Touch Magic

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

...With the birthday money I got I wanted to spend it on something special, something that I would use a lot and wouldn?t just stick it in the cupboard at the end of the day. My younger sister?s birthday is 2 weeks after mine, and she wanted to buy an IPod, so I decided to give her mine for a little bit of money, and then buy this. She now is buying her own, new IPod so I?ve lost a little bit of money but I still brought this. Purchasing I purchased my IPod touch pretty quickly, I found a deal on Curry?s website which meant I had to pick up the IPod within a few hours, but it was worth it for the deal I got. I was willing to pay the £165 that you will pay for this item, but I wanted something else, something that made it worth spending the £165. Luckily the one and only day I checked the currys website, they had a deal on. If you...

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...

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...

Review of Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat (Radiant Touch)

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....

iTouch!

Advantages: Packed with applications, very handy and easy to use.
Disadvantages: Keyboard is hard to use, no flash player and not very durable without a case.

...If it was not for the fact that I needed more than 16GB at the time of buying my 160GB iPod Classic, I would've bought one of these. Obviously now, there is the 32GB iPod Touch, but this is still not enough. The iPod touch therefore is for people who have some money to spend and just want to put their CD's onto the iPod. It is packed with features and in essence is a PDA without the office applications. It comes pre-loaded with Safari (Apple's own web browser), the iTunes store, built in iPod, a special YouTube application for viewing Youtube videos and many other features. Firstly, while I'm thinking about it, the iPod touch doesn't come with a flash player, which is the reason why there's a special YouTube application. This means that when browsing safari, you can't watch embedded video clips or clips off other video sharing sites...

iTouch

Advantages: Brilliant
Disadvantages: Nono

...I am not going toi pretend that I can inform you of everythng there is to know on the iPod Touch, they are so extensive in there functions i think it would just be boring you anyway! Let me start from the beginnning, I saved up for the christmas just gone, and i wanted to buy my two younger brothers something which they would really appreciate and enjoy. A friend said why don't i buy them one of these, now don't get me wrong, i know what an iPod is, but i had no idea about an iTouch, therefore I was reluctant to spend £170 each on them. When I first saw them, I was a little disappointed, I would have thought that Apple would offer you some inclusive accessories with the £170 iPod that you are buying, but really i was just a black thing in a small clear case. On inspection of the item i realised that it is a very smart and very...

A Touch Too Much?

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

...I've used an iPod since they released their second generation, original iPod with the touch wheel that lit up red. I then replaced that with a 30gb iPod Video in Black which has lasted me quite a while and still works brilliantly. With the launch of the 2nd generation iPod Touch, I have decided to upgrade again. I was setting my heart on the price of the iPhone on O2 PAYG being reasonable, but I may have been a little deluded in thinking that Apple would make it competitive enough that it wouldn't make a dent in most people's savings. So when they released it at £350 for an 8GB, I focused on the Touch instead. I ordered it direct from Apple on Sunday evening and it arrived on Tuesday via UPS, so the speed was excellent beings as the website stated it would take 3-5 business days to ship. Unfortunately it arrived too late in...

YSL Touche eclat

Advantages: easy to carry around
Disadvantages: slightly pricey

...After hearing how 'fabulous' YSLTouche eclat was, I decided to buy some for myself as I was on the plane returning from my holiday. I must say that I'm now a self confessed Touche eclat believer, I find it brightens up the eye area and helps define the your bone structure if applied in the right places (I use it below the eye area making sure the inner corner is well covered, as well as around the sides of the nose and the inner chin area). It's also great for covering spots! I would recommend that you apply it either on its own or AFTER using face powder, I find it looks smoother when applied after using foundation/face powder. If I am feeling tired or in need of re-freshing, by using Touche eclat it always does the trick! O and dont rub it in to the skin, gently dab it in with the end of your finger!...

Review of Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat (Radiant Touch)

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...

Review of Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat (Radiant Touch)

To Touche or not to Touche?

Advantages: Great packaging & easy to use
Disadvantages: Not a concealer

...YSL's Touch Eclat is very popular amongst my friends and quite obviously women who love make up and even those who don't really use make up. However I must state that in my opinion this product is not really a concealer contrary to many peoples beliefs. I would describe Touche Eclat as a highlighter only, which definately helps reflect light off the dark circles under the eyes as well as for lightening any other dark areas on the face. I would still recommend using a concealer as well as Touche eclat for better coverage, especially on more mature or lined skin. I love the packaging, it's one of those items you feel proud to whip out of your make up bag! However I think there are many reasonably priced cosmetic items out there that will do two jobs in one and last you a very long time....
