When choosing jewellery, it's easy to focus on how a piece looks. But if you wear jewellery every day, the quality of the pieces is so important. High-quality metals are not only more durable, but they're also much kinder to sensitive skin.
That's why SkinStore offers a beautiful range of Skin-Friendly 9ct Gold Jewellery and 925 Sterling Silver Jewellery. Whether you're shopping for yourself or looking for a thoughtful gift, these collections are filled with classic pieces that are made to be worn and enjoyed every day.
What Does "Skin-Friendly Jewellery" Mean?
Skin-friendly jewellery is made from metals that are less likely to cause irritation or allergic reactions. Many inexpensive fashion jewellery pieces contain metals such as nickel, which can cause itching, redness or discomfort for people with sensitive skin.
Choosing jewellery made from precious metals like 9ct gold or 925 sterling silver is a simple way to avoid many of these issues. These metals are well known for being more suitable for everyday wear while also offering better quality and durability than many costume jewellery alternatives.
What Does 9ct Gold Mean?
If you've ever wondered what 9ct gold actually means, it refers to the amount of pure gold in the jewellery.
Pure gold is 24 carats, but because it's naturally quite soft, it isn't the most practical choice for jewellery that's worn regularly. 9ct gold contains 37.5% pure gold, with the remaining 62.5% made up of other metals that make it stronger and more durable. You'll often see this marked with a 375 hallmark.
This combination gives you the beauty of real gold while making it much better suited to everyday wear. Whether you prefer a simple chain, a delicate pendant or a pair of classic earrings, 9ct gold offers a timeless look that never goes out of style.
Understanding 925 Sterling Silver
Sterling silver has been a popular choice for jewellery for many years, and it's easy to see why. It's versatile, elegant and works with almost any outfit.
The 925 hallmark means the jewellery is made from 92.5% pure silver, with the remaining 7.5% made up of strengthening metals. This gives sterling silver the durability it needs for everyday wear while keeping its beautiful bright finish.
Because of its high silver content, sterling silver is also a popular choice for people with sensitive skin. With a little care and regular cleaning, it can keep its shine for years.
Jewellery You'll Keep Reaching For
Whether you're adding to your own collection or buying a gift for someone special, SkinStore's jewellery collection offers pieces that are made to last.

These are the kind of jewellery staples you'll find yourself wearing again and again, no matter the occasion.
