Just mix up a little dishwashing liquid in a bowl with some warm water, then grab an old toothbrush, ER Physician Dr. Travis Stork explains.
He’s got a pair of diamond stud earrings on hand to demonstrate. They’re dull and dirty before he goes to work. “Make it bling, Dr. Travis. Make it bling!” TV personality Arthel Neville urges. A quick dip in the soapy mixture and a gentle scrub with the toothbrush, and the diamonds sparkle like new!
This trick is fabulous for your fine jewelry, but some costume pieces may lose their finish if exposed to soapy water.
