If you’re ever going to wear earrings, it’s important to clean them before you do so. This is especially true if the earrings are made of metal, as the metal can corrode and create a mess on your ears. To clean the earrings, first remove any excess glue or adhesive that may have been holding them together. Then use a mild soap and water to clean the earrings. Be sure to dry them off completely before putting them back on.
