switchrings-01.jpgCasual accessories fans will be delighted by Switchrings, a new type of ring brought to you by Canadian firm Jool Inc. Each plastic ring is made of two parts: a double-sphered base and wedge-shaped insert. Any time you feel like changing the look of your ring, you can replace the insert with another one of a different design—and with hundreds of designs available for both the base and insert in every conceivable color and theme—from plain translucent pieces to printed butterflies to gemstones to flowers—you’re likely never to run out of options. The feel of the rings is colorful, fresh and trendy, and is perfect for the teenager who enjoys expressing herself through her fashion or the young twentysomething with a casual sense of style.

Webmaster’s note:  There’s a freebie at the end of this post! 

MAKE UP FOR EVER was originally created by and for professional makeup artists in France back in 1984. Professional brands are great because you get excellent formulation with no-fuss packaging, therefore allowing the products to be more affordable than designer brands. Regular consumers saw the benefits of such, and in 1999 the LVMH group bought into the brand and the rest is history.

MAKE UP FOR EVER is known for its concealers and foundations. If you were to try something from this brand, start with these two. Apart from the base, other best-selling products include Star Powder, Diamond Powder, ellipse sponge, cleansers, and cool innovations like lipstick fixer, makeup fixer spray, and eyebrow corrector.

Thus, aside from having found Click Photos (to see previous post, click here), I was ecstatic to have discovered Gallery 7 Digital Studio (www.gallery7online.com), which turns your photos into works of art. You can now hang your photographs on walls as Gallery 7 is able to transfer photographs onto canvas using archival inks that are water resistant and fade-proof!
