How to Clean & Care for Your Engagement Ring
A few simple habits keep your ring as brilliant as the day you said yes.
Your engagement ring is worn every day, so a little routine care goes a long way. Here's how to keep it sparkling and secure for a lifetime.
The easy at-home clean
Soak the ring for 20–30 minutes in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, gently brush behind the stone with a soft toothbrush, rinse, and pat dry with a lint-free cloth. Do this every couple of weeks.
Everyday habits that protect it
Take the ring off before workouts, gardening, cleaning with harsh chemicals, or swimming in chlorine. Store it in a soft pouch or box, not loose in a drawer where it can scratch or be knocked.
Check the setting periodically
Every few months, look at the prongs holding the stone. If anything feels loose or snags on fabric, have a jeweler tighten it before a stone can come loose.
Moissanite makes care easy
Moissanite is exceptionally hard and resists scratches, so it stays bright with minimal fuss. For the full routine, see our Moissanite Care Guide.
