Polymer clay earrings have become a trendy and stylish accessory, but it’s important to consider their care and maintenance to ensure their longevity. One common question that arises is whether it’s safe to shower with polymer clay earrings.
Water and Polymer Clay
Polymer clay is a durable and water-resistant material, but excessive moisture exposure can affect its appearance and structural integrity over time. While a brief encounter with water, such as accidental splashes, is unlikely to cause immediate damage, it’s generally recommended to avoid prolonged exposure to water, especially hot water.
Recommendations
To prolong the life of your polymer clay earrings:
- Remove your earrings before showering, swimming, or engaging in activities where they might be exposed to excessive moisture.
- Store your earrings in a dry place when not in use.
- If your earrings do get wet, gently pat them dry with a soft cloth and allow them to air dry completely before storing.
By taking these precautions, you can enjoy your polymer clay earrings for a long time while maintaining their beauty and quality.
