How to Care for Your Fashion Jewellery

Fashion jewellery is beautiful, affordable and versatile — but it does need a little care to stay looking its best. Here are our top tips for keeping your pieces shining.

1. Keep Away from Water

Always remove your jewellery before bathing, swimming or washing hands. Water — especially chlorinated or salt water — can speed up tarnishing and damage plated finishes.

2. Avoid Perfume and Chemicals

Apply perfume, hairspray and lotions before putting on your jewellery. Chemicals in these products can react with the metal and cause discolouration.

3. Store Properly

Store each piece separately in a soft pouch or jewellery box to prevent scratches. Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

4. Clean Gently

Use a soft dry cloth to gently wipe your jewellery after each wear. For deeper cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately.

5. Remove Before Exercise

Sweat contains salts that can accelerate tarnishing. Always remove jewellery before working out or any physical activity.
