LovePray Essential Oil Diffuser Bracelets

August 6, 2017 · Leave a Comment

 

Aromatherapy is a powerful way to impact the senses. Essential oils can calm or invigorate, uplift a mood or enhance mental clarity and concentration. Essentials Oils are easily enjoyed from home with the use of diffusers, but wouldn’t it be helpful to harness the power of essential oils when away from home such as at school, when traveling, exercising, or during the work day? Wish you could carry the benefits of essential oils with you wherever you go? You can with LovePray Essential Oil Diffuser Bracelets.

LovePray Essential Oil Diffuser Bracelet with genuine Gemstone and lava beads are beautiful, ethical and functional

ABOUT LOVEPRAY ESSENTIAL OIL DIFFUSER BRACELETS

LovePray Essential Oil Diffuser Bracelets are made with genuine gemstones and lava beads to diffuse the essential oils of your choice throughout the day.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The Lava beads are porous and thereby retain and slowly diffuse any added essential oils. They last throughout the day without leaking or staining clothing or other jewelry. Get personal aromatherapy wherever you go from an attractive, intricate piece of jewelry.

Close up of the beautiful lava beads, love the natural purple and green peacock iridescence in the light!  The porous beads hold essential oils all day.  As seen here on the Rose Quartz bracelet.

Lava beads on the Dalmatian Jasper bracelet have a beautiful onyx textured finish and compliment the gemstone variegation, and the metals both secure and set off the colors and textures

APPEARANCE

LovePray Essential Oil Diffuser Bracelets are well made and are attractive pieces, each with a unique artisan style. They come in several highly versatile colors and varieties of gemstones to mix and match with your wardrobe. Gemstone choices include colorful and vibrant Onyx, Amethyst, Jasper, Tiger’s Eye, Amazonite, Rose Quartz, Mookalite, Sunstone, Rose Crystal, Howlite, and Damalatian Jasper (black and white spotted). The bracelets are versatile pieces that go with both casual and dressier outfits.

These LovePray Essential Oil Diffuser Bracelets enable having a custom essential oil blend, or a natural, simple scent by providing the power of essential oils on the go.

ADVANTAGES OVER APPLYING A SCENT DIRECTLY TO THE SKIN

Oils applied directly to the skin can stain clothing and may cause an allergic reaction. You may also at times be in a scent-free zone, such as some work environments or doctors offices, so the ability to remove your diffusing bracelet as needed is a way to still wear a scent even if you must briefly be in a scent free environment. Lastly, the oils’ scent being diffused on the lava beads outlasts direct skin contact, diffusing just a drop or two of oil evenly throughout the day.

HOW TO INFUSE THE BRACELETS

Apply the essential oil or a blend of oils directly to the lava beads. I found the beads to hold the scent and have impressive essential oil diffusing properties for several hours. Only a drop or two is needed to last throughout the day. Once the scent dissipates, a different oil can be used the next day if desired.

Add a drop of the essential oil or oils of your choice to any lava bead for diffused essential oil benefits that last all day!

OUR EXPERIENCE WEARING LOVEPRAY ESSENTIAL OIL DIFFUSER BRACELETS & SOME OILS WE TRIED

Some ideas we found useful for using these bracelets include:

EXERCISE: Walking, Yoga, Pilates class

Grapefruit essential oil is both stimulating and uplifting. Don’t feel like going to the gym or can’t relax enough to concentrate on your form or to get a good stretch? Exercises such as Yoga, Pilates, and stretching are enhanced by the uplifting scent of Grapefruit Oil. Grapefruit also enhances concentration. BONUS: The scent of Grapefruit makes people perceive you as younger than you actually are.

SCHOOL OR LEARNING, TAKING AN EXAM

Peppermint Oil infused on the LovePray Essential Oil Diffuser Bracelets is invigorating and aids with mental clarity. It’s beneficial when studying, or concentrating on a project or school exam. Studying at the library or learning a new skill? Try Rosemary essential oil on your bracelet. Diffusing Rosemary Oil can also be helpful, it is reputed to help students concentrate while doing their homework or learning.

Diffuse Peppermint for concentration, clarity and to repel bugs

A PRESENTATION, LOOMING DEADLINE OR OTHER NERVE-RACKING WORK EVENT

Rosemary Essential Oil is a calming oil that helps with nervousness and fatigue, yet it still improves mental clarity, especially when under stress, like during a presentation or tense staff meeting or when one is overworked and facing a looming deadline.

