Care tips for jewelry ✨

BASIC CARE FOR ALL JEWELRY :

* When you are not wearing your jewelry, it is recommended that you always Store in a waterproof resealable bag or in a closed jewelry box to avoid contact with air. This will help keep them looking new for longer, reduce oxidation, corrosion, discoloration and avoid unnecessary damage.

* It is best to remove jewelry before showering, swimming, sports, gardening and before going to bed for the night. Avoid contact with water, humidity, extreme heat, long hours in the sun, detergents, creams, antibacterial gel, cosmetic products and anything that is acidic and/or could discolor the jewelry .

-----------------

HYPOALLERGENIC :

The term hypoallergenic means that the composition of the alloy minimizes the risk of allergies. Rarely causes an allergic reaction.

TIPS FOR CLEANING JEWELRY :

Attention : To clean your jewelry, make sure avoid using products that are too powerful , which could damage their color and shine.

♻️ I advise you to opt for natural and ecological ingredients.

Baking soda is non-toxic to the environment, biodegradable and is a 100% ecological product.

White vinegar is non-toxic for the environment, biodegradable, it is a 100% natural and ecological product.

-----------------

PEARLS, PREMIUM AND NATURAL STONES :

~ It is suggested to clean them by gently wiping them with a soft cloth dampened with lukewarm water and then drying well.

* To recharge a piece of fine stone jewelry with good energy, you can expose it to the light of the full moon for a whole night .

* Our elastic bracelets are made with strong, high quality elastic rope, but you still need to avoid stretching them unnecessarily in order to preserve their lifespan.

-----------------

STAINLESS STEEL :

Silver-colored stainless steel is a metal that reflects a unique, brilliant light. He is very used for the creation of our jewelry, for all its advantages which make it possible to obtain very durable jewelry and will only require a minimum of maintenance. This material is hypoallergenic, strong, resistant to water, humidity, does not rust, and it is very corrosive. In addition, it is ECOLOGICAL AND RECYCLABLE ♻️💚. It does not require any special care, but if you wish, it can always be beneficial to give it a little cleaning on occasion.

~ You can clean steel silver-colored stainless steel , using a good amount of baking soda in a little water and leave them to bathe for a few hours. Rub gently with a micro fiber cloth to remove residue. Rinse with clean lukewarm water, then dry with a soft cloth.

* Attention, for chains, clasps and components in gold, rosegold and black plated stainless steel , avoid all acidic cleaners such as alcohol, vinegar, lemon or toothpaste. This could damage their finish. Additionally avoid contact with water, humidity, extreme heat, detergents, cream, cosmetic products, this may cause deterioration of the color coating.

If your skin acidity level is high, this may cause the jewelry to change color. We then suggest that you choose a piece of silver-colored stainless steel jewelry, without any plating.

GOLD, ROSEGOLD and BLACK PLATED :

Gold, rosegold and black plating is a very successful reproduction of gold real, which allows you to fashion equally beautiful and inexpensive jewelry. However, it is not a question real gold . It tends to tarnish and discolor over time in contact with the acidity of the skin, sweat, water, humidity, heat, creams, perfumes etc... Indeed, this precious metal is applied over a brass base (mixture of copper and zinc) because it is a solid material which generally causes few allergies.

~ It is suggested to simply remove the dust with a soft cloth (example: a cloth for cleaning glasses).

------------------

925 STERLING SILVER :

925 sterling silver is made of 92.5% silver and 7.5% other metals. 925 sterling silver is hypoallergenic, but it tends to oxidize and tarnish over time (this is why we prefer to use silver stainless steel).

* To clean this jewelry, there is always the simple alternative of using a non-toxic cleaning and polishing wipe for silver jewelry or trying to clean it with more organic homemade recipes:

~ If they are slightly tarnished, you can soak them in about 1 cup of pure distilled white vinegar for 1 hour and then rinse with lukewarm water.

~If they are too tarnished, you can soak these in about 1 cup of pure distilled white vinegar and 4 tbsp. of baking soda (pour gently to avoid overflow due to chemical reaction) in a container to completely cover the silver jewelry. Leave to soak overnight or longer if necessary, then rinse with clean lukewarm water, then dry with a soft cloth.
