JEWELRY CARE

Hey there, jewelry lovers！Let’s talk about keeping your Cords Club pieces looking fire—and lasting way longer than your latest TikTok trend. Proper care isn’t just about shine (though, let’s be real, that’s a nice bonus)—it’s about protecting your investment, keeping your skin happy, and making sure those pieces stay yoursfor years to come. Here’s the lowdown on how to treat your jewelry right:

Keep ’Em Clean (Because Dirt’s Not a Good Accessory)

First rule of jewelry club: Wash your pieces regularly. Think of it like showering for your bling—gentle, but necessary. For daily wear (we see you, office-to-brunch crew), wipe ’em down with a soft cloth dipped in warm water and a drop of mild soap (baby shampoo works great, too!). If you’re feeling fancy, a quick saline rinse (think contact lens solution) can help dissolve any stubborn gunk, especially if you wear them near your ears or face. Pro tip: Clean your earsand piercings too—they’re just as important as the jewelry itself, and nobody wants a sore earlobe ruining their vibe.

Store ’Em Smart (No More Scratched Regrets)

When you’re not rocking your Cords Club pieces, don’t just toss ’em in a drawer (RIP to all the scratched hoops we’ve seen). Grab your Cords Club Travel Palette or a soft, padded pouch—these are designed to keep your jewelry safe from scratches, dings, or accidental spills (we’ve all knocked over a coffee cup at 8 AM). For extra protection, wrap delicate pieces (like resin or pearl) in tissue paper before tucking them away. Your future self will thank you when you pull them out looking brand new.

Check the Fixings (Loose Parts Are a No-Go)

Flat backs, hoops, posts—these little guys are the unsung heroes of your jewelry. But they can sneakily loosen over time (thanks, gravity and daily wear!). Every couple days, take 30 seconds to give your pieces a once-over: gently wiggle flat backs to make sure they’re snug, and twist hoops to check for play. If anything feels loose, grab a pair of tweezers (clean ones, please!) and gentlytighten them. No need to go HAM—over-tightening can damage the metal or your skin. Need a visual?

Bottom line: Your jewelry’s not just bling—it’s a part of your story. Treat it with a little TLC, and it’ll keep shining bright, making you feel confident every time you put it on. Now go rock those Cords Club pieces like the queen/king you are. 💎
