EMBRACED ORIGINALITY WITH DANISH(1976) JEWELERY DESIGN FROM TROLLBEADS


Hi gorgeous, 

Jewelries have been part of the fashion and style of every trends and culture worn by both gender.  Introducing Danish Jewelry (1976) Trollbeads with beautiful handcrafted design.





Trollbeads

Origins
The story of Trollbeads began in Copenhagen, Denmark in 1976, when Soren “Silversmith” Nielsen created the first Trollbead, Faces. The sterling silver bead, faces, is named for the no less than 6 faces that decorate it. Soren “Silversmith” Nielsen sold the Faces Bead from his father Svend Nielsen’s jewelry shop in Central Copenhagen. The trending fashion at the time of Trollbeads creation was to wear a single silver bead on a leather cord necklace. Instead of hanging the bead from an eyelet, Nielsen placed an opening through the center of the bead. Later his sister, Lise Aagaard, began to place the beads on silver bracelets. 

Lise Aagaard, the founder of Trollbeads, went on to open her own jewelry store. One day a customer asked to place more than one bead on her bracelet. The storekeeper was surprised but added another bead to the customer’s bracelet. This is how the bead-on-bracelet jewelry concept was born. 

From the suggestion of one customer, the Trollbeads brand and adventure were created. In cooperation with customers and with their wishes in mind, the collection grew. Today Trollbeads can be found in over 400 cities worldwide.

Here are some details that one might be interested in making decision for your choice of jewelries from Pandora, Thomas Sabo and Trollbeads.

Hi beautiful,

Life is not a bed of roses but now you can own the newest beautiful lip product containing rose extract, look like rose, smell like rose and taste like rose from The Yeon.  

The Yeon is a Korean company that makes products from natural and effective ingredients.

Honestly, I have been loving these beauties so here is the review on The Yeon Rosy Lips in rose petal, rose buds and dried rose.

The Yeon Rosy Lips comes in beautiful packaging, the shape of beautiful made rose.  The rose is the size of and the inside pot is the .  The rose is great sturdy plastic and you can actually even hang as it is key chain which is handy.

It comes in three beautiful rose colour.  Rose is a trendy fashionable colour and many Kpop stars are wearing on their lip.  The three colours are rose petal, rose buds and dried rose.

rose petal(S102)- a deep true red
rose buds(S101)- orange red
dried rose(S501)- muted peach with red undertone

I really love all the colours which is suitable for lip, eyes and cheek.  The lip product is really creamy, pigmented, light and not transferable to cup.  I tried using it on my cheeks as blusher and it lasted the whole day without fading off.  One would need to apply on dry lip and pat it until the colour is matte or powdery.  As lip product, the colour does come out once I eat.  Without eating, the colour lasted 8hours without fading at all.

The Yeon Rosy Lips smell like rose with rose extract in it.  Given the affordable price and the pigment for such nice versatile product, I think this should get more love as it is a great alternative of the popular cheek blush.

Overall, The Yeon Rosy Lips is a nice aesthetically pleasing beautiful rose product that does not transfer, has great pigmented colour, texture and are made from natural ingredients.  The scent of rose is a really nice touch to it all.

There are some fancy ingredients in there which is the epitome of richness such as gold (1ppm) and pearl extract.  😃  The yellow is because of colouring while the dot shine is from the gold.

The mask sheet is folded into two inside the packet.  It is separated into two which makes it fit my face really well.  Application is easier when you apply the sheet mask on the face first before removing the top lining.  Be careful as it is a jelly type and I accidentally rip the top because I was too rough taking it out of the packet.

ID.AZ Dermastic Golden Fit Mask is a hydrogel which stick to my face well but it is not as sticky as the one that I can jump on a trampoline and it will be still be stuck on my face.  It is easy to remove and it didn't shrink to a thin layer even when I was wearing it for 3 hours.

ID.AZ Dermastic Golden Fit Mask has light floral scent.

It does hydrated my skin well without any stickiness, brighten my skin and help to plump up my skin.


Overall, I would recommend ID.AZ Dermastic Golden Fit Mask to someone who likes hydrogel sheet mask, after skincare procedures, love hydration, anti ageing sheet mask, being extra and just want to feel fancy like Queen of Nile.

REVIEW ON SHAPEE ARM SHAPER LONG SLEEVES& SHAPEE WAIST SHAPER

Hi gorgeous,

It is hard to get everything proportion especially our limbs and our body.  Most of the time, our arms or our waist are not looking great even with certain clothing.  So, we use some clothing to help shape the part of the body for better looking shape.

Here is a review on affordable, Shapee arm shaper long sleeve and Shapee Waist Shaper.

Shapee is a brand that produces shapewear to sculpt the body.  Their shapewear are made with nylon & spandex, utilizing Japan’s special 3D weaving techniques to help achieve optimal results.  The shapewear also retains heat, creates a 3D micro massage effect on the body which reduces cellulite and increase metabolism rate.

Shapee arm shaper long sleeves helps to shapes the full arm, and my arm does look slimmer.  I wore it underclothing and it is still pretty comfortable.  It is not too tight for me and does not go undone when I wear it to bed.  It reduces unwanted upper arm flab while providing a smoothing and compression effect,  firm control and shaping in full arm.  The textured and stretchable material with a cut out for thumbs does not leave marks on my arms even when I wear it for 7 hours.

Shapee Waist Shaper is black tube with comfortable stretchable material to hide the bulges of love handles and muffin top.  It is comfortable without the uncomfortable hooks and wires.  My waist do look smaller and more curvy.  One use it to look stunning in dress for special occasions and for smaller waist.


It is advisable to wear the shapewear continuously for 8 to 12 weeks with min. 5 hours per day to see the difference. For best results, shapewear should be worn in conjunction with proper diet and exercise.

Overal, Shapee arm shaper long sleeve and Shapee Waist Shaper are both great comfortable shaping wear that helps to sculpt the arms and body in additional to taking care of your diet and do exercise.  After all, don't blame the shapewear not working if one only relies for it to magically turn your body into supermodel overnight.

Shapee Waist Shaper RM65
