Store all your memories in a flash

Advantages: Easy to use, plug and play, great storage
Disadvantages: U3 technology can be a little annoying at first

...As anyone who has ever browsed through any of my previous review will know that I tend to like using flash drives, aka pen drives, as I find them a lot quicker to transfer data from PC to PC, as long as you do the usual virus check before hand. Anyway, I am the proud owner of several of these little technical miracles from many different manufacturers, such as Kingston, Bytestor and Integral. But I have to admit that one of my most favourite Flash drives has to be from the boffins who work for SanDisk, as I have many of these branded products with various memory storage sizes, from a mere 1GB to a rather eye watering 32GB? and it is the SanDisk Cruzer micro 16GB which I am talking about today ** First the technical bits? * Operating system required? Microsoft Windows XP/2000 (SP4), Vista and Mac X10.1.2 or later. * Windows ready...

Review of SanDisk Cruzer Micro - USB flash drive - 16 GB

Super cheap high memory flash memory stick

Advantages: Cheap!! High memory
Disadvantages: None, Nothing wrong with it!

...As with many people out there, the USB flash drive device is a very important part of my life. Any documents that i produce on the PC are always backed up on the memory stick just in case the PC crashes and everything is lost. Not only would this take a lot of time to sort out, but for many peopleit would also cost them money. Before going out and buying this, I had one of the small sony flash drives, that i have already given a review of. When i unfortunately lost that one i had to go and buy another, i needed one that had a large memory capacity, and one that wasnt going to cost me and arm and a leg. The first port of call for me is alwayd amazon, where i stumbled across this, the Kingston Data Traveller, 8GB memory stick. Not only was it big enough for what i needed, it was also a steal at £16. My device is black in colour...

Review of Kingston DataTraveler 100 - USB flash drive - 8 GB

Beauty in a flash...

Advantages: Instantly works on improving skin appearance
Disadvantages: Quite costly

...Wanting to further improve my skin, friends recommended me this flash balm so a friend offered me a sample of the product to try. I was eager to try it out! Clarins is a well-known and highly respected brand in the make up industry. Their ranges of products are all of an extremely high quality and value. Although their prices are on the high end of the scale, their products are well worth the money. So what is this Flash Balm? Clarins states that this Beauty Flash Balm will -Promote immediate and long-lasting radiance. - Firms and helps minimise fine lines and wrinkles. - Smoothes and softens skin. - Strengthens and refines the contours of the face; skin regains firmness and suppleness. - Make-up looks exceptionally radiant. My first thoughts on Flash Balm, is the name, which came across as a product that works quickly...

Review of Clarins Beauty Flash Balm

Beauty Flash Bum!

Advantages: None that I can think of
Disadvantages: Expensive and over-rated

...I was given a tube of this 'wonder cream' as a Christmas present from my in-laws just last Christmas. It sat inside my dressing table drawer until about three weeks ago, still in its original box/packaging etc, unused. I don't know why it's taken me so long to open the box and read the 'instructions leaflet' and actually use the stuff - maybe I was having a 'premonition' about it?? I have to say, Clairins Beauty Flash Balm, or, as it states in the French (also on the packaging/tube) "Baume Beaute Eclair" has been probably THE most disappointing beauty product I have used, EVER!! I've used a lot during my years, but this stuff does not live up to the hype, so don't waste your money. The tube I was given is a 50ml (1.7floz) size and I believe it costs somewhere in the region of £17.00 to £19.00 in major department stores. I...

Clarins Beauty Flash Balm

Advantages: Luxury, Feels lovely
Disadvantages: Can irritate some skins

...Rightio, before I start Id just like to point out that the cheapest price advertised with this product on ciao is £22. Thats actually higher that the RRP for this product and I know that is it £16 from wowwoman.com with free p&p. Be careful if you buy more than 1 item from this site thiough as any items you buy from Hong Kong over £18 come with an £8 customs charge. **************************** I got my Beauty Flash Balm, or Baume Beaute Eclair as it is also known, from wow woman after seeing it in endless magazines and such for years and years. For some reason I have always been mental about beauty products and since I was about 7 Ive been making a mental list of all the things I want. Whwn I got my first student loan a couple of years ago I embarked on a massive beauty splurge and have spent unspeakable amounts of cash on things...

Review of Clarins Beauty Flash Balm

Better skin in a Flash

Advantages: Helps reduce fine lines and blotchyness - protects your skin from makeup clogging pores
Disadvantages: Very expensive product for 30mls £24 approx.

...I have read various magazine articles on Clairns Beauty Flash Balm and they all were extolling the virtues of this amazing invention. To be truthful l didnt really know what they were going on about and why this lotion was so amazing! I was feeling flush one day and l thought ld purchase it. Now this product is expensive theres no 2 ways about it - 30mls was approx.£24 - not cheap. The packaging is the usual red and white Clairns trade mark tubing. Plain and simple yet effective. Your money is not going toward flash packaging! I bought my tube on the internet at the island-trading.com web site - but rest assured it is available from all good Clairns counters and stockists. So what exactly does this miracle worker do? It helps revitalise sluggish pasty skin, and it helps in the removal or discolouration and fine lines...

Review of Clarins Beauty Flash Balm

From monster to model in a flash?

Advantages: Immediate radiance of skin, great with foundation
Disadvantages: Cost

...of my best friends has very fair skin, being a red-head and she also has problems with sensitivity - so when she explained how Clarins used high quality ingredients with a more than above average percentage of natural plant extracts and that she'd never had any bad experiences with them - I decided to give the brand a go. The Beauty Flash Balm was not the first product that I tried, but having had success with various Clarins cleansers, toners and moisturisers without any bad reactions from my skin, I was looking for something which would brighten up my skin after one too many late nights or lack of sleep. Of course there is no substitute for 8 hours sleep, but sometimes we do need a little help to make up for our excesses! This seemed a good option to try. The Product and its claims: The main statement made by Clarins is that...

Review of Clarins Beauty Flash Balm

Memories are made of this

Advantages: Comapact, cheap and efficient
Disadvantages: easy to misplace because of their size

...Sick of the high cost of buying films and Photograph processing, well the digital age is upon us well and truly, deciding on the format of digital media is governed by the make and model of digital camera that you may buy, however I would recommend that your choice of camera should centre around its ability to accept the Smartmedia card.. This card made now by many companies such as Memorex and Kingston is about 40mm long and 20mm wide and thinner than an average credit card, comes in memory sizes of 4, 8, 16, 32 and 64 Mbt formats although not all cameras will accept the 64Mbt format, check with your manufacturer about your specific model, a useful size would be either the 16 or 32 Mbt size which will hold a lot of high quality photos. In the Standard format ( 640 x 480 ) mode you can squeeze 480 pictures on a 32Mbt Smartmedia...

Review of Fujifilm Flash memory

Beauty FlashBalm -AMAZING!

Advantages: Does what it says on the box, easy to use, bottle lasts long
Disadvantages: addictive!expensive!

.... Remove excess with water. Follow with Toning Lotion appropriate to your skin type. The bottle contains 50 ml. This is certainly enough to last around 3 months or so if ued daily and sparingly. At first I found it difficult to apply but only because I had the inclination to massage instead of spread. Personally, I have used it before make up every day and I have found it makes foundation look far more natural as usually it can look a bit cakey and powdery on one's face. TOP TIPS -Apply foundation seconds after putting this on not letting it settle on your face first as the fopundation will seep into the balm and look better. -If you cannot after Beauty Flash Balm, something jsut as effective is to apply Nivea sun lotion on the face before akeup.It does exactly the same job and you can use your holiday's leftovers! -Don't overdo it...
