Great review, thank you for sharing. The bracelet still looks amazing. The wear and tear is just making it more special because you love your piece and your wear it

[@dpretero]

I just purchased this bracelet one week ago and watched every single KZbin review out there on it prior to buying. (Including your first one!!) for the past week, I have been going crazy wondering about the clicking when it’s closed and if it was normal or not. I can’t say enough how very glad I am that you mentioned that!!! I feel so relieved. Thank you for an awesome follow up review. Cheers!

[@helloxluxury]

Aww thank you so much for your sweet comment! It makes me so happy to hear my videos are helpful 🥰 I hope you’re enjoying your new bracelet! 💖

[@emcminormusic6437]

I just purchased this bracelet too and have the same issue with the clicking and I would able to unscrew open with my fingernail. Should I bring it back to Cartier?

[@dpretero]

@@emcminormusic6437 it seems like the clicking is normal. I think it’s just the sound of the slight movement between the locking mechanism and the part of the bracelet that clicks into the other side. I’m guessing if it was completely flush you wouldn’t be able to turn the screw to lock it without rubbing and causing friction scratches/damage. As far as opening with your nail. I’ve heard other people say they can open with their nail. I have to say that makes me a little jealous of how strong your nails are! I’ve tried. And my nails are so soft they just bend. Lol I hope that helps put you at ease.

[@helloxluxury]

@@emcminormusic6437 if it’s only a faint clicking sound, it should be fine. But if the screw feels loose, then definitely take it to a Cartier store and have them inspect it for peace of mind 😌

[@catalinaalvarez7131]

Great review! Love the details

[@helloxluxury]

Thank you 🥰

[@chocolatecoco8570]

Thanks for the review! I prefer the smaller size to the larger size I think. I don’t know I’m debating on the small size bangle vs the regular size cuff but I think I’m leaning towards the small size bangle because I think it’s really pretty and more dainty. Nice for anyone really but I’m pretty petite so I think it’s nice.

[@helloxluxury]

Definitely go for the small size 😊 it’s beautiful and dainty - perfect for everyday. And you can always stack it if you’re after a more statement look.

[@allpiecesofamber]

Your review, wear/tear, and tips have been so helpful. Your bracelet looks great! I never knew about Cartier and the copyright they have for the pink gold. I always wondered why their pink gold looks so unique and soft. I purchased my small love in pink gold last month and I haven't taken it off since. I love how shiny, dainty, and how it looks when stacked with other jewelry. I'm hoping to add a small JUC with diamonds in the pink gold soon. Great video! TFS

[@helloxluxury]

Thank you so much for your sweet comment 🥰 ahh the small JUC with diamonds is on my wishlist too!! One day 🤞🏻😆

[@cutiepiegabby21]

Great video as always! I would say that I have the diamond sm JUC on my list, but I’m thinking of long term. I have heard that the bracelet mechanism did not snap back into place and out of shape. I also have heard the info on the Sm love and how the hinge is an issue. I am not sure if I should just add another original love or try one of the smalls to stack with original.

[@helloxluxury]

Thank you for sharing! I haven’t heard any issues with the SM bracelet so far, I guess it’s still fairly new compared to the traditional love. I think the mechanism of the small JUC will be okay if you keep it on and just be careful when taking off sweaters ☺️

[@anc895]

I have the same in the 6 diamonds and wear it on it’s own. I love it :)

[@helloxluxury]

Ahh the 6 diamond version is beautiful! 😍✨

[@WarriorRani]

Best review video. Wish I watched it before I got my bracelet. I went back to the store too because of the clicking! My hubby said I'm crazy lol

[@helloxluxury]

Thank you! 🥰 haha definitely not crazy 😆 always good to be on the safe side and know for sure than risk having thousands of dollars fall of your wrist 🤪

[@shenazbeckr264]

Hi, Thank you for the video, I love the beaded bracelet too, could you please tell me where you got it from? :)

[@helloxluxury]

It’s from Ana Luisa ☺️ I think they’ve discontinued it now, but they have a similar style on their website now ☺️

[@annietran2688]

Did you mentioned that your SA took out a few thin love bracelets and they were all making clicking noises? I just purchased mine a few days ago and it’s making clicking noises and was concern. By the way, you make the best reviews on jewelry and handbags here on KZbin. Thank you!

