Jewelry Care

 We all love our pieces (maybe a little too much!), and taking a few little steps can keep them shiny for longer. We recommend cleaning your pieces once a month to keep them in great shape. 

 

Cleaning gold jewelry:

• Use mild soap and lukewarm water and soak your piece in the solution for 5 minutes. 
• Gently scrub your piece with a soft bristled toothbrush or with your fingers. Make sure to really focus on the areas with the most build-up.
• Gently pat your piece dry with a soft cloth.
• Rinse and repeat if needed. 

Day-to-day preventative care:

Gold plated jewelry is amazing for everyday wear, but avoiding certain things will help prolong its lifetime and shine. Here are some guidelines to follow: 

• Don't apply harsh chemicals directly on the pieces (e.g. hand sanitizer, lotion, perfume, sunscreen). If you are applying these on your body, put your jewelry on after everything is applied.
• Avoid pools and hot tubs, as the chlorine will damage the gold. 
• Avoid swimming in the ocean, as the salt water can harm the gold.
• When you are not wearing your gold filled jewelry, store it in a sealed zip lock bag or jewelry bag.

If you do accidentally do these a few times, not to worry! Your pieces are very durable. But - if you follow these guidelines, your pieces will last longer.
