Harry Potter Wizard Training Wands Review

As a big fan of the Harry Potter series, we all have fond memories of them practising their wand twirling action and casting the spell over and over again, hoping that they’re able to cast the right spell and not accidentally cause anyone to vomit slugs!

To celebrate the Fantastic Beasts 2 movie release on this coming Friday, we have received the brand new Hermione Granger Wizard Training wand from Jakks Pacific to practise casting spells and challenge ourselves to learn all 11 spells! Besides the Hermione Granger wand, the other wands in the range include a Dumbledore Feature wand, Voldemort Feature wand and Harry Potter Feature wand.

Do you love coming home at the end of a hard day’s work to freshly vacuumed carpet/floor? Thanks to this stylish and affordable eufy RoboVac 11, it has made my ultimate dreams come true!

During these two years, this great looking and affordable robot vacuum cleaner has received plenty of great reviews and we are delighted to be reviewing it!

Tsumbay Wake Up Light Alarm Clock Review

Tsumbay wake up light alarm clock is a neat and stylish touch LED bedside lamp, shaped like a rectangular cylinder. It is very lightweight, portable and small enough not to take up too much space on your bedside table.

This alarm clock comes with one USB charging cable and instructions. It can run on the rechargeable battery (lasts around 2 to 10 hours depends on the brightness level) or while plugged in through the USB adaptor, which is not included. When it is charging, the screen will display the battery with a flash icon. However, this icon will continue to display even when it is fully charged. The icon will only go off when unplugged. When the battery is low, the battery mode icon will flash.

Biocell Face Mask Review

What is your beauty ritual? For me, I like to wash my face daily and top it up with moisturiser twice a day to keep it soft. Then over the weekend, I like to pamper myself with a face mask. Applying a face mask is not only for relaxation and having ‘me’ time, it also provides a deep cleanse, reduces pores and gives me a glowing and healthy skin! I always love the feel of my soft skin after each treatment.
