I snapped up a marvellous bargain which was in PURPLE! 

A few years back I was looking around for a stylish compact digital camera. It’s not that I don’t have a camera already which captures images nicely and beautifully. I just wanted a camera of my own choice. It is part of being a woman or shall I say, a woman like myself can never have enough... LOL! 

Ever since I was young, the shade not far from pink and burgundy were ones of my favourites and still. Who would ever think I regarded it as my special colours. Do you have a preferred colour or colours? Nowdays, gadgets are becoming more lightweight and portable with sleek designs as well as choices of colours. That is why, I thought of purchasing a compact camera which will satisfy my taste buds. 

When I was looking around the town centre it wasn't just the colour that I considered highly as I also thought of the design, size, features and the price, too. The Internet was such a big help for me when I was searching and comparing a few on my list. Actually, I visited numerous websites of popular stores which sell this kind of equipment I desired to acquire. At the end, I got lucky and found one from A---s which ticked most of the boxes I required. So, I gave it a more thought first before finally placing an order on their website. 

I purchased it and received a parcel the next day via home delivery. The package contained a USB cable, a carry strap, warranty card, start guide manual and the smart compact digital camera itself. 

 

Speaking of the camera, it has a friendly–sized dual LCD (Liquid-Crystal-Display) screens; easy to grasp WiFi connectivity and a 16.2-megapixel optical sensor resolution with a F2.5 bright lens designed by Samsung. This Samsung Smart DV150F Dual LCD Compact Digital Camera has an optical zoom ability up to 5x (4x digital zoom) which offers great clarity as well as allowing you to zoom without compromising the pictures’ quality. Moreover, this Pictbridge compatible camera in purple plastic/metal body has impressive features to be proud of despite the fact that it was a reasonably good-price. 

Literally, it has 3 menus categorized as the shooting menu, the set-up menu and Wifi connectivity.

The SET UP MENU contains these features:

• sound 
• date/time 
• language 
• time type/format
• auto power 
• off image display 
• and many more

The SHOOTING MENU includes the following: 

• 13 scene modes to choose from 
• smart movie (HD) 
• live panorama 
• photo editor 
• 2.7" main LCD screen
• 1.5" front LCD screen 
• the image resolution of up to 4608x3456 
• the face recognition with continuous shooting mode  
• and many more

The latest WiFi CONNECTIVITY operates in the following useful processes: 

• mobile link 
• remote viewfinder 
• auto back up 
• email 
• SNS (social networking service) & cloud 
• All Share Play

I can honestly say that this Samsung smart DV150F dual LCD compact digital camera impresses and satisfies my taste ever since my hands got a grip of it. Aside from that, it was an exceptionally wise buy as it has a few useful and practical latest built-in additions like the 720p HD-quality MPEG video at 30 frames per second.

STUBBORN HAIR NO MORE (PHILIPS' COMPACT INTENSED PULSE LIGHT)

by: MisS VictoriA DaviD

I was taking more than 1 up to a maximum of 3... 

Years before 2013, my usual way of suppressing the stubborn growth of hair on my upper and lower lips was to take more than 1 pill of Diannette a day. Yes, you heard me right and I wasn't committing suicide in those years! 

  

Diannette is a pill/tablet (combined oestrogen and anti-androgen) prescribed by my G.P. (General Practitioner) after I successfully passed and was assessed as being well-balanced. This allowed me to undergo a series of gender assessment test here in the U.K. I was assessed by 3 women who specialised in the field of looking deeply to a person's behaviour, mental health and lifestyle, as a whole. 

Yes, I frequently took a maximum of 3 pills a day which wasn't the best idea at all. I know full well the bad side effects of Diannete and not just its reversible effectiveness. Most of us who have been taking oestrogen and anti-androgen drugs will agree that the long term 'nightmares' aren't what we would wish for. Such as, the cardiovascular risk in which blood clot will develop in a vein, also known as deep vein thrombosis; a blood clot in an artery which causes a stroke or a heart attack; the pulmonary embolism in the lungs and the significant reduction in libido called urogynecological effects. Yes, these are the known notorious side effects (nightmares) for us; before and during metamorphosis as well as after just to maintain the level of effects. More importantly, these were the main reasons why I had to look for the best alternative in achieving vellus hair or reducing the hair growth around my lips. 

I was given advice by my G.P. about the benefits of laser hair removal when she changed my Diannete prescription to a less superior one (oestrogen). Actually, she was very helpful and informative about the long term effects of destroying the hair follicle. However, prior to my G.P.'s appointment I already booked a consultation to see a dermatologist. Personally speaking, my G.P.'s advise augmented my understanding about the treatment in a more scientific way even though the information I read on the web was similar and analogous. 

My first laser hair removal treatment was with the delicate hands of a dermatologist that costed me £60, per session. I didn't mind paying the price as it's the going rate wherever you will go. However, going to the clinic twice a week with embarrassing stubborn facial hair made me very reluctant. Luckily, a few of the staff I befriended shared the good benefits of having a hand-held compact device. It creates an intense pulse which I can use at home and at my own pace. That was a great recommendation indeed as they also have this gadget in their own vanity kit. Instantly, I asked about the price and it was very reasonable. So, I searched it on the web and compared the brand names they've been using until I decided to buy this hair removal cosmetic technology. 