Use just a drop of Rosemary Essential Oil on the LovePray Essential Oil Diffuser Bracelets for stress

COPING WITH A DRY OFFICE OR ALLERGY SEASON

Does your office or classroom have forced air heating or air conditioning that makes the environment very dry? Try applying Eucalyptus essential oil to the LovePray bracelet for combatting overly dry offices, especially during allergy season, or when recovering from a cold.

Diffuse Eucalyptus on the bracelet during allergy season or in dry environments

NATURAL BUG DETERRENTS

Wedding season is here, and while outdoor receptions and ceremonies at sunset are picturesque, they are also bug-ridden. Don’t want to wear a chemical-filled, foul-smelling bug spray to a wedding, al fresco dinner party, or picnic? I found this to be a perfect time for a LovePray Essential Oil bracelet because it’s a pretty way to keep the bugs away! Tea Tree Oil deters bugs and ticks and is useful for camping, hikes, and picnics when bug spray is not an option. Peppermint Oil also deters bugs, as does lemongrass. Citronella oil is also highly effective.

My bracelet diffused with Peppermint Oil saved me from the bugs at a recent outdoor wedding!

My pretty LovePray diffuser bracelet diffused with Peppermint Oil saved me from the bugs biting me at a recent outdoor wedding! I love not smelling having to smell like bug spray at a formal event!

CURBING THE MUNCHIES AT A RESTAURANT

Going out to eat with friends, you want to be social but not completely ruin your diet? Try Peppermint Oil, Grapefruit or Lavender on your LovePray Essential Oil Diffuser bracelet to curb excessive over-eating. TIP: Discretely directly inhale the scent of the infused beads immediately before reading the menu and ordering for an extra boost of essential oil inspired self-control.

Lavender Essential Oil helps curb the munchies

BUILD A SIGNATURE SCENT

Use a single scent such as Lemon, which is invigorating, smells clean and is considered a universally pleasing, or blend a few oils together for your own signature scent. What is your favorite essential oil combination?

Distinctive Jewelry Curation: ARTDOU Pearl and Lotus Leaf Pendant Necklace

July 8, 2017 · Leave a Comment

Do you enjoy wearing a piece of jewelry that is distinctive and modern but still has an overall classic look? Are you looking for a unique, artisan piece of jewelry for yourself or as a gift? Consider a handcrafted piece from ARTDOU, such as this Pearl and Lotus Leaf Pendant Necklace.

ABOUT THE ARTDOU PEARL AND LOTUS LEAF NECKLACE

The ARTDOU Pearl and Lotus Leaf Pendant Necklace is ideal for those who curate elegant, high-quality pieces for their jewelry collection, or for a friend, sister, mother or bridesmaid who finds inspiration from nature-themed elements.

PREMIUM .925 STERLING SILVER

This distinctive pendant necklace is an elegant piece, created with attention to detail. Made entirely of pure premium .925 sterling silver and adorned with a natural pearl, the hypoallergenic necklace is completely lead-free, nickel-free, Cadmium-free, so it can be worn even by those with sensitive skin.

The focal piece is a lotus leaf of a handcrafted, textured, rough silver and accented with a small natural and smooth pearl. The combination of the two textures has a modern and clean vibe but a classic and feminine feel at the same time. The focal piece itself is about 3/4 of an inch high and a little more than half and inch wide.

Pendant Closeup

Overall, the piece is delicate in appearance but noticeable to the discerning eye. When I wear it, it doesn’t scream for attention but frequently, after a few minutes of talking to someone, they often comment on the necklace and want to take a closer look. I like having a unique piece like this that doesn’t look the same as what everyone else is wearing, but is not outlandish and still looks appropriate for various occasions.

Despite appearing delicate and feminine, it is a durable, solid piece that is highly resistant to damage or wear. I particularly like that this piece not only has a focal piece of quality materials and construction but that the 18″ chain is also of high-quality.

The chain is well made and is also attractive 925 sterling silver

The spring closure clasp is solid and has about an inch of adjustable chain for an extra drop in length if desired.

GIFT BOX PRESENTATION

This easy to care for necklace comes in an attractive, velvet lined gift box that is sturdy enough to be suitable for permanent storage. It has the ARTDOU logo on the top of the hinged box, and an attractive corner gift bow. The gift box comes in a white cardboard sleeve over the box and is well wrapped in plastic overwrap so the gift box arrives in giftable condition without damage.

The necklace also comes with a small envelope containing a silver polishing cloth to keep the pendant necklace tarnish free for years to come.

ABOUT ARTDOU HANDCRAFTED JEWELRY

I particularly like that ARTDOU jewelry successfully blends the materials of classic designs into clean, modern yet original and detailed designs that have an artisan flare but are elegant enough to be worn to formal events such as a wedding or dressy occasion, but the pieces are still simple and clean enough to also work as an everyday signature jewelry piece.

