My PRECIOUS - a cleaning tip

by Errolyn


A little tip for those of you who wear your bling bling diamond solitaire everyday or as a jewellery shop assistant called it - rough use - then you'd realise pretty soon that you need to clean your diamond pretty often.

Someone said a cleaning every alternate day is required. However, from experience, I would say a weekly wash should suffice. I just use a little sauce bowl, add hand soap diluted with water and soak me precious. Apparently 10-15 mins should be enough to bring back the shine but the last time I did it, I kinda forgot about it until 2 hours later. Thank god the ring hadn't dissolved!
To be really thorough, use a soft bristled toothbrush and brush gently around the prongs to loosen debris. Rinse and carefully pat dry. Wah-la! Shiny as new!
