Keeping Your Handmade Swarovski Necklace Sparkling And Beautiful For A Long Time

By Stacey Burt


Fashion accessories consisting of crystals need a lot of love and care to make them remain eye-catching and highly wearable for many years. The handmade Swarovski necklace that you proudly own is very delicate because it is made using traditional jewelry-making techniques. By protecting it from harm and keeping the crystals sparkling, the item can make you look and feel beautiful constantly.

A very important thing to bear in mind is your beautiful personal ornament should be put around your neck after you are through with the application of cosmetic products. The harsh ingredients of perfumes, colognes, deodorants, hairspray and lotion can ruin both the metal plating and the sheen of the crystals. It is safe to wear your lovely necklaces as soon as you are done applying some essentials.

You should also put it only after you have worn your clothes. This is done to save the lustrous surface of the individual crystals from bumping or scratching against zippers, buttons, pins and other metal parts. Likewise, you should remember to remove you fashion accessory first before you begin to undress to make sure that the crystals are kept out of harm's way.

Save the padded boxes that Swarovski fashion accessories normally come with. The necklace you proudly own can be of service for a long period of time if it's placed in its original container when not being used. You may also choose to stash the item in a pouch out of velvet or any other soft fabric when traveling in order to prevent it from damage, or ending up scratched or dented.

Do not leave your beautiful possession under the sun or right next to a source of heat such as a kitchen appliance. If it's something that has silver components, make sure that you store it in a place that's both dry and cool. Tarnishing is something that is caused by excessive moisture. It's a good idea to keep a necklace with silver parts in an airtight container, or just place a strip of anti-tarnish paper in your chosen jewelry storage space.

The personal ornament can be a complete head-turner if it's gleaming. Don't get too excited and attempt to clean the crystals with glass cleaner or jewelry polishing solution. What you should do instead is grab a piece of cotton or microfiber cloth to bring back the lost gleam of the crystals. When facing stubborn dirt and grime, you may use baby wipes on the surface to eliminate the problem.

Polishing the necklace once in a while is certainly a good idea. This task should also be done right after wearing the fashion accessory and just before you put it back in its designated storage space. There are also certain things that you may do to keep the gleam intact. For instance, the sparkling item should be taken off before gardening, cleaning the house, bathing, swimming or exercising.

Never assume that Swarovski crystals are indestructible just because they are crafted from high quality glass. It's likely for them to shatter, crack or chip during sharp blows. If you want your pricey and stunning possession to make you look beautiful and elegant for years, remember to give it the kind of loving it requires from its owner.
