Avoid the ring on the beach or at the pool
Never wear the engagement ring when on the beach and even in a swimming pool, as both salt and chlorine are not good for the ring. Cold water may shrink your fingers, and your ring may slip in the water.
Get the ring insured
It’s the most crucial thing to be done as soon as possible as it will not lead to any monetary loss in case the engagement ring is damaged, lost, or stolen.
Don’t sport your engagement ring to the gym or shower.
It’s good to keep the ring at home when you hit the gym because heavy weight lifting and workouts can curve the ring, loosen the diamonds or even break the ring.
Leave it out before bath because the shine of the metal and the diamond may get dull over time. It’s better to remove your ring before sleeping as well.
Ring cleaning at home and at the jeweller
Cleansing the ring at home as frequently as possible can be a good to keep the ring shining. Wash it with lukewarm water and a gentle brush. Immerse the ring in lukewarm for a some minutes before cleaning it. Professional cleaning at a jeweler two times in a year can be a good idea because deep cleaning takes away oils and dust, which makes your special ring dull.
