PORTABLE YET PRETTY AROMATHERAPY: BOUTIQUELOVIN Aromatherapy Essential Oil Diffuser Necklace

September 2, 2017 · Leave a Comment

Want to harness the power of aromatherapy when you are away from your home oil diffuser, such as at work, at school, or while traveling? BOUTIQUELOVIN designed a necklace to do just that: it’s an essential oil diffuser necklace that allows for personal aromatherapy wherever you go.

BOUTIQUELOVIN Aromatherapy Necklace allows for personal aromatherapy on the go

WHY PORTABLE AROMATHERAPY

Aromatherapy can invigorate, calm, uplift, provide clarity and concentration, dissipate food odors, and energize us. But not all environments will allow a diffuser, including an office, school, library or fitness center. Most essential oils are too powerful to be applied directly to the skin. BOUTIQUELOVIN Aromatherapy Essential Oil Diffuser Necklace provides personal and portable aromatherapy without the use of diffusers, electricity or water, yet they provide hours of enjoyment of using the essential oil of your choice.

Attractive locket pendant on stainless chain

ABOUT THE BOUTIQUELOVIN Aromatherapy Essential Oil Diffuser Necklace

DESIGN

The BoutiqueLovin Aromatherapy Essential Oil Diffuser Necklace is a Stainless Steel Locket with an Adjustable Chain with extender. The necklace chain, clasp, and pendant are sturdy with no loose pieces. The hinge on the pocket is solid and well-made.

Close uo of the floral pattern. Durable yet attractive, the BOUTIQUELOVIN stainless steel necklace and locket is a pretty piece that will last for years

The BOUTIQUELOVIN necklace combines well-crafted stainless steel design with natural elements to create a versatile piece

  • Made from anti-allergy titanium stainless steel for durability. Wear it all the time and it will be resistant to scratches, dents or tarnish.
  • NO LEAK DESIGN: Double magnet closure ensures that the locket will stay closed and the oil-containing pad stays put.
  • EASY TO OPEN design
  • EIGHT COLOR OPTIONS TO CHOOSE FROM TO MATCH YOUR OUTFIT
  • DRAWSTRING VELVET GIFT BAG
  • CHAIN LENGTH: Chain necklace measures 20″ with a2″ chain extender.
  • LOCKET SIZE: 1 INCH. Classic while still eye-catching.

VERSATILE COLOR AROMATHERAPY PADS

It also comes with eight colorful and reusable pads to hold aromatherapy oils. Only a drop or two is needed for several hours use.

The reusable cloth pad colors are black, white, pink, aqua blue, purple, green, orange and yellow. These eight colorful microfiber cloth pads are inserted inside the necklace within the locket chamber of the pendant and serve as a background color to the flower face pattern so they can coordinate with your outfit of the day and look great on a variety of fabrics and textures. They are reusable.

HOW TO USE THE NECKLACE

Apply the essential oil or oil blend to the pad in your choice of color. You may already have a favorite essential oil or oil blend or can experiment with some of the suggested oils listed below.

Well-made design holds aromatherapy oil pads securely behind the floral design. There are eight color options to compliment your outfits

Locket deep enclosure keeps the aromatherapy pads secure with snap and magnetic closures

ESSENTIAL OILS TO USE WITH THE AROMATHERAPY NECKLACE

I found the micro pads hold the scent for several hours. Where would it be useful to have an aromatherapy necklace? Some aromatherapy uses I found to use my necklace include the following:

ALL Natural BUG DETERRENT for outdoor events

Going to an outdoor wedding, picnic, or al fresco dinner party and don’t want to smell like bug spray? Use this necklace instead to keep mosquitos and other bugs away during an outdoor event.

  • Peppermint Oil deters bugs and can work as a natural, pleasant smelling bug spray
  • Tea Tree Oil helps deter bugs and ticks, making it particularly useful for camping, hikes, and picnics when constant bug spray is not an option.

Don’t want to wear bug spray to an outdoor event? Try Peppermint or Tea Tree Oil in a BOUTIQUELOVIN Aromatherapy Necklace

Versatile and attractive for casual picnics or for more formal outdoor events

DURING EXAMS & Stressful Work Projects

  • Rosemary Oil helps with nervousness, fatigue, and mental clarity, especially when under stress, like during a presentation or staff meeting. Some report that diffusing Rosemary Oil helps students concentrate while doing their homework or learning.
  • Peppermint Oil is invigorating and aids with mental clarity. It is beneficial when studying, or concentrating on a project or school exam.
  • Silver Fir is calming yet inspiring, ideal for exams with essays

Silver Fir is calming yet uplifting. Ideal for work, exams, creative projects, and exercise motivation

EXERCISE

Exercise such as Yoga, Pilates, and stretching are enhanced by the uplifting scent of Grapefruit Oil. Grapefruit is stimulating and uplifts the mood. Peppermint or Silver Fir is also invigorating during a workout.

