Basic Guidelines for Caring for Jewelry at Home

Everyone wears some kind of jewelry every single day. But not many people realize what it takes to preserve their jewelry and keep it looking new no matter how long ago it was purchased. Here are a few simple instructions to keep in mind when you wear personalized jewelry, no matter if it is a solid gold name necklace or a gold plated one, or even a sterling silver monogram bracelet!

Put on your jewelry AFTER applying your makeup. Lotions, hairspray, and certain cosmetics have chemicals in them that can cause damage to jewelry, such as tarnishing. By putting on jewelry after putting on makeup, you limit your jewelry's exposure to the chemicals.

Do not wear jewelry while cleaning. Like makeup, cleaning supplies contain chemicals that, if it comes in contact with jewelry, will diminish the sheen of the jewelry accessory.

Jewelry and pools don't mix. In the summer, we all love to take a dip in the pool or relax in a nice jacuzzi, just make sure you take your jewelry off first! Chlorinated water damages the metal in jewelry, causing damage and color change.

Take off jewelry before showering. The chemicals in your soaps and shampoos cause a film to form over your jewelry, dulling the sheen and making your jewelry seem dingy.

Properly store your jewelry. Keep your jewelry organized and it will stay pristine! Jewelry should be stored in a container that prevents the items from jingling and jangling about. Any jewelry box with a felt lining would work. You can even line a shoebox with fabric pieces for a DIY result. It is good to also invest in anti-tarnish strips to put inside your container to absorb tarnish-causing oxidants.
