If you wear rings/earrings for long periods of time, take them out right now and look at them. Chances are, they're covered with skin oil, cosmetics, shampoo, soap and unidentifiable gunk. The easiest way to clean rings/earrings is with solution of water and mild liquid detergent. A soft bristled brush can loosen dirt and a soft, lint-free cloth should be used for drying.

Dirty jewelry and diamonds in particular are a pet peeve of mine.Great advice.

 Here the best way is to gold plate yellow gold jewellery since the heat will remove the oils, grime etc. and the new lustrous coat will give your jewellery a brand new look. Here in The Philippines gold plating for a 3 grams of jewellery starts at 25 pesos or 56 cents US. Gold plating also include cleaning for the price of one.

 My Mother does not know how to clean her jewellery so everytime we meet I always bring a toothbrush and clean her jewellery and I always complain. I am like that Bree of Desperate Housewives who can't resist cleaning anything dirty she sees.

 We have to remember that wearing dirty jewellery is like wearing dirty clothes or not taking a bath. And since jewellery are usually more expensive than our clothes they need more attention and respect. And bcoz our body is a temple of God then we need to keep it clean.

Absolutely Right!
I have checked my golden earrings and i found that they were looking very dull.Thanks for your tips.
