Tamsen Donner. For most the name conjures the ill-fated Donner party trapped in the snows of the Sierra Nevada Mountains in 1846-47. Others might know Tamsen as the stoic pioneer woman who saw her children to safety but stayed with her dying husband at the cost of her own life. For Gabrielle Burton, Tamsen's story, fascinating in its own right, had long seemed something more: the story of a woman's life writ large, one whose impossible balancing of self, motherhood, and marriage spoke to Burton's own experience.This book tells of Burton's search to solve the mystery of Tamsen Donner for herself. A graceful mingling of history and memoir, Searching for Tamsen Donner follows Burton and her husband, with their five daughters, on her journey along Tamsen's path. From Tamsen's birthplace in Massachusetts to North Carolina, where she lost her first family in the space of three months; to Illinois, where she married George Donner; and finally to the fateful Oregon Trail, Burton recovers one woman's compelling history through a modern-day family's adventures into realms of ultimately timeless experiences. Here Burton has also, for the first time, collected and published together all seventeen of Tamsen's known letters.

DO NOT PURCHASE
This face wash has not only irritated my face, but also my hands. My skin has had horrible. Allergic reactions to everything by this company when I’ve never been allergic to anything in my entire life. I’ve gone out to four dermatologist and none of them can figure out what’s going on, but all of them have identified that these products are the issue however they do not list all of the chemicals in English so it’s not something that can be identified easily.

Too harsh on my sensitive skin for daily use
This cleanser contains a variety of emollient and moisturizing oils, but it also contains potassium hydroxide, which indicates saponification, a process that turns oil into soap. While it has the appearance of being an oily liquid, it foams up nicely on wet skin to create a luxurious lather.
It has a fresh, clean soapy scent. I can't quite place it, but it reminds me of something from a long time ago. It is a little powdery and perhaps more of a mature scent, but I really like how clean it smells.
Unfortunately, I find it to be quite harsh on my skin, which is likely a result of the saponification of the oils. One day of use here and there will be fine for me, but daily use makes my skin quite dry. In fact, it makes my skin squeaky clean, which is not necessarily a good thing. It is a shame because the scent is so nice, and I love the oil-to-foamy-lather formulation.
Another issue is that the dropper on the bottle arrived clogged. It is really puzzling because the cleanser seems to be completely liquid. I ran the dropper under very warm water for quite some time in an attempt to clear the clog, but I was unsuccessful. So, in using the product, I've just been pouring it into my hand. This could also be contributing to my issues with dryness, as no matter how hard I try to dispense a small amount, pouring the cleanser out of the bottle inevitably results in my using more than would have been dispensed from a dropper.

Collagen Eye Patches
These are the best under eye patches that I bought. I have tried others, but none provided the results that these did. I had visible results that lasted 12 hours. Puffiness reduced, smooth skin, rejuvenated look. I will be buying more when my supply is up.

Instant feeling of coolness but hoping I got what I paid for.
The box received isn’t the same as advertised but close. She picture. This is only second time trying a set from this box. They are soft and cooling. No unpleasant smell. It makes it fell like a spa day. And Hope to see results with use. At this point not breakout or reactions. That’s a good thing! Just not seeing results yet. Give it time, I know.
