This lavishly illustrated guide to iconography explains through words and pictures the history, meaning, and purpose of Christian icons as well as the traditional methods that religious painters use to create these luminous, spiritually enlivened works of art.

Solrunn Nes, one of Europe's most admired iconographers, illuminates the world of Christian icons, explaining the motifs, gestures, and colors common to these profound symbols of faith. Nes explores in depth a number of famous icons, including those of the Greater Feasts, the Mother of God, and a number of the better-known saints, enriching her discussion with references to Scripture, early Christian writings, and liturgy. She also leads readers through the process and techniques of icon painting, showing each step with photographs, and includes more than fifty of her own original works of art.

Deeply inspiring and utterly unique, The Mystical Language of Icons will inform both those who are familiar with the rich tradition of religious art and those who are not. It also serves as a powerful devotional resource in its own right, one that Christians everywhere can turn to again and again.

Really impressed!
Scent: Island Coconut, Size: 0.35 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I use this brand as my daily body sunscreen and love the smell, so I was tempted to buy this lip balm. I'm so glad I did! It smells great, and my absolute favorite thing about it is that it seems to last all day. I wear it with a light lip liner and my lips stay soft and moisturized after a long work day, 2 meals, etc. It does have a bad taste, but not nearly as bad as other brands I've tried. If you do the lip stick trick with your finger its unlikely to get in your mouth, unless you bite your lips. So its been a great protection against lip biting as well.

Funny after taste
Scent: Island Coconut, Size: 0.35 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Usually love Hawaiian Tropic products but this lip balm has a weird taste. The spf is good, if you don't mind the taste.

Hawaiian Tropics highly recommended for sensitive skin.
Scent: Island Coconut, Size: 0.35 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Love this product. This is my first summer using it. I was not disappointed. I have super sensitive skin, and can’t use most products. One thing I did notice was a few times I would get a small pimple or blackhead along the lip line. The dermatologist said it was clogged pores, but no reason not to continue using it. I have tried a few other brands and had more breakouts/ blackheads. So I keep going back to Hawaiian Tropics.
