--from NEWS IS A VERB NEWS IS A VERB
Journalism at the End of the Twentieth Century "With the usual honorable exceptions, newspapers are getting dumber. They are increasingly filled with sensation, rumor, press-agent flackery, and bloated trivialities at the expense of significant facts. The Lewinsky affair was just a magnified version of what has been going on for some time. Newspapers emphasize drama and conflict at the expense of analysis. They cover celebrities as if reporters were a bunch of waifs with their noses pressed enviously to the windows of the rich and famous. They are parochial, square, enslaved to the conventional pieties. The worst are becoming brainless printed junk food. All across the country, in large cities and small, even the better newspapers are predictable and boring. I once heard a movie director say of a certain screenwriter: 'He aspired to mediocrity, and he succeeded.' Many newspapers are succeeding in the same way."

Waste of money for me
Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I brought this product to see if it would help my 1 year old skin because she have a lot of break out and her break out gets badly inflamed and puffy. I try this product and it actually made it worse. It say it help for itching but my child itching increase. It dry up her skin and left like a chalky feel on the skin. I really wish I could get my money back.

Miracle in a bottle!!
I NEVER give reviews but for this I had to!! I purchased this bottle and used a bit on my niece who is 3 years old because she also has sinus issues. It helped her immediately!! I threw it in my purse and never used it on myself and forgot about it. I have been having really bad Asthma flare ups for the past 2 months with tightness in my chest, severe bloating and phlegm for days! I was on albuterol, prescription cough medicine, Z pack and prednisone it helped a little but never got rid of it. My sinus and allergies were bad as well!! I was just suffering terribly!! A few days later after I used it on my neice my asthma worsened to the point I almost went in to ER because it was so bad. I remebered it so I pulled it out of my bag rubbed it on my back, chest, neck and my forehead. I cannot tell you enough the immediate relief I felt!! I was finally able to sleep well that night and today I did not have to use my asthma machine at all!! Idk what this lil bottle did but it worked like a lil miracle on me!! THANK YOU FOR THIS PRODUCT!! I have already ordered MORE!!

THIS STUFF WORKS
I’ve been bed ridden w some type of facial/sinus infection for months on and off, and when I tell you this was the ONLY thing that helped w my intense headache pain, IT REALLY WORKED ! Best thing I’ve ever used tbh, and I’m always trying natural things for pain relief. (I hate pills but sometimes nothing else works for my chronic migraines) but this stuff is amazing. and it smells so good ! I’d totally buy again, and I’ve always recommended it to two other ppl, and they loved how it worked as well !
