Do you have a household product that really shines up costume jewelry?

I've bought liquids that smelled to high heaven and had to be scrubbed in for a minimal look of clean.
I've bought special wipes that can't get in the groves of necklace chains.

I just don't know what I can try next? I know this type of jewelry won't last forever but I have some pieces and I'd like to wear them more than just 1 year. But after the 1 year mark and they are tarnished I just chuck them now figuring I can't get them clean.

Also, if you have a tip on cleaning costume jewelry with fake pearls I'd appreciate it. All the cleaners and wipes I've seen say not to use on these, I imagine it'd wipe the shiny finish off.

Thanks in advance!
