It is for a gift, so I want to get it right. Based in the US if that changes shipping advice.

Honestly, it depends on a few things. My ring came from James Allen with a full certificate. Yes, I have had mine for two years and it still looks great. Just clean it regularly with soap and water.

Not worth the risk in my experience. Spend a little more and buy from a real store.

After trying several options myself, I have heard good things about Brilliant Earth, but I personally used Etsy. I asked my jeweler the same thing. He said it is safe for daily wear as long as you avoid harsh chemicals.

I talked to my jeweler about this last month. I compared Amazon and Pandora before deciding. I would say yes, especially if you are on a budget. I have had zero problems so far.

It depends on your skin and how often you wear it. Mine is fine, but a friend had issues within weeks.
