Friday Finds, October Birthstone Style: Pink Opal Earrings

My childhood best friend was born in October, and I remember being a bit confused that she had two birthstones. Opal and pink tourmaline are both pretty, so I went spelunking the caves of Etsy with an open mind. The pale shine of pink opal earrings caught my eye first.

Pink opal is a natural gemstone that is only mined from the Andes Mountains of Peru. It vibrates at a gentle frequency that is believed to calm the wearer's emotions and bring tranquility to their aura. This soothing pink crystal is often used in meditation to balance the Heart Chakra. I can see why - just looking at the color of these beautiful jewelry designs makes me feel peaceful.

Speaking of pink, don't forget to enter my Breast Cancer Awareness Giveaway!

Perhaps it's the hot weather and the drought in Delaware, but I have been daydreaming about being a mermaid. That's why I gleamed to discover the Etsy Blog's Mermaid Makeup Tutorial when looking through the list of articles where my new giveaway sponsor's products have shimmered. Madison Street Beauty has dozens of magnificent eye shadow colors that could enhance the sexy siren in any creature. One lucky winner will even get to choose five full size eye shadows, as well as a foundation, a setting powder and a blush or bronzer sample for free. Amethyst, an opaque vegan eyeshadow of medium purple, would be my first pick, fins down. Look at those sparkles! If choosing only five colors is too difficult, why not try some natural samples first? The owners, Bridget and Rhys, are currently celebrating their one year Etsyversary and offering an astonish...
