Protect Your Gemstones: Ensure gemstones don’t come into contact with each other during storage to prevent any potential damage.

Environmental Care

Combat Humidity: In humid climates, place a small packet of desiccant crystals in your jewelry storage area to prevent tarnishing and keeps your bijoux as good as new.

Avoid Chemicals: Keep your jewelry away from chemicals found in perfumes, hairsprays, makeup, nail polish remover, body oils, suntan lotion, and deodorants. Apply these products before putting on your jewelry to minimize exposure.

Sunlight Exposure: Prevent color fading by avoiding direct sunlight. Gemstones like amethyst, rose quartz, and smokey quartz can lose their vibrant hues over time if exposed to prolonged sunlight.

By following these tips, your Joubijoux jewelry will remain as beautiful and vibrant as the moment it first graced you.

Keeping your bijoux dazzling is simpler than you might think. Regular care will ensure it retains its original luster and brilliance. Here’s how to maintain that radiant shine:

Using a Cleaning Solution

1. Choose a gentle, non-abrasive liquid cleaner that’s safe for metals and most gemstones, as it removes dirt, oils, and tarnish without harming your jewelry.

2. Lightly spray the cleaner onto your bijoux, focusing on the areas that need attention.

3. Use a soft brush to gently scrub away dirt and grime from intricate details and chain links to keep every corner of your piece sparkling.

4. After cleaning, thoroughly dry your jewelry with a soft, clean cloth to avoid any water spots and to bring back its shine.

Using a Polishing Cloth

1. Many stores offer polishing cloths treated with a light polishing compound that safely removes tarnish and restores shine. These cloths are usually two-ply, with one side for cleaning and the other for polishing.

2. Buff your jewelry with the polishing cloth, moving in gentle, circular motions. This will help eliminate any discoloration or marks, bringing out the original brilliance.

By following these steps, your bijoux will continue to sparkle with the elegance and charm you love.

To ensure your bijoux stay as dazzling as the day you first wore them, it’s essential to be mindful of what might damage them:

Water and Chemicals: Keep your jewelry away from water while swimming, showering, or washing your hands. Chlorinated, salty, or soapy water can be harsh on both metals and gemstones. Chlorine, in particular, can cause gold to discolor or suffer damage that’s hard to reverse.

Porous Gemstones: Stones like turquoise and lapis lazuli are especially delicate due to their porous nature. They can absorb water and oils, leading to potential permanent damage or discoloration. To keep these beauties in top shape, keep them dry and avoid extended exposure to liquids.

Environmental Factors: Extreme temperatures and direct sunlight can also be tough on your jewelry. High heat and sunlight can cause fading or damage to certain gemstones.

By keeping these tips in mind and taking simple precautions, you can help ensure your bijoux retain their beauty and vibrancy for years to come.

If gold earrings irritate your ears, causing a rash or itchiness, here’s a simple fix to keep enjoying your favorite pieces. Apply a thin layer of clear nail varnish to the earring post and the back scroll. This creates a protective barrier between the metal and your skin, helping to prevent allergic reactions.

When the varnish starts to wear off, just reapply it to maintain comfort. This little trick can make wearing your cherished earrings a lot more enjoyable!

joubijoux's enamel pieces feature a unique “cold enamel” technique, resulting in a more durable and resilient finish. This method involves applying a glossy, glass-like substance to metal at a lower temperature compared to traditional high-heat enamels.

To keep your bijoux sparkling, polishing isn’t always necessary and should be done thoughtfully. While polishing can effectively reduce scratches on gold surfaces, it does remove a thin layer of metal. To preserve the integrity and beauty of your pieces, we recommend the following:

• White Gold Jewelry: Limit polishing to no more than twice throughout the lifetime of the piece.

• Yellow Gold Jewelry: Polishing can be done up to three times during its lifespan.

Before You Polish:

Always consult with joubijoux before proceeding with polishing. Our expert jewelers will provide guidance on whether your specific piece would benefit from this treatment.