[@helloxluxury]

Yep! I think it’s normal and part of the mechanism. I’ve had mine for over two years now and have never experienced any issues. Thank you! You’re so sweet! I really appreciate the support 🥹💞

[@denisedastur9772]

I just bought this bracelet and I love it! I know you have Van Cleef and Arpels on the other arm. What is the beaded bracelet? Love this whole look you have going on!

[@helloxluxury]

Thank you! ❤️ the beaded bracelet is from Ana Luisa. I got it a while ago so I don’t think they make it anymore but I’ve seen that they have a very similar looking one ☺️

[@denisedastur9772]

@@helloxluxury ...and I see that a few others asked that in the comments after I posted this. You are kind to repeat this info for me!

[@catalinaalvarez7131]

I got this bracelet as a anniversary present from my husband and i LOVE it. Went into the store cuz it was clicking too! But is the system of locking all good.

[@helloxluxury]

I love that you love the love bracelet 😆 haha sorry, just had to be said 🤣 oh yes, the clicking is concerning at first but good to get an opinion on it. I haven’t had any issue with mine ☺️

[@_juju_5]

Love your beaded gold bracelet … can u let us know where u got it from. Thanks.

[@helloxluxury]

Thanks babe! ☺️ it’s the Roma Bracelet from Ana Luisa but I think it may be discontinued now 😣 you can find similar looking bracelets on their website ☺️

[@bb-bd5ne]

would anyone agree that the small version of the love bracelet makes it have a completely different look than the thick, making it much more refined and less basic?

[@helloxluxury]

Totally! 😍 it’s much more understated and elegant, plus it’s easier to stack with other bracelets without looking too bulky ☺️

[@kellyc9846]

How did you decided between the thin vs classic? Because it can be stacked? Thanks

[@helloxluxury]

Yep and because I prefer daintier jewellery. The classic felt too thick and statement-like on my wrist for everyday wear, and also the price was a lot better to justify! 😆

[@Andrea-uq2db]

if you stack it does it get scratched with the other bracelets?

[@helloxluxury]

It will inevitably scratch it because it’s metal banging against metal. I guess to minimise the scratching, you could wear more fine/dainty bracelets rather than chunkier and loose bracelets like bangles.

[@tehrahedwards4504]

Like your Cartier braclet

[@helloxluxury]

Thank you 🥰

[@Sandra-bq3vm]

Just ran into your video since I am thinking about adding this after getting the just un clou small bracelet last month. I heard that the price increase might be happening soon! I am contemplating whether to get this or a Chanel purse since the price of this is similar to the mini classics. Also, do you think the pink gold will also wear well? I heard that the pink will eventually wear off and become similar to the yellow gold. Are the qualities of the two gold the same? Also, since I am a runner, would this be comfortable when I am running? Would the sweat damage the gold over time.

[@helloxluxury]

Hey! Thanks so much for your message 🤗 there’s only a subtle difference between the rose gold and gold, and I’ve also heard the rose gold will fade into gold overtime. Sweat wouldn’t damage the gold as it’s 18K so it won’t tarnish if that’s what you’re worried about. I think you should go with the same gold as your JUC bracelet so they match ☺️

[@Sandra-bq3vm]

@@helloxluxury Thank you for your reply! I think I will take the spurge and go for it! I think just wearing it all the time and looking at it will bring me a little extra joy every day! Both rose and yellow gold are stunning!

[@helloxluxury]

Definitely! Plus you’ll get your cost per wear on it more than any handbag because you’ll be wearing it daily 😋 also not the mention gold is more valuable 🤣

[@Sandra-bq3vm]

@@helloxluxury Yes I agree! Thank you so much for responding and thank you for your videos!

