using tweezers to pinch just the corner of your ear seeds and touch as little of the tape as possible. Once the tape touches your ear it cannot be moved and re-secured. It won’t stick well.

Next, be sure your ears are thoroughly cleaned and dry. Many people have a thin wax build up they are unaware of.  Use an alcohol swab to gently clean the entire outer ear. Be sure your ears are completely dry before applying the ear seeds.

Occasionally the seeds may feel “loose” when they are initially placed but the bond can actually get stronger after a little bit of time. When massaging seeds onto ear be sure you’re pushing the whole ear and not just shifting the tape.

Be sure to store the seeds in their original packaging and keep out of sunlight as that may break down the adhesive.

Ear seeds may fall off sooner in children. They may also fall off sooner on curved ridges and in the inner concha area of the ear.

If you have followed all of these tips and still find the ear seeds aren’t sticking to the ears, our ear seed tape adhesive will help. Please note this adhesive is strong and a little goes a long way. It will keep your seeds in place longer than our recommended 5 days, and make them more difficult to remove. We strongly advise you to manually remove the seeds after 5 days to avoid irritation from prolonged wear.
