The rise of small businesses that provide jewelry and accessories has made it easy to purchase trendy and affordable pieces. However, most of the time the tradeoff for the price is quality. If you experience itchiness, swelling, redness, or a blue/green residue it is most likely because you are having an allergic reaction to the material of the product. Most of these products are made with cheap nickel, copper, and brass.

At Shop Magbea we strongly suggest you stay as far away as possible from jewelry that is not hypoallergenic and tarnish-free. These types of jewelry can cause unwanted infections and rashes and leave a discoloration of the cheap material on your skin. They tend to last very little and will tarnish over time with a mixture of water and oxygen.

Many vendors claim to have pure long-lasting brass or gold jewelry; however, if it does not exclusively state that it is hypoallergenic or tarnish-free, we recommend you look elsewhere. In cases like these, Fernanda Villarreal, and Erika Carrizales the founders of Shop Magbea believe it is worth investing more money into a product that will last you a long time and look as beautiful as it was intended.

Luckily enough, all of Shop Magbea’s jewelry pieces are hypoallergenic and tarnish-free. We believe in providing our customers with the best quality products while keeping our prices affordable. There's nothing more annoying than wearing something so beautiful and having to take it off because it bothers you or stains. Shop Magbea suggests you avoid all nonhypoallergenic and non-tarnish-free jewelry to avoid complications and invest a little more of your time and money on the products that'll make the purchase worth it.
