Apparel Care

Taking proper care of your apparel ensures its longevity and maintains its vibrant appearance. Here are some essential aftercare instructions:

Washing

• Machine Wash: Most garments can be safely machine washed.
• Cold Water: Use cold water to prevent color fading and fabric damage.
• Gentle Cycle: Opt for a gentle cycle to minimize wear and tear.
• Mild Detergent: Use a mild detergent to avoid harsh chemicals that can damage the fabric.
• Separate Colors: Wash dark and light items separately to prevent color bleeding.
• Avoid Overloading: Do not overload the washing machine to allow for proper cleaning.

Drying

• Air Dry: Whenever possible, air dry your garments to maintain their shape and prevent shrinkage.
• Low Heat: If using a dryer, use the lowest heat setting to prevent damage.
• Remove Promptly: Take out your clothing promptly to avoid wrinkles.

• Low Heat: If ironing is necessary, use a low heat setting to prevent melting or scorching.
• Use a Cloth: Place a cloth or pressing cloth between the iron and the polyester fabric to protect it.

Storage

• Hang or Fold: Hang lightweight items and fold bulkier ones to maintain their shape.
• Dry Storage: Store your clothing in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture damage and mildew.

Stain Removal

• Act Quickly: Address stains promptly to prevent them from setting.
• Spot Test: Test any stain removal product on a small, inconspicuous area first.

Jewelry Care

• Gentle Cleaning: Use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently wipe your jewelry after each wear to remove oils and residue.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Keep your jewelry away from harsh chemicals, including perfumes, lotions, and household cleaners, as they can damage the gold plating.
• Storage: Store your jewelry in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and humidity. Use a jewelry pouch or a separate compartment to prevent scratching.
• Limit Exposure: Remove your jewelry when swimming or showering to prevent exposure to chlorine and moisture.

• Regular Polishing: Use a silver polishing cloth to gently buff away tarnish and maintain the shine of your jewelry.
• Avoid Moisture: Keep your jewelry dry and away from moisture, as silver plating is susceptible to tarnishing when exposed to humidity.
• Storage: Store your jewelry in an airtight container or a tarnish-resistant pouch to minimize tarnish formation.
• Avoid Chemicals: Remove your jewelry before applying lotions, perfumes, or engaging in household chores involving chemicals to protect the plating.

• Spot Cleaning: For minor stains, gently spot clean jewelry using a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid rubbing vigorously to prevent damage.
• Air Drying: After cleaning, allow the jewelry to air dry completely to prevent color fading and maintain its shape.
• Storage: Store jewelry in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent colors from fading and fabric from deteriorating.
