Hey guys! This past week has been NUTS! I finally got a chance to actually sit down and type this blog! The expo this past weekend was a lot of fun and I can't wait until I go to the next one and hopefully actually tattoo at a convention! I'll make a separate post on the expo because I am still editing the video and the pics.
Today's focus for this blog is the two dermal piercings I finally got the nerve to get after 5 years of wanting to get it. As I mention in my video below, I used to not like piercings, but being around the tattoo industry full time now, it has definitely sparked my desire again to get this piercing.
I decided to get two piercings next to each other, because I always like the way this looked as opposed to a single one. I found an image of what mine look like up close. I went with a beautiful green/blue opal stone jewel and when I look at it up close, they look like little tiny "earths" on my face. I love it! You can find this particular dermal on ETSY (you can click it for the listing!)

Overall, it wasn't too bad. It did hurt a bit and there was some pressure, but really happy I went through with it!
Last week before the tattoo convention, I also went ahead and got a couple tooth gems done. My mentors girlfriend, Robin does tooth gems at all the shops and even did them at the convention! I think they look so fun and since they're not permanent, I went ahead and put a sapphire and diamond one on my right canine.
I show it more closely in the video above.
I love it and I hope you enjoy my video and blog post talking about it! Thanks for stopping by and I'll see you in the next video/post!
XOXO, Cecilia Marie
