Designer Jewelry Care

Unfortunately, gold plating isn’t invincible.

So how do you protect your plated jewelry? Here's a few tips: 

  1. Wipe your designer jewelry with your HC Pink Polishing Cloth after each use to remove any dirt or debris.
  2. Remove your jewelry before you swim in chlorine or salt water.
  3. Remove your jewelry before participating in activities that will cause you to sweat a lot.
  4. Wait to put on your jewelry until after you have applied lotion, makeup or perfume.
  5. Remove jewelry if you will be bringing it into contact with something hard. (For example, take off your ring before lifting weights.)
  6. Store your plated jewelry where it won’t rub against other hard substances (a soft bag—one per piece of jewelry—is ideal).

You may also soak it for a few minutes in warm, soapy water and dry it with a soft cloth as needed (or a soft toothbrush to clean small cracks and crevices).
