How to Care for My Stainless Steel Jewelry?

At Margsa , we are committed to offering you a selection of stainless steel jewelry that combines style and durability. Stainless steel is a highly prized material for its resistance to oxidation and corrosion, perfect for everyday wear. However, even the best jewelry needs a little attention to keep its shine.

Discover our tips for maintaining your stainless steel jewelry and preserving it so that it remains as beautiful as when you bought it.

1. Regular cleaning of your stainless steel jewelry

To keep your jewelry looking its best, it's essential to clean it regularly. Here's how to do it:

• Materials needed: A bowl of warm water, mild soap (such as Marseille soap), and a soft microfiber cloth.
• Steps to follow:
  1. Fill a bowl with warm water and a little mild soap.
  2. Let your jewelry soak in the solution for a few minutes.
  3. Clean gently with a soft cloth, paying particular attention to encrusted areas.
  4. Rinse with clean water and dry your jewelry carefully with a clean cloth.

Tip: Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the surface of your jewelry.

2. Protect your jewelry from chemicals

Even though stainless steel is strong, it's always best to protect it from chemicals that could dull its shine. Here are our recommendations:

• Perfumes and cosmetics: Apply your beauty products before putting on your jewelry to avoid residue.
• Avoid chlorinated and salt water: Chlorine from swimming pools and salt water from the sea can alter the appearance of your stainless steel jewelry over the long term.

3. Occasional polishing to maintain shine

The stainless steel jewelry we've selected is designed to be durable, but regular polishing can help keep it looking shiny. Use a jewelry polishing cloth that you can easily find in stores or online. This simple step will remove minor scratches and bring back the shine to your pieces.

Caution: Never use abrasive tools such as steel wool which could scratch your jewelry.

4. Store your jewelry properly

Proper storage of stainless steel jewelry is crucial to prevent it from getting scratched or damaged:

• Store them individually in fabric pouches to avoid friction between the pieces.
• If you have several pieces of jewelry, a box with separate compartments is ideal to protect them from shocks.

5. Remove your jewelry during certain activities, including before sleeping

Even though our selected stainless steel jewelry is made to be worn every day, it is advisable to remove it in certain situations:

• During sports or manual activities: This helps avoid shocks or scratches that could damage your jewelry.
• In the shower or bath: Although stainless steel is water-resistant, personal care products such as shampoo can leave residue that dulls its shine.
• Before sleeping: Removing your jewelry before sleeping prevents friction against sheets and pillows, which could scratch or bend your pieces, and also ensures you more comfort during the night.
