I have had mine for over two years now. A friend of mine got hers from Brilliant Earth and loves it. Save your money. The difference is noticeable but not worth the premium for most people.
I would say yes, especially if you are on a budget. I have had zero problems so far.
I went through this exact decision last year. My ring came from Brilliant Earth with a full certificate. Not worth the risk in my experience. Spend a little more and buy from a real store.
This is totally normal. Mine did the same thing for the first month then settled.

E Elijah Jackson Apr 12, 2026What about Amazon, is that okay?
I will give you the straight answer.
What My Jeweler Said
My bench jeweler told me the main thing people regret is skimping on the setting. The stone itself is fine, but a weak prong will let it fall out. Spend a bit more on a solid setting.
Bottom Line
Yes, it is worth it for most people. Just buy from a known seller and inspect the prongs every six months.
I will give you the straight answer. I went with James Allen on Etsy and saved a lot. Yes, I have had mine for two years and it still looks great. Just clean it regularly with soap and water.
It depends on your skin and how often you wear it. Mine is fine, but a friend had issues within weeks.
Here is my honest take after owning one. I compared Brilliant Earth and Tiffany before deciding. Save your money. The difference is noticeable but not worth the premium for most people.
I asked my jeweler the same thing. He said it is safe for daily wear as long as you avoid harsh chemicals.
