Care Instructions
All Beyond Love Creations handmade stones have been through laboratory testing to ensure they are waterproof & won't go yellow.
At Beyond Love Creations we aren't just claiming our stones are waterproof and non-yellowing. To ensure our product is great quality, we have had several third-party independent laboratory tests conducted. Our material is classified by Australian waterproofing standards, this means our material could actually be used to waterproof kitchens and bathrooms. Our product meets the rigid Australian waterproofing standards and holds a classification code. A very first for the keepsake industry.
We DO NOT use UV resin products, these are known to soften and warp over time. We have chosen resin as a medium as it provides such a versatile opportunity to personalise your keepsake to uniquely match you. We do not disclose our product details.
Our new resin material (that your keepsake is made of) is BPA free, food safe and is heat resistant up to 110 degrees- Your keepsakes will not yellow or be effected by UV light, use of new materials since October 14th, 2024
What should you avoid to ensure your keepsakes look their best?
ALL Jewellery (not just keepsake jewellery), should be treated with care, we encourage you to make fair and best judgement with our recomendations as it is impossible to list all possibilities.
Please ensure all body lotions, creams and perfumes are absorbed into your skin before wearing your keepsakes.
Hair dye, tanning solutions and colourants such as tumeric can potentially cause your stone to discolour or dull, please remove when using these products.
Detergents- Yes, you can wash your hands, shower and bathe with your pieces on.
Bleach- Whilst our product has been tested with bleach absorption on our stone material and passed with the Australian standards. We recommend taking off your precious keepsakes as bleach can weaken precious metals over time.
Water- Your keepsake can be worn in freshwater & salt water, salt water can cause your silver to tarnish to the precious metal due to the natural salts & sulphur in the air, this tarnish can be removed with the polishing cloth provided.
UV light- Our product was immersed in over 50°C, UV radiated light over a duration of time. Our samples did not turn yellow & remained intact. Whilst our product is 100% UV stable, we cannot guarantee the colour fastness of your inclusions, such as fabric or flowers.
Chlorine- Please ensure you remove your keepsake when entering chlorinated pools, this can cause your precious metal to weaken over time & cause potential stone dulling.
Tarnish- Sterling silver can tarnish. The more you wear your jewellery, the less tarnishing. However, this can be easily removed with the polishing cloth we provide.
Physical activities & Saunas
To avoid damaging or potentially losing your precious keepsake, we recommend you remove your jewellery before doing physical activities especially lifting heavy weights or causing compression to the piece.
Please remove when wearing in hot tubs or saunas to avoid dulling of stones, chlorine damage to your precious metal and potential loss.
When not wearing your jewellery
When not in use, store in a cool, dark place in the original packaging if possible.
Leather Bracelet Care Guide
We want your leather bracelet to last you many years, however if you have not owned a leather bracelet before you may not be familiar with how to care for one. Here are some care tips for keeping it in good condition.
Do not allow the leather to get wet. The most common cause of damage to leather bracelets is water damage. Always remove your bracelet for showering, swimming, washing up, bathing the kids or the dog etc. Signs of water damage include the bracelet becoming sticky/tacky to touch, eventually the braided strands will become weak and break.
Clean your bracelet after each wear and condition it every 2-3 months. The bracelet should be wiped clean with a dry or very slightly damp cloth, to remove any dirt, sweat and skin oils that could damage it. Do not allow the bracelet to become wet and if you do use a damp cloth make sure the band is fully air dried before putting it back on, never use heat to dry leather. Every 2-3 months use a specialist leather cleaner and conditioner to keep your bracelet in the best possible condition. Do not use alcohol wipes, baby wipes, bleach or soaps on your natural leather. heavy UV light can cause leather to fade over time
