Diamond is the most costly and hardest natural substance on the earth. Koh-I-Nor marked as the most expensive diamond in the world. Not only money but also emotional touch is associated with the diamond. Dust is all around the environment.
Every materialistic thing gets dirty, if not taken care of properly. We use a variety of cosmetics in our day-to-day life like hand lotion, hair spray, nail polish, hair dye etc. We cannot remove our engagement ring every time we use cosmetics.

Like teeth, a toothbrush can be used to clean diamonds or an engagement ring. We brush our teeth to clean the dirt that is stuck deeper inside. Brush scratch the dust, so that it gets rid of easily. The same procedure works in cleaning the engagement or diamond ring.
Attention – Use a softer brush to avoid scratches and further damage to the ring. It is recommendable to use kid’s brushes because they have small and soft bristles. Always use a fresh and separate brush to clean your diamond ring. Clean edges and clean it from the bottom because this is the place where all dust got collected or stuck.

After applying the brush, now rinse the ring under the water in the sink to clean it properly. Rub it with a gentle thumb under the flowing water.
