the first daywear Canadian diamond collection

Arctic Circle Diamonds has unveiled the latest designs from its Northern Lights collection of Fairtrade gold and Canadian diamond jewellery, created in collaboration with British jewellery designer Sarah Jordan.

The daywear diamond collection is designed for women seeking elegant and eyecatching diamonds perfectly suited to everyday wear. Combining Sarah Jordan’s signature flowing style with Arctic Circle’s Canadian diamonds and Fairtrade gold, Northern Lights pays homage to the shimmer and shapes of the aurora borealis, witnessed over the Arctic region where the diamonds are mined.

Those clever Danes have a special word for cosy “hygge” (pronounced hue-gah) – the essence of which is roaring fires, candlelight, good company and a glass of something rich, warming and spicy. Stylish winter brides should look to channel their inner Viking, and fully embrace hygge in their wedding menu design this season.

DO...try a fibre brow gel such as the newly launched must have tinted brow mascara from Lord & Berry. It is designed to hydrate, enhance and define your eyebrows whilst tinting. A great product for filling in brow gaps whilst still looking natural.

DON’T... go product-free. Whilst the natural look is fully promoted, a little bit of love and attention before leaving the house will go a long way when it comes to your brows. Even if it’s a quick 3 second sweep with the eyebrow brush.

DO...match your brow colour to your roots. This is the most effective colour matching system to achieve a natural look and framing of your face.
