National bestselling author Dave Tarnowski, the visionary behind the 2.4-million+ follower @DisappointingAffirmations Instagram account, is back with a fresh and funny brace of realistic affirmations that recognize that failure is always an option across the many splendors of our lives.

Life: It’s often disappointing!

Whether it’s everyday experiences with family, friends, work, love, or the general hell of other people, there’s ample opportunity for disillusionment. Hilarious disillusionment. Disappointment guru Dave Tarnowski's second collection features new and exclusive affirmations and dozens of transformed and unpublished fan favorites from his wildly popular Instagram account.

This abundance of wisdom is helpfully organized into eight everyday subjects on which we can all use a little subversive sympathetic enlightenment (including Daily Motivation, Work, Success, and Other People). Dave excavates each subject further in a funny, clear-eyed short essay. All photos are his own. All feelings widely shared.

Like a non-disappointing gift with purchase, the book's jacket folds out into a new motivational poster, suitable for display anywhere disappointment may strike.

IT REALLY IS OKAY TO NOT BE OKAY: People say, “It’s okay to not be okay,” but then it feels like they need you to be okay. This subversively funny book is the perfect way to remind ourselves, or anyone who needs it, that it's better to deal with our feelings honestly than fall into the “positive vibes only” self-help trap.

MORE FEELINGS THAN EVER BEFORE: Tarnowski's pithy photo-illuminated consolations and manifestos are as sharp and relatable as ever. Now paired with observational essays that plumb depths and cast light, it's a whole new ride.

TOXIC POSITIVITY CAN GO TO HELL: Enough, already.

WAIT, THERE’S MORE! See also the original, national bestselling Disappointing Affirmations book and accompanying stationery and gift items, including Disappointing Affirmations Wall Calendar, Disappointing Affirmations Deck, Disappointing AffirmationsPencils, Disappointing Affirmations: 30 Postcards, Disappointing AffirmationsSticker Book, and Disappointing Affirmations: The Game. You won’t be disappointed.

Worth the hype
Size: 1.35 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Cicaplast Baume B5 Balm
I’ve seen La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Balm B5 recommended countless times online, so I finally decided to try it for irritated skin and a damaged skin barrier. It absolutely lives up to the hype for me. The texture is very rich and moisturizing, but it feels extremely soothing on dry, overtreated, or sensitive areas. I’ve used it on my face, hands, and other irritated patches of skin, and it really helps calm everything down. The quality feels excellent, which is what I expect from La Roche-Posay. A little goes a long way, so I think it’s a very good value for the price. I also like that it’s versatile enough for the whole family. I’ve even shared it with my daughter, and we both love having it around for dry or irritated skin. Definitely one of those products I can see myself repurchasing regularly.

Amazing Skin Recovery Balm – Hydrating, Soothing, and Instant Tone-Up Effect!
Size: 1.35 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Cicaplast Baume B5 Balm
I bought this after an AI recommendation while looking for something to help my skin recover after professional dermatology treatments, and I’m so glad I did. This balm is incredibly moisturizing and soothing without feeling heavy or greasy. My skin barrier felt calmer almost immediately, and it really helped speed up the recovery process. One thing I love is the subtle tone-up effect — it makes my skin look brighter and more even right after application, almost like a natural glow without makeup. It’s perfect for post-treatment care, irritation, dryness, and overall skin repair. A little goes a long way, and it has become a staple in my skincare routine. Highly recommend this to anyone needing skin recovery support and a healthy-looking glow. I will definitely repurchase!

A Skin Barrier Savior for Irritated, Pore-Prone Skin
Size: 1.35 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Cicaplast Baume B5 Balm
This cream has honestly become one of my skincare essentials. My skin gets easily irritated and reactive, and this balm calms everything down almost overnight. It really helps reduce redness, dryness, and that tight uncomfortable feeling after using active products. I also noticed my skin looks smoother and healthier overall, and even my pores appear less noticeable because my skin barrier is finally balanced and hydrated. The texture is a little thicker than a regular moisturizer, so I prefer using a thinner layer during the day, especially under makeup. But at night, it works beautifully as a repairing treatment. Gentle, effective, and definitely worth the hype!

Good stuff
Size: 1.35 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Cicaplast Baume B5 Balm
This is a great rescue cream. No fragrance. Non-greasy. Lightweight. Application is easy. Helps with rashes, dryness, and redness, and feels great. The product itself gets 10 stars. The Amazon price, on the other hand, is not the best. I found it at a local store $2 cheaper. And still, for the size the price is high.

Size: 1.35 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Cicaplast Baume B5 Balm
This balm has been amazing for dry and irritated skin. I started using it on rough patches around my nose and cheeks, and it helped calm everything down quickly. The texture is thick but it absorbs better than I expected. A little goes a long way, so the tube lasts quite a while. I also like that it does not have a strong fragrance that irritates sensitive skin. It works well under makeup and overnight as a treatment. I will definitely keep repurchasing this because it has become a staple in my skincare routine.
