WHITE VINYL LP.

"White Vinyl. Mia Zapata was the greatest rock singer of her time. She may well have been the greatest blues singer in punk rock history, the woman who married the 78 and the '78. Tragedy did not make this true. Mia Zapata made this true, and the ferocious, spring-loaded shrapnel frame that was built around her by Andy Kessler (guitar: metronomic and furious), Matt Dresdner (bass: fluid, punching, beat-addicted and melodic), and Steve Moriarty (drums: martial and explosive) - who, with Mia, combined to form The Gits - made it true. The Gits were formed at Antioch College in Yellow Springs, Ohio in mid-1986, grabbing and swapping pieces of art, thrash, noise, punk rock, classic rock, and all the sorts of magical silly and bookish jingle bells that an old-school liberal arts education handed you; for the next few years they worked on turning it all into something tough, sensitive, both brutal and kind. Andy, Matt, Mia, and Steve moved to Seattle in middish 1989, landing in a house on Capitol Hill where they (and fellow travelers) wood-shedded and rehearsed for the next few years. The Gits put out three EPs in 1990 and '91 before signing with C/Z Records and releasing their first full-length album, Frenching the Bully. Seattle quickly claimed the quartet as their own and embraced the Gits blend of ferocious fangs and soft heart, the slug/slap of the guitars, and the gorgeous, soft underbelly of the poetic emotions. These qualities not only fit in with the doe-eyed/sharp-clawed grunge ethos but earned the Gits the respect of their peers, including Nirvana, who tapped them to open a major local show in 1990. Then other stuff happened, and their frantic, confessional barbed-heart snowball began rolling up hill very, very fast; the Gits "quickly" (Hah! After half a decade learning to implode and explode hearts and stomping their boots on manifold beer-softened, Marlboro-weeded wood stages!) inspired rapture, awe, and the levitation that happened when peak emotion meets peak grindage in front of amps spitting out something that sounded like the mad marriage of Bolan swagger and Dischord tension... all fronted by a genuinely incomparable woman who held her heart in her mouth and shared it, in all it's celebration and fear, without hesitation. The Gits were an angry, inflamed slinky fully in tune with and tuned by the Bessie Patti Smith of her time, truly the only singer who could summon Joplin, Poly Styrene, Sam Cooke, Iggy Pop and Ian MacKaye all in the same goddamn song. In 1993, less than four weeks after accepting an offer from Atlantic Records, Mia died. I leave it at that, because this is not about death; it's about an extraordinary life. I do not say, "You should have been there," I say, "We are lucky so many of us were, and I am so glad we have this extraordinary evidence of the power and gifts of Mia and the Gits that you now can hold in your hands." And I note that Frenching the Bully, this extraordinary testament to the soul, shock, fury and feeling of the Gits, has been long out of print on vinyl and CD, and this new edition - remastered by legendary Seattle engineer Jack Endino - joyfully rectifies that. -Tim Sommer"

Cute, Smells like Chemicals
Color: Rose Gold #01, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Color: Rose Gold #01, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Looks great but transfers easily. I liked the shade and how the glitter was visible but not distracting. I wasn’t fond of how it smelled but I covered the scent with my sunscreen and I didn’t notice afterwards. Smells like a chemical like scent but it was worth the value I paid for. Good as a highlighter, to add a touch of glow to the face. You can’t see it under foundation but it’s cute on the cheek bones to give a make up less look on a sunny day. The brush is also good quality.

Quick glow up
Color: Glistening Bronze #03, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is a great bronzing shimmer for a little added glow before walking out the door! It's very lightweight and goes on very smooth with brush. I ended up buying and using a larger kabuki brush to brush on faster but the brush it comes with works ok as well. It's the perfect amount of bronze and shimmer.. not glittery or over the top and doesn't have a smell. Doesn't transfer on clothes but I always let it dry a few minutes before putting on clothes.

Beautiful Shimmer
Color: Rose Gold #01, Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This worked well for a wedding. I thought it would be a little more bronzier but I loved the sparkle. It is my first time using a body shimmer though, so it did what I bought it for and next time just need to self tan prior!

Great value; great products
Size: 8.45 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Anua products are great. They are reasonably priced, easy to use and make your skin look and feel lovely. I really enjoy the ease of these and the small amount you use with each application. They're non irritating and leaves your skin feeling moisturized without the heavy oily feeling.

My New Holy Grail! ⟡
Size: 8.45 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Finally Azelaic Acid that don't break me out. I've tried US skincare and they are nothing but harsh to my skin. I've tried korean skin care before but I guess I wasn't buying the product that targets my skin concerns. Now that I'm giving korean skin care a second go, it did not disappoint! I can see my skin improving! ⟡
