"Alternately lyrical and laugh-out-loud funny."--New York Times "Deliciously readable . . . Donald Hall, if abandoned by the muse of poetry, has wrought his prose to a keen autumnal edge." -- Wall Street Journal His entire life, Donald Hall dedicated himself to the written word, putting together a storied career as a poet, essayist, and memoirist. Here, in the "unknown, unanticipated galaxy" of very old age, his essays startle, move, and delight. In Essays After Eighty, Hall ruminates on his past: "thirty was terrifying, forty I never noticed because I was drunk, fifty was best with a total change of life, sixty extended the bliss of fifty . . ." He also addresses his present: "When I turned eighty and rubbed testosterone on my chest, my beard roared like a lion and gained four inches." Most memorably, Hall writes about his enduring love affair with his ancestral Eagle Pond Farm and with the writing life that sustains him every day: "Yesterday my first nap was at 9:30 a.m., but when I awoke I wrote again.""Alluring, inspirational hominess . . . Essays After Eighty is a treasure . . . balancing frankness about losses with humor and gratitude." -- Washington Post "A fine book of remembering all sorts of things past, Essays After Eighty is to be treasured." -- Boston Globe

Toxic ingredients
Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
There are endocrine disruptors in here that are harmful to your health. I nearly got to the point of being disabled from endocrine issues. Has ingredients that ruin fertility, raise risk of cancer, and ruin your endocrine system. I hope these brands can take these ingredients out and begin to care about consumers health.

Returning customer! :-)
Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this product. The size is perfect, it smells amazing, and my skin has no reaction to it whatsoever (aside from what it’s supposed to do). So just a little background, my mother is Caucasian- my father is African American. I can either get a sun burn or get super tan- all depends on what products I use while under the sun.
In the past, low quality products have given me a sunburn over a period of long sun exposure. Contrary to that, high quality products require me to apply less and will prevent me from sunburns. I do have to reapply, depending how much sun exposure I am getting.
I originally purchased this product for a week long trip to Mexico with my boyfriend. I only bought 2 bottles- and we spent A LOT of time on the beach/ getting sun. We both used the sunscreen and STILL HAD LEFTOVERS after our trip (half a bottle still full). In addition, neither of us got sunburns- he got a nice sun kissed glow and I got a tan!
It is TSA carry-on approved, very lightweight, and easy to use. I would recommend this product to anyone who asks! 10/10 will repurchase again :-)

“Holy Sun Protection, Batman! This Stuff Works!” 🦇🦸♂️
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The COOLA Organic Sunscreen SPF 50 Sunblock is the real deal. It goes on smooth, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave behind that greasy, chalky layer most sunscreens do. I put it to the test during a full day outdoors, and it held strong—no burns, no irritation, just solid protection.
What makes it even better is the formula: not overloaded with harsh chemicals, but still highly effective. It feels more like skincare than sunscreen, which makes reapplying far less of a chore.
If Batman and Robin swapped their capes for beach towels, this would be the sunblock in their utility belts—powerful protection, clean ingredients, and a formula that actually works when the heat is on. 🦇☀️
Would you like me to also create short funny one-liner summaries for each review (like quick taglines), so you have both the full review and a quick punchy line to use?
