Jewellery Care
Our jewellery is designed to be loved and worn for years to come, but like most things in life it needs a little TLC along the way. Here everything you need to knoe To keep your 22 carat gold-plated or sterling silver Amalfi Moon jewellery as shiny as possible:
Reduce Exposure To Chemicals
Looking after your jewellery starts at the beginning of your day. Exposure to soaps, perfumes and lotions, including fake tan, hand-sanitiser and deodorant/body sprays, can result in tarnishing your jewellery over a longer period of time.
To prevent this we suggest waiting some minutes for any of the above to settle after applying, before putting on your jewellery. And don’t forget to remove your jewellery if you’re reapplying throughout the day.
Remove On The Reg
We’re all about wearing your jewellery every day, but to keep your pieces looking their absolute best we highly recommend you remove your jewellery every time you wash or sanitise your hands, exercise and shower.
Relocate, Protect & Store
Where your jewellery sits when you’re not wearing it is just as important as when you’re wearing it. It’s best to store your favourite pieces in a clean dry place, such as a jewellery box or a fabric lined case. If possible, keep your jewellery in an airtight container, out of direct sunlight to prevent fading or oxidisation.
If you don’t have any of the above (immediately starts hunt for the perfect jewellery box), the fabric pouch your jewellery comes in is a great ‘in-between’ place to store your jewellery. Please note we do not recommend using our packaging box for long-term storage.
We also advise storing the same metals together as mixing silver and gold-plated jewellery for too long can result in tarnishing. Don’t worry of you’re a mixed metal gal, styling together each day won’t cause any harm.
Revive With A Good Old Pamper
You should polish your jewellery every few months. Being gentle is key! We’d recommend either using a microfiber cloth or a specialist jewellery cleaning one. NO other products or chemicals are recommended for gold-plated jewellery. Silver pieces can be cleaned gently using warm soapy water. Please note - Daisy does not provide re-plating of jewellery so following all of these care tips is important in order to keep your jewellery sparkling for years to come.
