If other jewelry has turned your skin green, left red marks, or caused itching, the problem is almost always nickel. Nickel is the most common allergen in fashion jewelry, and it's in more pieces than most people realize. Hypoallergenic jewelry solves this by using metals that don't trigger that reaction.
Every piece in our hypoallergenic collection is built on a 925 sterling silver base — a metal that contains no nickel and is recognized as safe for sensitive skin by dermatologists. Some pieces have 18K gold plating over the silver, maintaining the hypoallergenic properties while giving you the look of gold.
The metal that touches your skin is what matters. 925 sterling silver is 92.5% pure silver with a small amount of copper — both metals are nickel-free and safe for daily wear. Gold plating over sterling silver keeps the safe base underneath while changing the appearance. What you want to avoid: brass base metals, zinc alloys, and anything not stamped with a recognized hallmark.
Green skin where the jewelry sits. Red, irritated skin or a rash at contact points. Itching or a burning sensation after wearing a piece for a few hours. These are all signs of a nickel reaction. Switching to 925 sterling silver typically stops the reaction immediately.
Earrings with 925 silver posts — the most important thing for pierced ears, since the post sits inside the piercing. Necklaces, bracelets, and rings on a sterling silver base. All styles are plated with 18K gold or rhodium — both nickel-free finishes. Every piece is stamped and tested to the 925 standard.
