Cubic zirconia (CZ) morsels will shine and sparkle even better than those expensive diamonds if they’re being treated and cared properly. They will give you that perfection and satisfaction since they will last number of years if they’re being taken cared of well. These are popularly bought nowadays by many because of its diamond-like appearance, its versatility and most especially because of its affordability.
To keep their beauty and long lasting, I have listed some of the simple ways to properly treat these precious gems.
Why it becomes dull?
CZ gems may become dull because of the lotions applied to the body and wearing it while doing so, human sweat, hairspray (obviously because of the strong chemicals that’s within it) and/or from the substances that we got in our surroundings like dust and pollutions. It is important to keep them clean to make it look like fresh or new all the time.
How do I clean CZ Jewellery?
This is just so simple; one can just use a used toothbrush to clean CZ gems. This can help remove those substances that got trapped on them easily and effectively. Note that this only requires a smooth brushing so to avoid possible deformation of the debris or what not. Use warm water and a liquid soap (CZ jewellery must not be dipped directly to the soap, use the brush instead). Rinse the morsels in warm water and use cotton to dry them out.
What to do to keep its quality?
Strong element or chemical is a big NO-NO. They are so violent that could possibly damage the jewellery. Chemicals like chlorine, ammonia, or bleach must be avoided as much as possible. If you think there is a need for you to clean your CZ gem that much, please see your jeweler as they are the ones who know the best thing to do. Never experiment with it yourself!
When is the best time to take it off?
Always be cautious with your CZ jewellery. Remember to remove it before applying anything to your body (lotions, moisturizers, etc) and never forget to wear it again after applying. Remove it when you’re sleeping to avoid possible damages and lastly, keep it in a safe and soft jewellery box to avoid it from being scratched.
Hope I have helped you guys in any way. ^_^
