Costume jewelry has some different rules when it comes to cleaning (versus "real" jewelry).
Stay away from cleaners with alcohol, ammonia, vinegar, or any other acidics.
Avoid soap and water, because the soap will leave a dull "film" on the jewelry.
Your best bet is to use the softest toothbrush you can find to dust your pieces off.
A soft cloth also works! If you wear a piece quite a bit, clean it once a week. For pieces that you wear seldom, clean it before you put it back into your jewelry box. It will be ready for the next time you wear it.
