How To Care For Your Engagement Ring

When a woman gets engaged, all she can do is stare at her engagement ring - it's so sparkly, so brilliant!  But its beauty can dull without proper care.  Here are some simple tips to make sure your engagement ring stays dazzling forever.

Do's:

• Have your ring cleaned and inspected on a regular basis.  We'll keep it sparkling and also check for any damage.
• When cleaning it on your own, use jewelry cleaner or warm soapy water and a soft bristled toothbrush.  Polish with a soft cloth and dry well - water can leave a residue.
• If your ring is white gold, have it refinished once a year to keep the bright white finish.
• When not wearing your ring, always store it in a fabric lined jewelry box with individual compartments or use individual pouches to prevent scratching against other jewelry.

Don'ts:

• Don't wear your engagement ring when using household chemicals (like bleach) or other cleaners.
• Don't use hairspray, lotions, or other beauty products while wearing your ring.  Your ring should be the last thing on in the morning and the first thing off at night.
• Don't wear your ring while swimming.  Chlorine in pools and hot tubs can cause damage.  Your fingers also shrink when swimming in cool water and your ring can slip off.
• Don't wear your ring when playing sports, exercising or gardening.  Hard impacts can cause damage.
