Touch Magic

Advantages: Great sound quality, great applications
Disadvantages: Battery Life, Fingerprints, could be better

...itself. With the addition of Wi Fi it allows you to control Itunes on your IPod instead of on your computer as well, it also allows you access to the App Store, which allows you to download many different applications for your enjoyment. Design/Look When you get your IPod, you should get it in quite a small box. This small box contains everything you need, from a USB cable, headphones and IPod Dock adapter for the IPod Touch, as well as a very small and compact instruction manual. When you take out your IPod you?ll see it?s in a plastic casing. Once this is out, I have to say I was shocked at how thin it was, I had seen them demonstrate it to me, but really hadn?t looked at it. The IPod is only 8mm thick, which is usual for most IPod?s but considering how much this IPod does I have to say I was expecting something a little bit...

touch of magic- still using it, still the best!

Advantages: light and even coverage, beautiful packaging (looks expensive) and overall it's fantastic!
Disadvantages: can smell "damp", price, doesn't last long enough!

...note, the pen is solid so at least you know that the 2.5ml of magic is not going to leak in your favourite handbag. I have converted most of my friends to this product (which is handy incase I forget mine when we're out) and some of us have discovered a flaw. The pen starts to smell damp after only using it once or twice. Other friends pens don't smell. How ever many I buy, they smell and others buy equally many and they don't. Our conclusion- if the touche eclat is applied over foundation, it starts to smell, but if applied on its own, it doesn't. Coverage is fantastic, the light reflecting particles are flattering in photos. Dab the pen instead of rubbing (particularly under the delicate eye area) but be careful not to wear too much as you can have a white area round your eyes (Geri Halliwell). My gripe about the product not...

A "Touch" of Class

Advantages: Widescreen, Wi-Fi, Easy to Use
Disadvantages: Outer Shell Shows Dirt, Slightly Pricey, Speaker Volume Is Low

...When purchasing my iPod Touch 32Gb, I must admit that I did have my doubts over the hefty price tag. But nearly a year later it's nice to know that my money has been well spent! Design: The most striking and obvious feature of this iPod is it's beautiful design. Very appealing to the eye, and with a slick chrome finish, the Touch is a very classy product indeed. However, in my own opinion, the chrome finish can easily get smudged which can become irritating for people (like myself) who like to keep their iPod in pristine condition. But there are solutions to this, such as protective cases, which can be purchased for a relatively decent price. The screen is generously large and with a very crisp finish it makes navigation and video playback a real pleasure. Also, a really nice feature which wasn't present on the previous model...

A Touch of magic

Advantages: Ease of use
Disadvantages: Very light fluid

...I have purchased more concealers than possibly any other item of cosmetics, and there are some which cost quite abit, which are just left idle. The Loreal touche magique concealer prooved to be quite a good product, the concealer itself is a light fluid, which does not make your eye area feel taught. It has great staying power, and it covers a majority of sins. The only thing it doesnt cover too well are broken veins, but I have other tricks up my sleeves for those gremlins. I purchased this, as a cheaper version to the y.s.l touch eclait, which I have to say for the money it was rubbish. The loreal touche magique is a lighter wand, and not quite as chunky, therefore application is easier. To use the wand you just turn the opposite end to the brush, and you hear it click as it dispenses the concealer. The amount that comes out is...

Review of L'Oreal Touche Magique

My Magic Wand

Advantages: It works on dark circles
Disadvantages: It is expensive

...As beauty products go, this ones been done to death. It?s more talked about and hyped than the entire Lush shop put together. But what is this magical wonder product and why the hype? Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you Yves Saint Laurent Touché Éclat?(Sounds posh doesn?t it? Believe me, it is!!) I have been hearing about Touché Éclat (that?s Radiant Touch to the likes of you and me, although you can see why YSL stick with the Touché Éclat label worldwide ? Radiant Touch sounds like cheap and nasty hair colorant) for many years now (it was launched in 1992) It?s a celebrity favourite, but I was never sure exactly what it was. It appeared to be some sort of concealer. What it actually is is a fluid highlighter that contains light reflecting pigments, to disguise dark circles and give the face?well a radiant touch. But does it do exactly...