 

I have been using PHILIPS' COMPACT INTENSED PULSE LIGHT (IPL) for the last 18 months and it was worth every penny. It is a light weight device intended to be used/maneuvered effortlessly on your face, underarms, legs and even pubic hair. Yes, you heard me right and I tried it several times, too. Who knows you will (might) love the intense feeling? Aside from that, it has easy to manipulate functionalities which can be manipulated by your fingers but you must read the manual carefully first! That's because I burnt myself a few times for being impatient and foolish. It's part of the learning process and as they say, "no pain, no gain". If ever you are thinking of buying this handy cosmetic device, I suggest that you buy an Aloe vera plant as well. If in some cases you burn yourself accidentally Aloe vera succulent extracts have active skin treatment properties that are good for rejuvenating, healing, or soothing skin problems. 

 

For the past 10 months, I intermittently take oestrogen just to suppress the stubborn and most visible hair growth around my lips. Personally speaking, I'm still using this practical and impressive hand-held technology once a week. Yes, only once a week and only to maintain the permanent hair reduction and who knows, it will permanently removed or extinguish hair follicles. What a wishful thinking! 

This Do It Yourself (D.I.Y.) procedure was a hit-or-miss method for a few weeks which made me cry, irritated and laugh. Wait, I also burnt myself! My patience and determination have been tested for doing it all by myself in an hour or two. At the end of the hardship, a triumph awaits me which yielded remarkably magical benefits and one of these is the less in-take of oestrogen.

ARE YOU IN THE CLOUD?

Years ago, bulky external hard drives were introduced on the market to back-up the files we stored on our computers. And as time passed by, these chunky hard drives were replaced by compact USB flash drives with various designs and storage capacities. They are handy and so easy to plug and play. However, these gadgets are just the beginning of a bigger vision when it comes to e-storage!

We all want our data to be instantly accessible and secure, especially those cherished photos and important documents...

Undeniably, we human beings are forever inventive and creative. That is why, a new way of storing and sharing our data conveniently is now dominating on the web. Growing numbers of reliable companies capitalised on 4G as well as exploring the latest encryption technologies in the cloud technology which is ready for your use and can be instantly access at your finger tips only.

Technically speaking, this cloud application offers long term privacy and security for our digital life. The user account has a safe host with encryption technology and it has the highest level of security. According to the U.S. Committee on National Security Systems, the e-storage is declared worthy of use especially for “top secret” documents.

All I can say is, cloud technology has a-one-does-all application which is a secure place to archive and manage all of your digital life.

HAMA FANCY FUNNY COMPACT CAMERA CASE

by:  MisS VictoriA DaviD

 

Most of the things I acquired in life are not just well kept but also very protected in order to prolong their newness. This is my own and unique yet handy way of demonstrating my care and my gratefulness. 

When I recently purchased my Fujifilm compact digital camera, I also looked on the web for a good quality camera case at a reasonable price. It must be well-proportioned, more or less, to the dimension of the camera in order to shield from unexpected scratches. In fact, I visited the website where I bought my camera and they had one that caught my eyes. Unfortunately, it was already sold out either online or at their respective stores and also, there was no specific date of availability. 

It was a sad moment as I was looking forward in using the voucher given to me after purchasing my Fujifilm compact digital camera from them. I am a patient woman so, I gave it a few more days but within that length of time I was also searching around. Also, I found a few cases and bags online and on the high streets too but they lacked something, which made me reluctant to buy. In my opinion, it is better to buy the one you really like rather than buy on impulse and then getting the second best for yourself. Surprisingly, after 2 days of waiting Argos still had no stocks available yet or who knows, no more to come. Oh wow, it was really taking so long for them to replenish their shelves.

I was chatting to Ash about the camera case and all of a sudden, he suggested an unknown technology store on the web. He even highlighted in our conversation how inexpensive and satisfactory the products are. So, I gave it a try and was stunned to find that they had my preferred camera bag. Specifically, it was available and the asking price was lower than the Argos website. What a bargain again!

Even though I was tempted, I still didn’t purchase it right away as I just didn’t want to fall into a snare. So, I navigated their website and found their chat and email support teams who would answered my queries and concerns. I chatted to a representative who gave me peace of mind about what to do if I am not satisfied with my order. A few minutes after our conversation, I placed my order regarding the Hama Fancy Funny Compact Camera Case in Pink and it was delivered free via royal mail within 2-3 working days.

This stylish camera bag was from 7dayshop.com with an eye-catchy pink shade and a superb quality leather-look. It was also designed with fleece lining inside with an extra compartment for SD memory card and a neatly sewed padded finish outside to protect from any knocks or bumps. Aside from that, it had a stainless steel mountain climbing holder-key which can be easily attached and a belt loop which allows you to have your camera at easy reach.

I bought this 20 grams camera bag as a speculation and the end result was, I was very satisfied. Actually, I am also highly recommending the 7dayshop.com to all of you and who knows they may have what you are looking for too?
