Why Gold-Plated Jewelry Deserves Proper Care
Gold-plated jewelry gives you the luxurious look of solid gold at a fraction of the price. At Anusi, our pieces are crafted with an 18K gold plating over a high-quality base metal, making them anti-tarnish, sweat-proof, and skin-safe — designed for real life. But like any beautiful thing, a little care goes a long way.
Follow these simple habits and your Anusi jewelry will stay radiant for years.
1. Keep It Dry (Most of the Time)
While our jewelry is sweat-proof and built for everyday wear, prolonged exposure to water — especially chlorinated pools, hot tubs, or the sea — can accelerate wear over time. Make it a habit to remove your pieces before swimming or bathing when possible.
2. Put Jewelry On Last
Perfume, hairspray, lotions, and sunscreen contain chemicals that can dull the surface of gold plating. Always apply these products first and let them dry before putting on your jewelry. This one small habit makes a big difference.
3. Clean Gently After Wearing
After a long day, give your pieces a quick wipe with a soft, dry cloth to remove any oils or residue. For a deeper clean, use a slightly damp cloth and mild soap — never harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Pat dry immediately and store.
4. Store Smartly
Store each piece separately in a soft pouch or a lined jewelry box to prevent scratching. Keep jewelry away from direct sunlight and humidity. A cool, dry drawer works perfectly.
5. Wear It Often (Yes, Really)
Our anti-tarnish formula means you don't have to save your Anusi pieces for special occasions. The more you wear them, the more they become a part of you. Everyday wear is exactly what they're designed for.