Lovely natural pearl color comes in various pinkish hues

Lovely natural pearl color comes in various pinkish hues

Also noteworthy is the use of a single lustrous and natural pearl. Designing the necklace with a pearl as an elegant accent is feminine without being stuffy, too prim, common, dull or old-lady-ish. There is a clean modern aesthetic to the piece incorporating natural motifs with classic elements like a pearl on an artisan crafted leaf or flower.

 

Pearl and .925 Sterling Silver

CONCLUSION

A lovely gift for someone who likes to combine modern and classic styles with a feminine and natural appeal, this high-quality piece makes a thoughtful gift that will be stylish and last for years to come.

DISTINCTIVE WORK STYLE: Boojee Beads Pastel Party Chain Fashion Lanyard

June 12, 2017 · Leave a Comment

Ever have the perfect outfit planned for work, a seminar or a conference that is ruined by having to wear a badge or nametag? How about those photo ID lanyards, typically made of that plastic-y bungee cord woven material that looks like it belongs at an amusement park? Consider instead a unique, professional, attractive yet sturdier option of a Boojee Beads Chain Fashion Lanyard.

Boojee Beads Lanyard matches many colors in my spring and summer work wardrobe

AWKWARD ID OPTIONS

Many of us go to conferences and symposiums that require some ID or name tag, which is frequently supposed to be pinned to our clothing, which tends to leave a mark or tiny pin hole. Even though everyone else at the conference is wearing them, a lanyard or lapel badge tends to be uncomfortable and cumbersome.

Many large campus work settings such as hospitals require displaying photo IDs at all times to gain access through secure doorways, requiring that some sort of lanyard is worn during work hours.

BOOJEE BEADS LANYARDS

Boojee Beads makes attractive lanyards that are styled like necklaces with attractive beads in various shapes and colors. We like the Boojee Beads Pastel Party Chain Fashion Lanyard because it has so many pretty colors that coordinate with spring and summer colors. If you tend to wear semi-precious stone rings, bracelets, earrings or other jewelry, the Boojee Beads Pastel Party Lanyard will coordinate with other gem and stone jewelry to make your ID less imposing on your general fashion style.

BooJee Beads Lanyard

ABOUT THE BOOJEE BEADS PASTEL PARTY CHAIN FASHION LANYARD

The Boojee Beads lanyard hangs 19″ from the back of the neck in order to display ID badges clearly yet not be cumbersome to movement. I like this length to not disrupt the line of my clothes, it appears and drapes like a necklace.

HAND-CRAFTED

An attractive handmade piece, the various beads match several items in my work wardrobe and the colors and shapes add some sparkle and interest. There are some metallic pieces to add versatility.

MAGNETIC BREAKAWAY CLOSURE

The breakaway closure is a safer option in crowds and elevators where a badge or ID may accidentally get tangled. These magnets are surprisingly strong and will connect if they are within a few inches of each other, and they really stay put!  I like this as a clasp because it is sturdier than a traditional clasp and easier to use.

There are colleagues you only see at annual conferences, and invariably it seems when someone hugs you, a name badge gets caught. Avoid this with a breakaway clasp chain.

STURDY ID HOLDER LOOP

A sizable holder loop easily holds Photo IDs, keys, and lapel badges. It is simple to use, extra-large and secure. It is the same goldtone as the rest of the piece, so the ID is less obtrusive looking than standard IDs. The loop can be removed if one prefers not to wear just the necklace.

PUTTING THE BOOJEE BEADS LANYARD TO THE TEST

I have a Photo ID at both work and at school, it is needed to open doors and to present at check points around both campuses. I found the lanyard to be comfortable to wear, it draped nicely and it didn’t scratch my neck like fabric lanyards tend to do. I was able to hold both IDs on the larger, sturdy ID hook. I like the length as I could wear a shorter necklace at the same time and it didn’t tangle.

My ID is accessible and clearly visible for work but the Boojee Beads lanyard is not cumbersome to wear

ABOUT BOOJEE BEADS

It all started when a Katie crafted a strand of beads for her mom, Lisa, a pediatric nurse. Lisa wore the beads to work with her ID clipped to the bottom. Other hospital nurses saw it and wanted their own lanyard.  Lisa teamed up with her busy corporate career sister-in-law, Kimberly, who came up with the business plan that made this small at-home enterprise grow into a family business. The Boojee Beads lanyard necklaces are still hand-crafted, and they are now part of a charmingly curated boutique full of innovative, useful products including badge reels and fitness jewelry.

