Pucker up with Max Factor!

Advantages: Stays on and refuses to budge
Disadvantages: CAn cake on the lipts if your not careful

...it's time to move on from lipstick covered teeth yet! All in all this is a must have for the party season and has many more positive points than negatives, I for one won't be using anything else and I'll just remember that after a few hours I need to use the top coat and I'm away! I can't live without this product and even my Mother owns one or two of them now. If you don't believe my claims nip into a chemist and try a tester if your not brave enough to put it on your lips draw a line on your hand and leave to dry a minute then try removing it?! Case closed lol PS! Boots have an offer on, spend £12 on Max Factor get free goodie box and in TK ax you can get 4 lipfinity lipsticks for £10 in a case (regular size) and in TJ Hughes they have limited colours but are £2! It really pays to look on markets and in bargain buckets you...

Review of Max Factor Lipfinity

Relax with a Max

Advantages: Nice flavour
Disadvantages: Artificial ingredients

...Imagine my relief when I found out that Pepsi made a low calorie drink aimed squarely at the male market. Yes I know that it is perfectly legal for us chaps to consume diet Pepsi or diet Cola but I always found it a little embarrassing asking for the aforementioned beverages. I always felt that somehow my masculinity was being called into question if I entered a shop and picked up the diet version of any drink, real men simply don?t consume diet drinks. That is until Pepsi Max hit the shelves. When Pepsi Max was launched the adverts featured young sporty chaps performing all sorts of extreme pastimes such as bungee jumping, skateboarding and BMX racing. That?s the sort of image I want when I buy a drink. Although it?s fair to say my days of BMX riding are well behind me and the thought of attaching a piece of elastic to my ankles...

SPEEDING

Advantages: you "feel" that you are getting to your destination faster
Disadvantages: death, injury, you often dont get there any quicker, people are ignorant about it

...~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Speeding ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I felt like having a good old debate and seeing as I am currently learning to drive I thought speeding was an appropriate topic. Any one who says that cars are not dangerous in my opinion is rather ignorant. Although cars are now an invaluable part of our society they still have great potential to be dangerous. There are different factors which can cause car related accidents and these include speeding and the use of drugs or alcohol whilst driving. It is estimated that speed is the major factor in around a third of all road accidents. Now ok, so road accidents can range from being minor to severe and we don?t tend to think about it until our lives are somehow effected by it. Just over a week ago my boyfriend witnessed a man reversing his car at a high speed...

Pepsi to the max

Advantages: Great Taste , Better than coke
Disadvantages: Might be too sweet for some

...* Pepsi Max * Pepsi Max , as they describe it themselves is a 'Low calorie cola flavoured soft drink with sweetners'. * Packaging * Pepsi max come in a plastic bottle with the pepsi symbol 'engraved' on the bottom along with ridges on the bottle. The plastic label has some shapes which i cannot identify in colours of black and dark blue. The pepsi is written in white capital and the mac is written in larger capitals in red. The pepsi symbol is below. On the bottle of the label are the words in white capitals with a red background ; Maximum Taste , no sugar. The lid is an 'open by hand' screw on lid. It's black and has the pepsi symbol on it. * Taste * The texture of the pepsi is very thin. It's very sweet (sweeter than coke). I like the fact that it's really sweet however I can understand why others may find it sickly...

Disadvantages: Slightly expensive

Need For Speed: Shift

Advantages: Looks Good, Sounds Good, Great Cars
Disadvantages: Over a Bit Too Quickly

...The latest installment of the Need for Speed, Shift, series reverts (thankfully) back to the track-racing percision of ProStreet. After a few more dyer attempts at the even-more-overdone-than-WW2-shooters street racing scene, the new game heads back to some of the most popular race tracks in the world. Slightly Mad Studios have managed to create an accessible racer that's easy for a beginner to pick and jump into, but at the same times appeals to experts. Anyone who has previously played any career driven racer before will know what to expect; you start with a small amount of money to buy a bottom-of-the-barrel car, finish a few races and upgrade your car, finish a few more and buy a better car. There are plenty of cars to choose from and they all behave differently making the driving experience for each unique. The cars are broke up...