COPING WITH CONGESTION OR ALLERGY SEASON

Eucalyptus essential oil is helpful for congestion, and is helpful in dry offices allergy season, or if you are coming down with or recovering from a cold.

Eucalyptus works to ease congestion or invigorate you during exercise. Just add a few drops to the pad for all day relief

COMBATTING FOOD ODORS

Lemon is invigorating, smells clean and is considered a universally liked scent. Did you eat something strong smelling for lunch such as fish or a spicy meal, or did you eat something in a restaurant or cafeteria with a strong lingering smell, perhaps a fast food restaurant with a grill? Peppermint Oil can overcome pungent foods smells and even second-hand cigarette smoke odors that can permeate your clothing.

A THOUGHTFUL GIFT FOR AROMATHERAPY LOVER

The BoutiqueLovin necklace comes in an attractive and useful drawing velvet bag with the BoutiqueLovin logo. It is sturdy and attractive.

BOUTIQUELOVIN comes with a pendant locket necklace, eight pads, and a drawstring gift bag

CONCLUSION

A durable, well made and attractive piece that compliments many outfits, an aromatherapy necklace provides the power of aromatherapy on the go! Choose the oil or oils of your choice for work, school, exercise, as a bug repellent at outdoor events, or for a personal fragrance. A lovely gift for an aromatherapy lover.

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

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.

Gifts Ideas Blissique Jewelry Bath Bombs

April 23, 2017 · Leave a Comment

A long soak in the tub is a relaxing indulgence of the senses that can nourish and soften the skin. Want to pamper a friend, your Mom, or yourself with a fun, skin-enhancing at-home spa-sesh bath gift? Try Blissique Jewelry Bath Bombs, fragrant, large, luxe bombs with Vitamin E, Sea Salt & Organic Shea Butter, plus a surprise novelty engagement-style ring hidden inside

ABOUT BLISSIQUE JEWELRY BATH BOMBS

Blissique Jewelry Bath Bombs are a set of two bath bombs that are larger than typical bath bombs at five ounces each. Each bath bomb comes with a surprise costume or faux jewelry ring inside, similar to an engagement ring style sparkler.

Blissique Jewelry Bath Bombs come individually wrapped

HOW BLISSIQUE JEWELRY BATH BOMBS LOOK

The Bath bombs are wrapper tied with ribbon, enclosed in a silver or white box. The appearance, quality, and scent are comparable to Lush or Fragrant Jewels Bath brands of Bath Bombs.

Blissique Jewelry Bath Bomb Set

Blissique Jewelry Bath Bomb Set comes with two wrapped bath bombs

The set has one each of:

  • “Very Valentine” a floral with a pink sugar scent and a candy heart embellishment.
  • “Lush Petals” smells of citrus, cherry blossom, hydrangea, apple, and peach. It has GLITTER, real dried flowers and rose petals that enhance the bath experience.
Lush Petals: look at that micro glitter and dried flowers

FEATURES:

  • Gift Boxed with tissue paper to keep the bath bombs safe and intact
  • HANDMADE in the USA
  • Blissique Jewelry Bath Bombs are a unique Patent-Pending product and make for a special gift idea
  • Made in limited edition, these luxe bath bombs are made in small batches to ensure quality control
  • Your purchase supports a small, women-owned company
  • No hard-to-scrub off filmy residue left on the tub surface after use. The “Lush Petals” did remain in the bathtub afterward, but these are quick to remove. The glitter did not stick to the tub tile.)

INGREDIENTS

Ingredients include skin-softening Organic Shea Butter, Sea Salt, and Vitamin E oil. Shea Butter is highly softening and nourishing to the skin, leaving it smooth and silky. Sea Salt eases minor aches and pains as well as dry and flaky skin. Vitamin E is a collagen-boosting antioxidant that blocks free radicals, keeping skin looking younger and wrinkle free.

ABOUT THE RING

Hidden within the bath bomb is an engagement-style cubic zirconia ring. The styles and sizes of rings vary in each bomb, and range in size from 5-8. All rings are faux silver or gold with a sparkly center. Rings are enclosed in a mini-capsule within the bomb to protect them, and so it is easier to locate the surprise in the bath.

HOW TO USE

Draw a warm bath, unwrap one of the Blissique bath bombs and drop the bomb under running warm bath water.

THE BLISSIQUE EXPERIENCE

Similar to LUSH Brand Bath Bombs in size and tub-soak experience, the Blissique Jewelry Bath Bombs will fizz around the tub for about a minute, producing lush foamy swirls of color and bubbles,  before a ring in a floating gumball machine like container will be revealed.

The “Very Valentine” smells like pink sugar and tints the water a soft opaque pastel pink shade.

With “Lush Petals” the rose petals and micro-glitter float on the top of the bath and the water is lightly tinted an amber-golden hue.

The water left my skin soft and very lightly scented, and the bath was soothing and relaxing. The scent and colored water lasted throughout my long, finger and toe wrinkling soaks in the tub.
