How to Care for Costume Jewelry

With the cost of today’s fashion jewelry, most women want to get the most bang for their buck. That includes making certain that the jewelry item lasts as long as possible. The way to ensure that is to take proper care of each fashion jewelry item. Here are some general tips on how to care for fashion jewelry.

  • Avoid moisture like water and perfumes.
  • Look for bottles or jars of jewelry cleaners that specifically say they are safe for costume jewelry.
  • Read labels to be sure that the product doesn’t contain ammonia, vinegar, acid or alcohol. These substances can be too harsh for delicate materials. If your piece contains pearls or stones, be sure that the cleaner indicates that it will not harm them.
  • Buy a small, extra-soft toothbrush that you can use to clean your jewelry.
  • Keep a very soft cloth that can also be used to wipe your pieces and polish them to a shine.
  • Always dry your jewelry after washing, because moisture can damage surfaces and cause them to rust or become pitted.
  • Store your costume jewelry separately in soft pouches or boxes so the pieces don’t scratch each other.
  • Keep your jewelry away from dust, which can be damaging to the stones.
