One of the most common questions we get is, “How long does a silicone ring last?”
The short answer is: They can last for years, but it depends.
Here is our complete care guide on how to make your silicone ring last for years instead of months:
-
Avoid extreme stretch when you put the ring on and take it off: Gently slide or “roll” the ring onto your finger. A big no no is pulling and stretching the ring over the knuckles. This is the number one most important tip!
-
Find your best fit: A ring that is too loose on your finger is more prone to being tugged or snagged, causing premature stretching. Find a size that is your most snug and comfortable fit.
-
Gentle Wash: Wash your silicone ring with mild soap and water. Skip harsh chemicals and abrasive materials, as they could damage your ring. It is best to avoid prolonged contact (or any contact) with alcohol-based cleaners and hand sanitizers too.
-
Store it smartly: When you're not wearing your ring, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. This will help keep it from warping or changing color.
-
Avoid extreme conditions: Silicone is a tough material, but it's still best to avoid exposing it to extreme heat or harsh chemicals. So, if you work with chemicals or in a high-heat environment, make sure to take off your ring.
By following these tips, your silicone rings will last you for years to come!
