Keeping Your AuraGem Sparkling: Simple Care Tips for Moissanite Jewelry
At AuraGems, we want your moissanite jewelry to radiate brilliance as brightly as the moments it celebrates. Here's a simple guide to caring for your treasured pieces at home:
Give Your Ring a Break:
Your dazzling moissanite deserves a break from everyday wear and tear. Consider removing your ring during these activities:
- Active Adventures: Whether you're hitting the gym or playing a sport, intense activities can put stress on the setting or scratch the gemstone.
- Household Heroics: Harsh chemicals in cleaning products can dull the sparkle of your moissanite. Take it off while conquering those dirty dishes or wielding powerful cleaners.
- Beauty Rituals: Lotions, sunscreen, and perfumes can leave a film on your moissanite, reducing its brilliance. Remove your ring before indulging in your beauty routine.
- Taking a Dip: While chlorine in pools and salt water won't damage moissanite itself, it can leave a film that dulls its shine. Always remove your AuraGem jewelry before swimming or bathing.
- Shower Power: Soap scum can build up on your jewelry in the shower, diminishing its brilliance. Take off your AuraGem pieces before showering or bathing.
Safekeeping Your Sparkler:
When your ring takes a break, make sure it has a safe haven. Designate a special spot, like a jewelry box or a soft dish, to prevent loss and scratches.
Maintaining the Magic:
For long-lasting brilliance, consider a professional cleaning by a jeweler every 6 months. They can ensure the prongs holding the gemstone are secure, preventing any potential mishaps.
Simple Home Cleaning (Optional):
In between professional cleanings, you can gently clean your moissanite jewelry at home:
- Gather Your Supplies: Fill a bowl with warm water and add a few drops of mild, phosphate-free dish soap. Grab a soft-bristled brush (like a baby toothbrush).
- Gentle Cleansing: Dip the brush and gently clean your ring, paying close attention to the intricate details around the gemstone.
- Sparkling Rinse: Rinse your ring thoroughly under clean, lukewarm running water.
- Pat Me Dry: Use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently pat your ring dry. Avoid paper towels or tissues, which can scratch the surface.
By following these simple tips, your AuraGem moissanite jewelry will continue to radiate brilliance for years to come, becoming cherished heirlooms.
