Re: What Costume Jewelry Does NOT Tarnish?

I used to buy Monet or Napier earrings in the department store and they would rarely, if ever, tarnish. 

 

I can no longer find these two brands.

 

Has anyone had any experience with a nice costume brand that does not tarnish?  

 

TIA

Sunshine, it depends on many things .....  which metals comprise the piece, how much acid in your skin, etc etc.  

 

In the past, I've found it helpful to coat the backside of somepieces with clear nail polish.  I've read that there's a clear plastic spray at craft stores that can also coat jewelry, but I have no knowledge of this product.
