Caring for your jewelry
Care Guide
To keep your Alis Jewelry pieces shining
With a few simple everyday habits, your jewelry will keep its shine and beauty for a long time. Here are our tips by type of jewelry.
Good daily habits
- Put your jewelry on last, after makeup, perfume, cream, and hairspray.
- Take it off before sleeping, cleaning, exercising, or doing the dishes.
- Avoid contact with cosmetics and household products (perfume, bleach, detergents).
- Wipe with a soft cloth after each wear to remove sweat and dust.
Gold-plated jewelry
Gold plating is more delicate: it's a thin layer of gold that deserves gentle care.
- Remove it before any contact with water (shower, pool, sea).
- To restore shine: warm water + mild soap, then dry with a microfiber cloth.
- Never rub with an abrasive material that would scratch the plating.
Stainless steel jewelry
Stainless steel is sturdy, hypoallergenic, and rust-free — it's the easiest to live with.
- It can be worn in water, but rinse it with clean water after the sea or pool (salt, chlorine, limescale).
- Cleaning: soft cloth, or warm water with mild soap. Dry thoroughly.
- To make it shine: gently polish with a chamois cloth in small circular motions.
Jewelry set with stones (zircon)
Stones need more delicate care, especially if they're glued in place.
Tip: avoid fully soaking a piece with a glued-in stone. Instead, clean it locally with a cotton swab lightly dampened with soapy water, then dry gently.
Storage
- Store each piece in its pouch or box, away from moisture and sunlight.
- For necklaces and bracelets, close the clasp to avoid tangles.
- Avoid piling them up: friction can scratch the surfaces.
