Jewelry Care
Is it okay to wear my jewelry in the water?
Your jewelry can withstand exposure to fresh water without damage, as the metals we use are resistant to rust and tarnishing. It's advisable to dry off your pieces after they come into contact with water.
When showering, it's important to be cautious about using harsh soaps and shampoos that could potentially affect the jewelry's appearance.
Be mindful of water treated with chemicals, and it's recommended to remove your jewelry before swimming in a pool or hot tub.
If you prefer to wear your jewelry while showering:
Opt for mild, low pH soaps and shampoos, and avoid highly fragranced or antibacterial products.
Thoroughly rinse your piece after exposure to any products.
Remove your jewelry when applying lotions or creams, and put it back on once the lotion is fully absorbed.
Will my piece tarnish?
18K Gold-Plated:
18K Gold-plated items can develop a patina over time but can be easily restored with our provided polishing cloth. Use it sparingly, ensuring not to press too hard to avoid rubbing off the gold plating.
Sterling Silver:
While sterling silver naturally tarnishes over time, it's easily restored using a polishing cloth or silver-specific cleaning products. To minimize tarnishing, store it in an airtight bag and avoid exposure to humidity.
Rose Gold-Plated:
Rose gold-plated jewelry may be more prone to tarnishing due to the copper alloy mixed with the gold. To maintain its luster, avoid contact with any substances, clean it with mild soap, and store it in an airtight container.
How should I clean and maintain my jewelry?
Despite your best efforts, your body's natural oils can contribute to tarnishing over time. We suggest giving your jewelry a thorough cleaning every twelve wears by soaking it in a mild dish soap and warm water solution for approximately one minute. Afterward, gently rub it with a soft-bristled brush or cotton cloth.
Here are some additional useful tips to ensure the longevity of your pieces:
Wipe off makeup and oils with a soft cloth after each use to prevent residue buildup.
Avoid exposing your jewelry to harsh chemicals found in perfumes and hairsprays by putting it on last during your daily routine.
After particularly active days, be sure to clean off any accumulated sweat.
Beware of sunscreen as it can expedite tarnishing on your pieces.
Keep your jewelry clean when not in use, and store it in an airtight container such as a ziplock bag.
Remove your jewelry before going to bed to preserve its condition for as long as possible.
How do I properly store my jewelry when it's not being worn?
Effective storage habits are key in maintaining your piece's pristine appearance for an extended period. By minimizing its exposure to air and reducing oxidation, you can effectively slow down the tarnishing process. Here are some useful storage tips:
Ensure your piece is clean and dry before storing it after regular use.
Opt for small ziplock bags as they are affordable, easily portable, prevent tangling, and create an airtight environment for your jewelry.
For pieces with chains, make sure to fasten the clasp before storage to prevent tangling.
Store your jewelry in a low-humidity environment to prevent tarnishing.
When traveling, store the ziplock bag inside a small, sturdy container, especially for more delicate pieces.
