Now that I own an iPhone, I tend to stay in-the-know about the latest, greatest and most fashionable advances in technology. One of my more recent discoveries is Tenerarca.
If you think hard, plastic cases for your iPhone are sooo, last year, then you’ll love the fashionable and functional Tenerarca UP-SKIN leather iPhone cases that are thin, super soft and actually eliminate 99.99% of harmful bacteria not only on the phone but on your hands!
“PAR’SK USA’s proprietary antibacterial, sanitizing, and negative-ion-generating process called UP-SKIN, an environmentally friendly method of treating leather. A Tenerarca case can eliminate up to 99.99% of harmful bacteria, not only on the electronic device but also on the user’s hands, says PAR’SK USA Inc. president Mr. Eskei Park. It also emits negative ions, which studies have shown enhance feelings of well-being.”
Not only are their cases equipped with that fancy UP-SKIN technology, but they are made from premium leather. Their iPhone and iPad cases combine classic style with ultramodern functionality you won’t find anywhere else.



I received the iPhone 5 Case in Aqua Green to review about 4 weeks ago. My first impression left me immediately pleased with the super soft feel, easy grip, and classic style of the case. After 4 weeks of continuous use, my first impression stands uncorrected. Being that it is 0.4MM thin and is ultra light, it was easy to slip into my pocket, unlike my other heavy, bulky iPhone case. The case was easy to grip and I could flip open the cover with one finger to quickly answer calls and flap it back over to protect my screen from my face during a phone conversation. I usually get makeup foundation and facial oil all over my screen during a call, so I especially appreciated the cover flap on this case that protected my screen from getting makeup and oil all over it. The cover withstood the abuse of my makeup and skin contact quite well and didn’t show signs of staining or dirt even after the continuous 4 weeks of use.
As for the case emitting negative ions that “promote feelings of well-being”, I can’t say that I noticed any difference in my mood while using the case so you will just have to take their word for it on that front!
They have covers for the iPhone 4, 4S, 5 and the Galaxy Note 2 as well as covers for the iPad, iPad 2 and the iPad Mini. They come in a range of colors including black, tan, red, blue and aqua.
