Summer Jewelry Care

As summer rolls in, you're likely wearing your favorite jewelry more often. With increased exposure to the elements, it's essential to keep your pieces looking their best. Here are some tips to maintain the brilliance of your jewelry throughout the season.

 

EARRING JEWELRY CARE:

Earrings are frequently overlooked when it comes to regular cleaning, yet they can easily accumulate skin cells, bacteria, and oils. This not only dulls their shine but can also affect ear health, potentially leading to infections. Ensure you clean your earrings regularly to maintain both their sparkle and your ear hygiene.

SHAY Recommendation: Clean your everyday earrings with a Radiance Towelette at least once a week to restore shine and prevent unwanted buildup.

 

NECKLACE JEWELRY CARE:

Necklaces, especially those worn daily, can quickly gather perfumes, oils, skin cells, lotions, and makeup residue. This buildup can dull their appearance and harm any gemstones they may feature. Cleaning your necklaces weekly helps preserve their metal and gemstone integrity.

SHAY Recommendation: Clean your everyday necklaces with a Radiance Towelette at least once a week to restore shine and prevent unwanted buildup.

 

RING JEWELRY CARE:

Rings are in constant contact with your hands and fingers, making them prone to collecting bacteria and environmental contaminants. Over time, exposure to lotions, oils, and beauty products can cause them to lose their luster. Regular cleaning will not only restore their shine but also ensure they remain safe for your skin.

SHAY Recommendation: We recommend using the Radiance Wash for daily shine, as it is designed to be used every time you wash your hands. For shine on-the-go, we recommend the Radiance Towelettes, as they do not require water or rinsing.

 

BEST PRACTICES:

  • Weekly Cleaning: Clean your everyday earrings and necklaces at least once a week to remove buildup and restore shine.
  • Daily Maintenance: For rings, consider using a gentle wash each time you wash your hands to maintain their sparkle.
  • On-the-Go Care: Keep handy towelettes for quick, water-free cleaning anytime, anywhere.
