Sensitive skin, so that matters to me. It is for a gift, so I want to get it right.

Here is my honest take after owning one. My jeweler recommended Brilliant Earth. I would say yes, especially if you are on a budget. I have had zero problems so far.

Save your money. The difference is noticeable but not worth the premium for most people.

Honestly, it depends on a few things. I went with Tiffany 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.

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 bought mine from Pandora for about $300. I asked my jeweler the same thing. He said it is safe for daily wear as long as you avoid harsh chemicals.

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