What Is Fashion Jewelry?

Before we dive into how to clean fashion jewelry, let’s understand what it is. Fashion jewelry, often called costume jewelry, is made from base metals like stainless steel, copper, brass, or alloy and finished with gold, silver, rhodium, or enamel plating. These pieces are more budget-friendly than fine jewelry but can tarnish without proper care.

Unlike others, Jewellery Hat’s collection is made from high-quality stainless steel, making it anti-tarnish, waterproof, and skin-safe. But cleaning it the right way can enhance its shine even more.


Why Does Fashion Jewelry Tarnish?

Even the best-made fashion jewelry can become dull due to:

  • Sweat and skin oils

  • Perfume, lotion, and makeup

  • Pollution and humidity

  • Improper storage

While our Jewellery Hat collection resists most of these issues thanks to our anti-tarnish technology, it’s still helpful to know how to clean fashion jewelry for those occasional touch-ups or buildup removal.
