How do you remove cigarette smoke from jewelry?
How do you remove cigarette smoke from jewelry? Does anyone know how to without making the jewelry smell like the cleaner? The jewelry is costume jewelry made from pot metal and alloys not gold or silver so the metal is more porous and delicate.
I don't smoke. I bought this lot off Ebay and I don't want to return it if there is a way to clean it. So I you have good experience with this please tell me.
I have this question listed three times and someone mentioned baking soda. So I have buried my jewelry in baking soda since last night. I will check and let everyone know if this works.

I'm currently having the same problem (except I purchased mine on etsy! :D). I was told to wrap the jewelry in a dryer sheet and place it in a plastic bag. not sure how long to leave it in - I've had my necklace wrapped for a few hours and it seems to have helped a little already.

I'd think it would be a bad idea to smoke cigs while having an infected lip piercing. You don't want the tar or anything in cigarettes to get in the piercing and further infect it. Although chances are your piercing is just irritated, not infected.

try out some jewelry cleaner lotions or go to the jewelry shop, hopefully they may suggest you some way :-)
