Does Moissanite get cloudy over time?
...and how to keep your Moissanite ring in tip-top shape.
Two of the main draw factors of Moissanite are its clarity and sheer brilliance. So, with this taken into account - if Moissanite does indeed get cloudy, is it even worth buying? Well, today, we're going to reveal all, and explore the truth behind some concerns and questions that we're often asked. Let's jump in.
Moissanite's resistance to cloudiness
Thanks to its unique properties, it’s highly resistant to cloudiness, ensuring that its sparkle stays strong over time and does not turn cloudy. With a refractive index higher than that of a natural diamond, moissanite offers a fiery brilliance that’s hard to match.
Unlike other gemstones, moissanite is much, much less likely to become cloudy due to everyday wear, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a durable and dazzling piece of jewelry. With proper care, your moissanite ring will continue to shine brightly for a lifetime.
Keeping your Moissanite jewelery shiny
While moissanite itself doesn’t get cloudy, dirt and oils can accumulate over time, dulling its appearance. The good news? Cleaning your moissanite ring is a breeze!
A little warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft brush are all you need to restore its shine. Just gently scrub your ring, rinse it off, and pat it dry with a soft cloth. If you can get into the habit of regular cleaning, it'll ensure that your moissanite ring stays as brilliant as the day you bought it...
