✨ What Is Anti-Tarnish Jewellery?

Anti-tarnish jewellery is designed to resist oxidation, moisture, and corrosion — meaning it stays shiny and doesn’t turn black or green.

Perfect for:

  • Daily wear

  • Gifting

  • Sensitive skin

  • Busy lifestyles

At ELLDESIGNS, our pieces are waterproof, sweatproof, and designed to last.

🧪 How Does It Work?

Tarnishing happens when metals (especially brass, copper, or silver) react with:

  • Moisture

  • Oxygen (air)

  • Sweat or lotions

This causes oxidation — turning jewellery black or green.

Our Solution at ELLDESIGNS:

We apply a special anti-tarnish coating that:

  • Seals out moisture

  • Protects the surface

  • Maintains the original shine

  • Keeps your skin stain-free

💧 Is It Really Waterproof?

Yes. Our jewellery is:

  • Safe for showers and handwashing

  • Sweat-resistant — great for humid weather

  • Long-lasting without fading

💡 Pro Tip: Avoid harsh chemicals or scrubbing to extend the life of your pieces.
