Jewellery-related skin reactions are often harmless and temporary, caused by factors like oxidation, moisture, or skin pH. At KBN Jewellery, we use high-quality, hypoallergenic materials such as gold-fill and sterling silver, which are gentle on most skin types and free from nickel. While green marks or mild redness are common and usually not a cause for concern, more severe reactions are rare.
