TIP #1:
Avoid contact with lotions, sprays, oils and perfumes. Do not use cleaning chemicals on your jewellery. It is recommended to use a soft microfibre cloth to wipe your items after each wear. This removes excess oils, lotions or perfumes that may have transferred from your skin.
(Helpful Habit: Jewellery should always be the last thing to put on in the morning, and the first thing to take off at night)
TIP #2:
Avoid moisture. Do not wear your jewels in water
(e.g. shower, swimming, sauna, hot tub) or while exercising.
The moisture in the air is what starts the tarnishing process. Keeping your jewellery dry is one of the best ways to help keep its shine and sparkle. We recommend wiping your jewellery after wear with a soft, chemical-free cloth. To help prevent early tarnishing, items should be stored in an airtight bag.

TIP #3:
Store your pieces carefully. After wiping down your jewellery, store your items in individual bags to avoid scratching and tarnishing. Keep out of direct sunlight and away from humid environments (i.e. the bathroom). To prevent your chain necklaces from becoming tangled, simply run your fingers along the chain (with the clasp undone) from the middle out to the ends.
This trick helps any twists to be straightened out and is a great habit to get into before storing your favourite pieces so they are ready for you next time!
