Jewellery care requires regular effort as tarnish and the wearing away of plating is caused by very common elements: air (oxidation), moisture (sweat, water) and chemicals (hairspray, perfume, lotions, etc.).
Here are the easiest steps to follow:
Put jewellery on after applying makeup, hairspray, perfume, and lotion. Don't wear your jewellery to the salon or spa, into the bath or shower (chlorine, soap film) or lake (pollutants), or while exercising or spending time in high heat or humidity.
