How to Care for Your Sparklecandy Jewellery

We want to make sure that each and every one of our customers has a long and fruitful relationship with their Sparklecandy jewellery – which means that it's really important to bear a few of these points in mind.

First things first, how you store your jewellery is super important. All Sparklecandy products come wrapped in custom made packaging. This packaging is specially designed to keep your jewellery safe and sound – as well as to look pretty enough to be kept on your dressing table! In order to keep your jewellery at it's best, keep it wrapped up safe in the original box or pouch.

We also recommend that you don't get your jewellery wet. That means removing it before showering, bathing, swimming or even just doing the washing up! We suggest that you do this as moisture can dull jewellery and loosen stones and attachments. If you do need to wash your jewellery, please do so with a damp cloth – DON'T completely submerge it in water or even a cleaning solution.

Don't let your jewellery be exposed to sunlight or extreme heat for large periods of time. Sunlight, especially, can cause many pieces to fade. This is especially true of acrylic jewellery, so store those Tatty Devine pieces away from the window if you want them to keep their original vibrancy!

Be careful about spraying perfume or hairspray when wearing jewellery. The best way to make sure your jewellery isn't damaged by this is to put it on AFTER you've spritzed yourself. This protects it from the alcohols in the products, and means that it won't tarnish or crack your jewellery.

Finally, be sensible with your jewellery. We suggest that you steer clear of wearing it at events where it may get knocked or crushed – as many of our pieces are fragile and need a bit of tender care.

Follow these simple tips and you can be sure that your Sparklecandy jewellery will be adorning your outfits for years to come! See our full range of jewellery at www.sparklecandy.co.uk.
