Hello! I have a question about white gold. I know that it can cause an allergic reaction, especially with earrings. I have never had a problem, and almost all of my earrings are 10K or 14K white gold- I wear white gold earrings every day. I just bought a really cool pair of small diamond hoops from Blue Nile, they are 18K white gold, beautiful sparkly stones, perfect size, great price. However, when I put them on, they made my ears sting and burn after wearing them for a few hours. I tried again the next day, same thing happened.
Blue nile said it''s ok to return them since I had an allergic reaction, which I am sad that I have to do because they are exactly what I wanted... My question is, why would my ears be ok with wearing 10K and 14K white gold earrings every day, and then react to higher quality 18K??? It''s not just their jewery because I have two other pairs of 14K white gold earrings from them, with no problem. Thanks!
