Here are the steps involved in cleaning gemstone jewellery to recharge their sheen for every new era of your fashion evolution: Step 1: Fix Up the Bath for Your Gem Jewellery Fill a small bowl with lukewarm water. Proceed to add a few drops of mild dish soap or baby shampoo. Mix it up, and the jewellery bath shall be ready. Step 2: Soak Your Jewellery Place your gemstone jewellery in the prepared solution. Let them soak in it for at least 10–15 minutes so the loosened dirt and oils are targeted.

While cleaning is an afterthought, caring for your gemstone jewellery is crucial to lessen the frequency of cleaning required. Proper care efforts include avoiding harsh chemicals, mindfully wiping post-wear and more. Here are some care tips you can use to prolong the lifespan of your gemstone jewellery's shine: 1. Perfume Application Apply your perfumes, colognes, or hairsprays before putting on your gemstone jewellery for the day. Chemicals contained in such products can reduce the gem's brilliance and even be destructive to certain gems like pearls. They react violently to acid as well as alcohol. In fact, it’s recommended that you put on your perfumes and colognes as far from the gemstones as possible. 2. Put Pearl Safety First Keep the pearls from directly lying on the skin, as perspiration may damage them. Instead, go for trendy and minimalist jewellery where such gems are enclosed in durable gold settings.
