Getting Your Kid Into Digital Cameras

Advantages: Features Like Any Regular Digital Camera
Disadvantages: 16 MB Internal Memory and No Zoom Capabilities

...No digital camera review on CIAO would be complete without a few entries about cameras designed for kids. After all, kids are almost universally enthusiastic about taking pictures. And parents with a love of photography often pass down their passion to their children. But digital cameras are not always kid-friendly, due to fragile construction, price, or complicated menus and buttons. The newest trend in children's electronics is a group of digital cameras made especially for small children. These cameras are easy to hold, come in bright colors that kids love, and have many of the same features as grown-up digital cameras. Kids love them. The VTech KidiZoom Digital Camera is one of the top digital cameras for kids. This camera was made with fun in mind. Kids like the KidiZoom's large LCD screen and the onboard photo editing options...

Review of VTech Kidizoom Camera Pink

Bodies!

Advantages: Great information book for young children
Disadvantages: None

...This is a great non-fiction children's book which I have used with Reception aged children (4-5 year olds). ~ Style and Format ~ The book is a board book, thicker than usual pages that are great for little hands and for those of us buying the books as it is far more difficult for any little rips or tears in the pages to take place! The book is full of great coloured photographs of children, with clear labels as to the different parts of the human body. It also contains questions for the reader to ponder and answer. It has double page spreads and is full of information aimed at young children. ~ Content ~ The book begins with a double page spread, front photo and back photo of a young boy. The face, back, elbow, thigh, knee, leg etc are all clearly labelled. The next focus is on the 'skin and bones'. It introduces...

Review of Let's Look at Bodies - Lorenz Children's Books

Bamboo Body

Advantages: long-lasting moisturiser with an agreeable smell
Disadvantages: doesn't produce giggles

...I needed new body lotion and decided to try a new brand. My eyes were wandering along the shelves at the chemist?s and came to a halt at the NIVEA section. This was due to the shape of the bottle the NIVEA designer(s) had created: the upper part of the right side is slightly curved in (see piccie at the top of the site). The bottle looks elegant and cries out to the consumer, ?Grab me!?, at least to the right handers among them. I looked closer to find the right skin type and discovered ?normal to dry skin?, just what I need. Under the name of the product NIVEA Body Lotion Happy Time half a slice of orange is depicted lying in some white sloshy stuff - obviously the body lotion - and underneath stand the words ?Feel-Good Sensation? and Bamboo Extracts. Bamboo! This must be one versatile plant. We?ve got a bush in our garden, I...

THe Sanctuary Body Butter

Advantages: Rich and creamy, quality product
Disadvantages: Smell not for everyone

...The Sanctuary Body Butter. The Sanctuary began as a Spa in Covent Garden over 30 years ago. Their philosophy is all about providing the time, space and expertise for women to renew that glow. I've never been to the Spa but friends have been and they do say that it is a wonderful experience and definitely a very upmarket product. The Sanctuary beauty products were produced in 1998. Customers had been wanting to take the spa experience home with them without needing a therapist or special equipment so they came up with the idea of selling their products. Apparently they are only sold exclusively at Boots and of course you can buy them in the spa's themselves. I've always liked the look of the products as I think they have quite an expensive, quality look about them. I have used the foaming bath soak for quite a while but this is...

Review of The Sanctuary Body Butter

Beautiful Body

Advantages: Great scent, moisturising
Disadvantages: Pricey, does not absorb easily

...I actually received thhis product as a present in part of a gift set, with a bottle of the perfume and a shimmer stick pulse point perfume. I really love the fragrance of the perfume, quite floral and woody (lotus blossom, liquid amber, black orchid and mahogany wood) and very distinctive. I was interested to see how this translated into a body lotion. The bottle itself if made of pretty thick plastic (it's quite hard to squeze the product out) and opens to a capped end with a small hole in - much like sun lotions. The cream is pretty thick and smells quite strongly of the euphoria scent. On application, the product goes quite a long way and not a lot is needed. However, I found that it did not absorb very easily into the skin and needed quite a bit of rubbing in. Once it had been absorbed, my skin felt soft and smelt great...

