Lustre of Love | Hypoallergenic Jewellery Guide

If your skin turns red, itchy, or irritated after wearing jewellery — you're not alone. Sensitive skin is more common than many people realise, and choosing the right jewellery can make all the difference.

At Lustre of Love, we believe beauty should never come at the cost of comfort. Here’s everything you need to know about skin-friendly jewellery — and why our pieces are made with you in mind.


🔍 What Causes Skin Reactions to Jewellery?

The most common culprit is nickel — a reactive metal often used in inexpensive or mixed-alloy jewellery. Even tiny amounts can trigger:

  • Itching or rashes
  • Redness or swelling
  • Dry patches or bumps

If this sounds familiar, you likely have a nickel allergy, or sensitivity to metals like brass or copper.


Best Jewellery Materials for Sensitive Skin

Here are the safest, most hypoallergenic materials to look for:

1. 316L Stainless Steel (Used at Lustre of Love)

  • Tarnish-free and water-resistant
  • Non-reactive with sweat or perfume
  • Affordable luxury with long-lasting shine
    ✔️ Perfect for daily wear — even in humidity or rain

2. Titanium

  • Extremely lightweight and skin-safe
  • Commonly used in medical implants
    ✔️ Ideal for ultra-sensitive skin

3. Pure Gold (14k and above)

  • Less likely to cause irritation
  • Durable but on the pricier side
    ⚠️ Always check for fillers or mixed alloys

4. Sterling Silver (92.5% Pure Silver)

  • Timeless and elegant
  • May tarnish, but typically gentle on skin
    ⚠️ Avoid silver-plated jewellery with unknown base metals

🛑 Metals to Avoid for Sensitive Skin

  • Nickel – Found in many budget or fashion items
  • Brass – Can oxidise and leave green marks
  • Copper – May cause itching or discolouration

💖 Why Lustre of Love Jewellery is Skin-Safe

All our pieces — from pendants and bracelets to rings and chains — are made from premium 316L stainless steel, carefully chosen to be:

  • Hypoallergenic
  • Waterproof
  • Resistant to sweat and perfumes

We don’t cut corners, and we never compromise on comfort — because your skin deserves the very best.
