Is the jewelry suitable for people with allergies?

Many of our PURELEI jewelry pieces are also suitable for sensitive skin. However, compatibility may vary depending on the material used.

Updated this week

Stainless steel jewelry

Most of our collection is made from stainless steel (316L). This material is nickel-free*, skin-friendly, and well tolerated by most people, even those with sensitive skin.


Gold-plated variants

Jewelry with gold or rose gold plating is also based on stainless steel and is generally well tolerated by the skin. However, as with all plated jewelry, very sensitive skin may react individually in some cases.


Silver & natural materials

Some of our designs, such as those made from 925 sterling silver or with natural materials like pearls or shells, are also skin-friendly because they do not contain allergenic metals. Nevertheless, every skin reacts differently.

Tip for sensitive skin

If your skin reacts particularly sensitively to jewelry, it may help to:

  • rinse the jewelry with mild soapy water before wearing it for the first time

  • avoid contact with perfume, creams, or sweat immediately after putting it on

  • temporarily choose another material option if irritation occurs

You can always find the exact material details on the respective product page under “Material & Details.”

*Our jewelry of course complies with the applicable EU regulations regarding nickel release.
However, minimal traces of nickel cannot be completely excluded due to the nature of the materials.
