Jewelry is more than just an accessory — it’s a reflection of your style, your story, and sometimes, your most cherished memories. Whether it’s a sterling silver ring, a gold-plated necklace, or a gemstone bracelet, proper care will keep your jewelry looking beautiful for years to come.
At MaPsyché, we believe that every piece deserves the same love and attention you give to the moments it represents. Here are our essential tips for jewelry care:
1. Avoid Direct Contact with Chemicals
Precious metal jewelry should always be kept away from harsh chemicals. Everyday products like perfume, skincare, sunscreen, or household cleaning agents can cause discoloration, tarnish, or dullness. Apply perfume or lotion first, wait until it’s fully absorbed, and only then put on your jewelry.
2. Remove Before Bathing, Swimming, or Strenuous Exercise
Water, especially chlorinated or salty seawater, can accelerate tarnishing. Similarly, sweat from workouts can cause oxidation or weaken plating. Remove your pieces before showering, swimming, or intense physical activity to preserve their finish and strength.
3. Clean After Wearing
After wearing your jewelry, gently wipe it with a soft, dry cloth to remove oils, sweat, or environmental residue. This small habit can significantly extend the life of your favorite pieces.
4. Store Properly to Prevent Oxidation
Air exposure naturally causes metals like silver to oxidize over time. When you’re not wearing your jewelry, store it in a dry, airtight pouch or box to slow down the process. Keep pieces separate to avoid scratching, especially those with gemstones or delicate finishes.
5. Wear and Storage Habits Matter
The life of your jewelry is closely related to how often you wear it, how you handle it, and how you store it. Treat each piece gently, and it will continue to reward you with its beauty for years to come.
Final Thought
Jewelry is not just an ornament — it’s an investment in self-expression. With mindful care, your MaPsyché pieces will continue to sparkle and tell your story through every chapter of your life.
