How To Keep Your Handmade Swarovski Necklace Dazzling And Beautiful For Years

By Stacey Burt


Fashion accessories boasting of eye-catching crystals require sufficient caring to make them stay beautiful for as long as possible. The handmade Swarovski necklace in your possession is prone to damage due to the fact that it came into being using customary jewelry-making methods. The item can make you look and feel fabulous for several years to come if you shield it from unnecessary damage.

A very important thing to bear in mind is your beautiful personal ornament should be put around your neck after you are through with the application of cosmetic products. The harsh ingredients of perfumes, colognes, deodorants, hairspray and lotion can ruin both the metal plating and the sheen of the crystals. It is safe to wear your lovely necklaces as soon as you are done applying some essentials.

Your glittery personal ornament should be worn after you are completely dressed. This is done to save the crystals from accidentally knocking or scraping against buttons, zippers and other metal parts your clothes may have. Likewise, your fashion accessory for the neck should be taken off before you undress to save the crystals' surface from potentially ending up ruined.

Refrain from throwing away the padded boxes of Swarovski personal ornaments each time you shop for one. The necklace you own can be kept away from harm much better if it's placed in its original packaging when not being used. Placing it in a velvet pouch or any other pouch out of soft fabric helps protect your beautiful fashion accessory from being scratched or damaged when you're traveling.

Refrain from leaving the personal ornament under the sun or right next to an appliance that gives off heat. Place it in a cool and dry area especially if it comes with silver parts. Because silver is prone to tarnishing due to moisture, it's a good idea to keep the necklace in an airtight container. If you don't own such, simply add anti-tarnish paper into the jewelry box to slow down the tarnishing process.

Your prized personal ornament is at its best if it's sparkling. Refrain from polishing the crystals and metal parts with jewelry or window cleaner. More often than not, the job can be completed with the help of a soft cotton cloth. A microfiber cloth also does a marvelous job. Baby wipes may be used in case your fashion accessory is marred by dirt and grime that you find hard to remove.

Polishing the necklace once in a while is certainly a good idea. This task should also be done right after wearing the fashion accessory and just before you put it back in its designated storage space. There are also certain things that you may do to keep the gleam intact. For instance, the sparkling item should be taken off before gardening, cleaning the house, bathing, swimming or exercising.

Although it's true that Swarovski crystals are made of top-notch glass, they should not be assumed as indestructible. Hard contact against surfaces may cause them to chip, break or shatter. Giving your treasured item the kind of love and care it requires will let you enjoy it for a very long time, enabling you to appear dazzling and stylish whenever it is placed around the neck.
