How to Care for Stainless Steel & Gold-Plated Jewelry

Stainless steel and gold-plated jewelry are loved for their shine, durability, and everyday elegance. With just a few simple care tips, you can keep your favorite pieces sparkling like new for years to come.

1. Keep It Dry & Clean

Always remove your jewelry before swimming, showering, or exercising. Moisture and sweat can wear down plating over time. Wipe your pieces with a soft, dry cloth after each wear to remove oils and dirt.

2. Store Separately

Store your jewelry in a dry, clean jewelry box or soft pouch. Avoid tangling by laying necklaces flat or hanging them. Keep gold-plated pieces away from other metals to prevent scratches.

3. Wear with Care

Apply perfumes, lotions, and hairspray before putting on your jewelry. This helps protect the plating. Avoid wearing jewelry while doing housework or using harsh chemicals.
