I remember the advertising I saw for this product in my magazine Cosmogirl!. It looked really cool and different from other cosmetic products out there. I wasn't planning to buy it but the ad just kept taunting me. My schools homecoming dance was coming up and I thought it'd be cool to have that on for the occasion. We went to ULTA and after a couple minutes we found it and after anothe...

I received the Elizabeth Arden Jewels & Velvet compact for eyes as a Christmas gift from an employee last year. It came in a shiny red quilted box and the compact itself was in a satin shiny quilted materil with a magnetic clasp. Inside the compact there is a mirror, a five colour palette and a two-ended eye shadow brush. The eyeshadow colours are shimery/sparkle and include: brown, black, ...

I picked this up when I saw it at a Rite Aid. It looked really cute and came in different colors (blue, white, pink.) Lash Jewels are supposed to create "jewels" on your lashes after your mascara dries, giving the lashes a kick.Looking back, I wish I didn't bother with this product. It takes forever to dry, still staying sticky, even when my mascara has been dry for a while. I use...

HP Slim Jewel CD cases--I have never understood why blank cds and dvds come with out cases. How is one suppose to store them so they do not get scratched up. I use a lot of blank CDs and DVDs so it was no surprise when I was recently cleaning I found I had about 50 DVD and cds without cases. So I went to the store and when I spotted these I knew it was just what I needed. These cases are made b...

I don't know if I put these jewel cases in the correct category, I chose the best one I could find.  With Circuit City going out of business, my husband and I decided to see what they had.  We picked up a pack of clear jewel cases for CDs and/or DVDs at the price of $19.99 for 25.  My husband informed me that the price was about the going rate. These jewel cases are made...

Dynex Slim Jewel Cases are a good buy at $20.00 for a pack of 50.  One thing I don't like about them is that they are very slim, and I worry sometimes about how sturdy they will be.  I'm always careful with jewel cases, after all, they are just plastic and plastic breaks.  So far, I haven't had any problems.On the plus side, the slimness of these cases means that they...

The Jewel of the Nile is a great sequel to Romancing the Stone.  This movie stars Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner and Danny DeVito.  The movie contains a lot of action, drama and funny moments as well.  Michael Douglas portrays adventurer Jack Colton, and Kathleen Turner is romance novelist Joan Wilder.  The two team up to look for a priceless jewel in the North Africa...

 This cave is in Custer, South Dakota. This cave offers different tours and different fitness levels. My family did the scenic tour which is the moderate fitness level tour. It is 1.5 hours. My son is 8 years old and he had no problem going up and down the stairs. There are 700+ steps on this tour, so if you are very out of shape you probably want to stick with the easy tour. Although I di...

When my now fiance asked me to let him know what kind of engagement rings I'd like, I was immediately excited. Who wouldn't be? So, I went off to the mall to find my perfect engagement ring that would be mine forever. I quickly discovered that these rings could get very expensive, and I didn't want to have $10,000 worth of jewelry on my finger!Then I went to Gordon's Jewelers, a...

Before my hubby and I were married or even engaged for that matter, we would go into jewelry stores and just "window shop".  We stepped into Belden Jewelers one day and I saw just the most beautiful diamond I had ever seen. The clarity was wonderful, the cut was wonderful, and the size was just perfect for my tiny fingers. The problem was the setting that it was put in. It really...

I hate dirty jewelry.  I think jewelry should shine and sparkle.  It should grab people's attention.  It should bring beauty to the owner.I do not have a lot of "good" jewelry so what I do have I want to make sure it is clean and not damaged.  I tried the Gem and Jewelry Cleaner from Reeds Jewelers and was very impressed.  Not only did it clean my gold rin...

My girls all ready want to talk on the phone, with everyone who calls.  So, I was looking for a nice little play phone they could have, that wasn't too babyish.  And, I found these at Target, with a Disney Princess theme, in a beweled coordinating princess bag for them.They were inexpensive, and some good interactive features that they could mess around with, so I bought them, on ...

My husband and I renewed our vows on our 20th wedding anniversary.  We decided to purchase new wedding rings to commerate our special day.  We went to Kay Jewelers in our local mall to pick out new rings.  I looked and looked but didn't find exactly the wedding band set I wanted.  I had an idea of the style but when I tried on different ones I wasn't completely ...

This was a birthday gift from my loving husband!  I saw it in the showcase at my local Kay Jewelery store.  It was very unique looking and I had never seen anything like it anywhere before.  I asked to try it on and once my husband saw how much I loved it, he bought it for me!It is a small star with 5 baguette and 6 round diamonds.  The total diamond weight is approxima...

Kay Jewelers is one of the most successful nationwide jewelry store chains -- and with good reason. The service we received in their Lubbock, TX location was spectacular. Unfortunately, many jewelry stores seem to size their potential customers up and vary their customer service depending on how big their potential sale might be. Not so for Kay. Despite being, how shall I put this, "young ...

I received this heart shaped journey diamond pendant with necklace for Christmas. I wanted something that was great for everyday but still had a very classy look to it.  The one in the catalog was $499 and looked gorgeous but in person it looked really small so I opted for the larger pendant. It is beautiful with good sized diamonds. Everyone that sees it asks about it and loves it.  ...

Jewels For Me is a website where you can create custom jewelry.  They have lots of styles of rings and you can put different stones in them.  I got the bypass ring with genuine sapphire and genuine tanzanite with 14K white gold.  The two stones are side by side with one a little higher than the other.  They are heart shaped stones and each stone is held in place with 3 prong...

When my husband and I got engaged, I didn't care where "he went."  He got straight to my heart by making sure our big kiss began with Kay Jewelers.  After doing a lot of research on cut, color, and clarity, he picked out a simple diamond solitaire in yellow gold from Kay's.  It was just over half a carat and cost just over a thousand dollars.  One thin...

From the minute I first saw the Journey Diamond Necklace on TV I had longed for one since. I got my wish this past Christmas and found neatly under the tree in a gold gift wrapped box a beautiful piece of jewelry. This one is the 1/2 carot princess cut and truly stunning. It hangs gracefully around your neckline and is a true eye catcher when the sun hits it just right.Kay Jeweler's allows ...

Choosing engagement and wedding rings is a highly personal process.  They are not only pieces of jewelry, but symbols that you will carry with you for (hopefully) the rest of your life.  My husband believed this very strongly, and set out to find just the right jeweler for us.  Low and behold, after much research, the perfect jeweler was under his nose the whole time, in his home...
