How to Care for Your Jewelry
At Everglow Jewelry, we believe your jewelry isn’t just an accessory—it’s a personal treasure, full of memories, milestones, and meaning. Whether it’s a sparkling diamond engagement ring, a dainty gold necklace, or heirloom earrings, proper care can keep your pieces looking beautiful for generations. Here's how to protect your jewelry and keep its brilliance glowing.
1. Clean Gently and Regularly
Your jewelry is exposed to oils, lotions, and everyday dust that can dull its shine. Cleaning your pieces regularly can help maintain their sparkle.
Use a soft toothbrush and a solution of mild dish soap and warm water.
Gently scrub the piece, especially around prongs and settings.
Rinse thoroughly and pat dry with a soft lint-free cloth.
Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that can damage stones and metal.
2. Store with Care
Proper storage is just as important as cleaning.
Keep jewelry in a fabric-lined box or a soft pouch to avoid scratches.
Store pieces separately to prevent tangling and contact damage.
Keep silver pieces in anti-tarnish bags or cloths to slow down oxidation.
3. Know When to Take It Off
Jewelry is meant to be worn and enjoyed, but there are times it’s best to give it a break.
Remove rings and bracelets before heavy lifting, exercise, or cleaning.
Avoid wearing jewelry in pools, hot tubs, or while using harsh household cleaners.
Take off delicate pieces before bed to avoid accidental damage.
4. Get Professional Check-Ups
Just like you visit the doctor or dentist for checkups, your jewelry needs a little professional TLC too.
Bring your pieces to Everglow Jewelry for an annual cleaning and inspection.
We can check for loose stones, worn prongs, and any needed repairs.
Early detection can prevent a minor issue from becoming a costly loss.
5. Be Mindful with Lotions, Perfumes, and Cosmetics
Many beauty products contain chemicals that can damage metals and dull gemstones.
Apply lotions, hairspray, and perfume before putting on your jewelry.
Let products fully absorb and dry to minimize exposure.
