How to Keep Your Nat Jewels Shining Forever
Share
At Nat Jewels, we believe jewelry is meant to be worn, lived in, and loved. Whether you’ve chosen our durable, waterproof stainless-steel essentials or our elegant 925 sterling silver and platinum-plated pieces, your jewelry is designed to be a high-quality companion for your daily life.
While all our pieces are hypoallergenic and selected for longevity, jewelry is a finish that interacts with the world around you. To keep that "brand-new" sparkle for years to come, here is how you can care for your collection.
A Note on Our Materials
We curate our collection to offer the best of both worlds. Our titanium and stainless-steel pieces are your "everyday essentials"—they are waterproof, anti-tarnish, and incredibly durable. For our pieces crafted in 925 sterling silver and finished with platinum plating, we offer a touch of classic, premium luxury. While everything we create is built to last, each metal has its own "personality" and benefits from a little love to stay at its brightest.
The "Last On, First Off" Rule
The best way to maintain your jewelry's finish is to protect it from beauty products. Chemicals in perfumes, lotions, and hairspray can create a film on your jewelry over time.
The Habit: Make your jewelry the very last thing you put on before leaving the house and the first thing you take off when you get home.
Gentle Cleaning Tips
You don’t need harsh chemicals to keep your pieces looking pristine.
For Everyday Maintenance: A quick wipe with a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth is all you need to remove oils or dust after a long day.
For a Refresh: If a piece needs a deeper clean, use a small bowl of lukewarm water with a tiny drop of mild dish soap. Gently clean with a soft-bristled brush (like a baby toothbrush), rinse with clear water, and pat completely dry with a soft cloth. Never let your jewelry air-dry while damp.
Smart Storage
Humidity is the enemy of fine jewelry, so the bathroom is usually the worst place to keep your collection.
The Tip: Store your pieces in a cool, dry place—ideally in the jewelry box or pouch they arrived in. Keeping pieces individually stored helps prevent scratches and keeps them tangle-free.
When to Take It Off
While our stainless steel and titanium pieces are designed for durability, we recommend removing your jewelry before swimming in chlorinated pools or engaging in high-intensity workouts where heavy perspiration is involved. This simple step ensures your jewelry stays as radiant as the day you first opened the box.
