The New Selfie Bag from Cotton Bag Co | Review

[Ad- gifted product] After reviewing the previous Selfie Bag from Cotton Bag Co, I was really excited to see they were doing a new and improved version! I do take a lot of selfies, which you can always find on Twitter or Instagram.  Like most of the people from my generation, I love taking pictures of myself and sharing my thoughts and feelings with the world. The new Selfie Bag is basically a tool kit to take the best selfies while on the go and at events – which is the best place to take pictures, really, as it shows a bunch of different places and stories about your life. Let’s get into the bag;

Planet Eat – Netflix for Food Videos | Review

[Ad- gifted product] We have subscriptions to most online, video watching platforms. I watch Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime Video, Amazon Huey – so switching between these different platforms is something we’ve always done. When I heard about Planet Eat, a new food TV subscription platform, I was excited to try their free month of viewing! I watch a lot of food programs and miss Food Network – a TV channel in America, so I was hoping this would replace my craving for some amazing food TV.

Planet Eat actually has a lot of shows already, despite being quite new to the market, however most of these shows are only 10 to 15 minutes long, making them into mini-videos. Many of them are recipes, tutorials and master classes, which can really help if you don’t like reading recipes or want to learn new skills when it comes to being in the kitchen. Each episode also has a trailer video you can watch to get a better feel of the show. I found myself getting the most out of master classes and really enjoyed the detailed programs on taking pictures and telling a story through food, but I felt the videos could be bulked out with the presenter actually taking pictures and showing them to us, instead of talking so much about equipment or just showing images taken earlier, instead of the entire process of setting them up.

Throwing the Best Party with Moonpig

[Ad- gifted experience] Moonpig ran a virtual event earlier this month that was all around throwing the best birthday party possible – a skill that everyone should need to have at one point in their lives, at least. This event showcased Moonpig’s mobile app for ordering gifts, cards, balloons, and flowers as well as making the best cocktails and flower arranging the flowers we then got. This masterclass of three different aspects of throwing a party made for a fun and interesting virtual event that showcased a lot!
