Moissanite Jewelry Care Guide: Keeping Your Pieces Sparkling

Love this article? Share it.

Moissanite is one of the most durable gemstones available — but like all fine jewelry, it benefits from regular care. With a few simple habits, your moissanite pieces will stay as brilliant as the day you got them.

⚠️ Daily Wear Tips: What to Avoid

  • Lotions & creams: Apply before putting on jewelry. Buildup dulls the stone's sparkle over time.
  • Chlorine & bleach: Remove rings before swimming in pools or using cleaning products.
  • Hairspray & perfume: Spray first, then put on your jewelry.
  • Heavy impact: While moissanite is very hard (9.25 on the Mohs scale), avoid wearing rings during heavy lifting or sports.

🧴 At-Home Cleaning: Step-by-Step

  1. Mix a few drops of mild dish soap with warm water in a small bowl.
  2. Soak your jewelry for 10–15 minutes.
  3. Gently scrub with a soft-bristle toothbrush, paying attention to the underside of the stone.
  4. Rinse thoroughly under warm running water.
  5. Pat dry with a lint-free cloth and allow to air dry completely before storing.

Tip: Clean your moissanite jewelry every 2–4 weeks for best results.

💍 Professional Cleaning

We recommend a professional cleaning once or twice a year. A jeweler can also check prong settings and ensure stones are secure — especially important for rings worn daily.

📦 Storage Best Practices

  • Store each piece separately in a soft pouch or lined jewelry box to prevent scratching.
  • Keep necklaces hung or laid flat to avoid tangling.
  • Store away from direct sunlight and humidity.

Care by Jewelry Type

💍 Rings

Rings get the most daily exposure. Clean weekly and remove before washing hands with harsh soaps or doing dishes.

💟 Earrings

Clean earring backs regularly as they accumulate oils and debris. A cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol works well for the posts.


💟 Necklaces

Necklaces can tangle easily. Store them hung up or in individual pouches. Clean the chain with a soft cloth after each wear to remove skin oils.


With just a little care, your moissanite jewelry will stay stunning for a lifetime. Explore our full collection and find your next favorite piece.
