Will Breastmilk Jewellery Yellow Over Time?
One of the most common questions we receive at Beyond Love Creations is whether breastmilk jewellery will yellow over time.
As breastmilk jewellery has become more popular around the world, many mothers are understandably concerned about longevity, colour changes, cracking or cloudiness. These keepsakes hold deep emotional value, and choosing a maker you trust matters.
At Beyond Love Creations we have had independent third party laboratory testing on the UV stability of our specialised material. We can proudly say that our product is non-yellowing. Your keepsake will not turn yellow.
Why Can Breastmilk Jewellery Change Colour?
Breastmilk is a natural organic substance. Without proper preservation and professional stabilisation methods, milk can deteriorate over time. The quality of the materials used in the jewellery process also plays a major role in how the final piece ages. UV resin, and cheap resins also plays a major part in this.
Environmental exposure can also affect jewellery over time, including:
- UV exposure ( not based on BLC specialised material)
- UV resin- we do not use UV cured products
- Chemicals and perfumes ( make sure these are fully absorbed into yourskin before wearing your jewellery)
- Heat and moisture
- Harsh cleaning products, especially chlorine, as this can strip and break down your precious metals over time
- Daily wear and friction, especially heavy weight lifting, this can bend or warp your piece
Our Approach at Beyond Love Creations
At Beyond Love Creations, we use quality specialised material which has been third party, laboratory tested to withstand UV and is also waterproof. Our focus is on creating high-quality pieces made to last and be treasured for years to come.
Every breastmilk keepsake is individually handcrafted with care and professionally prepared before being transformed into jewellery.
We also offer free yearly maintenance checks to help care for your precious keepsake over time.
How To Care For Breastmilk Jewellery
To help protect your keepsake jewellery, we recommend:
- Avoid chlorine as this strip's your precious metals away over time
- Remove jewellery before swimming or harsh chemical exposure- especially to avoid being lost whilst swimming
- Store safely when not being worn
- Avoid excessive impact or scratching
- Clean gently with a soft cloth, and dishwashijg liquid if needed
Your breastmilk jewellery represents a chapter of motherhood that deserves to be treasured with care.
At Beyond Love Creations, we understand these pieces are far more than jewellery — they are memories you can wear close to your heart.