[@manbagmike4478]

I will honestly say that I LOVE this bracelet. I wish I could have it. But, I am a total klutz, and would (sadly) ruin it. Still. It is BEAUTIFUL!

[@helloxluxury]

You’ll be surprised! I’m a bit a of klutz too and it’s not so bad 🤣 it’s scratched up for sure but still beautiful ☺️✨

[@aprild9601]

Where did you purchase your bead bracelet?

[@helloxluxury]

It’s from Ana Luisa ☺️ they don’t make the exact same one anymore but they have a very similar one on their website ☺️

[@lilacbabexo]

Are you happy with the size you got? Do you wish you had size down? I feel like our wrists are similar but I can’t decide between16 and 17cm ahhh

[@helloxluxury]

Hi there! I definitely wouldn’t size down. If anything, I always thought about sizing up to 18cm, but it was waay too loose and it would rotate around my wrist. I prefer a more loose fit but the 17cm is more snug. I’ve gotten used to it now. It all comes down to personal preference. I don’t like the feeling of something being stuck to my skin, if that makes sense 😅 try going in store if you can to try them on! ☺️

[@lilacbabexo]

Thank you lovely! I wished they did half sizes!

[@thuvo5167]

I have the SMALL love bracelet and the small Juste un clou… Beautiful but look so thiny on my arm … now i don’t know which piece i get next. LOVE bracelet regulär or can Cleef allhambra??? What you think?

[@helloxluxury]

Hello! They’re both beautiful pieces! I would go for the VCA to change it up but the only thing is it’s more delicate so you’ll most likely have to take it off every night or before you shower. If you prefer to leave your jewellery on 24/7, then the regular Love bracelet may be the better option for you!

[@lorettaperrone4032]

Please don’t rotate your bracelet as it ruins the hinge, I did this once and had to have it repaired. My SA told me the hinge is delicate and you should be careful when taking your bracelet on and off. I have the regular love bracelet as well and I have had no trouble with the screws loosening. Thanks for such a great review.

[@helloxluxury]

Oh interesting! Thanks for letting me know ☺️💕

[@Buttercookiesssss]

Mine is just over 3 months and i sent it back for repair yesterday 🙁 i couldn't close the bracelet fully to turn the lock 😭 i suspect is bc i remove it everyday..... I will be good to wear it 24 7 when i get it back ❤️

[@helloxluxury]

Oh no 😰 I’ve never heard of that happening! Hopefully you won’t experience any more issues when you get it back from repair ☺️

[@rolandom29]

Cartier’s bracelet sizing is tricky. You have to take into account if you want to stack or not, your unique wrist shape, comfort level, temperature/climate, body weight, etc. I wish Cartier offered half sizes. Both of my wrists are 17 cm in diameter. The 18 cm LOVE is snug for my liking, while the 19 cm size LOVE is loose. An 18.5 cm LOVE would have been perfect. Anyway, I ended going with the 19 cm LOVE and 18 cm JUC

[@helloxluxury]

I had the exact same issue! It would be amazing if they made half sizes. The JUC is next on my list 😍 thank you for sharing ☺️

[@rolandom29]

@@helloxluxury Also, I think you made a solid choice by keeping the snug fit since you mentioned your wrist diameter is a little under 16 cm. Your bracelet appears to have more movement than the snug fit that I tried on

[@sweetdink5]

Do you notice that your screw is easy to turn? I just got mine a week again and I’m paranoid of how easy the screw turns…i can even turn it with my fingernail is that normal?

[@helloxluxury]

Hello! The screw on the small love bracelet doesn’t turn as easily as the normal love bracelet. I haven’t had any issues with mine loosening. I do check it ever few months. I can also turn it with my nail but that doesn’t worry me - it is a screw after all. If you think it’s too loose, you can always take it in store and get it looked at - just to be on the safe side!

[@stephaniecorxo]

I’ve also had the same problem a few days after first getting it. I sent it in to get repaired and after getting it back it fell off my wrist again within the first 48hrs

[@dannahx]
