Yes...you totally read that right. Once, a few summers ago, Robert Downey Jr. (known most recently for his roles as Iron Man and Sherlock Holmes, although he’s had an enduring acting career) visited my crystal shop, Mimosa Books & Gifts.

Whilst his designer wife spoke of her love of Black Tourmaline and Pink Quartz. “We both like crystals, as in crystal energy. I have lots of Pink Quartz and Black Tourmaline in my bathroom. It’s quite spiritual out here in Los Angeles, all very positive,” Mrs Beckham has said.
Angelina Jolie and Crystal Healing
According to several sources, Angelina Jolie is also a big believer in crystal healing. The online American magazine, Entertainment Wise, states that Angelina has been collecting crystals for years. Furthermore, she is a firm advocate of their healing power. “[Ms Jolie] believes [crystals] hold sacred, ancient energy and she wants that around her. She’s spent hundreds of thousands of pounds on them,” a friend of Angelina’s told the online magazine.

Rose quartz is the stone of love, protection, confidence, self worth and peace. As well as this, it is utterly gorgeous to look at.