Fingerprinting phone shocker

Advantages: first class call reception and range, looks stylish, hard wearing, easy to use
Disadvantages: fingerprints seem to be attracted to the base unit

...When it comes to replacing anything within the house I have little input mainly due lack of general interest so it is left to my wife to co-ordinate the purchase of pretty much everything. Whilst I may seem a touch lazy I would add that she selects what she wants while I just work my butt off to pay for them. Not being one to settle for a plain replacement telephone that would cost around the £30 mark my wife decided she really loved the look of the MagicBox Touch cordless telephone costing £75 for just one handset. When told how much it had cost I went weak at the knees and expected a top of the range telephone. Thankfully and over time I have learnt to appreciate that the premium cost of the phone has ensured the purchase of a remarkable piece of equipment. The telephone sits within a heavy cradle unit made from polished plastic. My...

Review of Magic Box Touch 100 Triple

Touche Eclat? Touche Eme!

Advantages: Excellent coverage, Easy to apply
Disadvantages: Price can be a put off

...I have never bought any Yves Saint Laurent products in the past, I've always been tempted by the shiny displays in my local Boots and Debenhams but the price has always put me off. Why pay £20ish for something you buy for £4 in a cheaper brand?! After actually trying this product I am converted and will definately be purchasing this in the future! I was recently lucky enough to be sent not 1 but 2 Touche Eclats for free to trial and give my opinion on. I did a quick google search and the cheapest I could have purchased these for was £16.50 excluding delivery so I was over the moon that I was finally going to be getting to try this expensive brand for free! When I received my products I took a moment to have a look at the packaging, it is a gold pen with a hefty weight and 'feels' quality. It is the type of product you pull out of your...

A Touch Too Much?

Advantages: App store, built in speaker, external volume control
Disadvantages: None (so far)

...the afternoon to charge at work so, like a small boy at Christmas I rushed home and plugged it in as soon as I stepped indoors. Upon opening the boring cardboard box it was packaged in, I found a delicately wrapped perspex box in the bottom. I took off the security seals and carefully opened the clear container. I couldn't help a smile creep across my face. I removed the Touch from it's plastic cradle and found the headphones, USB cable, quick start up guide, cleaning cloth and dock adapter all neatly presented in it's own little compartment. As this was it's first charge and could determine the length of it's battery life, I decided to leave it plugged in for a little over 4 hours. The charging indicator changed after approx 2 hrs but I thought I'd try and get a little more juice in it. After removing all protective film and stickers, I...

Need a touch of radiance?

Advantages: Make you look and feel good
Disadvantages: Does nothing for large bags

...So far I do not have ?bags? under my eyes. What I do have are two children that love to wake me up in the middle of the night, therefore I have dark circles 2-3 times a week. Being somewhat a celebrity gossip/fashion aficionado I had heard a lot about YSL touché éclat. I have wanted to splurge for a while but my local Boots store didn?t have a YSL counter, so I have only had the yearning and not the actual product so far. Then, about a month ago I was browsing on the Boots website, looking for special offers on holiday products (off to Lanzarote very soon, hurrah!) I decided to do a search. There the blessed item was in all its glory. At £21 it is expensive, but as I don?t wear make up at all unless a rare occasion comes along and I get to go out, I felt justified buying it. It arrived along with the rest of my goodies from...

ipod touch review

Advantages: Attractive, easy to use touch screen and applications
Disadvantages: Expensive and the headphones are not very durable

...In my opinion the iPod touch is the best in the MP3 player category. With features such as the applications and album artwork it is much more than just a music playing device. However, I would recommend most music listeners to go for a higher memory option. The headphones are not very durable however, and are expensive to replace. That s one drawback of the iPod, all the accessories and software updates tend to be expensive. With the accessories it may be best to look elsewhere than the official Apple products as there are good alternatives. Unless you want a simple music player, in which case I would recommend the iPod shuffle, I think this easily beats the competition in attractiveness and, like most Apple products, just being cool! Its is not the cheapest in its category, but I think it is without a doubt the best....
