How to care for your jewelry?
Instants Plaisirs some maintenance tips and tricks to take care of your little gems so that they last over time ♡
Three different materials are available on our website:
- The 3-micron gold-plated jewelry 18-karat gold
- The 925 silver jewelry (rhodium-plated or not, depending on the model)
- The costume jewelry : Gold-plated or silver-plated stainless steel
Key features: Regardless of the material, all our jewelry is resistant to fresh water.
Our small pieces of jewelry are designed to accompany you in your daily life and are often worn together. Sometimes mistreated during the day, they need, just like us, to rest and be pampered. Here is a brief summary of how to care for them:
- In the morning, put on your jewelry after applying your makeup (avoiding contact with perfume/cosmetics).
- During the day, remove them before any physical activity, swimming, or household chores, and store them in your Instants Plaisirs pouches or cases.
- In the evening, clean them thoroughly with a soft cloth or chamois leather before leaving them to rest away from moisture and individually in your Instants Plaisirs pouches or cases.
When traveling, we recommend that you separate your jewelry into several pouches or cases to prevent them from damaging each other.
If, despite these precautions, your jewelry begins to tarnish or leave black marks on your skin, more thorough cleaning is necessary:
Fill a bowl with warm water and Marseille soap, immerse your jewelry in it, and clean it gently with a soft-bristled brush or soft cloth, depending on the delicacy of the jewelry. Rinse it with clean water and wipe it with a soft, clean, dry cloth.
To learn more about each type of jewelry offered on the site, we invite you to browse the additional information specific to each item below.
Caring for gold-plated jewelry
What is gold-plated jewelry?
Gold-plated jewelry is metal jewelry (such as brass) covered with a layer of gold plating. All of our gold-plated jewelry has a 3-micron 18-karat plating. This type of plating is required to obtain the "gold-plated" designation in France. Less expensive than gold jewelry but with a beautiful golden shine and lasting quality, gold-plated jewelry has an important place in our jewelry boxes, and it is for all these reasons that we are pleased to offer it on our website.
How to care for and clean gold-plated jewelry?
Gold-plated jewelry, like silver, can tarnish over time. Several factors can affect its condition over the years. To keep it looking its best for as long as possible, we recommend removing your gold-plated jewelry when going to the beach or swimming in the sea, avoiding exposure to cosmetics (perfume, creams, etc.), and taking it off when doing housework or playing sports.
To clean your gold-plated jewelry and restore its shine, nothing could be simpler: choose a soft cloth (or chamois leather) and use soapy water to gently clean it. Dry it carefully with a clean, dry cloth.
When you are not wearing your jewelry, store it in its box or pouch, in a dry place away from light.
Caring for 925 sterling silver jewelry
What is 925 sterling silver jewelry?
925 silver jewelry is jewelry that meets the 925/1000 standard. This means that this jewelry is composed of at least 92.5% pure silver. In order to be workable and maintain a certain hardness, other metals are added to the composition, such as copper.
Please note that most of our silver jewelry is rhodium-plated. An extra layer of rhodium metal is added to protect it.
How to care for and clean silver jewelry?
This precious metal naturally tarnishes and darkens over time when exposed to air and moisture. Several factors can influence how silver jewelry will change over the years. These include skin acidity, which varies from person to person. To slow down oxidation, we recommend removing your small silver jewelry when swimming in the sea or pool, as well as when doing household chores and sports activities. It is also advisable to avoid contact with cosmetics such as perfume.
Don't worry! To clean your silver jewelry, use a soft cloth, such as a chamois cloth. Then gently rub your jewelry. For a more thorough cleaning, there are specific products available on the market, such as cleaning baths and kits.
Finally, keep your jewelry dry, in its case, away from light, when you are not wearing it.
Caring for stainless steel jewelry
What is stainless steel jewelry?
Stainless steel is a good alternative when choosing jewelry. In addition to being affordable, stainless steel jewelry is both durable and resistant to oxidation over time.
How to care for and clean stainless steel jewelry?
Cleaning them is easy: use a soft cloth and gently rub the jewelry. That's it!
We offer jewelry made from semi-precious stones on our website. These natural stones can vary in shape, color, and size. This is what makes your jewelry unique. ♡
