There are several forms of body art. Body art can be temporary, for example, body painting, or permanent, such as shaping, dyeing, and scarification, tattooing, and piercing. This article will provide some insight into body art.

Body art painting and shaping

Body painting transforms a person into a spirit or work of art; this can include another gender or a sacred place. Emphasizing on the visual appeal of the subject, the protective body paint is what gives it the appeal.

Body shaping is a technique in which to sculpt the body. Culturally defined ideals of beauty have caused people to bind the soft bones of children's skulls and feet, stretched necks with rings, and removed ribs to make their waist smaller. The most common method today of body sculpting is plastic surgery. Plastic surgery can sculpt and define almost any part of the body.

Skin Dyeing

Henna, is used as a temporary skin dye, in which different patterns and designs are applied to the body. The crushed leaves of the henna plant, when mixed with other natural ingredients, provides a thick, aromatic paste used for painting hands and feet. The olive green, dried out henna powder, mixed with such ingredients as black tea and coffee turns dark. When applied to the skin and left on overnight, it will harden and when pealed leaves a red tone to the skin.

Body art piercing, tattooing, and scarification

Piercing is ornamental as it allows the body to hold certain kinds of ornaments, which are inserted through the skin. The most common parts of the body that are pierced is the face although you will often find ear, nose and lip ornaments. Piercing is often part of a ceremony marking the coming of age. Ornaments might be limited to certain people or worn only on certain occasions

Tattoos are intended to be permanent and the patterns and techniques have varied over the years. The effects of tattooing depend on the country you live in. As an example, in the United States, tattooing is typically looked upon as being rebellious. Tattooing, in the last decade, has become a very popular form of body art throughout the world.

Scarification is much like tattooing, instead of placing a color into the skin with a tattoo needle, the color, or substance is placed into the wound or cut. Once the wound has healed, a permanent mark will remain on the skin

All of the forms of body art listed above can have adverse effects on individuals. There are health concerns with types of body art. If you are contemplating any of the above procedures, be sure to consider all the risks and facts before making any commitments.

The shade of pink that makes you look radiant makes her look all washed out.

That is due to your skin tone. Whether you have warm skin tones or cool skin tones, whether you suit deeper, brilliant colors or pastels. All that makes a difference in the shade of pink you should wear.

Find out your ideal pink by using a true blue scarve and a light blue scarve, a rich orange scarve and a peach scarve.

Drape each scarve, one at a time over your shoulders and look at yourself in the mirror. Which color makes you look your best?

If you look best in orange or peach, you have warm skin tones. That means you look best in peachy pinks and brownish pinks.

If you look best in true blue or light blue, you have cool skin tones. That means you look best in the bluish pinks and true pinks.

If you look better in peach or light blue, go for the lighter shades of pink. If orange or true blue suits you best, go for the deeper, richer shades of pink.

With the popularity of handbags at the present time, its no wonder so many companies are eager to produce knock-off versions of Gucci, Louis Vuitton and other high-fashion handbags. We want to make sure that you know when you are being ripped off so you can spend your well-earned money on something that is truly authentic. Here are some hints which will help you spot a fake designer handbag when you see one:

The Fabric

The fabric used to manufacture top-of-the-line brand name handbags is noticeably different than the material used for fakes. If there is wrong stitching or if the material is flawed in even the slightest manner, chances are it is not a name brand purse. High-fashion handbags will always have real materials, they will not use fake leather or fake animal skin and you will get the real deal 100 percent of the time.

Small Detailing

The great thing about authentic handbags is that they are unique and hours upon hours go into making each one exactly right. Designer handbags will often have extra stitching and detailing such as little diamonds, buckles or zippers which make them truly unique to any other designer. As noted above, the diamonds on name brand handbags will also be real 100 percent of the time.

Study the Celebrities

The best way to determine whether or not a handbag is a fake is by studying the real ones and the best way to do that is through celebrities. Celebrities will always have real name brand designer handbags. Most people recognize the design of Louis Vuitton purses because of Jessica Simpson and the hype she has created for the company. When you constantly see celebrities sporting specific types of handbags you will be more inclined in noticing the difference between real and fake ones.

