Let me break this down clearly. I asked my jeweler the same thing. He said it is safe for daily wear as long as you avoid harsh chemicals.

Quick summary first, then details: A friend of mine got hers from Blue Nile and loves it. Short answer: no. I switched after a few months and never looked back. The upkeep was not worth it.

This is totally normal. Mine did the same thing for the first month then settled.

After trying several options myself, My ring came from Charles & Colvard with a full certificate. Save your money. The difference is noticeable but not worth the premium for most people.

Here is my honest take after owning one. My jeweler recommended Etsy. It depends on your skin and how often you wear it. Mine is fine, but a friend had issues within weeks.

Yes, I have had mine for two years and it still looks great. Just clean it regularly with soap and water.
