Review: Favordeal Jewelry

Image
Have you ever heard of online store called FavorDeal?  Favordeal.com offers different fashion jewelry, hair accessories and makeup supplies at low prices . They ship worldwide and they offer free shipping for orders over $15.    FavorDeal sent me some really pretty pieces for review. Everything was carefully packed and it took quite a lot of time to unpack them :D So firstly my absolute favorite - bangles set. This Unique Ladies' Fashion Link Bracelets with White Pearl  set costs $5.39.  Why I love this set. It contains two pearl bracelets, some silvery bracelets and golden bracelets with pendant. You can wear them all together or choose only those that suit your outfit :) Usually this kind of bracelets are bit too small for me (meaning I can´t wear them because I can´t put them on) and so I was afraid that maybe these will be small, too, but the diameter of these is about 7cm which it perfect for me :)   Next bracelet is this Old Fashioned Black Flower Bangle Bracelet...

NOTD: Fishscale nails

Hi! This time I have another bling mani for you.  For this design I used N.Nail 2.5mm Neon Glitter C37 from KKCenterHk. This glitter is perfect for this kind of design. I really like how it reflects different colors in different light. Using these glitters was very easy. I first applied 2 coats of LÓreal Color Riche nail polish in Santorini Lagoon. Then added a coat of clear polish and then added the glitter one by one. I finished my nails with one coat of INM OTD topcoat. For smooth result you might need 2 coats of top coat. And more photos of my nails :) *This micro glitter was sent to me for the review. All opinions here are my own.

Guest post: Are Natural Health and Beauty Techniques a Modern Discovery?

While natural health and beauty techniques have become widely used around the world, it’s sometimes easy to forget that they have their roots in long hold practices. Although not as sophisticated as the various therapeutic treatments that are now available, ancient alternative remedies contain many of the same ideas. Like current natural health and beauty techniques, ancient approaches rely on the same use of herbs and flowers, as well as extracts, and inform much of what we understand as the contemporary avoidance of artificial chemicals. Looking at some origins of natural and health beauty techniques, we can identify forerunners to modern treatments. Key Practices Early Egyptian and Chinese cultures made use of different extracts and naturally sourced materials in their health and beauty regimens. Notable examples included the Egyptian use of animal fats and natural dyes to design makeup, which gave rise to the common image of Egyptians with heavily lined eyes and wigs. The same a...
