The majority of our office documentation comes in PDF - the most known, universal format for viewing and storing documents. No matter the industry, profession or experience, everyone is still using it. The PDF�s main trait is its non-editable nature. You cannot edit or change any content inside a PDF document, by default. Two reasons why: Security - PDF format is the most secure type currently available, thus you are unable to easily alter documents. Portability - PDF files tend to always keep the layout so they can be viewed and shared across devices and platforms. Because you cannot copy or edit a PDF file, various companies develop software to help us solve that particular problem. One of those tools is Able2Extract, whose latest version is set to be released on December 5. This brand new office productivity solution is called Able2Extract Professional 11 and we had the pleasure of reviewing it prior to its release. Here is what you will have a chance to see in the latest build: PD...

Wikipedia has been the go-to source for many people over the last decade. Despite it being considered non-reliable, it is still one of the first places people look due to its ranking so high in search results. Academia is one of the industries that have not had a good relationship with Wikipedia throughout the years but this could be changing thanks to recent trends. Due to Wikipedia not being considered a reliable source, many colleges and universities have banned its use by students for research projects. However, the Los Angeles Times recently reported that some college professors are actually using Wikipedia for classes , something that would not have been allowed just a few years ago. Even though academia has shunned Wikipedia in the past, there seems to be a growing trend to allow its use in schools. There are many reasons why this could be occurring but here are some of the most common. Wikipedia Now Being Edited by Experts  Wikipedia is no longer edited by a small group of ...

Yes, more skincare questions are answered in today's post! This is part 2 of the post where Cetaphil's Regulatory Affairs Manager answers some skincare question, and busts some skincare myths along the way . And today, we're going to talk about how to simplify skincare routines, what you should do for different skin types, and answer some product questions, including those pertaining to Cetaphil products. As a skincare geek, I always feel like I already know most of the skincare basics, so knowing more about what makes a brand's products different from the other dozens of products on the market definitely excites me! My view from the Q&A session: Cetaphil's Tracy is helping to answer some questions! Fortunately, Tracy Chean, Regulatory Affairs Manager at Galderma South East Asia, was very kind to answer all of my (and everyone else's) questions! If you've read the previous post you'll already have some idea of who she is, but in short, she ensures th...

L'Oreal Tint Caresse was launched a few months ago, and basically, it's a pretty nifty powder lip tint. Yes, powder, with a sponge applicator! L'Oreal advertises this as the " 1st lip gradation cushion tint for lips that blossom with delicate colou r", and the idea is that the sponge and powder combination is supposed to make it easier for you to get that on-trend ombre lips look. L'Oreal Tint Caresse Orchid Blossom: One of a range of Tint Caresse shades The Tint Caresse seems to be developed out of Japan, or at least, the packaging and wrapping all has Japanese text. Sometimes L'Oreal does develop Asia-exclusive products, so perhaps this could be one of those - indeed, the idea of gradient lips is pretty much a Kbeauty/J-beauty sort of concept. I'm always pretty happy with such products though, as it often results in some pretty innovative and unique products. The shade I'm reviewing today is Orchid Blossom, which is one of several shades. L'O...

In addition to the skincare empties that I blogged about , I've also actually emptied some makeup! I'm particularly happy about my makeup empties, because it typically takes me longer to use up a makeup item than a skincare item. Anyway, Makeup empties accumulated over the past few months! This time round I've got some staples - like my Coastal Scents loose powders - as well as some new appearances! Most of these are products I love and would totally use again, and as we go through each of these items, I'll explain why. Makeup empties: Lipstick, liptint, eyeshadow, eyeliner, and powder! Without further ado, let's get started! Continue Reading . . .
