Now that it's summer, and your skin is finally getting some sun, you want to flaunt in your summer outfit with your jewellery! Unfortunately, sun, sea, pool, sweat, and sunscreen aren't really conducive to preserving your jewellery. We've compiled a list of some of our best tips to keep your jewellery looking as beautiful as the day you got them! Just follow these simple steps for jewellery that will shine and sparkle for years to come...
1. Opt for real solid gold!
Well, of course, the tip with the most valuable price tag, but it's true: Gold stays beautiful forever, even in the summer! We have a beautiful collection of 14k solid gold jewellery. Personalize with birth flowers, fingerprints, or the name of your loved one and shine this summer, even in your bikini!
2. Keep your jewellery away from chemicals
Your new jewellery should be the finishing touch to your outfitโthat means putting them on after applying your makeup and spraying any perfume, hairspray, lotions, or other beauty products. The chemicals in these products can damage your jewellery and diminish the shine, so don't let them come into contact.
Fine jewellery should be removed before using household cleaning agents. Many of these cleansers contain ammonia, which can be too harsh for jewellery.
3. Remove your jewellery in contact with water
Especially in the case of chlorinated water! Always take off jewellery before entering the pool or going to the spa. You should also remove your jewellery before showering or bathing, as even plain water can cause metal to lose its luster. Also, always take off your jewellery when exercising in the gym or engaging in contact sports.
4. Keep your jewellery away from direct sunlight
Prolonged exposure to light and heat can affect the color and durability of many materials, so make sure to protect your jewellery from these harsh conditions. If you're not wearing your new piece, store it in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight.
5. Safely store your jewellery
Neatly storing jewellery can make a difference when it comes to keeping your jewellery in perfect condition. By storing your jewellery in our MAMALOVES Gift Box or the Luxury Velvet Jewellery Box, you prevent items from scratching and bumping against each other, and you also keep your collection away from direct sunlight and protected from dust. Alternatively, you can store each new piece of jewellery in a fabric pouch or bags. In addition to keeping your jewellery in top condition, keeping your jewellery organized and untangled will help you find the piece you're looking for more quickly!
