Let t er f r om Edit or Chief Editor | Joanna Yu | September 2020 As we are mid path into our life jour ney, one of the challenges is adjusting to the new nor mal around us. With ever ything that is going on with the pandemic, it is oblivious that ever ything we used to know will change either slightly or entirely. Be that as it may, the positive thinking is that when life jour ney comes to an end on one road, there is always another road somewhere. You may say I am naive, but I believe in us humankind. I think with loving and car ing for each other ; we will finally be seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. For this issue and the following issues, my team and I want to focus on small businesses out there fighting against this dangerous tide. Let us stand behind them with full suppor t!
Until next time,

L I UL I Th e Embodiment of Spir it , Lif e, Ph il osoph y and Passion Founded in 1987 by studio glass artists Loretta H. Yang and Chang Yi, LIULI has grown from a modest workshop in Taiwan to Asia?s leading crystal art brand. Today, LIULI has 41 galleries worldwide, and Loretta?s and Chang Yi?s artworks are collected at more than 35 museums around the world. These include the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, the Corning Museum of Glass in New York, The National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington D.C., and the Bowers Museum in Orange County. LIULI has received multiple awards, some of which are iF Design and German Red Dot. Pâte-de-verre is most commonly known as the method of glass art. The Chinese mastery of the lost wax casting technique dates back to the Han Dynasty. After that, the art was lost for more than 2 thousand years and did not reappear in the country until 1987 when LIULI Crystal revived the lost art in Taiwan. ounders Loretta H.
Yang and Chang Yi decided to honor our cultural background and bring back Liuli. The artists immersed themselves in the art blending ancient Chinese tradition with modern design. With the revival of the art, they have earned the titles of ?Liuli Art Pioneer? and ?Father of the Asian Studio Glass Movement?.It is not just art; It is a cultural brand that we have created. Lost wax art is significantly different when compared to glass blown art. Just like in ancient times, we infuse each piece with the spirit and detail that can only be attained through our painstaking process. Each piece of ?Liuli? Art goes through an extensive 12-step creation process. The lost wax process involves sculpting, silicone molding, wax molding, wax form refinement, fire resistant plaster molding, steaming for wax removal, adding glass colors to the kiln, re-firing to add and increase depth and color intensity, plaster mold removal and polishing, final quality control and engraving. This art of lost wax brings you vivid colors, depth, and amazing contrast not found in other crystal art. The unique color blends and gradients are a result of the casting and kiln-firing process. The transparent crystal is used as a base color. During the second stage of re-firing other metals are added, and the color is achieved through oxidation. The metal and high heat allow the colors to crystallize and the result is a brilliant color that never fades?the artist?s endeavor to perfect the natural and uninhibited flow of color in each piece.
When casting using the pâte-de-verre style, bubbles occur naturally. At LIULI, we believe that this effect gives the feeling of the artworks ?life force?, as if the art breathes through the bubbles.

Cluxe Jewelry VERSATILE YET UNIQUE, MODEST YET ELEGANT Ask a woman what she likes. If she answers with, ?Anything?, get her a jewelry. Trust us, you?ll never go wrong with a piece of sparkle. Cluxe is founded by a husband and wife tandem, Dan and Cathy Cortez, in September 2019. The name was coined from the words ?classic? and ?luxe,? which aptly describes the entire collection. The couple is fond of jewelries but of different types- Dan is into fine jewelries, whereas Cathy is into aesthetic jewelries. Bridging the gap between quality, design, and affordability gave birth to the brand. With only a few hundred dollars as a start-up, they took the leap and began creating their first handmade earrings as well as a handful of curated pieces. The brand is built based on the premise that a piece of jewelry should be versatile yet unique, modest in price yet elegant in design, and instantly adds confidence to the wearer.
17 | A n ah ei m M agazi n e Sep t em b er 2020
Cluxe offers both curated and handmade pieces, which are carefully prepared in their home-based Calgary office. All materials used are guaranteed nickel-free and lead-free with carefully sourced findings such as glass crystals, colored opals, faux druze, leather, pearls, and even wood chips. The sensitivity of most ears is also taken into consideration; hence, all earrings are either made with 925 sterling silver or surgical steel posts. Cluxe pieces are as diverse as the lovely #CluxeBellas, who were the first influencers who supported the brand. You can expect that their accessories are elegant enough to wear on your special day and so versatile that you can wear them every day after (without breaking the bank). Visit their online store at Cluxe.com to find the perfect piece for your wedding, everyday, events, and gifting.

F OR WOM E N OF C OL OR F R OM WOM E N OF C OL OR KCD Cosmetics is a socially-driven cosmetic company that creates makeup for women of color. They believe that their beauty is their business. They launched with the K-Line, a line of 12 shades of foundation for women with warm undertones. KCD Cosmetics decided to create a cosmetic line because women of color, specifically black women, spend millions of dollars in the cosmetic industry but still consistently have trouble finding reasonably priced, but high quality, foundation.
K C D C OSM E T I C S
Women of color deserve to be catered to in an industry where they hold a lot of spending power. They also believe that businesses should positively impact the communities that their consumers inhabit. They want to make sure that we add value to communities of color in multiple ways.
19 | A n ah ei m M agazi n e Sep t em b er 2020
Their ultimate goal is for KCD Cosmetics to grow to be a full-service cosmetic line for women of color, providing all products, especially those that women of color have trouble consistently finding. They started KCD Cosmetics for the young woman of color who is trying to figure out who she is, what she likes, and what image she wants to portray to the world. It is hard being a young woman, and it is even harder being a young woman of color, trying to figure out what you like, clothes you want to wear, how to style your hair. And what you see in movies, on TV, in stores, rarely reflect you and what you look like. KCD Cosmetics wants to make this journey easier for her, for all of them.

