Jewellery care guideUpdated 4 months ago

We know that sometimes jewellery can get dirty, here are a few tips to keep your bling nice and shiny! 

As it is a thin layer of gold, extra care should be taken to maximize its lifespan. 

• Do not spray on perfume or other sprays while wearing your gold-plated jewellery. 
• Wear your jewellery after you have sprayed on your favourite perfume so that the chemicals on the spray or perfume do not interact with your jewellery’s metal. 
• Wait until your lotion or cream is dry or has been absorbed by your skin before you wear your gold-plated ring, bracelet or necklace. 
• Substances like oil, nail polish, nail polish remover, chlorine, perfume and the like may react with metal/plated jewellery and will cause it to tarnish easily. 
• This also goes with sweat, so make sure you don’t forget to remove your gold-plated jewellery when you exercise or anything that would require heavy physical work, and also when swimming.
• Every after use, clean your plated jewellery with a cotton ball or a very soft cloth to remove any dust and dirt it has acquired. 
• Gently rubbing the surface of your gold-plated jewellery using a soft jewellery cloth also helps restore shine. 
• If your jewellery needs more cleaning you may clean it with warm, soapy water. Soak it for a few minutes and you may clean it with a soft brush. 
• Stay away from jewellery cleaners and antibacterial soaps which may have certain components that will just make your gold-plated jewellery tarnish more quickly. 
• To avoid scratches, wrap your jewellery in a soft cloth after cleaning or keep it in a jewellery box separate from other types of jewellery you have.
