Wearing jewelry should never have to mean red rashes, itching, or irritation. Unfortunately, many experience just that when wearing jewelry made from unsuitable materials – often due to nickel, copper, or poor plating that wears off. Therefore, the choice of hypoallergenic jewelry is becoming increasingly important.
At Alora Avenue, we’ve made it simple: all our jewelry is made from surgical stainless steel (316L) and plated with PVD – a technique that makes them both safe for sensitive skin and durable in the long run.
Why does skin react to certain jewelry?
Nickel allergy is one of the most common contact allergies in the world. When jewelry contains nickel or other sensitive metals, the skin can react with redness, itching, or blisters. Cheaper alloys or thin plating that wears off quickly are often the culprit.
Why Alora's jewelry is hypoallergenic
316L stainless steel – the same type of steel used in surgical instruments.
PVD plating – a modern technique that makes the gold extremely durable and prevents it from wearing off.
Free from allergens – no unpleasant surprises for sensitive skin.
Tips for those with sensitive skin
-
Opt for jewelry made of stainless steel, titanium, or real gold – materials that the skin tolerates best.
-
Avoid unclear alloys or "fashion plating" where the manufacturer cannot guarantee the material.
-
Choose jewelry you can actually wear every day – without having to worry about reactions.
