18K gold plated jewelry can stay bright and beautiful for years with just a little care. Here are our top tips for keeping your Olivana Studio pieces looking their best.

1. Keep it dry

Moisture is the biggest cause of tarnishing. Remove earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and rings before showering, swimming, or working out, and put jewelry on last after applying lotion, perfume, or hairspray.

2. Store it properly

Store each piece separately in a soft pouch or lined jewelry box, away from direct sunlight and humidity. Letting pieces tangle or rub against each other can wear down the gold plating over time.

3. Clean gently

Wipe jewelry after wearing with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, and abrasive polishing cloths, which can strip gold plating.

4. Take it off for chores and workouts

Household cleaning products, chlorine, and sweat can all speed up tarnishing. Set jewelry aside during cleaning, gym sessions, and swimming.

5. Choose hypoallergenic, tarnish-resistant pieces

All Olivana Studio jewelry is crafted from stainless steel with 18K gold plating, making it hypoallergenic and more tarnish-resistant than plated brass or base metal jewelry - ideal for sensitive skin and everyday wear.

With a little care, your favorite pieces can stay as radiant as the day they arrived.
