My AURÉV

Not every metal that looks the same wears the same on sensitive skin. Here's how the common options actually compare.
What makes gold skin-safe isn't purity alone, it's which alloy metals are mixed in. 18K gold is 75% pure gold and 25% alloy, and that alloy can be nickel-based (a common irritant) or nickel-free, depending on the brand. AURÉV's 18K solid gold is made without nickel or brass specifically for this reason.
Naturally hypoallergenic and highly resistant to tarnishing, which makes it a strong choice for rings and other pieces worn daily without much removal. AURÉV offers platinum through bespoke commissions.
Reputable sterling silver (92.5% silver) is generally well-tolerated. For tips on Properly made sterling silver (92.5% silver, nickel-free alloy) is generally well tolerated. For the fuller breakdown on this specifically, see is sterling silver safe for sensitive skin and our jewelry care guide for keeping it wearable long-term.
Both are naturally hypoallergenic, lightweight, and scratch-resistant, making them common choices for everyday rings and bracelets. Worth knowing even though these aren't materials AURÉV currently works in, since they're a legitimate option if solid gold or silver isn't the right fit for you.
