Diamonds are forever, as long as you take care of them! Bridal jewelry, such as engagement rings and wedding bands are typically worm daily, and can appear like they've lost their sparkle if not cleaned on a regular basis. Lotions put film on diamonds and reduce their shininess. Don't wear diamond jewelry while doing rough work. Avoid chlorinated pools and hot tubs.
