I am in LOVE. I will never again gauge my ears without this. At first I thought, "Why buy this one? There are much cheaper types out there." (I know this isn't expensive but c'mon, we're all looking for a bargain!) So I found a couple of different types but this stretching balm had the best reviews by far - I always trust the reviews. So I bought it. I am seriously amazed by what this stuff can do. I have always stretched my ears, technically "dry" before I bought this, and it doesn't feel great. After a hot shower, I would push in a new size and I had to push and push and it would usually tear and bleed and throb for days afterward. Not fun at all. They say that if you stretch it improperly, it will never heal or be able to shrink back to the small size. And I like to go back and forth from regular sized earrings to a double zero gauge - so it's important to me that my holes will shrink back. ANYWAY. I bought this stuff and freaked out. I lathered my ears up with it and, like a freaking miracle, the gauges slipped right into my ear! I had just tried one size up, the DAY before and it hurt so badly that I couldn't even get them in. For some reason, when you use this stuff, you ears just take it! The next size up went into my ear, very easily, no pushing, no bleeding, no tearing, no throbbing! I was SHOCKED. It was so incredible! I actually can't wait to go up another size! I am so excited because it's EASY to stretch my ears now! Don't think about it anymore, just BUY IT. This stuff is miraculous. You will not regret this purchase. Review: Lasts forever, smells good, would & will buy again! - This is genuinely the best ear stretching balm I have ever used. It’s better than jojoba oil and it even smells good! I’ve been using this little container almost every day for exactly 6 months now and it’s just a little over halfway gone. It’s insane how long it’s lasted me and how long it will be before I have to buy another. I would definitely recommend!!! ## Features - LUBRICANT - Gauge Gear lubricates your skin while you stretch!

It helps your skin become more elastic....making the stretch less painful. It also helps heal your ears a little quicker after a stretch. **Q: Does this come with only one container?** A: Yes, it is just one container, but it has lasted me quite a while **Q: Is this product cruelty free?** A: All natural doesn't mean cruelty free. Organic doesn't mean cruelty free. Eco friendly doesn't mean cruelty free. Beeswax and honey did not mean Cruelty free. Cruelty free means Cruelty free. Unless it's labeled as such, with logos like the leaping bunny then it's NOT cruelty free. (The Leaping Bunny Logo is the only internationally recognized symbol guaranteeing consumers that no new animal tests were used in the development of any product displaying it. The Logo can be seen on packaging, advertising, and websites for cosmetics and household products around the world) **Q: how long does it usually take to get delivered? Cause some people were saying it arrived early** A: I ordered it October 3 & it was at my house October 7 ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ MIRACULOUS. *by N***E on August 29, 2014* This stuff is AMAZING.

It’s better than jojoba oil and it even smells good! I’ve been using this little container almost every day for exactly 6 months now and it’s just a little over halfway gone. It’s insane how long it’s lasted me and how long it will be before I have to buy another. I would definitely recommend!!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ DONT WAIT AS LONG AS I DID! *by T***ʔ on September 16, 2014* I had this on wishlist for months now, debating back and forth if I needed it. If you're doing debating as well, seriously just buy it. Its less than 10 bucks and definitely worth using on your ears or other pierced areas. I have very sensitive skin so when I went up a size before I got the balm, my ears would be irritated for weeks to a little over a month. They would constantly be hot, itchy, dry and clear discharge would be oozing down my neck. GROSS! I even waited 10 months to go up a size and that was only at the 12G-10G stage. 2 days after I got the balm, I prepped my ears after a shower. Rubbed the balm generously over my left ear and on the taper. There was very minimal tugging and it did not make me cringe. Took less than a minute to get the taper in compared to before, taking over 5 minutes of twisting, pushing, & massaging to get the taper in w/out the balm. Took no more than 5 days to "fully heal." No dry, flaky, irritated, oozing ear. Waited 6 months this time around to size up to 2G. At the same time, my right ear was already infected because I had to replace my plug but I was out in public and only had a spare in my purse. I cleaned it as best as I can but it didnt work. My ear felt like it was back to its newly stretched phase- cracked skin, bump under the ear and clear discharge constantly flowing down. Cleaned my plugs and my ear with salt water then rubbed the balm all over. It started to heal up faster than it did when all I had was salt water & vitamin E oil. Highly recommended for anyone who's trying to stretch their ears. ## Frequently Bought Together - Gauge Gear Ear Stretching Balm | 10 ml Jar | Piercing Aftercare | Stretched or Damaged Skin Care | All Natural Moisturizing Salve w/Jojoba - vcmart 14G-00G 36 pcs Ear Gauges Stretching Kit Tapers Plugs Eyelets Implant Grade Steel - BodyJ4You 100% USDA Organic Jojoba Oil Piercing Aftercare - Stretched Ear Gauges Tragus Nose Septum Lip Navel - Natural Recovery Skin Moisturizer - Pure Unrefined Wax - 0.17 Fl Oz --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/42129047-gauge-gear-ear-stretching-balm-10-ml-jar-piercing-aftercare](https://www.desertcart.us/products/42129047-gauge-gear-ear-stretching-balm-10-ml-jar-piercing-aftercare) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-10-30*
