Metal containing copper will turn your skin green. You can coat the inside of the ring with clear nailpolish to help prevent it from happening. If you wear it frequently you will have to re-apply after awhile.

your skin just kinda has a reaction to either low quality metal or copper. My 10K gold ring makes my finger turn black it I wear it constantly for a long time, one of my friends can't wear nickel, and my sister can't wear silver. You can prevent it with clear nail polish. For earrings, put neosporin or something like that on it.

My concern is a unusual one. The 14 kt gold ring turns my ring finger eco-friendly on the right hand yet mot my left! i tried wearing my wedding ceremony bands on the right hand area and they did a similar. Any factors for this oddity?

Chemicle reaction to acid in your body. The ring base metal is copper or brass.

Not enough silver content....... Oxidation.....You body's salt content breaks down the oils on the metal and creates the green ring....:)

oxidation of the metal turns your finger green. It is from cheap and unpure metals.

It's a mixture of poor quality metal and the acid in your sweat
