Caring instructions for your gemz

Before we ship each Nellzjewlz bracelet, we cleanse and recharge the bracelet so it is ready for you to use for healing, manifestation or just style.

Here are a few tips on caring for your bracelets so you can keep them looking beautiful and benefit from their healing properties as long as possible.

Your healing gemstone jewelry is made with natural gemstones and is a hand-made product. Lotions, harsh soaps, and even sweat can create build up between the gemstones and metal spacer beads and tags. In addition to that gemstones can absorb the negative energy surrounding them so it is important that you keep them clean, cleansed, and recharged.

Cleaning

  • Silver can tarnish quite easily, leaving it looking black and dirty.  To ensure that your silver is kept shiny it can be polished gently with a jewelry cloth, or you can use a standard silver polish.
  • A soft cloth can be used to wipe over all your gemstones.  As some gemstones are more sensitive to getting wet than others, it is always better to keep them dry as much as possible.
  • Some crystals are perfectly safe to cleanse in water, however there are many that are not. Crystals that are very soft tend to scratch or flake easily, whilst others contain metals and/or toxins, causing them to rust or become toxic. The following, more common crystals, are considered safe to cleanse in water:

Agate, Amethyst, Aventurine, Citrine, Red Jasper, Rose Quartz, Smokey Quartz, Snow Quartz, Tiger Eye,Clear Quartz

Cleansing

Natural gemstones and crystals absorb your negative energy and the energies surrounding them. Therefore, it is important that you cleanse your jewelry on a regular basis. There are different ways to do this and they all work well.

Here are three simple ways we cleanse the bracelets before we ship them out to you and you can use the same methods at home:

  • Moonlight. Leave your jewelry under the (full moon) moonlight for about 6 hours. Ideally leave them on earth or a natural surface where they can be grounded.

  • Smudging. You can also use the smoke of white sage to cleanse your bracelets from any negative or stagnate energy.

  • Selenite Crystal. If you have a selenite slab at home or any large crystal cluster, you can lay your bracelet on top to cleanse it. Selenite has the ability to eliminate negative and stagnant energy and to act as an amplifier of the energy of the other crystals.
