"Whether you view your one-woman m nage as Doom or Adventure, you need a plan, if you are going to make the best of it."

Thus begins Marjorie Hillis' archly funny, gently prescriptive manifesto for single women. Though it was 1936 when the Vogue editor first shared her wisdom with her fellow singletons, the tome has been passed lovingly through the generations, and is even more apt today than when it was first published. Hillis, a true bon vivant, was sick and tired of hearing single women carping about their living arrangements and lonely lives; this book is her invaluable wake-up call for single women to take control and enjoy their circumstances.

Hillis takes readers through the fundamentals of living alone, including the importance of creating a hospitable environment at home, cultivating hobbies that keep her there ("for no woman can accept an invitation every night without coming to grief"), the question of whether single ladies may entertain men at home (the answer may surprise you ), and many more.

With engaging chapter titles like "A Lady and Her Liquor" and "The Pleasures of a Single Bed," along with a new preface by author Laurie Graff (You Have to Kiss A Lot of Frogs), Live Alone and Like It is sure to appeal to live-aloners and many other readers alike.

Great Sunscreen — Just a Bit Pricey
COOLA Organic Sunscreen and Lip Balm SPF 30 are both really nice products. I love that they’re organic and feel lightweight on the skin — they don’t leave that heavy, greasy filmy feel that some sunscreens do. The SPF protection feels reliable, and the lip balm keeps my lips comfortable and protected without a strong chemical smell. The packaging is cute and easy to use, and I appreciate the cleaner ingredient list. My only hesitation in giving five stars is the price point — it’s definitely on the higher end compared with other sunscreens and lip balms I’ve used. That said, the performance and feel make it worth it if you prioritize organic ingredients and a pleasant application. Overall, would recommend if you’re willing to spend a little more for quality and healthier formulas!

Perfect for travel.
I LOVE Coola products so for me this was a perfect buy! The product was excellent, sizes were perfect for travel. There was item in the package I had never tried, the Radical Recovery. This product was amazing. I got burnt the first night at the beach and I used it, it immediately took away the burn. The next morning I was good to go. I used it every day we were on vacation. I even went and bought the large bottle. So if you are looking to try Coola products before you buy the regular sizes this is the perfect product for you. I was not paid or approached to leave this review. This is my honest opinion of the product. I absolutely love all of it.

All in one
Love this brand of sunscreen. I first purchased it for use in Hawaii which requires mineral sunscreen. This kit makes it easy to grab and go for carry-on purposes. Coola brand has no scent, which is one of the top things I look for in any makeup or body cream.
