How to care for your stainless steel jewelry so that it lasts a long time

Do you have stainless steel jewelry and are you worried about it losing its beauty? Taking good care of it so that it lasts a long time is easier than it may seem.

Stainless steel jewelry is highly resistant to wear and corrosion, not to mention that it is made of a hypoallergenic and very attractive material. Given its many virtues, it is not surprising that it is the preferred choice for many.

Here are some tips and recommendations on what to do (and what not to do) to keep your jewelry in perfect condition.

Tips for caring for your stainless steel jewelry

  • You can shower with them without any problems, but make sure to dry them properly afterwards. It is also preferable to use a neutral shower gel without aggressive chemicals.
  • If you are a regular at the pool or have the beach nearby, it is best to take them off. Chlorine and salt can affect the colour of the pieces. Also, in the case of rings , it is almost always advisable to remove them. Water causes the size of the fingers to decrease. Avoid unpleasant surprises due to possible loss.
  • It is not recommended that you apply products such as colognes, creams, lotions, etc. on them. They usually include substances that accelerate the discoloration of the piece.
  • Try to store each piece of jewelry in an individual space so that they don't scratch each other. A good jewelry organizer can be very helpful.

Although stainless steel jewelry is quite resistant to the passage of time, it never hurts to treat it with some care.

To clean them, you only need a microfibre cloth. It is advisable to do this every time you take them off. Keep in mind that the accumulation of sweat, dust and other residues ends up darkening the surface.

Do you want to clean them more thoroughly?

It's very simple. Mix a little warm water and pH-neutral liquid soap in a bowl and soak the jewelry in it. Leave it for about 5 minutes and scrub it with a toothbrush to remove the most stubborn dirt.

The bristles should be soft so as not to damage the surface. If they are not very dirty, you can replace the brush with a soft cloth. Dry the parts with a microfibre cloth and you're done!

Try not to wear necklaces or earrings to the gym. Not only to prevent the pieces from being hit and broken, but also for your own safety, it is recommended that you go without accessories.

When you go to sleep, take off any earrings or necklaces that are too big. Besides being uncomfortable, you may move around while sleeping and accidentally deform them.

We hope that these tips will be helpful to you and that you can wear them for many years to come.
