Caring for
Jewellery
NOUR London Ltd
Whether it’s fun fashion jewellery or a piece set with diamonds to cherish for a lifetime, all jewellery benefits from special care.
WEARING JEWELLERY
Cosmetics, skincare products, perfume, hairspray – a surprising number of beauty aids have the reverse effect on jewellery, reacting with gold alloys or eroding plated surfaces. So take extra care when you dress and undress.
DO
• Put on jewellery last, after you’ve finished using make up, hairspray and perfume.
• Remove jewellery first when you undress, so chains, bracelets and earrings won’t get caught in your clothes and damaged.
DON’T
• Wear jewellery in the bath or shower, where it can come into contact with bath oils.
• Wear jewellery while you’re swimming chlorine and salt water can also cause damage.
STORING JEWELLERY
DO
• Invest in a jewel case with separate compartments.
• Wrap pearls separately to protect them.
• Store chains flat
DON’T
• Store different types of gemstone together they vary in hardness and the more fragile stones may get scratched.
CLEANING COSTUME JEWELLERY
Cleaning Costume Jewellery is extremely simple but needs to be done on a regular basis to prevent tarnishing. Simply use a dampen cloth with a mild detergent mixed in water. It is important not to soak the jewellery and to make sure that you dry it thor-oughly before storing it.
Costume Jewellery allows you to follow the latest trends without having to spend the hundreds of pounds fine jewellery may cost you. It would be unreasonable to expect Costume Jewellery to last indefinitely even fine jewellery will not look new forever. However, with proper usage and care, you can prolong the life of your jewellery.
