Mineralogy
Sunstone: aka “golden sunstone” “confetti sunstone”
Sunstone is a trade name for feldspar that exhibits aventurescence when light interacts with tiny plate-like mineral inclusions of hematite, goethite, or other iron oxides (even copper for Oregon sunstone). Sometimes called aventurescent feldspar. These highly reflective, flat inclusions are precisely aligned along the crystallographic axis, and this common orientation enables them to simultaneously flashy when the stone is moved under light (creating that glitter effect).
Sunstone/moonstone: Both are types of feldspar. Moonstone “adularescence”(floating moon “glow”) is usually caused by refraction of light from alternating lamellar planes (structual layers) whereas sunstone has microscopic inclusions (hematite, goethite, other iron oxides - Oregon is copper) that refract the light giving the spangled effect.

AVOID WATER & SELF CARE PRODUCTS
Avoid exposure to water (especially saltwater and chlorine), lotions, sprays, soap, etc because they can damage the elastic over time - and this can lead to snapping. Even the oils and sweat on our skin can wear out the elastic eventually.
Remove your bracelet when bathing, swimming, doing the dishes, etc. These activities can also dull the crystals.
STORAGE + CLEANING
Every bracelet comes with an organic cotton pouch for safe storage when not in use. Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause crystals to fade over time. Keep your bracelet out of reach of children and pets, as they can easily snap the elastic.
Use a soft cloth (like microfiber) to wipe off oils, dust, or dirt. Avoid soap or harsh chemicals, and just use a damp cloth if needed. Allow your crystal bracelet to dry before wearing it again.
REMOVE BEFORE ROUGH ACTIVITIES
Avoid getting your bracelet caught on things by removing it before doing activities like playing with kids or dogs, yard work, exercise, etc. You can also wear them on your non-dominant hand to reduce chances of getting caught and snapping.
GENTLE HANDLING
The elastic can snap if handled roughly. Gently roll your bracelet over your hand when putting it on or taking it off, and avoid pulling or stretching too hard.
