   AYpearl.com explain how To Select Earrings To Match The Shape Of Face?
[11/11/2009 4:17 am]

 Earrings are available online on many craft sites, at accessory stores, or you can go hunting at local craft fairs for earrings and other fashion jewelry.
Another great place to find original earrings  is flea markets. There you can find some one-of-a-kind designs that no one else will be sporting. Just the nature of this type of jewelry gives you the greatest chance to wear something unique.
 
Just remember that earring shapes should balance the face instead of matching it. Round hoops soften rectangular faces, but angular earrings emphasize sharp features. Follow these hints for individual features:
 
Oval face:
Lucky you! If you have an oval face shape, you can wear almost any earring style. Hoops and triangles are especially flattering. However, triangles will emphasize a pointy chin.
 
Round face:
Choose longer earrings with oblong or straight styles. Earrings with sharp angles balance the curves of the face. Avoid round and chunky earrings that sit on the ear lobe. For pretty gemstone earrings, consider the long chains with dangling gems.
 
Square face:
hoops, ovals and small earrings look best. Avoid wearing short and chunky earrings; they make the face appear wider.
 
Large/small/full:
Wholesale earring size is relevant to the size and shape of each individual's face. Chunky earrings that are fabulous on a tall woman may overwhelm a petite woman's features. Round and button styles add curves to a full face; and 3-inch chains or spikes drag down a long, skinny face. Again, balance is the key to a good fit.

   AYpearl.com explain Dos and Don’ts for Care Your Jewelry
[23/06/2009 9:21 am]


Jewelry and gemstones require special care when wearing, storing, or cleaning. All fine jewelry can be safely cleaned by soaking for 10 minutes in warm soapy water. Use a soft brush on harder gems to loosen any dirt around the prongs. To reduce greasy build-up on diamond jewelry, dip it in plain alcohol or vodka before soaking. And we also have several tips for you.handmade jewelry
1 Don't wear fine jewelry when doing housework or gardening and some jewelry can not be worn while swimming.
2 Don't heap your jewelry into one drawer. Remember, a diamond ring can scratch that pearl necklace. Find a good jewelry box.
3 Keep them separate and ideally wrapped in velvet, paper, or silk.
4 Do check for loose stones frequently by gently tapping the piece with your finger near your ear.
5 Do get pearls restrung every two years or annually with frequent use. Find a professional shop to help you do this.
6 Do clean fine jewelry often to maintain its sparkle and beauty.
7 Do not use toothpaste as its abrasives can damage softer gems and metals.

And the above are the general tips, different jewelry needs different care method. Pay attention to the does and don’ts, then your jewelry can be long lasting.
