## Personality

According to the official website, Garnet is prideful and very hardworking. She loves to boast about her beauty, but is also very bad-tempered about it.

In the anime, Garnet is very girly, liking the color pink, cute stuff, and fashion, but she's also sassy, tough, and has a hatred towards bad men. Garnet is often sarcastic and tends to act haughtily towards people she deems inferior, as seen in her interactions with the dim-witted Ruby. But she hates it when someone insults her friends.

In Jewelpet Sunshine and Jewelpet Happiness, Garnet is a diligent hard-worker when working as a waitress in a café. She is also diligent in her performance skills in Sunshine, as she wants to be a performing actress in the entertainment industry.

## Skills

As the Jewelpet of Love, Garnet's magic allows humans to confess their love and affection to one another and also allow them to be in a relationship with their loved one.

Other than her magic skills, Garnet demonstrates good special skills regarding fashion, knowing which clothing is good for the wearer or choosing a good dress. Sometimes this overwhelms her overall personality. As shown in Sunshine, Garnet also has a good knowledge in sewing her own clothes and works for the Strawberry Café on her part-time job.

Garnet's magic skills were in the "Glass Class" ranking, on which her magic can have a success rate of 50%. She earned the Crystal Class in the later episodes in the first series. She can also wield a miniaturized version of the Jewel Stick for her magic, or even with Ruby and Sapphie, to summon other Jewelpets from Jewel Land.

Garnet also possesses a Jewel Pod as well. In Jewelpet Kira☆Deco!, its decorated with lots of jewels which matches her personality. But she also uses it to cast her magic spells.
