Raymond Briggs' world-famous graphic account of one ordinary couple's attempt to stand firm in the face of nuclear annihilation remains as powerful today as it was when it was first published in 1982.

Following Jim and Hilda Blogg in the days before and after a nuclear attack on Britain, When the Wind Blows is alternately funny, shocking, heartbreaking and devastating. Few can read it and not be deeply moved.

Despite writing some of the most beloved and enduring children's books of all time - The Snowman, Father Christmas and Fungus the Bogeyman - When the Wind Blows is very much a story for adults. Not only does it articulate the fears of the generations who grew up in the shadow of the Cold War, but it also speaks today of our own fears, living as we do in a nuclear age.

Written and illustrated by Briggs, When the Wind Blows has never been out of print.

This is the best primer for your face, you just need a dot and spread evenly over your face. Sometimes this is all I wear.. it’s light not heavy and natural looking.

Love!
I love this product! I'm in my early 50s, and though I take good care of my skin I do have some more-than-fine lines, especially around my eyes (crow's feet). I won't say this primer erases those lines, but it manages to smooth out my skin enough that they look less noticeable (but still noticeable, don't get me wrong... only plastic surgery and Botox will fix that). I often wear this without any other makeup. It has the effect of smoothing and softening the look of your skin and minimizing pores, kind of like using a soft lighting filter and Photoshop photo editing software! It makes my face look softer, if that makes sense. Love it, love how smooth it feels on my skin. Don't love the smell (not that it's overly cloying), but it disappears quickly. One bottle lasts a loooong time, as in months and months, because a little goes a long way.

SLIGHTLY SMOOTHER BUT NOT BRIGHTER SKIN
Used it years ago as "Line Tamer"...same product, more money, but a nice primer for liquid, cream or powder foundations. It doesn't tame the lines much, which is likely why the name was changed...I have pink skin...this really doesn't help with that, but does provide a smooth base on which to begin your makeup application...I like it, even at the relatively expensive price as I use loose powder foundation and like the smooth appearance it lends to my makeup. I see zero "brightening" effect...

Awesome Product
I don't go anywhere without this primer. Sometimes where just the primer. Adds smooth texture and glow to my complexion. Makes putting on foundation a breeze. Feels like silk on the skin.
