Celebrities Flaunting Their Lab-Grown Diamonds

What are lab-grown diamonds?

Lab-grown diamonds are diamonds that have been created in a lab instead of being mined from the earth. They are chemically, physically, and optically identical to a mined diamond. However, they have much lesser impacts on people and the environment and hence are more sustainable and eco-friendly. They make for the perfect jewellery for the Conscious Customer. 

Today, many people are making the switch to lab-grown diamonds because of their benefits and also because of their price point. Renowned celebrities have not been left behind on this trend; here are some of the celebrities that have been spotted sporting some beautiful lab-grown pieces.
