How to clean silver jewellery?

You would have often seen your shining silver jewellery turning grey.

Many things in your everyday life can cause your silver to tarnish. These include:

  • Hand creams
  • Perfumes
  • Soaps
  • Makeup
  • Chlorine from swimming pools or cleaning chemicals
  • The PH of your skin
  • The air around you, especially if it's humid

Silver tarnish is almost impossible to avoid, but there are a lot of factors that can make it more or less obvious and happen more or less quickly. 

The good news is that you can make a big difference to how bad the tarnish gets and you can clean your silver to bring it back to its sparkling best.
