The DAHAB Care Guide
Keep Your DAHAB Pieces Beautiful for Longer
Artificial jewelry deserves thoughtful care. Follow these simple steps to protect the shine, stones, and finish of your favorite DAHAB pieces.
A Little Thought Goes a Long Way
Why Jewelry Care Matters
DAHAB jewelry is designed to add effortless elegance to your everyday looks, festive outfits, and special occasions. Like all plated and fashion jewelry, its finish stays best when protected from moisture, perfume, sweat, and rough handling.
Pakistan’s humidity, especially during summer and monsoon months, can speed up tarnishing and dull the polish of artificial jewelry. A few small habits can make a major difference in how long your pieces retain their original shine.
The Golden Rule
Make This Your Ritual
Put your jewelry on last.
Take it off first.
Apply perfume, lotion, hairspray, and makeup before wearing your DAHAB jewelry. Chemicals in beauty products can react with metal plating and cause discoloration over time.
Your Everyday Routine
Daily Care, Made Simple
A few mindful habits after every wear can help preserve the finish of your favorite pieces.
Keep It Dry
Avoid wearing jewelry while showering, swimming, washing dishes, or exercising.
Avoid Chemicals
Keep pieces away from perfume, body spray, moisturizer, sunscreen, and cleaning products.
Remove Before Sleeping
Remove jewelry before bed to prevent bending, tangling, and damage from sweat.
Wipe After Wearing
Gently wipe each piece with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to remove skin oils and moisture.
Handle Gently
Do not pull chains, tug pendants, or force clasps closed.
Store With Care
Put your jewelry away only when it is completely dry, keeping each piece separate from the others.
These steps help remove skin oils and moisture that can gradually affect the plating and stones.
Gentle Is Better
How to Clean DAHAB Jewelry
Clean your pieces gently. Avoid harsh products and unnecessary soaking, especially when jewelry features stones, pearls, adhesives, or delicate finishes.
Regular Cleaning
- Use a soft microfiber or cotton cloth.
- Gently wipe the metal, stones, and pearls.
- Store the piece only after it is completely dry.
Deeper Cleaning
- Mix a small amount of mild liquid soap with lukewarm water.
- Dip a soft cloth into the solution—do not soak the jewelry.
- Clean gently, especially around stone settings.
- Wipe immediately with a clean damp cloth.
- Pat dry with a soft towel and leave it to air-dry fully.
Protect Your Favorites
How to Store Your Jewelry
Store each DAHAB piece separately in a soft pouch, zip-lock bag, or lined jewelry box. This prevents chains from tangling and protects polished surfaces from scratches.
- Keep jewelry in a cool, dry place.
- Avoid bathrooms, kitchens, and windowsills where heat, steam, and sunlight are common.
- Add a silica gel packet or anti-tarnish strip to your jewelry box, particularly during humid weather.
- Keep necklaces fastened to reduce tangling.
- Store earrings in pairs and keep delicate sets in individual compartments.
For Your Special Moments
Wedding & Eid Care
Pakistani wedding and festive jewelry often includes detailed stones, pearls, kundan-style work, and layered designs. These pieces look stunning but need extra care.
- Wear heavy sets only after makeup, hairstyle, and perfume are complete.
- Avoid spraying fragrance directly on necklaces, jhumkas, or maang tikkas.
- Remove jewelry before changing clothes to prevent catching on fabric or embroidery.
- Clean pieces gently after each event.
- Store bridal and festive sets individually, preferably in the original DAHAB packaging or a soft pouch.
This is especially important because brides and festive shoppers often expect artificial jewelry to remain presentable across multiple functions and occasions.
Beauty on the Go
Travel With Care
When travelling, use a compact jewelry case with separate sections. Keep pieces dry before packing, and avoid leaving jewelry in hot cars or humid hotel bathrooms.
For long trips, place a silica gel packet in your jewelry pouch. This is particularly useful when moving between humid cities and cooler northern areas.
Every Detail Matters
Care for Every Finish
Different materials need slightly different care. When in doubt, choose the gentlest cleaning method.
Gold-Plated Pieces
Wipe after every wear; keep away from water and perfume.
Stone-Studded Jewelry
Clean gently around settings; avoid dropping or applying pressure.
Pearl-Style Jewelry
Wipe with a dry, soft cloth; never soak in water.
Beaded Jewelry
Avoid pulling the thread; keep flat while storing.
Enamel or Resin Pieces
Wipe only with a dry cloth; avoid heat and chemicals.
All Your Favorites
Handle gently and store separately to help maintain their finish.
Artificial jewelry may include brass, alloy, glass, beads, synthetic stones, and plated coatings, so gentle handling is essential for long-lasting shine.
