Did you know that there are natural ingredients you can use to clean your gold bling? Yup, you heard that right! Not only are these natural ingredients gentler than chemical cleaners, but they’re also a great option for those with sensitive skin or who just want to avoid harsh chemicals. Here are a few methods you can try at home!
Baking soda, lemon juice & more!
- Baking soda and water: Mix a bit of baking soda and water to create a paste, then use a soft-bristled brush or cloth to give your gold jewelry a gentle scrub. Rinse with warm water and dry with a clean cloth.
- Vinegar and water: Mix equal parts of white vinegar and water in a bowl, and let your gold jewelry soak in the solution for 15-20 minutes. Rinse with warm water and dry with a clean cloth.
- Lemon juice: Soak your gold jewelry in lemon juice for 10-15 minutes, then rinse with warm water and dry with a clean cloth. Lemon juice is a natural acid that can work wonders on cleaning gold jewelry.
- Soda Water: Pour some water soda into a bowl, let your gold jewelry soak for a few minutes, then rinse with warm water and dry with a clean cloth. Here’s other household items that also scrub up a treat using soda water!
Just keep in mind that while these natural ingredients can be effective at cleaning gold jewelry, they may not be suitable for all types of jewelry. Soft or porous stones like pearls or opals may be damaged by certain cleaning methods, so always check with your jeweler or the manufacturer’s instructions before trying any new cleaning technique. So go ahead, give your gold jewelry some natural TLC, and watch it sparkle like never before!
