Crystal Care Chart: Which Stones Hate Sun & Water?

Don’t ruin your favorite stones! Learn which crystals fade in the sun and which ones can’t get wet.
Not all crystals are created equal! Some are tough; some are delicate. Here’s the down-low on how to care for the specific stones in your custom bracelet.

The “Fade Easily” Crew (Avoid Direct Sun):
●Stones: Rose Quartz, Strawberry Quartz, Amethyst (light and dark), Aquamarine.
●Why: Their beautiful colors can fade and become dull if left in strong sunlight for too long.
●Care Tip: Always use moonlight or sound to cleanse these beauties.

The “Keep Dry” Crew (Avoid Soaking):
●Stones: Silver Sheen Obsidian (contains silver-like sheen that can tarnish), Green/Yellow Rutilated Quartz (the rutile inclusions can be sensitive).
●Why: Water, especially saltwater, can damage the luster or cause internal rust over time.
●Care Tip: A quick wipe with a damp cloth is okay, but no showers or swimming!

The “Pretty Tough” Crew:
●Stones: Clear Quartz, Citrine, Smoky Quartz.
●Why: These are generally more stable, but still, be kind to them! Avoid harsh chemicals.
