At Maria Bello Jewels, we understand that your jewelry isn't just an accessory; it's a cherished part of your life. Whether you're flaunting your favorite silver necklace, showcasing your elegant gold-plated bracelet, or adding a touch of glamour with your stainless steel gold-plated earrings, proper care is essential to keep them looking stunning for years to come.

Why Regular Cleaning is Important

Daily wear exposes your jewelry to various elements like oils, lotions, sweat, and dust, which can cause them to lose their luster over time. Cleaning your jewelry at home not only restores their shine but also helps prevent tarnishing and maintain their beauty. Here's how to care for each type:

Cleaning Silver & Stainless Steel Jewelry:

Materials you'll need:

• Mild dish soap
• Warm water
• Soft-bristle toothbrush or a soft cloth
• Silver polishing cloth (optional)

Steps:

a. Fill a bowl with warm water and add a few drops of mild dish soap.

b. Soak your silver jewelry in the soapy water for about 5-10 minutes to loosen dirt and oils.

c. Gently scrub the jewelry with a soft-bristle toothbrush or a soft cloth. Make sure to reach all the crevices.

d. Rinse the jewelry under lukewarm water to remove any soap residue.

e. Pat dry with a clean, soft cloth or allow them to air dry.

f. Optionally, use a silver polishing cloth to give your pieces an extra shine.

General Tips:

• Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive materials, or ultrasonic cleaners, as they can damage your jewelry.
• Store your jewelry in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture when not in use.
• Put your jewelry on after applying makeup, lotions, and perfumes to prevent chemical reactions.

By following these simple cleaning methods, you can ensure that your silver, gold-plated, and stainless steel gold-plated jewelry continues to dazzle and elevate your style for years to come. Remember, a little TLC goes a long way in preserving the beauty of your precious pieces from Maria Bello Jewels.
