The Golden Rule: "Last one touched"

Consider your jewelry as the finishing touch to your preparation.

  • Put them on AFTER: Makeup, hairspray, and perfume. Alcohol and chemicals can tarnish the metal and pearls.
  • Wait 2 minutes: Allow your cream or perfume to dry before closing your necklace.

Stainless Steel vs. Handmade Creations: The Difference

At Lidiar Collection, we have two types of treasures. Learn to distinguish them so you can take better care of them:

  • Stainless Steel (The "All-Terrain" Team) The advantage: It's robust, rust-resistant, and withstands fresh water. Can you shower with it? Yes, occasionally. However, avoid salt water (sea) or chlorinated water (swimming pool) which can damage the gold plating over time. Cleaning: A little warm water, mild soap, and a dry cloth are all you need to restore its shine.
  • Handmade & Brass Creations (The "Precious" Team) The advantage: Unique pieces, often textured or featuring natural stones. Can you shower with them on? No. To preserve the handcrafted assembly and delicate gilding, you must remove them before showering, playing sports, or swimming. Cleaning: Use only a soft, dry cloth (like a chamois) to gently polish them. No water!

The 3 Sworn Enemies of Your Jewelry

To prolong the lifespan of your costume jewelry:

  1. Sports (Sweat & Impact): The acidity of perspiration attacks metals. Remove your jewelry before your gym or yoga session.
  2. Sleep: Sleeping with your jewelry can deform it, break delicate chains, or even injure you. Let them rest too!
  3. Humidity (Bathroom): Do not store your jewelry on the edge of the sink. The constant humidity of the bathroom accelerates natural oxidation.

The Ideal Storage Solution (The Secret to Longevity)

Don't throw your jewelry loose in a drawer! They might scratch each other or get tangled.

  • Store each piece individually in its Lidiar pouch or original case.
  • Close the clasps on the necklaces to avoid knots.
