How to Care for Natural Stone Bracelets | To Enjoy Them for a Long Time
Natural stone bracelets are cherished accessories that gently accompany you in your daily life.
To enjoy the unique colors and sparkle of natural stones for a long time, it's important to treat them with a little care.
Here, we introduce basic care methods to help you comfortably wear your LUNARI natural stone bracelet in your daily life.
1. Gently wipe with a soft cloth after use
After wearing your natural stone bracelet, it's recommended to wipe it lightly with a soft cloth before storing it.
If sweat, sebum, hand cream, or perfume remain on the stones or elastic, it can cause dullness or deterioration.
Even by gently wiping the surface without rubbing vigorously, you can help maintain the beauty of the natural stones.
2. Avoid prolonged contact with water or sweat
Some natural stones are vulnerable to water and moisture, depending on their type.
We recommend removing your bracelet as much as possible when washing your hands, bathing, visiting hot springs, swimming in pools, swimming in the sea, or exercising.
While brief exposure to water may not immediately cause problems, it's important to minimize the time it spends in contact with water or sweat to enjoy it beautifully for a long time.
If it gets wet, gently wipe off the moisture with a dry, soft cloth and allow it to air dry in a well-ventilated area.
3. Store away from direct sunlight and high temperatures/humidity
Some natural stones are prone to color changes when exposed to strong sunlight for long periods.
When storing, it's recommended to avoid places with direct sunlight and high humidity.
Avoid areas prone to high temperatures like windowsills, bathrooms, and inside cars, and store in as cool and dry a place as possible.
LUNARI recommends storing natural stone bracelets in a soft pouch or case when not wearing them.
4. Avoid immediately after applying perfume or hand cream
If perfume, hairspray, hand cream, sunscreen, etc., adhere to the natural stones or elastic parts, it can cause dullness, discoloration, or deterioration.
When putting it on before going out, it's recommended to apply it last, after skincare and perfume have absorbed into your skin.
Upon returning home, it's even safer to lightly wipe it with a soft cloth before storing it.
5. Remove before sleeping or exercising
Natural stone bracelets can be subjected to unexpected forces while sleeping or exercising.
They might get snagged when turning over or changing clothes, or the elastic might stretch or break due to strong impact.
To ensure long-term enjoyment, it's safest to remove them when sleeping, exercising, or doing household chores.
In situations where you feel it "might be a bit strenuous," don't force yourself to keep it on; gently let it rest.
6. Enjoy the individual differences and changes of natural stones
No two natural stones have the exact same appearance.
Each stone differs in color, pattern, translucence, inclusions, and sparkle. Also, their appearance may gradually change with long-term use.
These are the natural characteristics unique to natural stones.
We hope you can enjoy not only their new sparkle but also the way they gradually blend into your life as a unique piece that is truly yours.
7. If the elastic feels loose
Natural stone bracelets may gradually stretch out with repeated use.
If gaps appear between the stones, or if the fit feels loose, we recommend prompt maintenance rather than pulling on it forcefully.
To enjoy your favorite piece for a long time, if you notice any discomfort, please check its condition rather than continuing to use it as is.
Summary
To enjoy natural stone bracelets for a long time, daily small habits are more important than special care.
Wipe with a soft cloth after use.
Avoid prolonged contact with water or sweat.
Avoid direct sunlight and high temperatures/humidity.
Wear after perfume and cream have absorbed.
Remove when sleeping or exercising.
By treating them with a little care, you can enjoy the unique colors and sparkle of natural stones for even longer.
May your LUNARI natural stone bracelet be a cherished accessory that gently accompanies you every day.
