"What's that smell...?"

Mon, 14 Jan 2002 00:46:36 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fallinlight - I bought Clarins Self Tanning Gel for AUD 34 (approx. USD 17) at a local department store after hearing good things about the Clarins fake tan range. I have unbelievably pale skin and my family is prone to developing melanomas so I'm always very careful...

Impressive results (something you'd expect at $35 a jar)

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fallinlight - Whenever I buy a new bottle of Estee Lauder perfume I always receive a big bag full of samples that I never end up using. About 2 months ago I had run out of my usual Innoxa moisturiser and decided it was time to make use of my free goodies. I tried both...

Powderfinger is My Kinda Scene

Sat, 22 Dec 2001 07:38:54 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fallinlight - "What is this Powderfinger?"

Powderfinger are a hugely popular Australian band out of Brisbane. For those unfamiliar with the band, Powderfinger sound like a distant relative of Crowded House, with a touch of U2 and even a bit of Jeff...

Mercure Hotel Sydney: Mercure Hotel: an Average Hotel in an Average Location

Fri, 21 Dec 2001 00:39:20 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author fallinlight - The only reason I chose to stay at this hotel was because I had in my possession several 50% discount vouchers for any Accor hotel and my first preference was all booked out. Using the vouchers, I got a excellent rate of AUD 110 (approx. USD 55) per room...

Nad's: a tool of punishment rather than hair removal

Thu, 20 Dec 2001 09:52:29 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author fallinlight - Nad's was a popular product on infomercial programs here in Australia about 5 or 6 years ago. It came along with a touching story about how Sue Ismiel, an innovative mum, felt sorry for her hairy daughter and created her own hair removal product as all...

And I thought it was just a marketing ploy...

Mon, 17 Dec 2001 11:19:33 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fallinlight - I love this shampoo! It actually does seem to make a difference to the smoothness and sleekness of my hair. I have quite thick hair that is prone to fly aways and becoming very fuzzy after washing. I blow dry and straighten my hair after every wash to...

Is it just me or is this phone too small?

Sat, 15 Dec 2001 10:38:37 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author fallinlight - Sure you want a small phone, but not this small. It just isn't comfortable to hold for long periods of time and it often goes missing in my handbag. The buttons are also slightly too small- this was recognised by Nokia who brought out the 8250...

Kowloon Shangri-La Hotel: Not just for the business traveler

Sat, 15 Dec 2001 10:03:40 GMT
rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fallinlight - I stayed at the Kowloon Shangri La in July 2000 as part of a Qantas Holidays deal. It was a little pricey, but it is a 5 star hotel after all.

Rooms

We booked two rooms- a twin and a single. The twin came with two double beds...

Stamford Plaza Double Bay: Don't come expecting Harbour views

Sat, 15 Dec 2001 09:34:37 GMT
rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fallinlight - I stayed at the Stamford Plaza Double Bay recently from the 7th to the 10th of December. I only stayed there because I had seen a great rate of AUD160 (approx. USD80) advertised by lastminute.com.au. It was about 55% off the rack rate and I couldn't...

It really is 'service with a smile'

Thu, 6 Dec 2001 10:21:10 GMT
rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fallinlight - I chose to fly Air New Zealand from Melbourne, Australia to Los Angeles via Auckland, New Zealand at the end of 2000 as it offered the most convenient flight out of all the Star Alliance airlines. I only had enough frequent flyer points to travel economy...

Don't ever fly American!

Thu, 6 Dec 2001 03:25:01 GMT
rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author fallinlight - I flew from Los Angeles to Chicago and back again on American Airlines and I will never do it again.

It is about a 4 hour trip and I flew over the lunch period. I had never been on an American airline before and I was puzzled by all the...

Nokia 3310 GSM Cellular Phone: A Great Little Phone

Thu, 6 Dec 2001 02:56:02 GMT
rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fallinlight - (This phone is know as the Nokia 3330 in Australia)

I've always liked Nokia's phones, and the 3310 has not been a disappointment at all. It has a large clear screen, much better than the Ericssons I had previously. There are so many features,...
