How to Care for Your Jewelry
At BeblueBijoux, we want your jewelry to maintain its shine and beauty over time. To do so, proper care is essential. Unfortunately, some everyday habits can damage your precious pieces without you even realizing it. Here are four common mistakes to avoid to keep your jewelry in top condition.
Avoid These Common Mistakes:
Spraying Perfume Directly on Your Jewelry
While perfume is part of our daily routine, spraying it directly on your jewelry can damage it. The chemicals in perfume can alter the shine of metals and stones.
Tip: Apply your perfume before putting on your jewelry and let it dry before wearing your pieces.
Applying Lotion or Body Spray on Your Jewelry
Body lotions and sprays can leave oily or chemical residues that dull your jewelry over time. This is especially true for sterling silver, vermeil gold, and precious stones.
Tip: Apply skincare products before putting on your jewelry and allow them to fully absorb before wearing your pieces.
Wearing Jewelry in the Spa or Pool
Chlorine from pools and heat from spas can damage metals and alter stones. Saltwater, too, can cause corrosion of certain materials, like silver, and dull the colors of stones.
Tip: Always remove your jewelry before heading to the pool or spa to preserve its quality and shine.
Storing Jewelry Improperly
Improper storage can lead to scratches, tangling, or deformation. Humidity and heat can also affect metals and stones.
Tip: Store your jewelry in a dry, cool place, preferably in a jewelry box with individual compartments or a velvet pouch. Avoid storing it in the bathroom or near sunlit window
