✨How to Keep Your Luxe Links Jewelry Shining

Jewelry has a way of finishing the whole look.

Whether you’re reaching for a statement bracelet, stacking your favorite rings, adding a little sparkle with a necklace, or wearing the piece you never want to take off, proper care can make a big difference in how your jewelry looks over time.

At Luxe Links by Rae Symone’, many of our pieces feature brass bases, gold or silver plating, and high-quality cubic zirconia stones. These materials give you that beautiful, elevated look—but like most fashion jewelry, they need to be handled with care.

Here’s how to keep your Luxe Links pieces looking their best…

1. Put Your Jewelry On Last

One of the easiest ways to protect your jewelry is to make it the last step when getting dressed.

Apply your:

  • Lotion
  • Perfume
  • Body oils
  • Makeup
  • Hairspray

before putting on your jewelry.

Beauty products can build up on metal and stones and may cause plated finishes to dull faster.

A good rule to remember:

Beauty first. Luxe Links last.

2. Keep It Away From Water

We know—it can be tempting to leave your favorite bracelet or necklace on all day.

But when it comes to plated jewelry, water is not your best friend.

Remove your jewelry before:

  • Showering
  • Swimming
  • Exercising
  • Washing dishes
  • Cleaning
  • Going to bed

Chlorine, salt water, sweat, soaps, and cleaning products can all affect the finish of your jewelry.

The less unnecessary moisture your pieces are exposed to, the better.

3. Store Each Piece Properly

Throwing all of your jewelry together may be easy, but it can lead to scratching, tangling, and unnecessary wear.

Instead, store pieces separately whenever possible.

Use:

  • Your jewelry box
  • A soft pouch
  • Individual compartments
  • The original Luxe Links packaging

Necklaces should be stored in a way that prevents tangling, while rings and bracelets should be kept away from pieces that may scratch them.

And yes—the packaging is pretty, but it has a job too. 😉

4. Gently Clean Your Jewelry

You do not need harsh jewelry cleaners to keep your pieces looking beautiful.

For routine care, use a clean, soft, dry cloth to gently wipe away:

  • Fingerprints
  • Oils
  • Makeup residue
  • Light surface buildup

Be especially gentle around stones and settings.

Avoid abrasive cloths, harsh chemicals, bleach, alcohol-based cleaners, and household cleaning products.

More cleaning power does not always mean better results.

Gentle is the goal.

5. Give Your Jewelry a Break

We love an everyday signature piece just as much as you do, but rotating your jewelry can help extend the life of your collection.

Instead of wearing the same piece through everything, switch it up.

Today might be your Heart of Luxe moment.

Tomorrow might call for Divine Links.

And some days?

Stack it up. ✨

Caring for your jewelry doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy it—it simply means being intentional about when and how you wear it.

6. Remember: Plated Jewelry Requires Care

Gold-plated and silver-plated jewelry can naturally experience changes over time depending on:

  • How often it is worn
  • Skin chemistry
  • Moisture exposure
  • Product exposure
  • Storage habits
  • Overall care

This does not necessarily mean something is wrong with the piece.

Plating creates the beautiful exterior finish you see, and caring for that finish helps preserve its appearance for as long as possible.
