The one I got was the big zinc alloy heart that includes a a garnet charm and set of 15 Ruby colored sent spheres made of porous polymer clay.
The heart itself is big and magnetic and it has an antique gold finish and hangs on a 30 inch chain with loops affixed by a lobster clap claw.
The spheres are soft and come in a cute container included a the cute purple gift box with the Vessels scents of Style etched on it.
In the box, you get instructions and it says to put your favorite essential oil or perfume on the amount of beads you want, and once the oil or perfume is on them, rub them between your hands then pat dry them and place them in the locket.
I used it with my Elizabeth Arden True Love Roller ball I made so I rubbed the scent onto 3 spheres, patted them with a paper towel and put them in the locket. The sent lasted all day and it smelled so pretty, it fainted by the next day.
Then, I decided to put an essential on it and I used peppermint oil because of my allergies and I wanted to breathe easily so I followed the directions then placed more beads in the locket. You can really smell the peppermint so that was good for me for deep breathing.
Now I did have a problem, because I had no clue essential oils can irritate the skin if they are not diluted or if the skin area is sensitive, After I rubbed the beads in my hand I was left with a burning sensation on my hand. I did not understand what was going on so I immediately washed it off but the sting remained. So I looked it up online and it said once you get in contact with a pure essential oil like peppermint or any other pure oil, do not wash it off with soap and water, rub your hands or the affected area with a carrier oil, like coconut, olive almond, jojoba ECT and the burn should go away.
Well, I did that a couple of times and thankfully the sting went away in time but never again will I make that mistake. So, I suggest the company put a warning label as to wear gloves when doing this or dilute the oils when using it for the spheres. The instructions it came with said to place scented beads in jar or hands but still no warning on the hazards with direct pure oils on the hands.
Other than that, the locket “Sweet Heart” is very unique and pretty and it displays really whimsical and beautifully on the neck and I just have to handle with care next time when dealing with the oils I will be using it with, thankfully with the perfume I had no issues.
