He Qi Crystal Designs
6:28 PMHey guys! My next couple of posts are going to be about some of my favorite accessories: JEWELRY! Most of you should know by now how much I adore things that are cute, sparkly, shimmery, iridescent, reflective, etcetera etcetera and there is nothing better in my humble opinion than crystals. They just come in such a wide variety of colors, shapes, sizes... Endless possibilities! Having done a bit of jewelry making myself in the past, I have so much respect for the blogger girls who are making their own business by custom creating these lovely items to sell online.
One of these super sweet ladies is Lisa from He Qi Crystal Designs (formerly known as HeHe Productions) who has been doing craftmaking for a number of years. You Soompi girls probably recognize her as one of the biggest sellers in the selling & trading forums, and she definitely lives up to her experience.
Here is a video I made about the earrings (ROWR, youtube made my vid squished. It's supposed to be widescreen! T.T)
Browsing through her online store http://heheproductions.ecrater.com it was very difficult to choose what I wanted to get (I wanted them all XD), but these really adorable mother-of-pearl earrings really caught my eye.
She also sent the package with lots of yummy candies and samples
The earrings came in very pretty packaging tied with a metallic ribbon
Here is what the earrings look like on. Really nice size, isn't it?
A close-up
I really like how the crystal at the bottom hangs. It's very delicate but still shows up a lot.
This shows off my makeup well...I used NYX cherry for the upper lid and NYX morocco (LOVE this color!) for the bottom. Lenses are EOS Adult Grey. (If you want to buy these lenses, I got them from www.prettyandcute.com. Write me as your referrer!)
Silly, silly. Love my new earrings!
They just frame the face so well, don't you think? Nicely proportioned!
Woohoo! I love them so much. Thank you SO much Lisa, they are so beautifully made! Everyone please check out Lisa's blog also at http://hqcdblog.blogspot.com/. She's almost always hosting some type of giveaway and has great daily deals and discounts. Plus, she's really sweet. :D

Hey Jen,
ReplyDeleteare you wearing false lashes in the pics with the earrins? or really good mascara? reccomendations?
thanks!
I am wearing falsies! My favorite Shisem lashes in style XOG특. :)
ReplyDeleteThose lenses are amazing!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd the makeup suits it so well... So you just used two colors for the eye makeup?
And of course the earrings... The whole look is just too cool...
i wish you would just embrace how your eyes are naturally and be yourself. unless you are planning to get double eyelid surgery, you are just stretching your eyelids out with that tape. trust me, i know from personal experience. you are doing irreversable damage to your eyelids!!!
ReplyDeleteJen! Thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteI actually recently JUST sent you a little something else.. :X
Thanks again! May I save your modeled pix?
<3
Daituf: I used those two colors, and also a whitish shadow to highlight inner corners and brow bone. Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteAnonymous: I appreciate your opinion, but I enjoy having the choice to do what I want with my eyelids, when I feel the whim. Tape sometimes, glue sometimes, monolids sometimes. I've been using them for quite a while and as you can see in my monolid tutorials, my lids have been doing fine. Thanks for your concern and personal experience though! :)
Lisa: You can absolutely take these! And I JUST got your little surprise in the mail today! So cute and delicate. I'll definitely wear them soon! Too bad it was too dark when I got home to take pics. :P I love the little heart hooks though. ^^ Thank you!!!!
ReplyDeleteJen, you are absolutely stunnning!
ReplyDeleteyou should really consider modeling of some sort =)
oOo, which lenses are you wearing btw? they look great on you!!
CUTE!
ReplyDeletei sometimes browse thru lisa's soompi shop and i saw earrings similar to the ones you have! the ones with doves =D omigosh, i doves <3 they look great on you by the way!
ReplyDeletei'd buy earrings from her too, but unfortunately i don't have my ears pierced..and i'm 18 lol. i'm planning to get them pierced in the near future tho. hopefully perfessionally and not with a gun!
I never really cared much for lenses until I came across your blog and saw you in Solotica Hydrocharmes and the EOS Adult Greys. They look so good!
ReplyDeleteyou look gorgeous!! :) those earrings looks beautiful on you <3
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous! Don't you love Lisa's designs! She's one creative jeweler! Her work looks amazing on you! Gorgeous <3
ReplyDeleteVery pretty =)
ReplyDeleteRight from the makeup to the hairdo, the clothes and the jewelry. Awesome combo ^^
those earrings are absolutely gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteand you are too!
I have been following your blog for a few months and this is my first comment and I have to say that your makeup is always beautiful and that I love your style
you're very pretty :)
ReplyDeleteHi, just wondering if those pics were taken by the pink sony cam you have. I have the same one but the pic quality is not like that : ( any secret?
ReplyDeleteAnonymous: I am wearing EOS brand Adult Grey lenses. Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteAggie: Yes, I did use the Sony Cybershot T-90 for this. Tips for getting good pics... First of all, good lighting. Natural light is the best imo and the "auto" focus usually works very well but sometimes I use the "soft snap" option. Try to hold your hand very still when you take a photo, or prop your hand against something to keep it still. Hope that helps!
your makeup looks gorgeous in the pics! could you possibly do a tutorial on it?? its so pretty =P
ReplyDeletelove the earrings! she IS an amazing jewelry maker :) and ur the perfet model for it ;)
ReplyDeletei love he qi's designs too (from soompi), they're amaazingg. the lenses are gorgeous!
ReplyDeletei like how they give a violet/gray color :)
& @ Anonymous.. no need to bash at her. you don't even know her, and you haven't met her. that's really unnecessary and rude. >___>
Stumbled on your blog by chance, and love it! Very informative, and you're sure one beautiful young lady! Lovely earrings, something I would wanna wear. (^_^)
ReplyDeleteLovely pair of earrings! Love the dove shape!
