Red String Care Instructions:

• Waterproof and Sweat-Resistant: It is prone to fading and loosening when exposed to water. Remove it before taking a bath, swimming, or engaging in sports.
• Chemical-Resistant: Perfumes, hand washes, and bleach can corrode the string. Take it off before applying makeup or doing household chores.
• Avoid Tugging: Do not pull it forcefully or use it as a bottle opener to prevent it from breaking or deforming.
• Store Separately: When not worn, place it in a small cloth bag or jewelry box to avoid friction with metals, keys, or other hard objects.
• Regular Cleaning: Wipe the surface with a slightly damp cotton cloth and air-dry it. Do not machine wash or expose it to direct sunlight.
• Regular Replacement: It is recommended to replace it every 6–12 months if worn daily. Replace it immediately if the color fades significantly or if it starts to fray, to maintain its auspicious meaning and durability.

Crystal Care and Purification Instructions

• Avoid Bumping: Crystals are hard but brittle, so they should be stored separately and kept away from hard objects like keys to prevent chipping or cracking.
• Avoid Sunlight and High Temperatures: Prolonged exposure to sunlight or proximity to heating sources can cause fading or cracking. Store them in a cool and shaded place.
• Keep Away from Chemicals: Perfumes, detergents, and chlorinated pool water can corrode the surface. It is best to remove crystals before applying makeup, taking a bath, or engaging in sports.
• Gentle Cleaning: Rinse under running lukewarm water for 10–20 seconds, gently brush the crevices with a soft-bristle brush, and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.
• Do Not Intentionally “Nurture” with Wear: Some crystals (such as obsidian and smoky quartz) have strong adsorption properties. Purify them promptly after wearing to avoid the accumulation of negative energy.
• Regularly Check the Cord: Inspect the cord of bracelets and pendants every 6–12 months. Replace it immediately if any wear is detected to prevent loss.

Regular Purification:

• Running Water Method: Rinse under clean tap water for 1–2 minutes, while silently reciting an intention for purification.
• Moonlight Method: Place the crystal by a window or on a balcony to be bathed in the gentle moonlight overnight.
• Cluster/Quartz Demagnetization: Place the crystal on a natural quartz cluster or amethyst geode for 4–6 hours to purify through resonance.
  

Jade Care Instructions

• Avoid Bumping: Impact can cause hidden cracks. Store and wear jade separately, away from hard objects.
• Avoid High Temperatures and Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to sunlight or proximity to heating sources can cause dehydration and fading. Store in a cool place.
• Keep Away from Chemicals: Acidic or alkaline substances such as perfume, detergent, and sweat can corrode the surface. It is best to remove jade before applying makeup, taking a bath, or engaging in sports.
• Gentle Cleaning: Use a soft-bristle brush to sweep away dust, then gently scrub with warm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.
• Wear Regularly: The natural oils and warmth from your skin can enhance the jade's luster. However, wash your hands before handling to minimize sweat residue.
• Regularly Check the Cord: Replace the cord of pendants and bracelets every 1–2 years to prevent breakage and loss.
  

Silver Jewelry Care Instructions

• Wearing: Wear regularly to keep it looking new; natural skin oils can help maintain its shine. Remove before exercising, swimming, soaking in hot springs, or taking a bath to avoid contact with sweat, chlorine, and sulfur compounds.
• Storage: Store each piece separately in a soft cloth bag or a sealed bag to minimize exposure to air and friction, which can prevent tarnishing and scratching.
• Cleaning: For daily maintenance, gently wipe with a silver polishing cloth. If tarnished, use a neutral silver cleaning solution or a mixture of toothpaste and a soft-bristle toothbrush to gently scrub, then rinse thoroughly with water and dry completely.
• Isolation: Avoid direct contact with perfumes, cosmetics, and household cleaning agents. Apply makeup and perfume before putting on your silver jewelry.
• Polishing: If there are noticeable scratches or severe tarnishing, it is recommended to return the jewelry to a professional silver store for polishing or rhodium plating to restore its luster.
