Jewelry Care Guide

💛 Caring for your Olivia Elise pieces

Every piece of Olivia Elise Jewelry is designed to be worn and loved. Just like anything meaningful, it deserves a little care along the way. Following these simple guidelines will help keep your jewelry looking beautiful for years to come.

✨ General Care for All Pieces

To maintain the shine and integrity of your jewelry:

  • Gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wearing to remove oils and residue.
  • Avoid contact with lotions, perfumes, hairspray, or other beauty products.
  • Remove jewelry before swimming, showering, working out, or sleeping.
  • Store pieces in a dry, cool place, preferably in a pouch or box, away from direct sunlight and moisture.

🔸 18k PVD Gold-Plated Stainless Steel

Our core collection is made with durable, tarnish-resistant 18k PVD gold plating over stainless steel. It's designed for everyday wear, but like all plated jewelry, it still benefits from care.

PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) is a premium gold plating process that creates a stronger, longer-lasting bond than traditional electroplating. It results in a finish that’s more resistant to fading, tarnishing, and scratches, so your jewelry stays beautiful longer, even with frequent wear.

Do

  • Wipe gently with a lint-free cloth after each wear
  • Use mild soap and lukewarm water for deeper cleaning, then dry thoroughly
  • Store individually to prevent scratching or tangling

Avoid

  • Harsh chemicals like bleach, chlorine, ammonia, or acetone
  • Abrasive cloths or cleaners (no scrubbing or ultrasonic machines)
  • Prolonged water exposure (e.g., swimming, hot tubs, long showers)

💎 Cubic Zirconia & Natural Stones

Some of our pieces feature stones with sparkle and soul, and they need gentle care to stay bright.

  • Clean stones with a soft cloth; use mild soap and water if needed
  • Avoid impact or dropping, as stones can chip or loosen over time
  • Store in a soft pouch to avoid scratching the surface

🧿 Copper & Electroformed Crystal

Our one-of-a-kind electroformed necklaces uses copper and natural crystal, making each piece special.

  • Keep dry: copper may oxidize or patina with moisture and air over time
  • Store in a cool, dry space, ideally in an airtight bag
  • Gently clean with a soft, dry cloth — avoid water or soap

🌙 Final Tips

  • Apply perfumes, lotions, and cosmetics before putting on your jewelry
  • Remove before bed, workouts, or water exposure
  • Remember: your unique skin chemistry (natural oils, pH, etc.) may affect wear over time
