How to Clean and Care for Your Silver Necklace

We all love that fresh, shiny silver look — but keeping your favourite necklace glowing takes a little TLC.

Whether it's your everyday piece or something you save for special nights, your silver deserves to shine like you do. Let’s talk easy, no-stress ways to keep it looking flawless, always.

🧪 Why Does Silver Tarnish?

Real talk: even the best silver will tarnish over time — it’s totally normal. Tarnish is just silver reacting with air, water, or stuff like lotions and perfumes. The good news? It’s fixable, and even preventable with the right care.

🌞 Daily Habits = Long-Term Shine

• Put your necklace on last (after perfume, lotion, etc.)
• Take it off before swimming, showering, or sweating it out
• Wipe it down gently with a soft cloth after wearing
• Store it in a dry, sealed bag or anti-tarnish pouch

Basically: treat it like the treasure it is 💍

🧼 Quick DIY Cleaning Tips

✨ **Mild Soap & Warm Water** – Soak for a few minutes, gently rub with your fingers or a soft cloth, then rinse and dry.

✨ **Baking Soda Paste** – Mix baking soda + water into a paste, apply gently with a cloth, rinse and dry completely.

✨ **Silver Polishing Cloth** – Easy and mess-free! Just rub and glow.

**Avoid:** harsh chemicals, toothpaste, paper towels (they scratch!), or over-scrubbing.

💎 When to Go Pro

If your necklace has gemstones, heavy tarnish, or you're just not sure how to handle it — let a jeweller take care of it. Sometimes professional TLC is the best kind of self-care (for you *and* your silver).

💌 Silver = Forever (If You Treat It Right)

Caring for your silver isn’t a chore — it’s part of the love story. A few small habits and the occasional clean can keep your necklace glowing for years.

So shine on, silver queen. ✨