Brand Name Labels

Many brand name handbag designers will put a custom label or logo on their items which indicate that they are authentic. The names sometimes appear on zippers or pockets and some companies like to put it in the same spot on every handbag to ensure their customers know it’s real.

It is important to know that you are getting what you pay for when it comes to designer handbags. If you’re instincts are telling you that the purse is a fake, chances are you’re probably right and its best to leave the bag where it lies. With the amount of money you are spending on these items, you want to make sure the bag you’re buying is authentic and worth every penny you are spending.

Guess its not so full service after all. So you go to another beautician and they don’t know what to do either. Why is that? Some of the reasons hairstylists don’t offer “long hair” or updo service is because:

None of their clients have long hair
Never learned how
Takes too long
Learned, tried it, but got out of practice and forgot
Too confusing

To the hairstylist, watching is easy. But when you are actually doing the work, it becomes confusing. It’s hard for a hairstylist to get and keep clients. If you are able to offer total hair services, including long hair, then you’ll be keeping new clients instead of sending them away. One way to help you get over some of the points listed above is to practice on a wig or mannequin. When you are in-between appointments, this will offer you practice to gain confidence and allows you to display your work to your customers.

If you are good at long hair, then you need to be the hairstylist that your competitors send their customers to. Advertise that you do long hair. There are plenty that don’t do long hair and this approach may get you the client list you need.

Let the bridal shops know you are available, along with the formal dress shops. Girls going to prom always want fancy hairstyles. Offer your services free to the bridal show as a promotion for your business. This helps you gain more updo customers and helps the bridal shop. Win-win.

You can also create a photo album of the mannequins you have been practicing on, or on customers. This will give prospective customers your ability and creativity level. Another idea is to work with a clothing store on their special event or sale days – and offer your services to attract customers. You can make these books up inexpensively with a digital camera and color copies. Have them bound with some of your business cards and ask if you can display them at the bridal shops.

Complimentary cards are very good, too. You can offer a discount on the back of the card. When a client gets their hair done, then give them some cards to hand out when they are asked where they got such a cute hairstyle. This works especially well at high schools before proms and dances. As always, if they don’t need long hair services, they will probably pass the card onto a friend.

How much should you charge or expect to pay for long hair or updo services? Well, its different all over the country, but in general, the price should be at least $5 over the normal hairstyle whether it’s a shampoo and blowdry. Be prudent in your pricing as if you get a client that will only require 15 minutes for a braid or a quick updo, then you may not want to charge more.

First of all you have to consider the type of metal your alexandrite ring is made of: silver, yellow gold, white gold or platinum. Depending on this, the alexandrite ring will be affected by different conditions and chemical factors. Special care is needed in each case.

Silver
Silver alexandrite rings can lose original luster, darken and get scratched over time. It is a soft metal and the change in color the oxidation process is natural (due to sulfides in the air).
Solutions:
-don’t wear the alexandrite rings when using products with abrasive chemicals: nail polish, detergent, hair spray, bleach. So, avoid getting the metal in contact with alcohol, acetone, chlorine, ammonia or turpentine.
-store the silver alexandrite ring in a container that is non-reactive, meaning the jewel does not come in contact with humidity, light or air
-avoid placing the jewelry in places where it can get scratched or rubbed against other jewels
-don’t place it on wood! The wood can damage the finish through its contained acids
-the cleaning process has to be gentle: use a soft cloth, a soft brush or a horse hair brush made specially for silver cleaning.
-use certain cleaning lotions for silver jewelry, but be careful because the alexandrite gemstone can be affected if the cleaning spray or paste has certain chemicals.
-dipping the alexandrite rings into cleaning solutions or using paste on the alexandrite can remove the natural luster of stones
-a soft bristle brush is ideal for the professional cleaning of alexandrite rings
-after cleaning procedures, wash off any trace or residue of the gem with clean water
-if the tarnishing process has been slowed down by a lacquer shield, then you shouldn’t use any products until the lacquer has completely worn off; otherwise, spotting might appear on the alexandrite ring

