The Bear's Embrace: A Story of SurvivalOn a chilly autumn morning in 1983, during a relaxing escape to the Canadian Rockies, Patricia Van Tighem and her husband were attacked by a grizzly bear. Although they survived, their ordeal was just beginning. For years Van Tighem endured numerous surgeries as doctors attempted to reconstruct her face and ease her pain. The nightmares that haunted her carried their own psychological burden. In many ways she had to redefine her sense of who she was.
On a chilly autumn morning in 1983, during a relaxing escape to the Canadian Rockies, Patricia Van Tighem and her husband were attacked by a grizzly bear. Although they survived, their ordeal was just beginning. For years Van Tighem endured numerous surgeries as doctors attempted to reconstruct her face and ease her pain. The nightmares that haunted her carried their own psychological burden. In many ways she had to redefine her sense of who she was. Yet she was resolved to recover-as a survivor, a wife and a mother. Van Tighem's tale is astonishing and beautifully written. Showing a resilience that has overcome even the most traumatic of events, The Bear's Embrace is a truly inspiring testament to the power of the human spirit.Binding Type: Paperback

Will be my go-to
As good as my almay brand, but at a better cost point. Also removes waterproof mascara without eye irritation.

Gentle, refreshing, and doesn’t dry my skin out!
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
It’s great for everyday use, especially if you have sensitive or dry skin. The texture is smooth, it rinses off easily, and the scent is light and pleasant. I’ve noticed my skin looks clearer and more even since I started using it.
Definitely a great option if you want something simple, gentle, and effective for daily cleansing!

Gentle Fragrance free Non-greasy Gel Cleanser
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I bought this for my two teenage sons. I tend to lean towards more natural products. It's challenging to find affordable effective products that not loaded with all the additives and chemicals. While all the ingredients may not be completely "all natural" it is gentle and effective.
My oldest has been using this for about 6 months and has had great results so far. He has already went through an entire bottle and asked for more. It does help keep his face well balanced and his break outs under control.
It is a fragrance-free non greasy gel cleanser with a thin consistency. I got a good discount by purchasing two which is a great value for this product since it is already a decent price for what you get. My family also uses the Thayers witch hazel, milky cleanser, and milky toner and they are all great. We have some sensitive skin types in our family and Thayers does well with sensitive skin types including this Ph balancing cleanser.

Soo good!
Size: 8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Love this product! Im so greatful to have found this through Nina Pool (thank u Nina!) After trying multiple different face washes that left my sensitive skin feeling tight and irritated, im so glad to have tried this one. It's a gel like consistancy thats gentle, hydrating and leaves my face feeling softer and cleaner than any other product ive tried. Ive ordered this product many times. I hope they never discontinue this.
