A must-have for the fans of the #1 bestselling author of Me Talk Pretty One Day, David Sedaris, a collection of his favorite short fiction from Flannery O'Connor to Tobias Wolff. David Sedaris is an exceptional reader. Alone in his apartment, he reads stories aloud to the point he has them memorized. Sometimes he fantasizes that he wrote them. Sometimes, when they're his very favorite stories, he'll fantasize about reading them in front of an audience and taking credit for them. The audience in these fantasies always loves him and gives him the respect he deserves. David Sedaris didn't write the stories in Children Playing Before a Statue of Hercules . But he did read them.

It moisturizes for hours, and it's concentrated, so a small amount covers my entire face
Style: Jar, Style: Jar
I have severe atopic dermatitis, and my dermatologist recommended this cream to prevent aging, since my condition prevents me from using just any product. I tested it on a small area for a week and had no allergic reaction, so now I'm using it on my face. I feel like it moisturizes for hours, and it's concentrated, so a small amount covers my entire face.
The box arrived slightly damaged, but the contents were not; I suppose the fault lies with the shipping company.

Love the moisturizer, hate the smell
Style: Jar
I received a sample of this in an ipsy box and loved it. I have combination/dry skin, and this is so moisturizing. It also works well under makeup. The smell is terrible though--reminds me of am old perfume, and it's hard for me to ignore. I would absolutely rate this 5 stars if they got rid of the fragrance.
