A Memoir - This Month Last Year - Jun 2014

Hi Guys,

June 2014 was the time when I got into Ster Kinekor's media previews list and started blogging about the movies that I started watching with them. It was a great opportunity and I got myself fully involved in the same. Also, this was the month when I revived my blog for several opportunities in South Africa and started to focus on building a name for myself.

1. #MissionSamsung - NX300 SMART Camera - Product Review - http://www.thelifesway.com/2014/06/missionsamsung-nx300-smart-camera.html

This post is special as it was for Samsung's first community blogger challenge which they launched with a great idea. I won this contest and got a Wild Card entry into the finals. I also received this amazing Samsung NX300 mirrorless Smart Camera. The camera is awesome as it takes very great low light photographs as well as great portraits.

2. Ster Kinekor - Cine Prestige @ Sandton City, Johannesburg - http://www.thelifesway.com/2014/06/ster-kinekor-cine-prestige-sandton-city.html

Photo Review - @AlfaRomeo_SA GIULIETTA

Hi Guys,

AlfaRomeo Guilietta is one of most favorite cars amongst a lot of people in South Africa. Here are some of the pictures clicked by one of my friends who used to own the car.

The tail lights are the eyes of something which will arouse a sense of looks into the ones travelling behind the car.

The exterior looks of the Giulietta is simply superb and you fall in love with the same instantly.

The aerodynamic style gives the car the necessary speed and grip on the road for long continuous drive.

I simply loved the car because of it's responsive engine and sporty drive mode which gives better control on the brakes and speed of the car.

Alfa Romeo has a history of great groundbreaking technology built into it's cars. Guilietta is one of the marvels from the house of Alfa Romeo.

Giulietta is a car which you would love to do a photo shoot in all weathers. I have been to Drakensburg and St Lucia on the same and really loved all my travel on the same. Kudos to the brand for making our drive pleasurable.

Cheers!!!

Product Review - RAIN Created for Living - Wild Cotton Cream

Hi Guys,

Rain - Created for living is a company which masters the art of bath and bathing products without testing them on animals. All of their products are unique and niche for those who want something different. This cosmetics company makes several herbal products like soaps, bath salts, scrubs, essential oils etc using the natural resources from South Africa.

I received Wild Cotton Cream from the company and really liked the packaging of the product. It came with a spoon which makes it really for gifting purposes. The cream is soft and fragrance is very nice. I have been using the likes of Nivea but I really loved this one a lot. My hands and arms remain soft and didn't felt dry in these winters when if you don't apply any cream, it makes them itchy. It has Marula oil which is organically harvested and utilized in making of this cream. The 225 ml pack of this cream costs R99 only and can be ordered online.




Rain has different range of products ( and using Wild Cotton cream, I can surely say that all will be nice to use and have. The website of Rain is www.rainafrica.com and company has a office in Swellendam, near Cape Town, South Africa.

The company has a full featured blog at http://www.rainqueendoodles.blogspot.com/ where the creators share the information about their various products and company.

They also run a SPA and recently launched a book Rain Book of Natural Soap Making - also which can be bought in case you have interest to make your own soaps.

Thanks a lot to Rain for introducing these products to me and I would really love to visit Rain SPA and Store in Swellendam on my trip to Cape Town in December holidays.

Cheers!!!
