Waterproof Earrings

Yes, they are designed with sensitive ears in mind. Every pair starts with 316L surgical-grade stainless steel, the same low-nickel-release material trusted for body-safe jewelry, so most people who react to cheaper metals can wear it comfortably. On the gold styles, a thick layer of 18K gold PVD plating sits between your skin and the steel as an extra barrier. If your ears are highly reactive, patch-test a new pair the way you would with any jewelry.

No, they are made not to leave green marks. That green tint usually comes from copper in inexpensive jewelry reacting with moisture and skin, and our earrings use a stainless steel core with gold applied through PVD (physical vapor deposition) rather than a copper base. Because the color is bonded to the steel instead of dipped on top, it holds up through everyday wear, and our Lifetime Color Warranty stands behind it.

Yes, you can shower, swim, sweat, and surf without taking them off. They are built waterproof, with the gold color bonded to the steel through PVD plating, so fresh water, salt water, and sweat will not wash it away or leave the steel tarnished. Give them an occasional rinse in fresh water and a quick dry, and they will keep looking bright. This is exactly the ocean-and-shower life they were made for.

The posts, hooks, and backs are the same body-safe 316L stainless steel as the rest of each earring, with gold styles finished in 18K gold PVD plating. Sensitive ears tend to react most to the part that sits inside the piercing, so using a low-nickel-release steel there is what matters most, and that is exactly what these use. There is no cheap mystery metal on the post to trigger irritation, and if a style ever feels off, stop wearing it and reach out so we can help.
