Writers of the modern essay can trace their chosen genre all the way back to Michel de Montaigne (1533-92). But save for the recent notable best seller How to Live: A Life of Montaigne by Sarah Bakewell, Montaigne is largely ignored. After Montaigne--a collection of twenty-four new personal essays intended as tribute--aims to correct this collective lapse of memory and introduce modern readers and writers to their stylistic forebear.
Though it's been over four hundred years since he began writing his essays, Montaigne's writing is still fresh, and his use of the form as a means of self-exploration in the world around him reads as innovative--even by modern standards. He is, simply put, the writer to whom all essayists are indebted. Each contributor has chosen one of Montaigne's 107 essays and has written his/her own essay of the same title and on the same theme, using a quote from Montaigne's essay as an epigraph. The overall effect is akin to a covers album, with each writer offering his or her own interpretation and stylistic verve to Montaigne's themes in ways that both reinforce and challenge the French writer's prose, ideas, and forms. Featuring a who's who of contemporary essayists, After Montaigne offers astartling engagement with Montaigne and the essay form while also pointing the way to the genre's potential new directions.Binding Type: Paperback

So far, loving this! I have super sensitive skin and it's causing no issues!
This serum is really nice and easy to apply! It’s on the thin side, so I like to tilt my head upwards and gently release a drop or 2 at a time onto my face. Rub it in from there.
If you drop this into your hand to apply first, you’ll be wasting a lot of product, so don’t go that route.
I do have some sun spots I’m looking to tackle, so hopefully this will help with those!
I also live in a city with high levels of pollution, so I can use all the antioxidants I can get!
I'm excited to see if this helps with some sun damage and spots that I've accumulated over the years.

Absorbs quickly
I like this ampoule. It has a nice gel-like viscosity and absorbs quickly into my skin and has not caused any irritation. I like that it has no smell. Since I have been using it, I have noticed a general lightening of the dark spots on my cheeks. I have noticed that my skin tone looks brighter since I have started using this. I will continue to use this ampoule in hopes of seeing even more improvement. Overall, I am very happy with this ampoule and think it does a good job of evening out my skin tone and lightening dark spots I have on my face making my skin look brighter, in general.

Does nothing for my skin
I have been using this for a little over a month and this has done nothing for my skin. For the price, I'm disappointed, I expected to see at least some little results after 1 month but nothing for me. I will not purchase again.

Its fine... but didnt really work for me.
No negative side effects, but I just didn't find it to lighten the areas I was hoping for.
** Hi a little about me and my reviews.
I regularly review skin care products and have a base line for my reviewing process.
Firstly I have very dry, sensitive and aging skin.
I prefer oil based products, and I prefer something with a natural scent like lavender, rose, rosemary.
I try to keep my reviews concise but I wanted to share my star ratings as I see them.
5 Stars - Would use every day. Great product, does great things!
4 Stars- Great Product but not for everyday use, 2-3 days per week or spa day special.
3 Stars- Not great, not awful, just ok.
2 Stars- Not good, but not injurious
1 Star- Terrible, burns, or unsafe product

Finally a razor for women that's gentle where it matters and powerful where it counts.
I could tell right away that this razor was designed with women in mind. It petite enough to fit in curves, but not so small that you spend all day grooming. Bonus feature - unlike some razors you can charge it with or without the stand. For someone on the go, having a rechargeable razor that's compact for travel and uses the same cord as my phone is a HUGE win. Other things I liked: it has a nice touch to it and it balances well in my hand. It's easy to hold and maneuver. You can use it both as a trimmer for quick shaping and for a close shave. A note on this: Any shaver will pull hairs if you use it incorrectly. Start with the straight trimmer for longer hairs. Watch your angle and adjust as needed. Do an internet search for videos to help. Use the guards if your hair is especially long. Only switch to the round shaver with really short hair or stubble. I had zero issues with pulled hairs. It truly is painless as advertised. The shave quality was close and baby smooth with zero skin irritation. It functions exactly as advertised and the battery life was excellent. Truth be told, it's winter so it's been a while since I last shaved my legs. I needed the extended time. Having both a trimmer and razor in one tool is fantastic value and time saver. Clean up was simple. I'm happy to finally have a women's razor that works as it should.
