Read bellow Q&A to learn how to take proper care of your jewelry and ensure that it lasts for years.

1.How to Properly Care for Gold-Plated Jewelry？

Use a dedicated jewelry box or bag: Make sure to store your jewelry in the box or bag that came with it. This prevents the jewelry from getting scratched or damaged when placed against other items, which is one of the reasons why jewelry loses its shine.

Store in a cool and dry place: When not being worn, place your jewelry in a cool and dry location, away from the moisture. Avoid leaving your jewelry in the bathroom, as humidity is the number one reason why jewelry gets darkened and loses its shine.

Clean regularly: Use a soft, non-abrasive cloth to clean your jewelry once a month. This removes the buildup of dust and grease from frequent wearing and maintains a lasting shine and bright gold color.

By following these simple steps, your gold-plated jewelry will stay shiny and last for years, adding even more sparkle to your beauty!

2. CAN I SWIM WEARING GOLD PLATED JEWELRY IN A POOL OR OCEAN?

Jewelry with sterling silver base should not be worn when swimming in the pool or ocean. Salty or chlorinated water will trigger corrosion process that will eventually destroy the gold plating. waring your jewelry as even a single time exposure to salt or chlorine will trigger the tarnishing process that unfortunately cannot be reversed. If it happened that you swam wearing your jewelry in the pool or ocean- wash your jewelry with clean water as soon as possible as then dry with a soft cloth.

3. CAN I WEAR GOLD PLATED JEWELRY WHEN TAKING SHOWER?

Occasional exposure to tap water will not damage high quality gold plated jewelry, but we recommend avoiding showering with the jewelry on frequently because products like shower gel, soap or shampoo will cause your jewelry to become dull and/or tarnished.

Frequent exposure to tap water will also result in brass jewelry loosing its shiny gold color over time.

4. WHAT ELSE CAN I DO TO MAKE SURE MY JEWELRY LASTS FOR A LONG TIME?

Chemicals in products like sun tanning lotion, hair spray, perfume, nail polish remover, body oils, deodorant will damage gold plated/gold filled jewelry and trigger the corrosion process that will eventually lead to darkening & dulling of the jewelry.

To make sure your jewelry lasts for years, make sure that putting your jewelry on is the last step of your dressing up routine.

5. HOW TO CLEAN GOLD PLATED JEWELRY?

Clean your jewelry regularly with the soft, non abrasive cloth. Simply wipe your jewelry to remove grease and dirt that might accumulate on the surface if you wear your jewelry frequently. This will help maintain the shine and bright gold color.
