DIY: Crystal Vine Design

I was inspired by Sis Che's creativity that's why I tried to create a simple design for my candle.It's my first time and my only tool is the ordinary long nose you can find in a hardware store. I bought my beads from Carolina's shop at Market Market. I went there without the knowledge which type of wire to use and the beads. I accidentally bought 2 Swarovski bead necklaces for Php100 each and a seed bead for Php35. The wire costs Php60 per 1 roll.





My first crystal vine. 
Isn't it cute? Ahahaha! If you take a closer look, you'll see that the twisted wires didn't look good at all. 
I managed to twist the wires using my bare hands..it's painful and difficult but it's all worth it.


This is Mommy Jen's version. She taught me how to twist the wires using a flat nose flier. She even lend me her tools for accessory making. Sweet! 







By the way, please help me decide 
which wire color to use for a white candle design.

Which is more pretty, the one with silver wire or gold wire?



Cheers,

Facial Masks: Etude House, Esfolio and Baroness

I am trying to include the facial mask to my daily skin care routine. However, I was so lazy to do this every night. So I decided to do it every Friday night to de-stress and relax after a work week.  The Etude House facial masks are my favorites because it has a rich amount of liquid essences included in a single pack.  I noticed that it made my skin soft, smooth and minimized the visibility of pores right after I used it. I looked fresh! haha!  The Esfolio and Baroness facial masks are the affordable masks which I bought from the recent BeautyMnl's sale. It costs Php 44 for Esfolio  and Php 30 for Baroness. I was intrigued to try because of the customers's good feedback. So far, the Esfolio's Pearl Essence Mask is my new fave, it achieved the skin effects that I experienced on EH's facial masks. The only thing that I don't like is the amount of liquid essences which are enough for a single use unlike the EH's facial masks. For the Esfolio'...
