Tips for Keeping Your Jewelry Looking Its Best
We want your Allie + Bess pieces to stay beautiful for as long as possible! Proper care can help preserve the color, shine, and finish of your jewelry.
FIRST: Check Your Product Details
Before wearing your new piece, check the product description for its care instructions.
If your piece is labeled “waterproof,” you’re good to go! These pieces are designed to withstand everyday exposure to water, so feel free to wear them rain or shine.
If your piece is not labeled “waterproof,” please follow the care instructions below.
For Non-Waterproof Jewelry
-
Keep away from water. Remove your jewelry before showering, bathing, swimming, or exercising.
-
Avoid chemicals and products. Water, body oils, perspiration, cosmetics, lotions, perfumes, hairspray, and cleaning products can cause discoloration, tarnishing, or dull the finish over time.
-
Put jewelry on last. Apply makeup, lotion, perfume, and hairspray before putting on your jewelry.
-
Remove before bed. Sleeping in your jewelry can cause unnecessary friction, pulling, and wear.
-
Gently clean after wearing. Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe your jewelry after each wear to remove oils and buildup.
-
Store properly. When you’re not wearing your jewelry, keep each piece in an airtight plastic bag or jewelry pouch. This helps protect it from moisture, tarnishing, and scratching.
-
Give your jewelry a break. Even with proper care, plated metals naturally change over time with regular wear and exposure to the elements.