Gold and Platinum
These metals are of varying hardness between 2 and 4 (measurement based on the Mohs scale). Gems are measured in this scale also and, the diamond, which is the hardest, is rated a 10. So, one can now see that gold and platinum are soft metals. Just like in the case of silver alexandrite rings, platinum and gold ones are made with the help of alloys; the mix of precious metals, mostly with copper, has the desired hardness and strength. Being easy to scratch metals and getting deteriorated in alloys also, special care has to be given to gold and platinum alexandrite rings.
Solutions:
-alexandrite rings made from gold and platinum have to be stored separately to avoid scratching
-cloth wraps, soft pouches or even plastic bags that help protect the alexandrite ring are very useful.
-keep the gold alexandrite ring out of pools or hot tubs because the chlorine and bromine can damage it
-same cleaning rules (like in the case of the silver alexandrite ring) apply to these metals also

How do you protect the alexandrite stone in alexandrite rings?
The alexandrite is a very though stone. It is rated an 8.5 on the Mohs scale. Still a lot of care and protection is needed. The alexandrite ring mustn’t suffer hard blows because it can eventually be damaged. High temperature changes can also destroy it and certain chemicals contained in cosmetics or harsh solutions for cleaning can make it lose its color. The jeweler’s heat torch can damage its color when the gem is remounted into another alexandrite ring. This doesn’t mean that the gem shouldn’t be used to remake the alexandrite ring once it was destroyed. Nor does it mean that, once alexandrite rings brake, they shouldn’t be repaired. On the contrary, these things have to be done so that the beauty of the exquisite alexandrite can live on for more than a life a time. However, certain care has to be given to an alexandrite ring. It is a special jewel that has to be treated with more care than other pieces of jewelry.

The longevity of alexandrite rings doesn’t necessarily imply great investments. When learning to apply some basic rules, it is easy to see that the protection or maintenance of an alexandrite ring can cost almost nothing. If you consider that more information is needed for the special care of your alexandrite, Randy G. Lander can help you. She, just like many professionals in this field, holds the answers to your questions. It is just a matter of asking and researching. Learning basics just takes self discipline and a lot of love for jewelry.

The Worlds Newest Jewelry Stone http://www.articletrader.com/shopping/fashion/what-in-the-world-is-moissanite-the-worlds-newest-jewelry-stone.html http://www.articletrader.com/shopping/fashion/what-in-the-world-is-moissanite-the-worlds-newest-jewelry-stone.html Tue, 11 Apr 2006 00:00:00 -0500 amounts and sizes as to be uncommercial.

It was discovered in 1893 by Henri Moissan in a meteorite which had fallen to earth some 50000 years ago and landed in the Arizona desert. Dr Moissan started studying small fragments from this meteorite and made an astonishing discovery. Imbedded in it were tiny amounts of what looked like a new unknown jewel.

Although it occurs naturally on earth it is only in tiny quantities and commercially unviable.

Scientists could see its potential as a brilliant new jewelry stone and so set out to manufacture it in a lab. It's application as a jewel was immediately clear and so a new naturally occurring but also man made jewel was born. The process of making it is very new. It has only been commercially available in jewelry since 1998, so is only a few years old on the jewelry market.

It is exceedingly hard to make and the process to do so is kept very secret. It can only currently be made in reasonably small quantities.

There are a number of properties of jewels which are common amongst them and are therefore used for comparison purposes. These properties are beauty, colour, brilliance, fire and luster, durability and rarity.

The brilliance of a jewel is created by the cut. A diamond in it's natural state for instance is pretty unimpressive. Give it a proper design and use the diamonds natural refraction of light and it is beautiful. It is the cut that does this, however it is the qualities of the jewel which produce the brilliance once it has been cut. Brilliance can be measured by the amount of light which enters a jewel compared with the amount which comes back when put under a light source.

Fire refers to the ability of the stone to refract light back out in colours. The light rays break up into their original spectrum colours and that is what gives the jewel its special character.

Luster is the amount of light reflected back from the surface of the jewel.

Durability is the toughness, the resistance to scratching, chipping, or splitting. This is detemined by its hardness, and it is also the hardness which determines the brilliance.

Rarity is reasonably obvious. It is the availability of the jewel.

