Lancome Bi Facil

Advantages: Good removing action and easy to use packaging
Disadvantages: A little expensive

...I have been using plain water and then milk drenched cotton for removing all the eye make up that I use. But lately I started feeling the need to get a good eye make up remover because after all it's the question of a sensitive park of the face that needs proper care. I was lucky enough to receive the Lancome Bi Facil double-Action Eye Makeup remover in a bonus gift pack on a purchase I made from lancome. This way I was able to try the product that came in a small size before actually buying it. Although it seemed a little pricey as compared to other brands of eye make up removers, I found it totally worth the purpose I bought it for. It comes in a plastic aqua blue bottle with a twist open white lid. It dispenses in a squirt like motion very easily and can be applied with a cotton ball or cotton pad quite conveniently...

Review of Lancome Bi Facil

Type R? Type Rubbish!

Advantages: road handling
Disadvantages: after sales care, uncomfortable ride, noisy

...I regret ever setting eyes upon my Type R. I purchased a fully serviced 53-plate Honda Civic Type R from a Honda dealership in Grantham in November 2006. My reasons for choosing Honda was because I deemed them to be reliable and I went through a dealership specifically for warranty cover. After 4 months of owning the car, in March 2007 there was a tremendous clanging which could be heard over the radio. The car was recovered by AA the next day who took it to Honda to be looked at. The AA man discovered that the noise was down to a lack of oil in the car ? it had burnt 4.2 litres of oil in 3,000 miles which Honda stated is normal for a Type R! Honda wanted to strip the engine at my own personal cost to see if the car needed a new engine costing £8,000. Honda advised me that this would not be covered under warranty and I would have to bear...

Review of Honda Civic Type R

What Type-R You?

Advantages: Performance, Handling, Practicality, Price
Disadvantages: Insurance, Comfort

...Let's get this straight from the start. Some people see driving simply as a means of getting from A to B as comfortably as possible, others see driving as a means of getting from A to B with as much kit in the car as possible, yet more folks see driving as a chore to be tolerated and finally there's those to whom driving is a pleasure in itself. The Honda Civic Type-R is not a car for comfort. It is not a car for lugging huge loads (although it is actually rather spacious) and it's not someting you would want to drive with a heavy heart. Oh no. The Civic Type-R is an out-and-out drivers car, designed to tweak every last ounce of enjoyment from even the most mundane of runs down to the corner shop. The R is for Racing and the Civic Type-R is the latest in the distinguished Type-R line, following in the wake of the now legendary Integra...

Honda Civic Type-R (2005)

Advantages: Speed, Handling, Engine Note, i-Vtec
Disadvantages: Old looks, Sometimes harsh ride

...I have owned a Honda Civic Type R (2005 Model) for around six months now. I had many concerns about the car before buying it, however not one of these concerns still hangs over my ownership. I chose to buy a red example, but this is personal preference. I was concerned about the road noise of the car, given the stiff suspension and low profile tyres, as I do a fair amount of motorway miles. So far, I've barely noticed. I don't find the road noise too intrusive, only on the most harsh of road surfaces. Even then, the sweet engine note is more than enough compensation. The hard suspension is a bit of an issue over speed bumps - not to the point that you hear bottoming out noises, but it will certainly throw you around if you don't slow down. The low-set stance of the car has also caused me to scrape my front splitter (lower bumper...

2007 Type R FN2 - A Great Car

Advantages: Price, Performance, Interior, Exterior, Sound
Disadvantages: Known Faults, Petrol Consumption

...I drove past the Honda Garage in October whilst looking for a Ford Focus ST (to be honest I hadnt even thought about the CTR) and saw that they had a 57 reg milano red type r with 9000 miles for £14995. My budget was 12000 plus the part exchange value of my previous fiat (total of about £14000). I was sceptical about getting £1000 knocked off but thought it would be worth a shot. I took the car out for a test drive and was impressed at how easy the car was to drive about town. I was getting 29mpg which was very impressive (dont get that any more sadly!) I waited over a month, looking at other dealerships as the prices were starting to drop with the current economic climate. The Type R was still for sale so with a bit of playing off two dealerships against each other I managed to negotiate the cost down to 13900 if I put down...

