On the 200th anniversary of the publication of Frankenstein, comes a riveting biography of its author, Mary Shelley, whose life reads like a dark gothic novel, filled with scandal, death, drama, and one of the strangest love stories in literary history. The story of Frankenstein's creator is a strange, romantic, and tragic one, as deeply compelling as the novel itself. Mary ran away to Lake Geneva with the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley when she was just sixteen. It was there, during a cold and wet summer, that she first imagined her story about a mad scientist who brought a corpse back to life. Success soon followed for Mary, but also great tragedy and misfortune.Catherine Reef brings this passionate woman, brilliant writer, and forgotten feminist into crisp focus, detailing a life that was remarkable both before and after the publication of her iconic masterpiece. Includes index.

Nice Concept, But Coverage Feels Uneven
Color: 1pc
I really like the idea of this sunscreen setting mist and I do like that it gives the skin a subtle sparkle/glowy finish. That said, the spray itself doesn’t feel evenly distributed, and it dries almost immediately, so there’s no time to blend or redistribute the product. I find myself spraying multiple times from different angles before I feel like my skin is actually covered and protected. It’s pretty and convenient in theory, but I’m not fully confident in the level of sun protection it provides.

Very pretty shimmer
Color: 1pc
This setting spray applies a very pretty glitter when used. It does have a slightly sweet smell that is almost a watermelon scent to me. The first spray or two is a bit thick, so do not spray onto your face without priming the sprayer the first time. After that first time the sprayer works perfectly, it doesn't clog and distributed a nice fine mist.
It leaves my skin feeling softer and hydrated. It does not leave any greasy feeling and dries down quickly. I don't know that it does a ton for makeup setting, but as a shimmering oil and face and body mist it is great.

Not something I would order again
Color: 1pc
I had high hopes for this tinted sunscreen because the product description sounded like it would simplify my morning routine, but it ended up being a disappointment for me.
The SPF 50 protection is a plus, and I appreciate that it goes on without the typical white cast. However, the tint was the biggest issue. Rather than blending naturally into my skin, it sat unevenly and emphasized dry patches and texture that aren't normally noticeable. The shade also felt limited and didn't adapt well to my skin tone, leaving an unnatural finish.
The formula is marketed as hydrating and non-sticky, but I found it somewhat heavy and greasy after a few hours of wear. While it initially gives a glow, that glow quickly crossed into looking shiny. It also didn't layer particularly well under makeup and tended to pill when I applied other products on top.

Lightweight Sunscreen but Tint May Not Match All Skin Tones
Color: 1pc, Color: 1pc
This tinted sunscreen has a lightweight texture and feels comfortable on the skin. It spreads easily and doesn’t feel sticky or heavy, which makes it nice for everyday wear. I also like that it’s oil-free and provides SPF 50 broad-spectrum protection.
However, the tint was a bit off for my skin tone. Instead of blending seamlessly, it left a noticeable cast that didn’t look as natural as expected. While the formula itself feels hydrating and smooth, the shade may not work well for everyone.
It might work better if the tint happens to match your skin tone, but for me the color mismatch and slight cast made it less ideal as a daily tinted sunscreen.