Boojee Beads is a Woman-Owned Business based that helps turn boring work IDs into a unique workplace style with hand-crafted beaded lanyards. If you dislike looking like everyone else at work and want to show your own unique style, check out Boojee Beads creative ways to wear your photo ID.

CONCLUSION

A sturdy, attractive alternative to plastic or fabric lanyards, the Boojee Beads Chain Fashion Lanyard makes photo ID less unfashionable and imposing on your outfit, adds a bit of feminine style to work attire, and has a pretty, hand-crafted artistry. Strong enough to hold ID, a few keys, or a name badge at a convention or seminar, the Boojee Beads Chain Fashion Lanyard is a unique option

Boojee Beads Pastel Party Chain Fashion Lanyard looks pretty and distinctive with my spring and summer clothes

Profile of a Jewelry Brand: 7 Charming Sisters

March 13, 2017 · Leave a Comment

Today is National Jewelry Day, so we’re thrilled to tell you about a brand that crafts gorgeous jewelry pieces, 7 Charming Sisters.

My family has been collecting gorgeous, classic pieces of jewelry for generations. I’ve also curated a collection of stunning pieces myself. Some pieces are from Harry Winston; some are costume jewelry pieces. Once you determine your jewelry style, high-end and less expensive jewelry work together wonderfully!

Who are the 7 Charming Sisters, you ask? They are seven “work sisters” who have strong and distinct personalities and styles. They are: Paula, the elegant Classy Chick, Kim, the vivacious Life of the Party, Jennifer, the dedicated Fashionista, Donalda, the flirtatious Social Butterfly, Jessica, the Smart and Sexy Nerd, Kimberly, the cute Girl Next Door and Melissa, the sporty Super Mom. Any of those sound like you? Then you have a starting point of what type of jewelry might appeal to you.

Personally, my jewelry collection is a bit eclectic, so I always look through all seven collections, and always see multiple items I like in each collection. Both of the items we picked for the photos in this article are from Kimmie’s collection, but I have purchased items from all seven collections here and there. Have you seen a ring you like in any of our Youtube videos lately? It is probably one of the ones we picked when we treated ourselves to some new jewelry pieces on 7 Charming Sister’s sale!

I started wearing some of 7 Charming Sister’s pieces before I became familiar with the brand. I picked up a large statement ring, which I later found out is their Bug Out Ring . Every time I wear it, people who are definite jewelry connoisseurs always ask me if it is from Bulgari. It is an expensive looking piece that always gets attention!

Two of our favorite pieces in the current collections are the Vintage Beauty Bracelet and the Champagne Toast Ring . When I first received the items, I started looking for a few outfits with which to pair them. To my delight, I found that the Vintage Beauty Bracelet matched dozens of outfits! It was beautiful with a formal Teri Jon teal gown I wore at the beginning of the year, and it dresses up a pair of tailored jeans. It is a beautiful, highly versatile piece.

The Champagne Toast Ring is a gorgeous spiral ring with Pave Diamonds. I chose the gold toned option, and I love how it is an easy way to add polish to a work outfit or as one of the several rings on a hand. I like wearing it on my index finger as it makes a classic piece feel modern and youthful. It’s also a way to add a little sparkle to your hand without it being mistaken for an engagement ring. It captures the light beautifully when you run your fingers through your hair!

7 Charming Sisters does a lot of good as well. They have a deep commitment to helping the disabled find employment, and they employ those with Intellectual Disabilities, who make many of the beautiful handcrafted pieces you see on the site. Gorgeous jewelry from a company with a conscious!

Whether you have a jewelry collection that would put Cartier’s showroom to shame, or if you are just starting to build your jewelry collection, 7 Charming Sisters has so many beautiful choices. The unique styling and intricate detail of each piece make 7 Charming Sisters a brand worth watching!

Versatile Jewelry Storage: The Langria Jewelry Box

February 8, 2017 · Leave a Comment

Sitting pretty atop a dresser, yet ideal for travel or destination weddings, the Langria Jewelry Box looks like a vintage styled handbag, but inside there are ten velvet lined storage compartments to safely & securely hold a variety of jewelry.

The Langria Jewelry Box

The Langria Jewelry Box

 

Do you love handmade jewelry or vintage jewelry finds? Several heirloom pieces, second-hand jewels, vintage pieces as well as handmade jewelry often do not come with the original box to keep the jewelry safe, or the gift box or bag is just intended to present the jewelry, not to protect it in storage. I like the soft velvet interior and the multiple compartments of the Langria Jewelry Box that makes for ideal storage for “loose” or unboxed jewelry.

