Every crystal is a unique gift from nature. With proper care, your crystal jewelry and natural stone pieces can remain beautiful for years to come. This guide will help you care for your crystals and the materials used in our jewelry so you can enjoy them for many years.
Natural Crystal Products
Every crystal and natural stone is one of a kind. Variations in color, pattern, transparency, inclusions, shape, and texture are natural characteristics that make each piece beautifully unique.
While many crystals are durable, some are naturally softer or more delicate than others. To help prevent chips or cracks, avoid dropping your crystals or striking them against hard surfaces.
Some crystals are sensitive to prolonged exposure to water, salt, direct sunlight, or sudden temperature changes. If you're unsure how to care for a specific stone, we recommend researching its individual properties before cleaning or displaying it outdoors.
Crystal Necklaces, Pendants & Bracelets
Our crystal jewelry pairs genuine natural stones with carefully selected stainless steel, S925 sterling silver, or alloy components, depending on the design.
To help keep your jewelry looking its best:
- Remove jewelry before showering, swimming, exercising, or sleeping.
- Avoid contact with perfumes, lotions, hairspray, sunscreen, and household cleaners.
- Put jewelry on after applying cosmetics or fragrances.
- After wearing, gently wipe your jewelry with a soft microfiber or polishing cloth to remove oils and moisture.
- Handle crystal pendants with care, as natural stones may chip or crack if dropped onto hard surfaces.
Stainless Steel Jewelry
Stainless steel is durable, highly resistant to rust and tarnishing, and requires very little maintenance, making it an excellent choice for everyday wear.
Clean with a soft cloth or mild soap and water when needed, then dry thoroughly. Keeping your jewelry clean and dry will help maintain its shine.
S925 Sterling Silver Jewelry
S925 sterling silver naturally develops a soft patina over time due to exposure to air, humidity, and everyday wear. This is completely normal and is not considered a defect.
To restore its shine, gently polish your jewelry with a silver polishing cloth. When not in use, store sterling silver pieces in a dry, airtight jewelry pouch or container to help slow the natural tarnishing process.
Alloy Jewelry
Some of our jewelry features alloy components. With proper care, these pieces can remain beautiful for a long time.
To help preserve their finish, avoid prolonged exposure to moisture, perfumes, lotions, sweat, and household chemicals. Store alloy jewelry in a dry place and avoid rubbing it against other jewelry to minimize scratches and wear.
Storage Tips
- Store jewelry and crystals in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Keep jewelry in individual pouches or compartments to help prevent scratches.
- Avoid storing jewelry in humid environments, such as bathrooms.
- Display crystal towers, spheres, carvings, and specimens on stable surfaces away from edges where they could be accidentally knocked over.
Energy Cleansing (Optional)
Many people enjoy energetically cleansing their crystals using methods such as moonlight, sound, smoke cleansing, or selenite. If you choose to cleanse your crystals this way, we recommend researching the specific needs of your stone, as some crystals should not be exposed to water, salt, or prolonged sunlight.
Whether you treasure your crystals for their natural beauty, personal meaning, or spiritual practice, we hope they bring you joy for years to come. Thank you for letting LUVLIGHTMEOW be a small part of your journey. 💛
