JEWELRY FOR SENSITIVE SKIN
Everyone deserves the pleasure of expressing themselves and accentuating their looks with luxurious, fashionable jewelry. However, many people experience irritating, sometimes even painful, allergies to certain metals. Innovations in the world of designer jewelry have allowed for types of metals free from the most common irritants, allowing more people to enjoy wearing the pieces they love without discomfort. We at Huntington Fine Jewelers have carefully curated an inventory of accessories that cater to a broad range of skin sensitivities. Browse our selection of fashionable accessories that you’ll be able to wear comfortably for years to come.
SENSITIVE SKIN REACTIONS TO METAL
How can one figure out if they need to seek out jewelry that caters to sensitive skin? Any redness, itchiness, flakes, or bumps can be caused by an adverse reaction to certain types of metals. These are the most typical types of skin reactions one might have to certain jewelry, but if unchecked, an allergic reaction can progress into worse forms of irritation. Pay careful attention to the specific pieces that cause such reactions to determine which type of metals or alloys you should avoid in the future. It will save you a lot of pain if you figure out what harms you most.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR AND WHAT TO AVOID
Any metal can cause allergic reactions, but some do more than others. For instance, nickel is one of the most common metal allergens. Nickel is inexpensive yet robust, making it well-suited for jewelry. If you have a nickel allergy, seek out pieces like gold above 18k, most titanium alloys, many sterling silver pieces, and surgical stainless steel. Copper is commonly used to reinforce soft metals, but it is hypoallergenic. Be aware that some pieces, despite being mostly forged in high-quality metals, feature clasps made from lower-quality materials.
