To extend the life of the gold plated finish. Do not expose to water or chemicals. Definitely do not shower with it. Avoid contact with all soaps, shampoos, deodorants, and perfumes. Minimize perspiration. Costume jewelry should not be worn 24/7. After each wearing, use a soft cloth to gently wipe the gold plated finish to remove dirt and any skin oils. This will help retain the luster and overall appearance of the piece. Store it away from other jewelry, so it does not get scratched.
