With unmitigated honesty, a touch of humor, and sensitive illustrations by Quentin Blake, Michael Rosen explores the experience of sadness in a way that resonates with us all. Sometimes I'm sad and I don't know why.It's just a cloud that comes along and covers me up. Sad things happen to everyone, and sometimes people feel sad for no reason at all. What makes Michael Rosen sad is thinking about his son, Eddie, who died suddenly at the age of eighteen. In this book the author writes about his sadness, how it affects him, and some of the things he does to cope with it--like telling himself that everyone has sad stuff (not just him) and trying every day to do something he can be proud of. Expressively illustrated by the extraordinary Quentin Blake, this is a very personal story that speaks to everyone, from children to parents to grandparents, teachers to grief counselors. Whether or not you have known what it's like to feel deeply sad, the truth of this book will surely touch you.

Nice product but doesn’t look good on everyone I guess.
Size: 6.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’m kinda in denial trying to convince myself I don’t look greasy, but I do. Bought it because of the Youtube ad, I guess it just looks better and softer in darker skin. I look oily, not glowy. You will stick it EVERYWHERE, from your friend’s car to a random wall whenever you go. It’s oily but not sticky. Smells nice and has a lovely glitter to it that I am invested in convincing myself I look good with. Maybe my skin doesn’t contribute to the cause, but I’ll use it every time I go out because I am the most stubborn woman in the world and I am just CONVINCED I can look as smooth and beautiful as the girl in the ad. Someday I’ll tan, who knows.

Glowy skin hydration
Size: 6.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Golden goddess results unlocked !!!! If you’re not tan it adds a nice glow. But if you’re tan ( fake or not) this product will make your skin look hydrated, glowy, bronzed and highlighted. I’m on the older side so I have some crepey skin on my inner arms, this makes it look 100 times better. I also only self tan, I find this helps my “tan” last longer. Has a nice tropical scent that gradually fades.

Soft Bronzy Glow
Size: 6.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I received a stinky oil in a subscription box, I love how soft it makes my dry diabetic skin feel. Oil leaves skin much softer than a moisturizer does, however, I was put off by the strong magnesium smell. I found this Vaseline Oil online and decided to try it instead. Firstly, the smell is so much more enjoyable and the shine it left behind is unmatched. I used it directly after a shower, applying it to my skin while I was still partially wet. Doing this, traps moisturize in the skin and leaves behind a beautiful bronzy glow. Unlike my moisturizer, I find I do not need to reapply daily, instead I only use every 2 to 3 days because it keepsy skin so very soft. I would recommend this to any diabetic with dry skin.

Gorgeous Glow
Size: 6.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This products leave the best subtle glow! The shimmer last very long and it isn’t greasy. I apply with a body brush or my hands and it spreads pretty evenly.

Works great, a tad "tacky" in feeling!
Size: 6.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Mixed review. The product smells great, provides good moisturizing effects and glistens on the skin. Drawback, it remains sticky on the skin. It is an oil so some oily feeling is to be expected, but the tackyness is what I dislike. Especially when doing outdoor activities where everything that drifts in the wind will stick to your skin due to the oil. If you do not mind that feeling, you will love the product and the results.
