GorillapodWhen I first saw the name “Gorillapod”, I thought—what strange word for a gadget. But after I saw what it does, I understood why it was named so.

The Joby Gorillapod is a camera tripod that can “climb trees”! Unlike regular tripods that you can only prop on a flat surface, the Gorillapod can be wrapped around poles and trees, and can balance on uneven spots.

Bring your niece and nephew along. If you don’t have any, don’t worry. You’ll find plenty to entertain you too. As always, there’s something in it for everyone, whether you’re two, twenty-two, or eighty-two.

I’ve recently discovered the wonders of facial mists when no amount of powder, foundation, or blotting paper could keep my face looking fresh at the height of summer. With temperatures rising to the high 30sC, a hydrating spray is the best fix. Of course, it’s not just plain water. Different brands have added minerals, skin boosters, and energizing scents to make them a handy pick-me-upper. Whether you’re a bare-faced beauty or a makeup junkie, you can find a spritzer that works best for you!
