The exorbitant cost of diamonds prompts consumers to go for cubic zirconias, which look very much like diamonds but are highly affordable. Moreover, their availability in varying colors and styles in different settings prompts people to use them regularly.
However, you need to take proper care of these stones, enabling them to maintain their brilliance and look impressive when in use. Here’s how you can maintain their looks for years to come.
You’ll need the following:
- Toothbrush
- Mild detergent or jewelry cleaner
- Jewelry box or pouch
* Do not apply soaps, perfumes and lotions while you are still wearing your cubic zirconia. Chemicals in these items can severely affect the luster of cubic zirconia.
* Cubic zirconias should be cleaned with a soft detergent or jewelry cleaner and a toothbrush. If you are unable to get rid of all the deposits, let a professional do it for you. Customary cleaning helps preventing costly and serious injuries to the jewelry.
* Avoid scratching any surface with cubic zirconia, as they are not as hard as diamonds and could get scratched easily.
* Remove your jewelry before handling any bleach or while swimming. Strong chemicals cause wear and tear of the stone.
* When not in use, save your cubic zirconia from harm by storing it in a pouch or jewelry box.
