FAQ
1. Perfume, hairspray or makeup gets on to the pearls?
- If perfume, hairspray, or makeup gets on a pearl, it can cause damage to the pearl's surface. Pearls are porous, which means that they can absorb substances that come into contact with them. Perfume, hairspray, and makeup often contain chemicals that can react with the pearl's surface, causing it to become dull, discoloured, or even pitted.
- If you get perfume, hairspray, or makeup on your pearls, clean them using a gentle cleaning method, such as wiping them with a soft cloth dampened with water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
2. What about the long-term maintenance of pearls?
- Store your pearls carefully: Store your pearls in a jewellery box or bag to protect them from scratches and other damage. Keep them away from other jewellery, which can scratch their surface.
- Keep your pearls away from chemicals: Pearls are sensitive to chemicals such as perfume, hairspray, and makeup, so avoid spraying these products directly onto your pearls. Put on your pearls last and take them off first.
3. Things that you should do for the daily maintenance of pearls?
- Wipe your pearls with a soft, damp cloth to remove any dirt, oils, or perspiration that may have accumulated.
- Avoid storing your pearls under direct sunlight or high temperatures, as this can cause them to become discoloured.
- Avoid wearing your pearls while engaging in activities that may cause them to become scratched or damaged.
- Store your pearls in a jewellery box sperate from other jewelleries to protect them from scratches and other damage.
- Wear your pearls: Although pearls require care, they are still meant to be worn. Regular wear can help to prevent your pearls from becoming too dry or brittle.
- Wipe the pearls gently with a soft, damp cloth to remove any excess perfume, hairspray, or makeup.
