JEWELLERY CARE

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.
