9ct gold jewellery offers a polished, classic finish for everyday wear and gifting. This selection includes easy pieces such as studs, sleepers, hoops, chains and pendants. Comfort depends on metal tolerance, weight and how long the piece is worn, so choose simple shapes for daily use and more decorative styles for occasions.
Brand science
Key Technology
All jewellery in this collection is made from solid 9ct yellow gold. 9ct gold means the metal contains 37.5% pure gold, with the remaining metal content added during manufacturing to make the jewellery stronger and more suitable for everyday wear. Compared with higher-carat gold such as 18ct, 9ct gold is generally harder and more durable, which is why it is commonly used for daily pieces such as earrings, chains and pendants. Because these pieces are solid 9ct yellow gold rather than plated or costume jewellery, there is no surface coating that can easily wear away. While no jewellery metal can be guaranteed irritation-free for every person, 9ct yellow gold is a practical, durable and skin-conscious choice.
Shopping guide
How to Choose
For daily earrings, start with lighter studs or sleepers. For gifts, chains and pendants are often easier because sizing is less personal. If ears are reactive, avoid heavy earrings for long wear and keep the area clean. Store jewellery dry and remove pieces before swimming or strong cleaning products.

Skin-Friendly 9ct Gold Jewellery FAQs
Common questions about Skin-Friendly 9ct Gold Jewellery products and routines.
Is 9ct gold always safe for sensitive ears?
Not always. 9ct gold can suit many people, but jewellery sensitivity depends on the full alloy, the piercing condition and how long the piece is worn. If ears react easily, start with simple lightweight studs or sleepers, avoid sleeping in new earrings, and stop wearing the piece if redness, swelling or itching develops.
How do skincare and sunscreen affect jewellery?
Sunscreen, moisturiser, perfume and sweat can leave residue on gold jewellery. That residue can dull the finish and may irritate sensitive skin if it sits under earrings or chains. Let skincare absorb before putting jewellery on, wipe pieces gently after wear, and remove jewellery before swimming, heavy sweating or applying fragranced products.
What is the best jewellery choice for daily wear?
For daily wear, choose lightweight pieces with smooth edges and secure closures. Small studs, sleepers and simple chains usually cause less pulling than heavy hoops or decorative pieces. If you are buying a gift, pendants or chains are often easier than earrings because piercing sensitivity and fit are more personal.

⚕
Pregnant, breastfeeding, or managing an autoimmune condition?
Please check with your doctor before starting a new routine. Some ingredients — especially retinoids and hydroquinone, and high-strength salicylic acid — may not be suitable in pregnancy or while nursing. Because safety data is limited and autoimmune conditions vary widely, we can’t give a reliable generic recommendation here. Your gynaecologist or specialist is best placed to advise.
Topical steroid use
Select yes only if you are currently using a topical steroid on your face or the same area, for example hydrocortisone, betamethasone, mometasone or clobetasol. We’ll avoid products that may overlap with or irritate that treated skin.
Used isotretinoin / Accutane in the last 12 months?
Select yes if you have taken Roaccutane, Accutane, Oratane or oral isotretinoin tablets in the last 12 months. We’ll avoid stronger actives that may irritate recently sensitised skin.
Aesthetic treatments
Select peels, laser/IPL or microneedling only if you do them regularly, are in an active treatment plan, or want a gentler routine around treatment periods. For a once-off treatment, you can leave this blank and follow your practitioner’s aftercare advice.

Important: your routine includes a retinoid — please read before starting
Apply at night only, and titrate gradually — begin twice weekly for two weeks, progress to alternate nights, then to nightly use as tolerated.
Broad-spectrum SPF 30+ is essential each morning. Retinoids increase photosensitivity; unprotected sun exposure can worsen pigmentation and irritation.
Do not layer with other actives on the same night — avoid AHAs, BHAs, benzoyl peroxide, and vitamin C to reduce the risk of barrier disruption.
Contraindicated in pregnancy and breastfeeding, and while taking oral isotretinoin (Roaccutane).
If you are uncertain whether a retinoid is appropriate for you, please consult your clinician or speak to one of our aestheticians on WhatsApp before starting.
