Since young, I was exposed to the fact that gold doesn’t tarnish and it has been prized for its beauty, resistance towards chemical attack and high workability. But, I have definitely overlooked the fact that they can be dulled over the time by the oil excreted by our skin, cosmetics, body lotions and so forth. Since necklaces were prohibited during our school days, I started to put on mine right after I graduated from my high school and have never taken off since then. My necklace still sparkles until today and I was adamant that my necklace has not dulled after so many years and I do not need any cleanser or any alike detergent.
Only until recently, when my mom brought her necklace for its hook fixing, my sister took the opportunity to clean wash her necklace. Upon touching home, when I compared mine with hers; my oh my, I have no way to defy the fact that my still-sparkling-necklace has dulled by so so much. I had been kinda planning for a trip to the goldsmith since that. But before I managed a trip to the goldsmith, my sister gifted me a bottle of jewellery cleaner from Powermax (a Cosway product) as a birthday gift and I gave that a try that very evening.
Believe it or not, my jaws went dropping and this bottle of magic liquid were truly magical! It keeps its promises as claimed on its reverse side of the bottle. The added advantages on my point of view were its quick action, causing no skin allergy to my sensitive fingers and applicable for costume jewelry too (It worked equally significant from the reviews I read/saw. I have yet tried it on my own collection. Based on my previous and my only experience with previous jewellery cleaner many years back, I have no way to clean my tarnished costume jewelleries as it was only applicable for pure gold and authentic silver). This also explains why I have never been bothered with this earlier despite numerous visits to Cosway outlets :). But, this is indeed a wonderful experience worth sharing and you can save by 50% by owning a bottle of jewellery cleaner than visiting a goldsmith for one cleansing session ;)
