How to clean gold jewellery?
Gold jewellery, especially a gold necklace, is prone to tarnishing due to exposure to air, moisture, and oils from your skin. You can clean your gold jewellery using a cleaning solution made from water containing a few drops of mild dish soap.
Soak the jewels in your cleaning solution for 15-20 minutes and gently scrub with a soft cloth, a soft-bristled toothbrush or a clean small makeup brush.
Don't forget to rinse the jewellery thoroughly under running water to remove any soap residue, and pat dry with a soft cloth. Avoid using paper towels or tissues, as these scratch the surface of the gold. Always use a lint-free cloth to clean, and pat dry your gold jewellery.
How to clean sterling silver jewellery?
You can use a mild soap solution in warm water to clean tarnishes off from silver jewellery. Contrary to popular belief, avoid toothpaste. The chemicals in it are too abrasive and could do more damage than good if used to clean your silver jewellery, especially with a brush.
How do you clean jewellery with gemstones or diamonds?
You should be extra careful when cleaning jewellery that has gemstones or diamonds. Scrubbing too hard can dislodge the stones, especially if they are small.
Another great piece of advice is never to clean your jewellery in the sink, especially the tiny pieces. Since you are using water with a few drops of soap, the piece could slip out of your hand and be washed down the drain.
Although it seems like obvious advice or you think it would never happen to you, trust us, it can. Use a bowl instead to leave your jewellery soaking for a bit and avoid losing it.
