1. Taking Care of your CRISLU jewelry

    March 20th, 2012 by Krystle Chelsea Chan · Filed Under: Inspiration Board

    Love the CRISLU jewelry you just bought? Many people don’t know that they have to take special care of their jewelry in gold & platinum if it has cubic zirconia set as a stone.  The stone can get dirty real fast and can actually break if hit against a hard surface.  CRISLU has a few tips on how to keep your jewelry clean and safe so it will scintillate forever!

    We recommend that you should always try to take off the jewelry when washing your hands or doing the dishes, or using harsh chemicals. The residue from soaps, shampoos and chemicals can leave a film on your cubic zirconia which in return will lose its shine.  This residue also gets into the gold where the cubic zirconia stone is set and the whole piece of jewelry will look dull in the end.  It can always be polished out but every time your jewelry is polished, it also polishes away your gold and in time your ring will be lighter in weight.

    Try not to hit your CRISLU jewelry against a hard surface.  You will either break the stone or break a prong, which will loosen the stone, causing it to fall out.  Be gentle with your jewelry, especially if you have a center stone that sits high in the setting.

    Following these tips will keep your CRISLU jewelry looking brilliant and beautiful!

  2. How to clean and maintain CRISLU jewelry

    Now that you own a piece of CRISLU jewelry you will want the piece to sparkle and its brilliance to last forever! Just like diamonds, CRISLU jewelry  needs to be cleaned to maintain its original brilliance and luster. Many variables in our surroundings can dull the shine of precious gems such as body lotion, perfume, hairspray, perspiration, or just normal everyday wear.

    Depending on how often you wear them, you can use regular jewelry cleaner once every three months or you can use a home technique to keep the brilliance.

    Fill a cup with luke warm water and add a dash of mild soap to it. You can also use jewelry cleaning solution. Put your CRISLU jewelry in this home-made mixture or jewelry cleaning solution for an hour.  Take your jewelry out and brush it clean by using any small brushing device with soft bristles. CRISLU recommends using a toothbrush. Dry it with a clean, soft cloth.

    Watch how your CRISLU jewelry shines and scintillates again!

  3. Adorn Yourself with Breast Cancer Awareness This Month

    October 14th, 2011 by Krystle Chelsea Chan · Filed Under: Inspiration Board

    A woman anywhere in this planet would never dare to deny how tough it is to be that – a woman! Had there been a balance that could measure the pain that both the sexes go through, it would always get tilted towards the women folk. Breast Cancer is also one of those dark shadows in women’s life that poses the potential to bog down the beauty and strength that we often associate with a woman. Although the disease may swipe away the nectar of happiness from a woman’s life, adequate knowledge about the disease always helps battle it out in the wilderness of life.

    October being Breast Cancer Awareness Month, it is also the best time to widen our knowledge base. With the recent launch of our new online store, CRISLU plans to give back to the community and helps spread the word about this deadly disease. Just like early detection helps in lowering the risk from breast cancer, a smile on the face of a woman struggling with the trauma of breast cancer always adds to her beauty. CRISLU joins Susan G. Komen for a fundraising gala event on October 28th by donating our jewelry collections as both, the live and silent auction items. On top of that, CRISLU is also donating 350 newly launched Micro Pave Pink Ribbon pendants as the gift bag items.

    Pink Charm   

    CRISLU’s Breast Cancer Awareness Micro Pave Pink Ribbon charm is made up of the finest pink micro pave, hand-set on sterling silver with a pure platinum finish. It is also available in clear micro pave stones.  This pendant is 100% hypoallergenic and comes with our lifetime warranty, a perfect gift for someone who is fighting or someone who has overcame breast cancer.

    Jewelry always fascinates women and is an element in her life that makes her feel special. Love, adoration and courage are what your loved ones need when suffering from the dreaded disease. This elegant charm can be a token of all your love and care for those. By adorning her with an elegant CRISLU Breast Cancer Awareness Micro Pave Pink Ribbon charm, a mantra of sorts is set to make her happy.

    October 12th, 2011 by Krystle Chelsea Chan · Filed Under: E-Shopping, Inspiration Board

    As the days get shorter and the air gets cooler, it’s time to update your fall wardrobe and your blings as well! So when you shed off denim shorts and summer tops and move on to light jackets and pants, here’s some advice on what to wear that would jazz up your outfit. The biggest trends in jewelry this fall are bright bauble rings, large pendant, beaded or layered necklaces and mismatched bracelets or stackable bangles and chunky danglers.

    We see a wide variety of jewelry being flaunted by celebrities on the red carpet and models on runways. You can look just as stunning by wearing a sparkling pair of c-z jewels that look stylish and yet won’t cause a void in your bank account.

    Necklaces

    Rings

    Vintage and chunky rings are hottest this season. Besides looking trendy, they are pretty affordable as well. Try on CRISLU fancy square cut ring (style no. 907923R70CZ) and gorgeous square lattice ring which features a total of 1.26 carat-weight of fine micro pave stones set in an intricate square lattice design, finished with 18K gold vermeil.

    To pretty up your look, wear shoulder duster earrings that are in rage currently such as the CRISLU Chandelier Sapphire Earrings (style no. 906589E00SA). If you are in a mood to play safe, wear elegant platinum earrings studded with Cubic Zirconia, like a classic pair of CRISLU 4.3 carat-weight Iced square drop earrings (style no. 909352E00CZ)

    The mantra for fall 2011 is to wear pieces that stand out rather than blending in with your jewelry. So go ahead, get bold!

  5. How to Make Your Wedding Day Sparkle

    August 10th, 2011 by Ann Merin · Filed Under: Inspiration Board

    Every bride has her own style. Some want to be formal, some want to be glamorous, and some even want to be sexy. This year, inspired by the Royal Wedding, many brides are choosing to capture a bit of Kate’s classic style for their own day. Dress designers are rushing to fill requests for Kate inspired gowns, tiaras have come back into fashion and brides everywhere are hunting for the perfect accessories. If you are looking for wedding day jewelry and find yourself intimidated by all the possibilities, just follow these simple dos and don’ts to add just the right amount of sparkle to your wedding day look.

    1) Do find your balance.
    Kate set a new standard by not letting her fashion and accessories outshine her. She shunned the overly ornate dresses and insanely long trains of her predecessors and instead chose a look where every piece worked together to create a classic, memorable style. Follow her lead by finding some balance in your own look. If your dress is classic, match the look with a classic pearl and cubic-zirconia earrings and necklace from CRISLU’s bridal collection. If your dress is more ornate, go for something with a little more dazzle like one of CRISLU’s crystal or cubic-zirconia pendants.

    2) Do find your match.
    Hopefully you are in love with your dress – enamored by its draping, enraptured by its little embellishments. Don’t be afraid to continue that love affair by matching those little details in your jewelry. Perhaps your dress is adorned with flowers and pearls; a flower shaped pendant like CRISLU’s pearl and zirconia starburst pendant might work perfectly for your look. Perhaps your dress has some swirl in its draping; CRISLU’s pearl necklaces with zirconia swirl accent will subtly play up that detail.

    3) Don’t be afraid of color.

    Kate’s sapphire and diamond engagement ring is the ideal inspiration for the new trend in bridal jewelry: color. After all, brides come in all shapes and sizes and so do gems so don’t be afraid to think outside the box and add a little bit of color to your ensemble. CRISLU’s Kate Middleton inspired pieces are the perfect solution for any bride that wants to cross “new” and “blue” off her wedding day list.
