Updated Trollbeads Collection: Fairy (Silver & Glass) and Letter Bead M

The entire content of this entry has been transferred to my new blog, please view it here.

Here's another update on my Trollbeads collection. If you want to know more about Trollbeads, kindly visit my very first entry here. It's the Special Edition Trollbeads Luck & Joy Starter Bracelet that got me hooked! Every now and then I buy a piece or two to update it. My collection is getting more and more expensive ; p

 latest additions are Fairy (61722) in Silver & Glass (center) and 
the Letter Bead M (11144M) (second from left)

I was supposed to buy Trollbeads Autumn (61720) because the color blended well with my collection. But upon seeing a huge gap from one side of the sterling silver, I changed my mind and got the Fairy (shown in the photo above) instead. It was a wise decision because the Fairy is bigger therefore more prominent when worn.

I passed by Trollbeads boutique in Robinsons Magnolia many times but it was only last Sunday when I was able to enter the store. I was amazed at the display inside. Imagine, a crown ring with a dust of shimmering gold, calling for my attention a la Confessions of a Shopaholic hahaha Of course, I also took notice of the different Trollbeads available.

I was able to inquire about the brand, where it came from and what it's made of. One of the SAs patiently discussed the brand with me. Trollbeads' "bead on bracelet" concept definitely piqued my curiosity but that day, I went home empty-handed.

 Special Edition Trollbeads Luck and Joy Starter Bracelet (TB50540) PhP 8280 5,395

The next morning, I searched online and found out that Trollbeads originated in Copenhagen, Denmark in 1976- the year I was born! The first bead made was a small, silver bead decorated with 6 faces that, well, look like a troll hence the name Trollbeads.

In 2002, the first glass bead was made, like the one shown in the photo above. I was totally in awe while watching the video on how a piece of glass bead was made so I made a decision to buy one for myself ; p

MakeUp for Asian Eyes

I am not a make up guru nor a make up artist but I know how to put make up on my own. I learned putting on make up from my numerous salon trip. I paid quite a few times for a professional make up artist to prettify my face during graduation, senior prom, debut to becoming a part of the wedding entourage but I see to it that I learn a couple of tips here and there. It's like a free make up tutorial haha

open eye make up

Having a monolid eyes sucks if you don't know how to enhance your God given feature. I learned how to love my almond eyes! You, too, can do your make up on your own. All it takes is practice, practice and more practice!
