So do we! &#xA0;When using lotions or perfumes, it&apos;s best to avoid direct contact with your jewelry. &#xA0;These fragrances typically contain chemicals that may cause oxidation and allow the jewelry to tarnish, drastically reducing the shine and appearance. The oils on your hands and skin can cause a similar effect, so always make sure your hands are clean when handling your jewelry!<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 25px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: &quot;Source Sans Pro&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: 0.4px; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">Love to swim? &#xA0;Your jewelry doesn&apos;t! &#xA0;Keep your pieces high and dry when taking a dip in the pool, bathing or exercising. &#xA0;A small amount of water and mild soap when deep-cleaning jewelry pieces is fine, but too much water can damage the material and dull the surface.<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 25px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: &quot;Source Sans Pro&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: 0.4px; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">Love the planet? &#xA0;Save the trees! &#xA0;Don&apos;t use paper towels or other abrasive materials when cleaning your jewelry. &#xA0;Always wipe them with a soft cloth to avoid scratches and unwanted lines/swirls. &#xA0;P.S. be mindful when stacking pieces so they don&apos;t rub against each other and wear away the material.&#xA0;<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 25px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: &quot;Source Sans Pro&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: 0.4px; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">If you have any questions or concerns that are not covered here, feel free to <a href="https://armedforcesboutique.com/pages/faq">contact us</a>! &#xA0;<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 25px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: &quot;Source Sans Pro&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: 0.4px; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"> <p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 25px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: &quot;Source Sans Pro&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: 0.4px; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"> <p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 25px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: &quot;Source Sans Pro&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: 0.4px; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">
