Zync Alloy

Avoid contact with water:

Water, especially salt water and chlorinated water, can accelerate oxidation and cause discoloration. Remove jewelry before swimming, showering, or washing your hands.

Protect against chemicals:

Perfumes, lotions, hairsprays, and cleaning products can react with zinc alloy, causing wear or discoloration. Apply these products before putting on jewelry and avoid direct contact.

Proper storage:

Store jewelry in a dry place, preferably in a lined box or individual velvet bags. This prevents scratches and minimizes exposure to air, which can cause oxidation.

Avoid prolonged exposure to sweat:

Sweat contains salt and other elements that can corrode jewelry. If you wear your jewelry while exercising, gently wipe it afterwards to remove sweat residue.

Regular cleaning:

Wipe your jewelry with a soft, dry cloth after each use to remove any product residue or oils from your skin. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or hard brushes.

Gentle handling:

Zinc alloy can be relatively malleable, so avoid bending or applying excessive pressure to the jewelry to prevent warping.

By following these practices, you can extend the life and beauty of your zinc alloy jewelry.

Stainless Steel

Chemical protection:

Perfumes, lotions, hair sprays, and cleaning products can react with stainless steel, causing wear or discoloration.
Apply these products before putting on your jewelry and avoid direct contact.
Stain removal:

To remove stains, use a solution of baking soda diluted in water.
Apply the solution with a soft cloth and rinse thoroughly.

Avoid contact with abrasive products:

Do not use steel sponges, steel wool, or abrasive cleaning products, as they can scratch the surface of stainless steel.
Prefer soft cloths and mild soap for cleaning.

Proper drying:

Always dry stainless steel surfaces thoroughly after cleaning to avoid water spots.
Use a soft, dry cloth to ensure the surface remains shiny.

Gentle handling:

Although resistant, stainless steel can scratch and stain with improper use. Handle utensils with care to ensure their durability.
By following these practices, it is possible to keep stainless steel looking beautiful and in good condition.
