‘In focus’ is a fortnightly, online update on things that focus team has loved. New places we have discovered, food we’ve enjoyed and events that’ve made us happy – here’s a glimpse into our lives from the past two weeks.
Limited edition Wet n Wild Crystal Cavern collection
It’s no secret that crystals have special balancing and energising superpowers. The new makeup collection by Wet n Wild, with multi-dimensional hues and fragrances inspired by Rose Quartz, Clear Quartz, Amethyst and Jade, is set up to do exactly the same!
The collection includes four eyeshadow palettes, four lip glosses and a spray mist. As always, everything is cruelty-free, environmentally-friendly, of unparalleled quality and is extremely affordable. Lip glosses are priced at $8.99, eyeshadow palettes are $13.99 each, while the face mist is $12.99.
The best part about this collection is that everything is designed to mix and match. Each of the four glitzy-coloured lip glosses are named identically to one of the eyeshadow palettes and matches the colour theme. But of course, go wild and create your own unexpected mixes for a bolder, more dramatic look!
Do you want to win all four Crystal Caver gorgeous lip glosses and facial mist? Visit our Facebook page to participate in a giveaway before 7th of May.
Avengers: Endgame
After a year of waiting, speculating, guessing and eager anticipation, the final episode of the most colossal movie project in history finally hit the screens last Wednesday. And we can’t thank our country enough for a chance to be the first ones in the world to see it without any spoilers and leaks!
Unlike the previous movies that were part of something bigger, but also great to watch on their own, Avengers: Endgame is a true tribute to Marvel fans who religiously rewatched and looked for new Easter eggs in movies over the past 11 years. It has so many links to previous episodes, that although you’ll still enjoy three hours of jam-packed action and emotions, if you haven’t seen the other Marvel movies, you won’t get half of the hidden references and double meanings that make Endgame so epic and, let’s admit it, so touching.
Although we can’t imagine why you wouldn’t have seen the movie yet, for those who haven’t, we hope you appreciate how beautifully we’ve avoided any spoilers here 🙂
BLAST speaker, Ultimate Ears
Portable wireless speakers have been around for a while but, nevertheless, it’s still amazing that something so small can produce such outstanding sound!
BLAST by Ultimate Ears has clear and balanced 360° surround sound and a deep, rich bass texture that makes you feel like every song is literally hugging you. It’s voice-controlled so it’s easy to turn it on or pick a song even when the speaker is positioned out of your reach on the top shelf. BLAST is water, dust and drop proof, which also makes it the perfect companion on a picnic or long hike (it weights literally nothing – you won’t regret having it in your backpack).
This little thingy is so smart, it can even check the weather for you! Just sayin’.
Papa Mo’s
There is something special about this area of Papamoa, and Papa Mo’s restaurant itself, that turns even a basic Saturday coffee break into a really outstanding experience. The upper floor deck, overlooking beautiful white houses on a quiet street, is a vibrant mixture of beachy and industrial aesthetics with exposed concrete floors, brick walls and wooden tables and lots of space and fresh air – that’s what we love about this place so much!
No one will ever leave Papa Mo’s disappointed! There are plenty of meat, seafood, gluten-free and vegan options that can be served both as ‘social platters’ to share, or as an individual dish.
