✨ Everyday Care Essentials

Scintiller jewellery is built for real life — showers, workouts, and everything in between. That said, a little routine care goes a long way in keeping your pieces looking their best.

💡 Golden rule: Put jewellery on last and take it off first. This single habit protects your pieces from perfume, lotions, and makeup — the most common causes of premature dullness.

Wipe each piece with a soft, lint-free cloth after wearing to remove oils and residue.
Avoid abrasive cloths or scrubbing pads — they can scratch the surface and strip plating.
Remove jewellery before swimming in chlorinated pools, hot tubs, or the sea — these environments accelerate plating wear.
Never expose your jewellery to household cleaning products, bleach, or acetone.

📦 Storing Your Jewellery

Proper storage prevents scratches, tangling, and tarnish — and keeps your pieces ready to wear whenever you reach for them.

Store each piece separately in the included pouch or a soft-lined jewellery box.
Keep jewellery away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and high humidity — a drawer or closed box is ideal.
For chains, store flat or loosely coiled. Never leave chains tangled together.
For rings, a tray with individual slots prevents scratching between pieces.
Avoid storing jewellery in the bathroom, where steam and humidity fluctuate daily.

💎 Material-Specific Guidance

Different materials have different needs. Expand each section below for targeted advice.

Clean with warm water.
Dry completely before storing — never store damp, as moisture can dull the finish.
Avoid abrasive cloths that can strip the plating over time.
Avoid contact with chlorine bleach, acids, and ammonia-based cleaners.

Clean with a damp soft cloth or a very gentle brush to remove oil and residue.
Avoid ultrasonic cleaners for pieces with glued or prong-set stones.
Protect gemstones from prolonged UV exposure, which can cause colour fading over time.
Hard stones like CZ can scratch softer stones — store separately.

Wipe pearls with a damp soft cloth after each wear to remove oils and perspiration.
Never soak pearls in water or use ultrasonic cleaners — they damage the nacre.
Apply perfume and cosmetics before wearing pearl jewellery — pearls are last on, first off.
Pearls are porous — keep them away from hairspray, chlorine, and acids.

⏳ Making It Last

Our jewellery is designed for everyday wear, but a few simple habits can significantly extend the life of your pieces:

Rotate your pieces rather than wearing the same ones every single day.
Remove rings before heavy manual work — gardening, gym, moving furniture.
Avoid exposing jewellery to extreme temperatures (saunas, very hot showers).
Pat dry immediately if pieces get wet, rather than letting them air-dry on the skin.

🛡️ 3-Month Warranty: Every Scintiller piece is backed by our manufacturing warranty. If something goes wrong due to craftsmanship — not wear and tear — we'll repair or replace it free. See our Warranty page for full details.
