How to keep your jewels clean after Holi

Holi is upon us and we just can’t wait to be drenched! We do all the preparations before playing with colors; like oiling of hair, applying sunscreen and moisturizing lotion on exposed skin etc etc. But often forget to change or remove the daily jewellery we are wearing. This results in tainted, damaged jewellery in the end. Here are few important easy tips to keep your jewellery well and sparkling post holi celebrations.

1 Cleaning and storing

Go out in best of your style with your jewellery this Holi, but once the celebration is over, make sure to clean your jewellery with right care and store them in zip-lock bags to avoid pigmentation, which causes due to oxidisation.

2 Care for silver, gold and platinum jewellery

When these metal jewellery come in contact with wet skin, dark spots begin to appear and damage the finishing of the jewellery. Use a soft brush to remove these marks with soap water and wipe it with soft damp cloth.

3 Love your Pearls

The layers of nacre, of which a pearl is made, are very soft and easily damaged. These are also be eaten away by alcohol and chemicals exuded by skin. Remember to wash your cultured pearl jewellery in mild, soapy water before storing them in jewellery box.

4 Care for diamond and gemstones

Refrain from wearing delicate settings of jewellery if you are planning to play holi with fervor and enthusiasm. Even though, you happen to get your diamond jewellery tinted, soak it in lukewarm water with 1-2 drops of ammonia based household cleaner. Use a gentle toothbrush to remove residues. After that, rinse the jewellery thoroughly in plain water and air-dry before storing or wearing it again.

5 Professional care

You may also use specialized jewellery cleaning sprays. Spray it on the jewellery and leave for one minute before rinsing in water. You may also visit your trusted jeweller for the proper and professional cleaning of your jewellery. But never trust a new jewellery and beware of those door to door roaming frauds who claim to shine your jewellery like new. Hope you know where we are indicating

Ace the art of layering necklaces

While it is very easy to go with the flow of the latest trend or the season’s “It jewel pieces”, style frankly isn’t something that you can buy over the counter. Sure, celebs and royals have their share of exclusive jewels, but the reason why some jewellery trends have become icons and inspirations is because of how they are being put together with the whole look. After all, it’s about how you style it — and styling, pretty ladies, is free.

Big in size, bold necklaces have been very much in demand this year, but lately, at Rabhyaa, we came across the demand for pairing two or more necklaces together to create a statement on its own. A single bold statement necklace is something which can be seen worn by majority of women at the party. If you wish to set the bar high and look uniquely beautiful and dazzling at the evening, then go for pairing up two or more necklaces in layers.

Know how to ace the art of layering necklaces for classier and bolder look –

1. Try the graduated girlie effect with delicate short length necklaces teamed with a little chunkier, longer necklaces.

2. Pair your larger-than-life necklaces with dainty chains, and enjoy a new gorgeous feel on the neckline.

3. Give your slender neckline a collar effect by layering delicate diamond necklaces that rest right on top of each other.

4. Gold may be in vogue, but silver can give more unique feel to your entire look. Count on some vintage silver necklaces.

5. Diamond polki necklaces with attached strings add an instant royal feel to an outfit. Go for minimalistic earrings with these layered necklaces and spread your charm wherever you go 🙂

  The engagement ring is going to be on your finger all the time. Thus, make sure you buy a one that you can wear every single day and complements every outfit you wear.
