HOW TO: clean fashion jewelry with one household product

  • Опубликовано: 30 май 2013
  • Here is a quick and easy tutorial on how to clean jewelry that is not made from real gold or silver. Jewelry becomes dull and dirty from the oils in your skin, the air, and just laying around. This is a good way to brighten up old fashion jewelry that you may have bought from Forever21, Charlotte Russe, etc.
    All you need is:
    -jewelry that needs to be cleaned
    -any kind of toothpaste
    -an old toothbrush
    -a soft towel

    This is the tip ive been using for years passed down from my great grandma. Works better if its a cheap white traditional toothpaste too. It works on real silver and gold.

      Please do NOT use toothpaste on real gold or silver jewelry! You will damage it--I saw it too many times when I worked in a fine jewelry store.

      Jessie Baker if something like (toothpaste!!) can hurt real expensive gold and not fake gold then why even buy the real thing ? 🤷🏽‍♂️

    Whether this works or not it's a good idea to suggest putting the plug in the sink, or a washcloth, so nothing falls into the drain.

    • @sharid76
      @sharid76 5 лет назад

      And, if you do that, then lay out a washcloth in the bottom of the sink too, to protect both the jewelry and the surface of the sink from dark marks, chips, etc from dropping things in it while you are working. It's difficult to be too careful with this!

  • @conniejohnson3029

    I just did it and it worked! It was a nice gold tone intricate design with simulated pearls. It was new, but so tarnished I was kind of embarrassed to wear it. I didn't have her Crest, I used my Crest "Brilliance" and I worked deliberately and quickly. I didn't want to dull the pearls. The Crest almost started to take the color off to where a copper color showed. Just be quick and stop the sink up in case you drop something. Thank you for the tip. I also used it on 2 silver tone bracelets. Again, working super fast with toothbrush. Bingo! Well actually I used in on a gold ring that has opal. Hard to clean with that opal. I worked super quick with toothbrush and rinsed quickly. Nice. First time that was cleaned in a long, long time. Again, much thanks and thank you for not making the video long and drawn out.

      NEVER keep your jewelry on, either costume or fine, when using any kind of chemicals. Especially strong chemicals like that contained in Nair! You've already seen the results of that. But that also includes household and laundry cleaners, particularly anything containing chlorine bleach, which will absolutely ruin gold. It will eat it up, like acid.
      My grandfather was a bench jeweler when I was born in 1957, and until he passed away when I was in my 40's. I learned a considerable amount from him over those years - he started teaching me for real when I turned 9. That's a lot of years of great information!

      @@sandraoaks7887 - Thank you very much. It's a lot of information. I'm actually not what you might consider a good candidate for doing podcasts, but I have passed it down on these kinds of posts on RUclips wherever it seems to fit in appropriately, or whenever anyone asks questions where I feel the answer might be helpful. It's easier to do it "in small doses - or even almost large" wherever it seems to fit in best.
