Every other week, I plan to share a short tip. I hope they’re helpful.
Did you know that sterling silver oxidizes naturally, on its own, over time? This is a really simple tip for those of you who have silver jewelry that has become a little bit dull.
On most of my jewelry, if I don’t do a patina, I give my silver a silky matte finish. To bring this sort of finish back to your silver, just use a nail buff. Yep, you can find these in just about any pharmacy or beauty shop, for roughly 99 cents. They usually look like a small block, sometimes in funny patterns or hot pink.
Take your nail buff, hold it securely in your dominant hand, and brush it over the surface of the silver (just as if you were buffing your nails). You’ll see the tarnish disappear, and a silky finish take its place. Use the buff as much and as often as you like – but be careful with silver that has been purposely oxidized, because the buff will remove that finish as well.
