The reaction test

Tell us what your skin does. We’ll tell you where to start.

Three questions. No email. If your neck turns green, or you just gave up on jewelry years ago — this points you to a good place to start.

Why it matters what it’s made of

Most “hypoallergenic” gold is plated brass.

What you’ve been wearing

Plated brass

A thin gold layer over a brass core. The plating can wear through in weeks, and the brass underneath is often what turns skin green.

What MARÉA is

316L stainless steel

A stainless steel core with no brass underneath. The gold color is bonded on by PVD, not dipped — and the pieces are water-resistant.

If your skin reacts, we refund you.

Every MARÉA piece carries a 30-day reaction refund. If your skin reacts within 30 days of delivery, contact support@wearmarea.com for a refund (see our refund policy at /policies/refund-policy). Individual sensitivities vary.
