Please ensure that you read our care instructions before purchasing.
The most important thing to note is that our items are water safe but this does not include products and chemicals. As the jewellery is plated, it may start to fade over time but if your items come into contact with products such as soap, shampoo, moisturiser, perfume etc the plating can start to chip.
Please feel free to get your items wet but make sure to take your pieces off when you are using a product such as the ones listed above.
In more detail:
OCEAN
Wearing jewellery in the ocean is absolutely fine but it is important to know that salt water and the ocean are corrosive and can be a harsh environment for your Lion Wild jewellery. So, although your jewellery will not tarnish or turn your skin green, the gold plating can fade a lot faster in this environment and become lighter and revealing the silver underneath. Don't worry though! Not for a long time.
SHOWER
Although your pieces are water safe, the products you use in the shower are harsh on your plated jewellery. We do not recommend wearing your items in the shower because products such as shampoos, body wash, soap, moisturiser etc will wear your plating down quickly.
POOL
Swimming with Lion Wild jewellery is not recommended as you will be coming into contact with water that has chemicals like chlorine that will interact with you jewellery more dramatically than fresh water and soap.
HAND WASHING
Please make sure to remove your gold plated rings before washing your hands as the chemicals in your hand soap will drastically fade the gold colour.
