A powerful coming-of-age story about grief, guilt, and the risks a Filipino-American teenager takes to uncover the truth about his cousin's murder.

Jay Reguero plans to spend the last semester of his senior year playing video games before heading to the University of Michigan in the fall. But when he discovers that his Filipino cousin Jun was murdered as part of President Duterte's war on drugs, and no one in the family wants to talk about what happened, Jay travels to the Philippines to find out the real story.

Hoping to uncover more about Jun and the events that led to his death, Jay is forced to reckon with the many sides of his cousin before he can face the whole horrible truth -- and the part he played in it.

As gripping as it is lyrical, Patron Saints of Nothing is a page-turning portrayal of the struggle to reconcile faith, family, and immigrant identity.

Great summer foundation
This is similar to the Laroche Posay BB blur. It goes on very smoothly and easily blends. Great for a light product in the summer as it helps control the oil. It reminds me of an Estee Lauder mousse foundation. Agree with others that the shades are not true to the photos. You have to play around to get the right one. In terms of wear and coverage, if you really need to look perfect, better off with an oil control liquid like Hourglass over the BB blur.

Fantastic foundation
This is by far my absolute favorite foundation. It's light, airy, and feels like I'm wearing no makeup at all. For someone who, like me, isn't used to wearing a lot of makeup and is just looking for a little bit of coverage and mattifying, this is absolutely the perfect product. I put a little but on more t-zone in the morning after my shower, and I'm golden for the rest of the day. Also I love that it comes off easily when I wash my face in the evening, unlike a lot of the ticker foundations. I'll be sure to be reordering it when I run out.

I am a fan of La Roche Posay but...
I have been buying La Roche Posay skin products for a long time.. but this foundation just doesn't work! I have to say it blends very well.. but it doesn't sit on the skin!!! If you accidentally touches your face, the foundation would just fall off like that. I can't even say it doesn't last long because it never lasted in the first place. This is not cheap too, so I was very disappointed.

Makes me look older - Not for me!
This review is for the 05 Dark Beige color of the La Roche-Posay Toleriane Teint Mattifying Mousse Matte Foundation for Oily Skin and Sensitive Skin. Disclaimer: This review was written by my wife! We ordered "Honey Beige" and received "05 hâlé - Dark beige", which is not one of the colors offered on the product page. Hâlé means sunburned or tanned, and it is for darker skin, not for the darkest skin tones. It’s too dark for me, as I usually use the second lightest color for foundations. PROS The foundation is not fragrant like some of their products Does not irritate my skin at all Does not give a cakey look Covers pores and uneven skin colors well Looks beautiful right after the application CONS In less than a couple of hours, my skin, especially forehead area, looks almost exactly like the texture of "saffiano printed calf skin", with numerous fine straight-line wrinkles going both vertically and horizontally. I could not believe that, so I tried the foundation with and without moisturizers and foundation bases, but my forehead still ended up in looking like the material with which my purse is made. I don't even have visible wrinkles on my forehead without the foundation, so it ended up making my skin look far worse, rather than better. Not recommended.
