This time, we will focus on the 18K and 10K yellow gold, white gold, and platinum items handled by BANYAN, and explain everything from daily handling to simple care and proper storage methods.
As the weather gets warmer, you might be wondering how to care for your jewelry that directly touches your skin. If you've ever experienced your favorite jewelry looking dull or losing its shine due to sweat, sebum, sunscreen, or cosmetics, then this is a must-read for you.
Additionally, we will provide tips and advice for those who "basically never take off their jewelry!"
Please use this as a reference to keep your precious jewelry beautiful for a long time.
Why is jewelry care necessary?
Although precious metals are very stable materials, daily wear inevitably causes sweat, sebum, soap scum, cosmetics, and dust to adhere to them.
The accumulation of these impurities can cause the original shine to be lost and can lead to discoloration of the metal.
Especially in the upcoming sweaty season, regular care is key to maintaining the beauty of your jewelry.
Simple daily handling
Before wearing jewelry, make sure to apply perfume and sunscreen.
If these substances adhere, the shine may dull.
Always remove jewelry when entering hot springs or saunas.
It is also recommended to remove it when doing water-related tasks with detergents or engaging in strenuous exercise.
Please handle it gently to avoid bumping or dropping it.
A little bit of care can reduce the burden on your jewelry.
Wipe gently after use
Jewelry gets dirty with sweat, sebum, and dust after use.
To preserve the original shine of your jewelry, remember to gently wipe away dirt with a dry, soft cloth before storing it after each use.
Just as you take a bath or do your skincare routine at the end of the day, why not take a little extra care of your precious jewelry?
You'll surely grow to love it even more.
Easy! At-home care
For everyday care, the basic method is to gently wash with lukewarm water and a neutral detergent.
Add a few drops of neutral detergent (such as dish soap) to lukewarm water in a basin and soak your jewelry.
Gently scrub the dirt-prone areas with a soft brush (like a toothbrush).
Afterward, rinse the detergent thoroughly under running water.
Finally, carefully wipe off any moisture with a soft cloth, and its shine will return.
Proper Storage
When not in use, store your jewelry so it doesn't get tangled or scratched by other pieces. We recommend using a jewelry box with dividers or individual small pouches.
Diamonds, in particular, can easily scratch other metals, so exercise caution.
Avoid humid places and direct sunlight.
Proper storage alone can prevent discoloration and scratches.
For those who "always wear their jewelry"
Some of you may want to wear your jewelry all the time.
However, sweat and dirt tend to accumulate, causing the original shine to fade easily.
Even just rinsing it lightly with water in the shower every day can make a difference.
Make sure to take it off occasionally and give it a thorough cleaning using the methods introduced above.