Lovely Body Butter!

Advantages: Smells lovely, responsibly produced, works well
Disadvantages: A bit expensive at full price

...A few years ago a friend of mine bought me a gift set from The Body Shop for Christmas and amongst the items contained therein was a pot of body butter. I really wasn?t expecting to like it at all; from the term ?body butter? I expected it to be really greasy and oily. I was quite wrong and have been hooked ever since! The one I am currently using is the Satsuma Body Butter which normally retails at £12.20 for a pot containing 200ml although there is an offer on at the moment reducing the price by 20% so it is only £9.76. If you do like Body Shop products it is worth keeping your eyes open during the year as they often have special offers so it is worth stocking up when things are cheaper. If you are a regular customer it is also worth investing in their reward card. It costs £5 per year but you get a free gift worth £5 on your...

Review of The Body Shop Satsuma Body Butter

A truly remarkable camera.

Advantages: Hd video recording, great photos, looks good
Disadvantages: EXPENSIVE!

...This camera is one hell of a camera and I was not disappointed buying this. I have been making some extra cash doing photography for parties and similar types of things just lately and this has been my new best friend. It is reliable and takes very high quality pictures as well as having the ability to record HD, yes! HD!, video at resolution 1080p (which is a lot better than most cameras). First I'd like to comment on the design, looking both professional as well as striking; this really gives off the impression that you are a professional photographer and it is a pleasure and a pride to take photos with it. It takes pretty impressive photos too; I have always had excellent results with this camera. It has 21.1 megapixels, meaning that the photos are crystal clear and allowing you to digitally crop and enlarge photos beyond...

  The Body Shop - Too Bad You Can't Buy Replacement Body Here!

Advantages: Excellent products, great smell and environmentally friendly.
Disadvantages: Very expensive products.

... Have you heard of ?The Body Shop?? It is one of the most visited beauty shops by women and MEN equally . . . The reputation and the popularity of the shop is not only throughout the UK but also spread globally. There is no surprise that it had over 2400 shops worldwide diverse between small shops and mega stores expanded over sixty one different countries in most Europe, the Middle East, South Africa and the United States of America! Many years ago, while I was struggling to look for a decent job to survive in the United Kingdom, I worked at one of their smaller shops for over a year. As a result, I?ve learnt a lot about customers? preferences, how to communicate and satisfy clients and most importantly, I?ve gained knowledge about beauty which was an advantage to me in future jobs. What is The Body Shop? Oh...

Vibrate your Body into shape!!!!!!

Advantages: Great Hz range, well priced, sturdy, good size platform
Disadvantages: There are cheaper alternatives just as good

...Can you really vibrate you way to a fitter body. The answer to that question is yes (much to many of my female friends delight!). Sports and film stars alike are using this new technology to aid they?re training in the pursuit of increased physical performance or just looking good and the results seem to be extremely positive indeed. HOW DO THEY WORK? (apologies to those who read my review on a similar product, having worked in gym?s I have used and trained people using a number of different models). The idea for the machines were first developed by Russian scientists, who, during the cold war wanted to find a way that would keep there astronauts in shape while they were in space. The problem in space is you cannot train very easily because of the ?Zero gravity?. Now the idea was that by standing on the vibrating...

The perfect body exfoliator

Advantages: Melts onto the skin; leaves skin soft and smooth; lovely smell
Disadvantages: Expensive

...Exfoliating is one of the most important steps of my skincare routine and one that makes the biggest difference to my biggest body irk - the tiny bumps that appear on the tops of my arms when my skin is a bit dry. The Clarins Toning Body Polisher is one of the best exfoliators I've found and one I wouldn't hesitate to recommend. It's both a sugar and a salt scrub and is packed with essential oils - rosewood, geranium, hazelnut, mint, palm, rosemary and shea - which all work to moisturise the skin, as well as exuding gorgeous smells. It has a really fresh, intense and invigorating smell which really perks you up in the morning - initially it's very strong but calms down when you start to use it. To use, you simply apply a generous amount to damp skin - the moisture means that the scrub almost melts into your skin and the grains don...