KCD Cosmetic?s two business partners Selena and Kamilah, have been through this and they are still going through this right now. They are able to take the pain points they have experienced and the ones their friends, cousins, mothers, and aunts have experienced and try to relieve them with this company. They are a part of their target market so they can easily talk to and listen to what KCV Cosmetic?s consumers want, and they identify with their problems and needs deeply.

W ith the wisdom of a yoga master and the attitude of a New Yorker, ?Sage Sapien? author Johnson Chong shares his frank and funny tale of kissing self-hate goodbye and the life-hacking benefits of meditation
?Out of my body was unleashed the ugliest cry I had ever had. A snotty cry where I hiccupped mucus like I was having an asthma attack. I let go of all the guilt I felt for being gay and the hate for being born into my family,? writes ?Sage Sapien? author Johnson Chong, recounting his life-altering purge in the filthy, frigid Ganga River just weeks after leaving his job at Elmo, ?the gayest restaurant in Chelsea.? In ?Sage Sapien: From Karma to Dharma,? published on August 15, 2019 in hardback, paperback and e-book by Kรถehler Books, international yogi, meditation teacher and self-mastery guide Johnson Chong weaves deeply personal anecdotes throughout the telling of his journey of spiritual exploration, revelation and liberation in his quest to help others harness the power and benefits of meditation. From beatings at the hands of his strict, traditional Chinese mother and acting out as a frustrated youth, to studying with yogic mentors and ultimately opening his own guided meditation studio (Sagehouse) in Singapore, Chong?s story is at once raw, fascinating and informative.
Imparting his esoteric wisdom with the knowledge of a yoga master and the attitude of a New Yorker, Chong is frank, funny, and a talented storyteller. While not all of us are inclined to dive into meditation to the sublime depths that Johnson does, or can afford to jet off to far-flung sacred places to study with the masters, what Chong makes clear in ?Sage Sapien? is that getting spiritual is a very good thing.

The St a t e O f Or an g e Co u n t y By Bob Br adley of Br adley- Car ter Team: Real Estate Establishment
With the current pandemic creating a sense of unease and dramatic change throughout Orange County?s economy, residents and experts who follow real estate are all hoping to predict where the housing market is headed. Some are worried about a crash, bubble or some sort of ?moment? that will redefine an OC real estate market that has remained resilient through even a worldwide pandemic. The fact remains that real estate in Orange County is hot and there are currently more buyers than available inventory for turnkey single family homes, condos and
townhomes. What people must also consider is that major markets like Orange County, San Francisco, Boston and www.anaheimmagazine.com
other high-demand cities around the nation will always have a different temperament than the rest. For buyers not affected financially by the economy or ongoing pandemic, they are still ready and willing to purchase real estate during Summer?s peak buying season. What has changed in 2020 in comparison to this time last year, besides the painfully obvious, is the low supply of inventory. In 2019 the amount of available inventory was dramatically higher and closer to averages of years before. This inventory shortage can easily be attributed to potential sellers fearing that 2020 is not the right time to sell, and with job loss at an all time high, many homeowners are simply worried about other priorities besides listing their home. Times of uncertainty are not ideal for making major life decisions, and a potential home seller often has to qualify to purchase a replacement property or even prepare for an out of state move. With a myriad of other reasons mostly tied to economic uncertainty, the result is simply not having enough sellers willing to meet the current demand for Orange County real estate.
This lack of inventory is lumped together with an incredible loan market where mortgage rates are at all-time-lows and potential buyers are finally able to afford a bit more home than usual. It could be that critical difference between owning a single family home instead of a condo or townhome. While many are avoiding purchases all together due to obvious pandemic driven fears, a record number of people are refinancing at historic rates, and many are simply still trying to find a home in many areas of Orange County without much luck. This has led to listings in ideal price ranges having multiple-offer scenarios, and even with some homes that wouldn?t have seen this type of demand if listed this time last year. Potential buyers are strongly advised to be proactive and prepared when considering a home purchase in 2020. This involves not only being pre-qualified by a lender, but also having their finances in order, including a strong down payment and shining credit score. While homes in the luxury market may see a typical longer duration on the market, single family homes, condos and townhomes at ?sweet spot? price points will see the most demand through the remainder of this year. While fears still loom of an Orange County housing crisis due to a spike in www.anaheimmagazine.com
unemployment and foreclosures, it is still too soon to see any of those numbers. It is often impossible to accurately predict what a real estate market will hold even a month ahead, but it?s smart to stay proactive and trust in the advice of a qualified lender and real estate professional to guide you through any large purchase or selling decision. Reading different mainstream websites may yield mixed insight about the economy and housing market, but in reality the principles of supply and demand combined with qualified buyers on the market will always dictate the pulse of real estate in Anaheim and the rest of Orange County. At the time of writing this article (late August 2020), there were just over 6,500 total listings in Orange County, with just over 4,000 being single family homes and only 2,232 condos and townhomes available. There were just under 800 properties under the $600,000 price point. When looking specifically at cities like Anaheim and Anaheim Hills, there were only a bit over 200 listings available.
