What goes around comes around. Today "recycling" and "sustainability" are words we hear every day as we are rightly urged to care for our fragile planet. For me, growing up in a remote forester's house, on the edge of the Brecon Beacons in the immediate post war years, re-cycling was something we did automatically. Remoteness and the austerity of the times also meant that sustainability came naturally as we had to have a certain amount of self-sufficiency with goats, chickens and bees housed at the end of the garden. It was a time of rationing and honey was, as it had been before the transportation of sugar from New World plantations, the main source of sweetness in our food and cooking.

Memories of those now distant days have been in part responsible for this book. My earlier publication - Traditional Welsh Honey Recipes - made me realise how much can be done with honey and so I have welcomed the opportunity, offered by the International Bee Research Association (IBRA), to expand and vary those recipes. All the contents have been tried and tested, on and by my own family and friends, who sometimes managed to eat the food before it could be photographed for the book which is, I suppose in its own way, a kind of recommendation! I hope that you, too, will enjoy, not only the end product, but also the making of these recipes which may well stimulate memories as well as appetites.

Preparing the food has been a joy, preparing the book has been hard work. Tony Gruba and Stuart Williams willingly took on the task of making many of the recipes thus helping me ensure that the instructions, as well as the ingredients, were understandable to a new reader. It was good to know that they had satisfaction from the cooking process as well as the food. I thank them for their help.

The book would not have been completed without the tireless support, the constructive criticism and suggestions of my daughter, Sarah Jones. She has been a formidable taskmaster and editor but I thank her for the precision I believe she has brought to my simple home cooking approach. My thanks also to Joanne Hawker for her creative design and layout, which I hope you will find helps when you use the book.

Good for combo skin. Scented.
This moisturizer has a lightweight texture. It reminds me of a gel-cream. It does have a floral/powdery/fresh scent. It doesn’t bother me that much but a lot of people don’t like scented face products. I took off one star for the fact that it’s scented because I feel it’s unnecessary. Especially since this moisturizer is labeled for sensitive skin. I also feel like it is pricey for the small 1.3 floz bottle. It seems a bit basic for $40 doesn’t it? I have combo/acne prone skin and I am currently on prescription tretinoin/hydroquinone cream from my dermatologist. I needed a face moisturizer that is light and wouldn’t clog my pores but also super hydrating. My skin is very sensitive right now and I had no issues with this moisturizer. I felt it provided the perfect amount of hydration without being greasy and heavy feeling on my face. I don’t like heavy moisturizers. The hydrance rich version is way too heavy for me. The finish of this light moisturizer is soft and doesn’t leave a sticky feeling, like some face moisturizers do. I can wear this year round. It is hard to find the perfect balance of hydration without being greasy. Overall I will keep purchasing it because I am extremely picky about the texture of my face moisturizers and this one is perfect for me. It also wears well under sunscreen and makeup. I do think it’s a little overpriced and the fragrance is unnecessary. Overall it works for me but it’s very important to know about the floral fragrance. The fragrance does go away after a little while but it is present upon application and also minutes after. If you don’t mind the fragrance and have combo, acne prone skin like I do, you will probably like the texture. If you don’t want to pay the money for this avene, try vanicream face moisturizer. The cerave pm face moisturizer is also kinda similar. The vanicream face moisturizer being the most similar to avene light, in my opinion. Vanicream is also unscented and a fraction of the price. Make sure it is the one specifically for the face, without sunscreen. I was not sent this product for free and this is not a paid review. All honest opinions here.

Strong irritating scent
Strong perfume scent that triggered my allergies. Why would a product designed for sensitive skin have fragrance added? My dermatologist had provided me some samples from Avene that were unscented and worked great, but this product is unusable for me if it's perfumed.

Good product, good value
This is a nice set of Vaseline products. I had never heard of the balm stick and I am so glad that I tried it. It works great on my itchy eyelids. I have been using the lotion for many years, in one formulation or another, but the yellow variety since the 70's. It works so nice after getting some sun and it smells good. Then there is the old fashioned Vaseline in a jar. Always need that on hand. The combination set was a good value.
