To care for personalized jewelry, put it on after perfume, lotion and sunscreen, and take it off before showering, swimming, working out or sleeping. Clean it gently with a soft cloth and lukewarm water, avoid harsh chemicals, keep it stored closed away from air, and keep photo and leather pieces dry.
Your personalized jewelry carries a name, a photo, or a message that means the world to you. Here is how to keep it beautiful for as long as the memory.
Gold Finish Jewelry Care
- Put it on last. Apply perfume, lotion, and sunscreen first, let everything dry, then put on your jewelry.
- Take it off first. Remove it before showering, swimming, working out, or sleeping.
- Store it closed. Air exposure causes oxidation, so a closed, dry spot extends its life significantly.
- Clean gently. Soft cloth and lukewarm water. No harsh chemicals, no toothpaste, no jewelry cleaner.
Photo Projection Jewelry Care
The nano-lens inside your photo necklace or photo bracelet is sealed and protected. Still, avoid submerging it, since the seal can weaken over time, and never press or scratch the lens. If the projection becomes less clear, wipe the lens gently with a soft dry cloth.
Silver Finish Care
A silver finish can dull naturally over time. It is not a defect, it is chemistry. A polishing cloth restores the shine in seconds. Store it in an airtight bag, and wear it often: the oils in your skin help prevent dulling.
Leather Jewelry Care
Our leather bracelets develop a natural patina over time, a feature, not a flaw. Keep them dry, since leather absorbs water and can warp, apply a little leather conditioner every few months, and store them flat, not bent.
Care at a Glance
| Type | Avoid | Clean with |
|---|---|---|
| Gold finish | Water, perfume, harsh chemicals | Soft cloth and lukewarm water |

| Silver finish | Storing in open air | Polishing cloth |
| Leather | Water, bending | Leather conditioner |
Universal Rules
Rotate your pieces. Daily wear on one piece concentrates friction, so alternate. Treat stains immediately. Blot with cold water, never rub. Remove before household cleaning. Bleach, ammonia, and hand sanitizer are enemies of all jewelry.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you shower with gold finish jewelry?
No. Water, soap, and steam accelerate wear on the gold finish. Always take your gold finish pieces off before showering, swimming, or exercising, and put them back on once your skin is dry.
How do you clean a photo projection necklace?
Wipe the pendant gently with a soft dry cloth, especially the lens area if the projection looks less clear. Avoid submerging it in water, since the seal can weaken over time, and never press the lens.
How do you restore the shine on silver finish jewelry?
A polishing cloth restores the shine in seconds, because dulling is natural chemistry, not a defect. Between cleanings, store the piece in an airtight bag and wear it often, since skin oils help prevent dulling.
