Lava Stone & Sandalwood Amulet Bracelet: Care and How to Wear It

Quick answer

Wear your lava stone sandalwood bracelet on your non-dominant wrist for daily grounding, and care for it by keeping it dry, wiping it after wear, and using only a drop of essential oil on the lava stones when you want to refresh the scent. Avoid soaking the sandalwood or using harsh cleaners.

How to wear and care for your lava stone sandalwood bracelet

1. Choose the right wrist and fit: Wear the bracelet on your non-dominant wrist so it stays out of the way during daily tasks. Check that it slides slightly but does not hang loose; a bracelet that is too loose can catch on objects, while one that is too tight leaves marks. If you feel pressure marks after an hour, adjust the size or move it to the other wrist.
2. Put it on after lotions and perfumes: Apply any skincare products first and let them dry completely before putting on the bracelet. This prevents oils and creams from transferring onto the sandalwood and keeps the lava stones from absorbing unwanted fragrances. A quick test: if your skin still feels tacky, wait another minute before wearing.
3. Wipe it down after each wear: Use a dry, soft cloth to gently wipe the beads, removing sweat and skin oils. Do this especially after hot days or if you have been handling food. Avoid rubbing hard, which can scratch the sandalwood. Keep a microfiber cloth near where you take off the bracelet so wiping becomes a habit.
4. Clean the lava stones with a barely damp cloth: If the lava beads look dull or feel greasy, wipe them with a cloth that is barely damp—not wet—and immediately dry them with a dry cloth. Never run the bracelet under water or soak it, because the sandalwood will absorb moisture and may crack. If you see water spots on the sandalwood, dry it right away with a dry cloth and let it air out.
5. Refresh the scent with one drop of essential oil: Place a single drop of essential oil on one or two lava beads, not on the sandalwood. Let it absorb for a minute before wearing. Use mild oils like lavender or sandalwood, and avoid citrus oils that can be photosensitive. Too much oil can leave a stain on your skin or clothes, so start with less than you think you need.
6. Store it flat and dry: When not wearing it, lay the bracelet flat in a dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid hanging it on a hook, which can stretch the string over time. If you live in a humid climate, add a small silica packet to the storage box. Check the string monthly for fraying; if it looks worn, restring before it breaks.