LANGRIA JEWELRY BOX DESIGN FEATURES

Something that frustrates me about many jewelry cases is that the layout often doesn’t suit the needs of my jewelry collection. The Langria Jewelry Box has ten sections that comprise seven types of storage compartments within the three layers of the jewelry case. This functional, multi-compartment design keeps jewelry organized and separate from other pieces to avoid scratching or tangling.

 

The Langria Jewelry Box

The Langria Jewelry Box

 

THE LANGRIA JEWELRY CASE LAYOUT

On the underside of the case lid, below the mirror, there is an elasticized fabric pouch pocket for holding especially small or delicate items such as small sentimental keepsake items, shoe clips, or hair jewelry. The elastic is secure, and items do not slip out when the case is closed.

The Langria Jewelry Box

The uppermost section of compartments is open-face.

  • In the rear of the case is a velvet lined ring roll section with eleven slots to hold rings, earrings, or pins/broaches. For small, simple rings, two rings may fit per slot. The padding is deep so that even a larger ring is securely kept in place with adequate room between each ring.
  • The front of the uppermost section divides into thirds:
    • The left front third is a full velvet lined compartment for holding larger pins, broaches, necklaces, or dangling earrings.
    • The middle front third section has a lid with a handle to provide extra protection for one or two small to mid-size pieces.
    • The right front third section has three removable horizontal dividers that could hold cufflinks, earrings, necklaces, and bracelets.

 

The Langria Jewelry Box

Beneath the top open-face compartment section are two pull-out drawers (one narrow full-width drawer and one deep drawer with two sections).

  • The narrow drawer easily holds several necklaces and bracelets.
  • The deep drawer is suitable for jewelry in a drawstring bag, ring or bracelet boxes, or for holding loose pieces such as bracelets, broaches, bangles or a watch.

WHAT MAKES THE LANGRIA JEWELRY BOX SPECIAL?

While this case looks pretty on a dresser, I particularly like that the jewelry box is shaped like a vintage style hard case handbag, and it has a notably sturdy wear-proof handle to carry the case. This portability makes it a very useful item for transporting jewelry for various occasions.

PORTABLE JEWELRY STORAGE

TRAVEL: In addition to holding jewels at home, I like that the sturdy wear-proof handle and case construction makes the Langria Jewelry box ideal for traveling with jewelry. Some events that it would be particularly useful include destination weddings (helpful for the bride, bridal party or wedding guest), for extended business trips, vacations, and special occasion events. Jewelry packed within luggage can get lost or stolen; the Langria box is “purse-sized” at 8.9 x 6.1 x 7.5 inches, it weighs about a pound and can be kept discretely in a carry-on bag.

WEDDING JEWELRY CASE: Wedding jewelry comes in many forms: Heirloom pieces with sentimental value, handmade jewelry, delicate vintage jewelry finds, rented and borrowed jewelry, and pieces purchased just for the wedding. What do all these have in common? They all will require being stored and transported safely and then held securely before and after the wedding. I find this the perfect size for holding both the bride’s and groom’s jewelry, bridesmaids’ jewelry, or just the jewelry of the bride including the rings, necklace, bracelets, and hair jewelry.

ADDITIONAL DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION DETAILS

  • A stylish vintage look, the Langria case comes in three colors. We got the black.
  • Each compartment is velvet lined to keep jewelry scratch-free.
  • The ring roll is heavily padded to give rings enough room yet hold them in place.
  • It is very sturdy, and the drawers and compartments are solid.
  • It comes with a key lock on a secure double level closure that snaps shut to keep the jewels safe.
  • It has an embossed crocodile pattern, patent leather look.
  • There is a small, accurate reflection mirror.

GIFT IDEA

The Langria Jewelry Case makes for a gift for someone developing a jewelry collection, for someone who has an overflowing jewelry collection or makes jewelry, or for a destination wedding bride to hold her wedding jewelry, for a young woman going away to college who may wish to keep her jewelry safe under lock and key. It also makes for a nice bridesmaids gift, especially if bridesmaids are wearing jewelry or hairpieces to the wedding.

CONCLUSION

The Langria Jewelry Case has a vintage handbag shape with a sturdy handle, making it an ideal a carry-on piece to safely transport expensive or sentimental jewels in a scratch-proof, locked case to keep your jewelry with you safely while traveling. I like that the multiple compartments keep my jewelry safe, and that dangling earrings have their space, there are adequate slots for my rings without crowding them, and necklaces remain tangle free because they are stored separately. Ideal for travel or home use, this is a highly versatile jewelry case!
