Jewelry meets the different fashion needs of intellectual and elegant women. However, the lifespan of jewellery is limited, with the idiom “People will die old and pearls will turn yellow” being described as more apt.

Choosing a piece of jewelry that matches you is indispensable, but how to care for and maintain these beautiful “fragile” necklace with name jewels, so that they can better show your charm is also an essential lesson.

Making sure diamonds do not lose their luster:

Diamonds are one of the most beautiful treasures in the world, that have fascinated countless people, but diamonds, like other items, can lose their luster.

Only careful care can make diamonds last forever. Diamonds are “lipophilic” -a chemical composition which can be dissolved in fats, oils, lipids. Being exposed to grease and dirt on hands, can lead to natural light being instantly obscured.

How to clean and maintain diamonds:

Pour a little detergent into the bowl and stir it with warm water. Then put the diamond into the bowl and rub it with a soft brush. After the brush is finished, remove the diamond into a metal mesh or tea strainer and rinse it off with warm water. Dry it with a soft cloth. Dissolve the detergent in cold water at a ratio of 1 to 4.

Dip the diamond ring into the solution for a few minutes, remove it and wipe it with a soft brush, then rinse it with the solution, then wipe it dry with a paper towel. But remember not to scratch the base of the diamond. If you don’t want to do it yourself, you can go to a jewellery shop to use ultrasonic cleaning.

Metal jewelry is blackened

Measures: Metal cheap custom jewelry attracts the hearts of fashion consumers by virtue of its beautiful appearance, yet hard and colorful characteristics. However, many people spend a lot of money to buy jewelry, but they are not willing to wear them. In fact, wearing them every day is the best way to maintain these metal jewelry. Because the oil secreted by the human body can make the jewelry have a natural and lustrous luster.

But what if the metal shows signs of turning yellow and blackening? At this time, first use a small brush to clean the fine seams of the metal, then use a soft cloth to gently rub the surface of the jewelry. The metal is just as bright as the “back to the original shape”. Be sure to avoid cleaning directly with a hard brush or tissue.

At the same time, it is recommended that you take off the gold and silver jewellery when bathing, shampooing, washing your face, washing your hands, applying makeup or doing housework, so as to avoid the contamination of the surface of gold and silver jewelry by chemicals in soap, detergent and bleach.

Make it lose its luster and produce spots, while avoiding deformation, breakage, and loss of falling off, especially when all kinds of fine name jewelry necklace are not suitable for wearing during sleeping and washing.

Prevent pearl turning yellow

Action: Pearl is an organic gem. If you sunbathe for a long time, the pearl will also have a “wheat skin color”, and this “wheat skin color” is not a beauty but a kind of destruction for pearls.

Some people say that using toothpaste to clean jewelry? That’s wrong. Because the toothpaste contains fine, high-hardness abrasive particles, these particles have a hardness of up to six or seven degrees (almost the same as crystal), so the result of cleaning with toothpaste is that the jewelry will be damaged. Gemstone surfaces that are harder than crystals, especially pearls, can only be cleaned with toothpaste.

Some people say that they should be kept in a sealed bag and protected from light. That’s wrong. Pearls need fresh air. If they are not worn often, they should be taken out every few months to let it breathe air. Otherwise, a white pearl can easily turn yellow. After wearing it, you should also wash it with a “warm bath”. It’s best to wipe it with sheepskin and keep it away from light and dry. Never use facial tissue because the rough surface of the paper will wear pearls.

Some substances that we are exposed to in daily life contain acids or bases of different concentrations. These different concentrations of acid-base chemicals can damage pearls, so our cosmetics and perfumes should be avoided mixing with jewelry as much as possible.

If you are afraid of losing your jewelry upon washing your hands- simply remove jewelry, a small jewelry box can also be used at get name necklace.
