How To Take Care Of Your Engagement Ring

An engagement ring cannot be easily replaced, which is why it’s so important to take care of these prized possessions. They hold significant meaning, value, and memories and should be treated as such. Here are a couple of tips explaining how to best care for your engagement ring.

Keep your ring clean

When cleaning your ring, it’s best to avoid your home remedies and take it to an expert jeweler instead. Harsh cleaners at home can end up damaging your precious and sentimental diamond, which is the last thing you want. So take no chances and leave it to the experts to clean it.

Take off your ring when using products on your hands

Products such as lotions, hand creams, soaps, and sanitizers have chemicals that can damage the shine and luster of your ring. However, these chemicals are not as harsh as those in cleaning products like bleach. All in all – avoid wearing your ring while using other products that may get on your hands. 

Remove your ring during hands-on activities

While this should go without saying, many people still forget to remove their engagement ring during heavy hands-on activities. This includes exercising, gardening, lifting heavy items such as furniture, or even doing the dishes. Unfortunately, keeping your engagement ring on during these activities may result in a bent band or a chipped diamond.
