Product Care & Safety

Keep Your Jewelry Beautiful, Longer ✨

At Akvira Luxe, our jewelry is designed to bring effortless elegance to your everyday style.

With the right care, you can help maintain its shine, finish, and beauty for longer. Because our pieces feature gold plating over stainless steel, the gold finish is a surface layer and may naturally change or fade over time—especially with frequent or continuous wear.

This is normal for gold-plated jewelry and does not mean your jewelry is defective.

💛 The Golden Rule

The less exposure your jewelry has to moisture, chemicals, friction, and products, the longer the gold finish can last.

For the best longevity, we recommend removing your jewelry before activities that may cause excessive exposure or wear.

How to Care for Your Jewelry

🚿 Keep It Dry

Although our jewelry is designed with durable materials, prolonged or repeated exposure to water can contribute to faster wear of the gold-plated finish.

We recommend removing your jewelry before:

  • Showering or bathing

  • Swimming

  • Using a hot tub or sauna

  • Exercising or activities involving heavy perspiration

For the longest-lasting finish, keep your jewelry dry whenever possible.

💐 Apply Beauty Products First

Perfume, lotions, creams, sunscreen, hairspray, makeup, and other beauty products can come into contact with the jewelry and gradually affect its finish.

Our tip: Complete your beauty routine first, allow products to dry, and then put on your jewelry.

🧴 Avoid Chemicals

Keep your jewelry away from harsh chemicals and cleaning products, including:

  • Chlorine

  • Bleach

  • Household cleaners

  • Detergents

  • Strong solvents

  • Alcohol-based products

These substances can accelerate discoloration or wear of the gold-plated surface.

🛏️ Remove Before Sleeping

Sleeping in your jewelry can create repeated friction against your skin, clothing, or bedding.

Removing your pieces before bed helps reduce unnecessary wear and helps maintain their shape and finish.

👗 Be Mindful of Friction

Repeated rubbing and contact can gradually wear down gold plating.

Try to avoid:

  • Wearing several pieces that constantly rub against each other

  • Pulling or bending delicate pieces

  • Wearing jewelry under tight clothing

  • Excessive scratching or impact

Treat your jewelry as a delicate accessory and handle it gently.

✨ Cleaning Your Jewelry

A little cleaning goes a long way.

After wearing your jewelry, gently wipe it with a soft, dry microfiber or jewelry cloth to remove oils, moisture, and residue.

Please Do Not Use:

❌ Abrasive polishing cloths
❌ Toothpaste
❌ Baking soda
❌ Harsh jewelry cleaners
❌ Bleach or chemical cleaners
❌ Rough brushes or scrubbing materials

Never aggressively rub or scrub gold-plated jewelry, as this can remove the gold finish faster.

👜 Store It Properly

When you're not wearing your jewelry, store it in a clean, dry, soft pouch or jewelry box.

For best results:

  • Store pieces separately to prevent scratching and friction.

  • Keep jewelry away from humidity and direct moisture.

  • Avoid storing multiple pieces tangled together.

  • Make sure your jewelry is completely dry before storing it.

Proper storage helps protect the finish and keeps your jewelry ready for its next wear.

Understanding Gold-Plated Jewelry

Why Can Gold Plating Fade?

Gold plating is a thin layer of gold applied over another metal, such as stainless steel.

Over time, everyday factors such as:

Water + Sweat + Chemicals + Friction + Frequent Wear

can gradually wear down this gold layer.

The rate at which this happens varies from person to person and depends on factors such as how often the piece is worn, skin chemistry, perspiration, exposure to water and products, and how the jewelry is stored and cared for.

💛 Occasional Wear vs. Continuous Wear

A piece worn occasionally and cared for properly will generally retain its finish longer than a piece worn continuously every day.

If you wear your jewelry 24/7, some natural wear of the gold finish should be expected over time.

This is a normal characteristic of gold-plated jewelry.

Our Care Recommendation

For the best possible longevity:

Wear → Enjoy → Remove → Wipe → Store

It's that simple.

Wear it for your favorite moments.
Remove it before water, workouts, sleep, and beauty routines.
Give it a gentle wipe after wearing.
Store it safely until you're ready to wear it again.

A little care can make a big difference. ✨

Jewelry Safety

Please follow these general safety guidelines:

  • Keep jewelry away from young children and pets.

  • Some pieces may contain small components that can present a choking hazard.

  • Remove jewelry during activities where it could become caught, pulled, or damaged.

  • Do not wear jewelry if it becomes damaged, broken, or has sharp edges.

  • Stop wearing a piece if you experience irritation or discomfort.

  • If you have a known sensitivity to any jewelry material, review the product details before purchasing.

If a piece becomes damaged, please discontinue use and contact Akvira Luxe Customer Care for assistance.

A Note About Color & Finish

Every piece of jewelry is unique, and slight variations in color, shine, or finish may occur.

Over time, the appearance of a gold-plated piece may naturally change with use. This is expected wear of the plating and is not necessarily a manufacturing defect.

The longevity of the finish cannot be guaranteed because it depends on individual wear and care conditions.
