How to prevent your jewelry from oxidizing and the gold from fading
Your jewelry will last a long time if you remember to take good care of it. So read on here to learn what to avoid to prevent oxidation and protect the gold plating. Gold plating will eventually wear off, but you can prolong this process by taking care of them <3
- Take off your jewelry at night, as you often sweat at night, which can cause discoloration on the jewelry and skin.
- Do not let your jewelry come into contact with water when washing your hands, cleaning, and showering, to more easily avoid contact with soaps. This also extends the gold plating of the jewelry.
- Take off all your jewelry when applying makeup, cream, or perfume. This is especially important with my freshwater pearls, as they lose their luster if they come into contact with beauty products.
- When cooking, it's also a good idea to leave your jewelry off, so you avoid a splatter of meat sauce on your favorite bracelet ;)
Re-gilding
My jewelry is 18-karat gold-plated sterling silver. This means that the gold will wear off over time. To make your gold jewelry last forever, I offer to re-gild them for only DKK 100 per piece. Send me an email at info@sifjasminsmykker.dk if you wish to have your jewelry re-gilded✨
Why has my jewelry turned black?
How to clean your black jewelry
The black discoloration can be removed by dipping it in liquid silver cleaner for 5 seconds and no more, as they can become dull from this. Afterwards, rinse your jewelry in water and dry it with a cloth.
