Here's a list of hints and tips on how to care for your Margot & Mila jewellery, so it will look as lovely as the day you received it. 

​

Wearing your jewellery

​

  • Skin and hair products can sometimes react with jewellery causing it to tarnish or corrode. We would advise removing all jewellery before applying cosmetics or perfume.

  • We would advise removing jewellery before exercising, cleaning or gardening as this will ensure your jewellery is not accidentally damaged or tarnished by perspiration.

  • We recommend removing jewellery before entering a pool, shower, or the sea as chlorine can cause tarnishing and water exposure in general can damage plating.

​

Storing your jewellery

​

  • Do not store jewellery on the windowsill or in the bathroom as damp and hot conditions could cause the jewellery to tarnish.

  • storing your jewellery in a zip lock bag as exposure to the air and environment can cause your jewellery to tarnish over time. Zip lock bags are a cheap way to keep your jewellery looking newer for longer. 

​

Cleaning your jewellery 

​

  • We would recommend cleaning your jewellery from time to time to keep it looking at its best.

  • To clean your jewellery rub the piece gently with a soft lint-free cloth.

  • To brighten up your silver pieces (and remove any tarnishing) we recommend using a silver dip solution. We use the ones made by Haggerty. Simply follow the instructions and ensure you rinse your item thoroughly in warm water afterwards.  

  • Take extra care when cleaning jewellery with gemstones and pearls and if unsure, do ask your local jeweller or contact us for further assistance.

  • Gold plating on items may slightly fade over time depending on how often they are worn and how they are looked after.  We are happy to re-plate any of your Margot & Mila items, please contact info@margotandmila.com for a quote.
