Elemental Beauty Mineral Make-up

Advantages: Pure ground mineral make-up, no hidden additives, no bismuth
Disadvantages: None that I can find

With the sudden surge in popularity of mineral cosmetics, it is often difficult to work out just what is good and what isn't. So many products claim to be 'pure' minerals but it's not always the case when you look at the ingredients with talc being used to a lesser or greater degree in some high street brands as a filler. Thankfully Elemental Beauty have brought out a range of pure mineral foundations, concealers, blushers, bronzers, glimmers, eye shadows and finishing powders that are excellent value for money and totally pure. The foundations come in two types - 'Soft Focus' and 'Healing' since they realise that not everyone has the same requirements.

Review of Elemental Beauty Mineral Make-up

xbox live thumbs up

Advantages: brings gaming to life
Disadvantages: bit pricey

When I first purchased my xbox 360 We did not have broadband, a few months later my friend bought a 360 and i took the decision to go online. I was not sure if the xbox live would be something i would use for the unforseeable so i opted to buy the 3 month pre paid subscription . I paid approx £12 if i remember rightly. The subscription is easy to set up just scratch off the number panel on the card and enter this to the xbox live server through your xbox,create your member nickname and fill in your personal details and your away. Trust me xbox live brings gaming to life this has revolutionised gaming and has to be tried, if you have an xbox buy xbox live if you have'nt then buy an xbox ...

Review of Microsoft Official Xbox 360 - Xbox Live Gold Membership Card

You can make your mind up but I loved this book!

Advantages: An enjoyable light read
Disadvantages: none!

I have read many books by Jill Mansell and I have to say that I would rate 'Making Your Mind Up', which is her latest one, as one of her best. If you are not familiar with Jill Mansell, I think I would say that her novels fall into the category of 'chic lit' although I'm never quite sure exactly what that is! My own definition tends to be light modern fiction. Well Jill Mansell seems incredibly good at this and all her novels are very accessible and easy to read. I think that one of the most important things that influence whether you enjoy the book are the characters - you have to like them and you have to care what happens to them (and I would say this is the same whether you are reading the greatest classic or the latest chic lit). I definitely liked most of the characters in this book. The plot also has to be believable ...
