While the crazy era of COVID-19 is behind us, we\u2019re not entirely out of the woods yet \u2014 especially with cases steadily climbing once more. It\u2019s during these times that practising personal hygiene becomes crucial. And it\u2019s no surprise that everyday objects like our phones and accessories are breeding grounds for viruses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For greater peace of mind, a portable UV sanitiser is what you need. Equipped with UVC light, this water-free sterilising box can kill up to 99.9% of harmful bacteria in just under five minutes and is big enough to fit your smartphone and everything else in between. Best part? It also doubles up as a wireless charging device, so it does have added utility in more ways than one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sun has been relentless these days, with heat waves beating down hard on us all across Southeast Asia \u2014 which means that the harmful UV rays have been working in overdrive, proving to be pretty problematic for us in the long term (think sunburns, skin ageing, and cancer). Good news? There are plenty<\/em> of good sunscreens out there on the market to make sure that your skin gets the best protection it needs. The Internet’s favourite at the moment? Beauty of Joseon\u2019s Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics Sunscreen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hailed as one of the best Korean sunscreens out there on the market, Relief Sun rose to its fame thanks to its lush lotion-like texture that is moisturising yet not heavy on the skin. It even gives a dewy finish that softens and smooths out the surface of the skin, making for the perfect primer for your makeup. Its SPF 50 PA++++ ratings have also been verified by two separate laboratories in South Korea and Spain so you know you\u2019re getting the good stuff. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s no secret that recovery in air travel demand is still soaring this year, with no signs of stopping. And with all sorts of travel deals, chances are, you\u2019ll be making that great escape at least once in the next couple of months. And as the good \u2018ol saying goes, it\u2019s the journey and not the destination, and while we are probably taking it way out of context, being on a plane for long hours is really not it \u2014 which is why comfort is key! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meet the AirFly Pro \u2014 your perfect travel companion if the uncomfortable wired earphones are stopping you from effectively enjoying the in-flight entertainment. Simply plug this bad boy in, and use your AirPods, earbuds, or other wireless headphones as per usual. We love that AirFly Pro gives you the option to pair up to two headphones, which means you and your travel buddy can watch the same show together. Weighing just 16 grams and just under 5cm in height, this pocket rocket has a battery life of up to 16 hours and is USB-C compatible, so you also avoid the hassle of bringing multiple wires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we slowly enter a new phase in life (think getting that well-deserved pay raise or moving out of your parent\u2019s home), we tend to want to treat ourselves to the finer things in life. And if you\u2019re anything like us, spankin\u2019 new kitchen appliances are among the latest and greatest, and a sure sign that #adulting is in full swing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the foodies who want to elevate their cooking game, the cult-favourite Balmuda steam toaster is one to watch. It may be a big-ticket purchase, but loyalists all agree that it\u2019s worth every penny \u2014 with perfectly toasted bread every.single.time.

Technology has evolved leaps and bounds, but one thing\u2019s for certain \u2014 nothing beats owning a physical copy of a photo you took. Thankfully, the good folks over at Fujifilm realised this and decided to bring us the best of both worlds: a hybrid polaroid camera. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What does that mean? Well, you get to enjoy the appeal of a regular Polaroid camera (think soft, grainy outputs instantaneously), but with the added benefit of checking out the shots before shooting AND printing, thanks to its digital screen! You can even make use of various lens and film effects, whether you want to experiment with a double exposure or add a touch of redness to your images. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Evo also doubles up as a smartphone printer, so you can print all your favourite memories and carry them around behind your phone, or add them to your desktop as a cute accessory. We\u2019re obsessed!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Salange\u2019s projector comes with built-in Netflix, Google Play, YouTube, and Prime Video, and can also support AirPlay and Miracast.
