One of the biggest health problems when wearing costume jewelry is the development of skin allergies called "contact dermatitis". As far as jewelry is concerned, contact dermatitis is an inflammation of the skin usually caused by contact with metals. One of the main metals used in the jewelry industry (especially Costume) is nickel along with other metal alloys such as copper, lead or brass.
NickelBlock Skin Cream, Inc. has invented a skin compound that significantly slows down or completely blocks the development of skin rash after exposure to such metals.
An inflammatory response is the immune system's reaction to contact with foreign particles. When applied once a week, NickelBlock™ Cream begins to act as a natural shield against the allergy causing agent in metal. It also contains vitamins, minerals, lipids and amino acids that greatly improve the natural protective function of the upper skin layers.
In the United States, nearly 30% of women wearing jewelry containing nickel develop contact dermatitis.
