If you’ve ever had your favourite gold necklace turn green or noticed your rings losing their shine after washing your hands, you’re not alone.
The struggle of keeping jewellery looking pristine, especially when it’s exposed to water, sweat, or everyday wear, is real. But, tarnish-free, waterproof jewellery isn’t slapped with a huge price tag anymore! Thanks to some of our favourite brands, it’s now more affordable and accessible than ever.
Tarnishing happens when the metal reacts with air, moisture, or chemicals, leading to discoloration. For gold and silver jewellery, tarnishing often means dullness, loss of shine, or that green-ish tint on your skin.
But, waterproof pieces are made with advanced materials and modern plating techniques that resist tarnishing and withstand moisture, ensuring your jewellery stays looking like new.
Whether it’s a sleek gold chain, a stack of rings, or a pair of hoops, you can now wear your favourite pieces every day without the constant worry of fading or discoloration.

Bijoux De Mimi India Droplet Necklace
Bijoux De Mimi is a brand known for its colourful designs and has become hugely popular with Gen Z. All its pieces are made using 18k PVD electroplated stainless steel, making them water-resistant and hypoallergenic. We love this Y-shaped necklace with turquoise stones that works layered with gold chains or alone as a statement piece.