Review of Honda Civic Type R

Type R

Advantages: VETEC!
Disadvantages: interior

...I managed to get a ride in a 2004 Type R recently. My fist impression is that the car is a bit plasticy, although rattle free, but from the feel of the interior, the racing-style seats, I kinda figured you don't buy a Type-R for the awesome interior so further interior opinions won't be forthcoming. Put your foot hard down, and off it goes. Not blisteringly quickly infact, I was initially suprised about how not-fast it seemed, but I am afraid what they say is true - you hit about 6km, VTEC does indeed kick in, and it's off like a rocket.. ...unfortunately, you are then introduced to the rev limiter a tad sooner than I'd have liked - although the car revs to 8500rpm it doesn't take very long to get there. The best way to make progress was to have your foot right down until you 8500rpm, then change down and do it all again, it was...

HONDA CIVIC Type R 2003

Advantages: Speed, looks, 6000revs, and space
Disadvantages: Pricy on Insurance and Petrol

...WAW.... Well i finally have my Honda civic Type R. I was lucky to get the leather interior and aircon and cd changer which is always nice to have. Its GREAT, i was a little worried about the gears but that has seemed to be one of the best things about it. its close to the steering wheel and its just feels right. This car is for people who want to have a reliable fast car. ok im not saying that its going to blow your socks off but its quick enough to have a little fun. everything about the car is great, the looks, the feel and the sound grat. And its true what they say, it always puts a smile on your face when you reach 6000 revs and let the type R go. even talking about it puts a smile on my face its great, now i know what you probably thinking, that this dude is forver saying GREAT but guess what it really is. now...

Review of Honda Civic Type R

Honda Civic Type R 30th Anniversary Edition

Advantages: Performance, Price, Handling, Practicality
Disadvantages: Engine needs to be worked to get performance, lack of gadgets

...Honda announced this limited edition model to commemorate 30 years of the Civic model in production. As a UK model it was restricted to 300 examples: 100 Red, 100 Black, 100 Silver. I was fortunate enough to order one back in October 2002 in Silver for early 2003 delivery. The Type R in standard guise became something of a cult vehicle to many performance car enthuisiasts. This was mainly due to it's normally aspirated engine producing 200bhp (197 according to manufacturers figures), race car handling and a VFM price tag. However producing a limited edition was something of a masterstroke by Honda's marketing department, because virtually every example found a home well before they were officially advertised, mine included. To make this car that little bit special, Honda added red Alcantara Recaro seats, a leather MOMO...

CIVIC TYPE-R - CHAV'S CHARIOT or MODERN HOT HATCH?

Advantages: Performance. Brakes. Gearchange. Seats. Space.
Disadvantages: Visibility. Ride. Materials. Insurance Cost.

...As now seems the norm, I start with a brief moan about the Ciao picture for this category! Whilst putting this particular car ?on the books? in August 2007, Ciao have published a picture of the old model here ? for which there is also a category! To save any confusion, this category AND the review that I am publishing here in it is for the current model Honda Civic. Please use my own photographs for reference rather than the Ciao published one. WHAT IS IT? Bright red, that?s what it is! ??Sorry, just my little joke there. The Civic Type-R is the sportiest Honda in the range now that production of the S2000 sports car has ceased. Based on the attractive three door Civic, itself a later addition to the already pretty radical looking five door family hatch back, the Type-R has been made over into the archetypal ?hot hatch...

Review of Honda Civic 2.0 i-VTEC Type R

Great makeup remover - but don't buy it!

Advantages: Removes all traces of makeup easily, even waterproof mascara
Disadvantages: Does leave oily residue, expensive

...Lancome's Bi Facil has been my chosen makeup remover for many years now, but I must confess I have never actually bought a bottle of it - I buy so many other lancome products that a freebie always comes my way sooner or later! Eye makeup remover before I found this was a tricky one for me to get right - although the rest of my skin behaves pretty normally, I found that eye makeup removers often felt harsh on my eyes and would irritate them, or they were just too gentle and not effective enough to remove every last trace of my makeup. I am a big eyeliner wearer, so a good makeup remover is really important to my routine. Lancome market this as being suitable for removing all types of eye makeup, including waterproof products, being suitable even for sensitive eyes and for contact lens wearers and is Ophthalmologist-tested for safety. Bi...
