Apple USB Power Adapter

Advantages: Looks, High build quality
Disadvantages: Expensive

...Fed up of using a USB cable to connect my ipod touch to my laptop and draining all its battery, I decided to invest in an USB power adapter. Being pretty naive at the time of purchase, I thought I had to use an apple one, so unfortunately paid £20! Looking back on it, this was the craziest purchase I have ever made, because it didn't take me long to realise, I could get the for a few pounds on the internet, with postage costing more than the adapter itself. However, that was a couple of years ago, and I have since come to realise that the £20 I forked out wasn't as bad as first seemed. The power adapter itself comprises of 2 parts which interlock together; a power pack that UK 3 pin plug slides and locks into. When put together, the plug is quite bulky, and will stick out about 4 inches from the plug - probably the biggest plug I own...

Review of Apple USB Power Adapter

DOES THE COLOUR REALLY ADAPT?

Advantages: Reasonable price, seems to blend to skintone OK, good quality, lasts a while on skin
Disadvantages: Not enough coverage for me personally

This foundation is one of Max Factor's most popular foundations and can be bought at £9.99 from Boots - and is also priced variously on eBay. I have tried all of the Max Factor foundations so throughout this review please bear in mind that I may be critical of the product and compare it to some of the other foundations from the same brand. This is probably a good thing for me to do though so that you can get an idea of which foundation is the best and know which one would suit you best. Shades I thought I would start this review with talking about shades because this foundation claims to adapt to the exact shade that your skin tone is; hence the name, Colour Adapt. The shade I have this in is called 'Warm Almond'. From...

MAX FACTOR COLOUR ADAPT FOUNDATION

Advantages: A fantastic foundation
Disadvantages: None for me

...LET YOUR TRUE COLOUR COME SHINING THROUGH With COLOUR ADAPT By MAX FACTOR I am not going to admit to how many but, suffice to say, I have had lots of years of wearing make up and looking for the ideal foundation. I think that now, at long last I have found it. In my teenage years I used to, like many young girls, slap on the foundation, in an effort to try to conceal spots, and any imperfections. I wouldn't have stepped out of the house during my teens without having first applied foundation. Then, in my later teens or early twenties, I thought that it was better to ease up on the foundation and just use a light coloured face powder, perhaps just use a foundation for special occasions. This seemed to work and gave my skin more chance to breathe and any eruptions time to heal. Now that I'm of a more mature age I don...