Moissanite equals or outperforms diamonds just about all categories. In particular it has superior brilliance, fire and luster. The only category in which it doesn’t outperform diamonds is hardness. It is slightly softer than diamond, but only very slightly, and is harder than all other stones. Jewellers can stuggle to tell the difference between diamonds and Moissanite. In fact there is now a specific instrument which has been developed to help jewellers to tell the difference between diamond and moissanite as it is so hard to see and so many cannot tell them apart.

It will not scratch or become cloudy with wear.

In 1999 the US imported 23.4 million carats (karats) of diamond and only .07 million carats of Moissanite. It is very rare.

There are other diamond substitutes available such as cubic zirconia or even glass. Moissanite outperforms all these admirably.

Moissanite is not really a diamond substitute though. It is a new jewel in its own right. It is just so good that it is immediately compared to diamonds which are always thought of as the best jewel.

If you are thinking of diamond jewelry then moissanite has to be considered. It is far cheaper than a comparable diamond. It is high quality. It is a great jewel. At the end of the day it is not diamond and so if you are determined to get a diamond then do so. But it is a very attractive alternative.

It is more and more becoming the choice of the stars.

Kim Cattrall's character, Samantha Jones, wore a brilliant white gold ring featuring Moissanite in an episode during the last season of the TV hit Sex and the City.

Kiko Ellsworth, one of Hollywood's "Hot" young stars wore a brilliant pair of 2 ½ ct. Moissanite "Martini Stud" earrings to the premiere of Bad Boys II, on July 9th in Los Angeles.

Many other stars have been seen wearing moissanite jewelry in the last few years. It is becoming the new fashion in jewelry. It is also becoming one of the most popular engagement ring stones.

Moissanite is the newest and certainly one of the best jewelry stones available. Moissanite is here to stay.

Increasingly, engaged couples are considering the cost of some wedding jewelry. In today’s high pressure high cost lifestyle couples are really wondering whether or not it is appropriate to spend big on, say, a diamond engagement ring.

The more spent on wedding jewelry the less available later for the important things in the marriage, like a house. Or the kids when they arrive. Is it responsible to spend so much to buy a diamond engagement ring when these more important things may need to be compromised later?

Especially when you consider that good quality man made diamonds cannot be distinguished from real diamonds, even by jewellers.

Faux diamonds are big business. The pearl jewelry industry was revolutionised by the advent of cultured pearls. Synthetic diamonds are doing the same thing to the wedding jewelry business.

There are a range of ways to produce synthetic diamonds. Modern technology is very adept at making any product which will sell well and faux diamonds are no exception. And the quality is so good that many of the alternatives to diamonds perform exceedingly well when compared to diamond using the common diamond quality tests.

In such tests as hardness, refractive index, fire, brilliance, luster and others the man made diamonds perform admirably. Sometimes even better.

Brilliance is a test of the amount of light which enters the stone and gets reflected back. It is affected by the quality of the cut of the stone.

Fire is the ability of the stone to break light down into it’s component colors and is also affected by the cut. “Fire” can be seen as color coming out of the stone.

Luster is the amount of light reflected back from the surface of the stone.

Moissanite, for example, outperforms diamond in brilliance, fire and luster and is only very slightly lower on the hardness scale. In fact a special piece of testing equipment had to be designed so that jewellers could tell moissanite from diamond as so many were unable to.

And, of course, moissanite is much cheaper than diamonds. And if most jewellers cannot tell it apart from diamonds, could you?

There are a range of different processes used to produce a stone which is a good diamond alternative. Most produce fine quality stones which produce stunning quality jewelry which any woman would be proud to wear.

Moissanite is not strictly a man made diamond though, as it is, in fact, naturally occurring. Unfortunately it doesn’t occur in sufficient quantities to be commercially viable for mining. But technology has come to the rescue by devising a method of producing high quality crystals.

Our preference for the best alternative to diamonds? Moissanite. A fine jewelry stone which will make a stunning engagement ring, or other jewelry piece. And you can buy moissanite wedding jewelry at a fraction of the price of diamond wedding jewelry.

And when the kids come along, buy them something extra from us from the money you’ve saved.
