  • Do You Want To Know About Copper Jewelry?

    Date: 2011.07.01 | Category: beauty services | Response: 0

    Human fascination for jewelry and other forms of personal adornments is nothing new, it is as old as humanity itself. Evolutionary biologists have conclusively shown that it is an evolutionary trait to adorn ourselves with various artifacts; it equally applies to both the sexes and it’s not just women that like to wear jewelry. Scientists say that jewelry helps to distinguish individuals and use of jewelry is a form of preening behavior, it helps in mate selection; no wonder women go head over heels for jewelry.

    As their producers could imagine, jewelry has been produced in as many forms and from as many materials. Form and design is mostly dictated by cultural tradition and imagination. Material use has been historically dictated by rarity, utility and desirability.

    Even in our modern times there are only vague guidelines that dictate what designs are acceptable; modern jewelry designers experiment with both material and design to produce jewelry that range from bizarre to those that are nothing short of works of art.

    Copper jewelry are the latest in vogue, many renowned fashion designers are using them in their creations. Handcrafted jewelry is offered by many designer boutiques and online stores. Handcrafted jewelry is consequently flawless and is very painstakingly created and exquisitely detailed.

    Copper jewelry is mostly made of pure copper, other metals are sometimes used for effect and strength. Copper is used in electrical wiring and other equipment, it is also very malleable and ductile as it is a very good conductor of electricity. Copper is associated with the planet Venus which rules Taurus and Libra astrologically and is believed to bring harmony and balance. If you are a Taurus or Libra wearing copper or copper jewelry might help keeping your life balanced and harmonious.

    Copper is also believed to possess healing and pain relieving properties. Certain cultures  - for example, use copper utensils in all their religious ceremonies as, the use of copper for various religious ceremonies by the Hindus is very famous. The Chinese believe that copper helps to conduct and channel the life force or ‘chi’ and prevents illness.

    Copper jewelry is equally desirable whether worn as a fashion statement or for therapeutic benefits.

    Sorry for the shaky camera, this is the first time I’ve ever done anything like this. Granted, I received lots of odd stares, but I assured them that I was not bonkers…kind of..

    So this On The Go Review takes place at CVS. I figured almost every part of the state has CVS, and you can find most of these products at any major drugstores and such. I will be doing a Walgreens, Target, Mac, Sephora and more On The Go Review in the future.

  • Hypnotic Poison by Christian Dior: Perfume/Fragrance Review

    Date: 2010.05.03 | Category: beauty perfume | Response: 25

    Katie Puckrik smells Hypnotic Poison by Christian Dior.
    Please subscribe!
    I’ve had a boatload of requests to review this one, so here it is! For more information including where to buy, hippity hop over to my blog: http://www.katiepuckriksmells.com/2010/04/christian-dior-hypnotic-poison.html

    Transcript:
    Hypnotic Poison by Christian Dior is a decadent oriental that vibrates between unusual and plain old weird.

    At the start, this eau de toilette is thick, flat, and borderline musty. Kind of like paste that almost smells good enough to eat because of a slight touch of almond sweetness. But if you did eat it, you wouldn’t be very happy with yourself, cuz you just ate paste.

    Because of the thickness, I find Hypnotic Poison a little suffocating when I first put it on. I actually feel claustrophobic, like I’m stuck inside a giant papier-mache dessert glued together with that aforementioned paste.

    Wait! Did you hear a woman’s voice coming out of that papier-mache plum-almond-coconut tart? That was weird.

    For me, Hypnotic Poison finally achieves lift-off when the jasmine make a break for it. The jasmine is a variety called sambac, which is particularly heady and fleshy. There’s also a jacaranda wood accord, which has kind of an intimate salty smell.

    Here’s where the Hypnotic Poison’s rich vanilla kicks it into a languid, sexy dance, instead of sitting on my skin like a slug. Made out of paste.

    Because I find Hypnotic Poison so challenging, I’d really love to know what you fumeheads think about it. Maybe you can help me with it. Let me know in the comments section.

    It takes me about 30 minutes to really get Hypnotic Poison, but when I do, it really gets me. Sold! To Hypnotic Poison. I’m Katie Puckrik, and I smell.

  • Emporio Armani Diamonds Commercial Featuring Beyonce

    Date: 2010.04.15 | Category: beauty perfume | Response: 25

    Diamonds Fragrance is available online now at http://www.giorgioarmanibeauty-usa.com/DIAMONDS The official commercial for Emporio Armani Diamonds fragrance featuring Beyonce.

    When creating Emporio Armani Diamonds, Giorgio Armani had the Emporio Armani woman in mind; a woman who could be strong, confident, feminine and very sexy, a symbol of the 21st century, someone who is living her life like a fascinating current event. When Giorgio Armani chose the name Diamonds, he meant a symbol of audacity, of sexiness with elegance and desireability, reflecting the sparkle, brilliance and strength of this irresistible stone.

    Who better than this astonishing actress, brilliant performer, friend of the house, to be the face and voice of the new Emporio Armani fragrance? Diamonds are a girl’s best friend and Emporio Armani has a new incomparable best friend. Her name is Beyonce.

  • Beauty Benefits of Organic Virgin Coconut Oil

    Date: 2010.04.09 | Category: beauty care | Response: 25

    Organic Virgin Coconut Oil has many amazing health benefits. It is a fantastic addition to your diet and can also be used in your beauty/skincare routine. I like to use this as a moisturizer, hair treatment, and as an eye makeup remover.

    You can get coconut oil at natural health food/vitamin stores. You can also buy it online. It is available at Amazon.com and Drugstore.com and probably many other places.

    There are many websites that review the benefits of incorporating coconut oil into your health/beauty routines. Check out http://www.organicfacts.net/organic-oils/organic-coconut-oil/health-benefits-of-coconut-oil.html

  • Best Face Sunscreen

    Date: 2010.04.07 | Category: beauty care | Response: 0

    It is not true that we do not need sunscreens if it is cloudy day or it is cold outside. It is because sun’s ultraviolet rays can reach the earth’s surface of almost 40 percent during cloudy days! Most of us, do not use sunscreens during cloudy days knowing that there is no heat outside,and that is a big no!no! Observe your skin it might experience sunburns.
