For longer product life, remember to always put this piece on as the 'finishing touch', after using perfumes, hair spray and make-up. If cosmetics are applied while wearing jewellery, they will build up on the surface, dulling its appearance. To clean this piece, please use lukewarm water with a small amount of mild washing-up liquid, then rinse with cold water and dab dry with a soft cloth or paper towel.Then gently wipe the dry surface of the metal with the polishing cloth (gift)
