She always seems to show me up, no matter what I do! If I wear a black cocktail dress with spaghetti straps and matching pumps, she shows up in a strapless number with stiletto heels; if I wear diamond teardrop earrings and carry a Dior handbag, she will show up with a ruby choker and carrying a Gucci--I just can't win!

It is especially galling to me because she is always making snide remarks about how I don't have as feminine an appearance as she does. I admit, I am not all girly like she is, but does she have to rub it in my face?

Anyway, what are some suggestions for how I can show her up at the dinner party?

Cultured Pearl Earrings – From Buying to Maintenance

June 24, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

Most cultured pearl earrings are tiny, attractive, and definitely quite expensive. If you're planning to add cultured pearl earrings to your jewelry collection, here are several tips which can help you buy the ideal pair for you and preserve its beauty for a long time.

Where to Buy Cultured Pearl Earrings

Cultured pearl earrings are sold online and in land-based stores. There are pros and cons to buying cultured pearl earrings either online or in person.

Online Auctions Cultured pearl earrings auctioned off online may sometimes be great bargain finds because of its very low price tag, but you have to make sure that you're buying authentic cultured pearl earrings and that it gets delivered to you safely.

Online Jewelry Shopping Sites Prices vary greatly when it comes to cultured pearl earrings sold on online jewelry shopping sites, but once again your biggest problem is making sure that it reaches you safely and free of damage.

Live Auctions Cultured pearl earrings sold in live auctions are usually incredibly rare, beautiful, and definitely expensive.

Land-Based Jewelry Stores Cultured pearl earrings sold in land-based jewelry stores generally have the greatest selection to offer but they tend to be more expensively priced as well.

Wholesale Jewelry Markets It might take you a long time before you can find one, but when you do, you can certainly take advantage of exceptionally low rates as long as you're willing to buy cultured pearl earrings wholesale.

How to Buy Cultured Pearl Earrings

The first question you have to ask yourself is whether you wish for freshwater or saltwater cultured pearl earrings. Then determine if it's important to you as well to know where the pearls have been harvested. Lastly, base your decision on its luster, texture, shape, and overall appearance. Once you've made a selection, consult with the jewelry seller and see if you can get a discount.

How to Care for Your Cultured Pearl Earrings

Cultured pearl earrings are usually small in size so it's terribly easy to lose them. As such, make sure that you place them back on their original or usual casing immediately after you take them off.

If you're going to apply make up, perfume, skincare or any hair cosmetic product, it's best that you do so before putting on your cultured pearl earrings. Cultured pearl earrings are especially vulnerable to damage from toxic chemicals, chemicals which are found in abundance in the items specified above.

Although cultured pearl earrings are better off than pearl necklaces and bracelets because the ears don't sweat as much as arms and the neck do, there's still every possibility that your cultured pearl earrings will suffer from discoloration due to extreme exposure to the natural acidity of your skin. For that matter, it's important that you don't wear your cultured pearl earrings in exceptionally hot or humid places.

Also, wipe your ears in the rest room after a few hours to prevent it from affecting your cultured pearl earrings.

On cleaning your cultured pearl earrings, never use any jewel cleaner or cleaning solution that contains strong chemicals because these can once again affect the appearance of your jewelry. Steam cleaning is neither an advisable cleaning method for pearl jewelry regardless of whether it's cultured or synthetic.

Only use jewelry cleaners exclusively manufactured for pearl jewelry cleaning and apply it with the use of any soft fabric. You can use it slightly damp with water if you wish. Be very gentle when brushing and polishing your cultured pearl earrings as a vigorous rubbing can not only cause it to lose its color and luster but may cause it to tear apart as well.

Once you're done cleaning your cultured pearl earrings, let them dry off completely before keeping them away. Do not use a hair blower to facilitate the drying process.

Always keep your cultured pearl earrings away from other jewelries because its texture is not as tough as other gems like diamonds, opals, or crystals. It's also better to place them inside jewelry pouches instead of jewelry boxes.

Cultured pearl earrings can last several lifetimes if you take special care for it. Clean your cultured pearl earrings regularly, and take care of them well so that you can give them as a gift to your children or even grandchildren and start a new family tradition.

The Best Ingredients For Collagen Elastin Skin Remedy

June 21, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

Let’s face it all of us are someday going to begin getting wrinkles and fine lines, if we don’t already have them. Unless we die at an early age (and I don’t wish that for any of you reading this article or for myself) we all will show the signs of aging, no matter what our background is. Some may show it sooner than others, and some may have more wrinkles than others, but we all will end up with some. So we will all be in need of collagen elastin skin remedy.

The cause of these wrinkles and fine lines is the lack of sufficient collagen and elastin in our bodies to support young looking skin. Our supplies decrease as we age. The rest of our body also uses collagen, and since the major organs has priority over nutrients they will take what they need first to stay functioning and the skin will have to go without.

You can take supplements with these substances in them, but you can’t be assured any of the collagen and elastin will go to the skin. So as far as collagen elastin skin remedy is concerned taking supplements is not a good choice.

You can also have injections, and they do work for the skin and they will cause the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines to diminish, but they are expensive and they have risks involved along with the treatment. Risk of allergic reactions and skin infections are two things to consider. This is not a choice I would consider, but if that is what you choose, be sure you have a reputable plastic surgeon before you have the procedure done.

The safest least expensive collagen elastin skin remedy to choose is to use a skin cream or lotion that contains ingredients that will stimulate your body to produce more collagen for the skin. These will be natural ingredients that work with your body to produce natural collagen and elastin that will do a better job than anything else at keeping your skin young looking.

A couple of ingredients to look for in skin care creams are:

1) CynergyTK contains Functional Keratrin that is similar to the basic protein found in the skin. It will stimulate your skin to produce more collagen and elastin so you won’t get wrinkles and fine lines. If you already have them it will help eliminate them.

2) Nano-Lopobelle H-EQ10 a form of Coenzyme Q10 that penetrates deeply into the skin to increase the elastin and collagen in our skin.

You can’t go to your local drug store or department store and find these ingredients listed on the labels. You’ll only find them online. To find out more about these ingredients and others in to use for collagen elastin skin remedy check out my web site.
