Carat Yellow

Why does my 10 carat yellow gold ring make a greenish/gray ring around my finger?

I have a 10 carat gold ring I wear almost every day. I tend to notice that when I am at work, where my stress level is highest, my finger will get this green/gray color underneath the ring and will smudge onto my next finger. Why does this happen AND why doesn't it happen everyday? Please help!

It is actually your body chemicals. It causes your fingers to turn green. I had the same problem with cheap jewelery, I use to take CLEAR nail polish and paint the inside so there is a barrier between the jewelery and your finger. My grandma did it with her silver and gold jewelery because she had the same problem. It DOES rub off after a while too and doesn't damage your jewelery!!!
