Since breastmilk is an organic substance, a change in color over time cannot be 100% ruled out. However, we work with high-quality resins that are extra UV protected to provide the longest possible color fidelity. Please note that the final color of your beads will not be known until 7 – 10 days after production. During this time, the color of the pearl may still change slightly. However, this is not yellowing but due to the hardening of the materials.

When you’re not wearing your jewelry, it’s best to store it in an open box. At the same time, the jewelry should not be exposed to direct sunlight or complete darkness (such as in a closet). Both can lead to yellowing.

The inclusion of tiny bubbles cannot be avoided 100%. This is not a sign of low quality. However, the number of bubbles can be significantly reduced if you work precisely according to our instructions.

If the color of your beads is uneven, you have not mixed the resin, hardener, and mother’s milk well enough into a uniform mass. Now only one thing helps: Do it again and do it better this time!

No problem! You can reuse the silicone mold(s), the drill, and the dispensing wood. You can find the other accessories for making more beads in the Refill Packs in our store.

To enjoy your breast milk jewelry for as long as possible, you should follow these care instructions:

• Protect your jewelry from direct sunlight when you are not wearing it.
• If possible, avoid (salt) water contact (also sweat) with the jewelry.
• Ensure that your jewelry does not come into contact with chemicals, corrosive, or other aggressive substances.
• Use only a microfiber or cotton cloth for cleaning.
