Giveaway Time: Property Of... Marcus Work Bag

The guys at Property Of... are big fans of Alphabeticalife and I'm a big fan of both my readers and the bag brand. So we decided to come up with an amazing giveaway that I'm sure you'd all love.

Marcus Work Bag - Features a coated cotton canvas outer, soft leather handles and an adjustable shoulder strap. It fits a 15" laptop, documents and more. 

Property Of... is giving away FOUR Marcus Work Bags (worth $329) to four lucky readers. Here's what you have to do:

- Submit a "What's In Your Bag?" photo and e-mail it directly to emptycity@gmail.com. Use "Property Of... Giveaway" as your subject.

- You can also do it through Instagram! All you have to do is follow me (@alphabeticalife) and mention me in your "What's In Your Bag?" post.

-No Instagram? Tweet it! Follow me on Twitter (@alphabeticalife) and mention me in the tweet along with your photo.

Pretty easy right? I will then randomly choose the winners based on the various submissions I get from Instagram, Twitter and my e-mail. Once I've chosen four winners, I will post their "What's In Your Bag?" photos in a separate blog entry. So what are you waiting for? Start snapping and get those submissions going!

Dermagenics Purifying Smart Cleanser

The team over at Dermagenics recently sent over a bottle of their Purifying Smart Cleanser. And can I tell you, Dermagenics products are a godsend for people with sensitive skin such as myself.



After washing my face with it, I didn't have the usual tight-skin feeling I get when I use other facial washes. Why? Because the Purifying Smart Cleanser is free from soap, sulfates and strong scents which would wreak havoc on sensitive skin. It does, however, have a faint lavender scent which is both soothing and relaxing.

Want to try it for yourself?

Two lucky readers of Alphabeticalife will get the chance to win a bottle of Dermagenics' Purifying Smart Cleanser. All you have to do is e-mail me at emptycity@gmail.com and tell me what scent the facial wash has. I'll pick two winners at random and this contest is open to readers from all over the world.

Best Face Forward

I have a secret: I suck at taking care of my skin. Save for moisturising, I don't exfoliate, I'm fond of popping pimples and I don't remember the last time I used sunblock. Throw late nights and smoking into the mix, then we've got a recipe for disaster. As a 26-year-old with sensitive skin, it's about time I took skincare a little seriously.



When Dermagenics got in touch with me and asked if I wanted to try their Men's Anti-Aging Cream, I replied with a resounding 'yes'.

The cream plays an all-in-one role and is housed in one convenient package. It's a moisturiser, night cream, under-eye cream, anti-aging serum and toner all at the same time. Infused with natural goodness such as jojoba oil, green tea, vitamin C, squaline, artemia extract, peptides and sodium hyaluronate, the cream penetrates deep into the layers of the skin and kick-starts the cell rejuvenation process.

In the three days that I've been using the product, I can say that my skin is showing promising signs of improvement. I'm excited to see more results as the days go by.

Want to try it for yourself?

The kind folks at Dermagenics are giving away prizes for two lucky readers of Alphabeticalife. Simply e-mail emptycity@gmail.com and tell me one of the main ingredients of the anti-aging cream and I'll pick two winners at random. This contest is open to readers from all over the world.

UPDATE
I've already chosen two winners and will be sending an e-mail to the lucky gentlemen shortly. Thanks to everyone who joined!
