From "a master of precision" (The Observer, London) comes an explosive, provocative novel about John F. Kennedy's years in the White house: his political daring, his brave dedication to human rights, his devotion to his family--and his uncontrollable and unrelenting appetite for sexual adventure. - Taut, magnificent prose: Mercurio's premise--to chronicle Kennedy's exploits, political and sexual, through the President's own anguished but self-centered perspective--is bold to the point of hubris, but he succeeds in spades. The writing is elegant, spare, and wry; the narrative is exquisitely paced. The book's ending is emotionally shattering-- empathetic, redemptive, and shocking. - Startlingly revisionist portrait of JFK: We see Kennedy at his best, as a visionary statesman, a former soldier turned moral pacifist, a loving parent and devoted husband. And we see him at his worst, as a compulsive philanderer whose countless conquests--of movie stars, socialites, secretaries, and interns--ruined hundreds of lives. - Amazing cast of characters: They are all here: Marilyn Monroe, Frank Sinatra, Peter Lawford, Angie Dickinson, Judith Campbell, LBJ, Fiddle and Faddle, Eisenhower, and perhaps most memorably, Jacqueline Kennedy.Binding Type: Paperback

Good but left white cast on my skin
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Overall, I bought this because of the zinc oxide; it is very easy to use, no strong odor, non-sticky. However, it still left white cast on my face. (The intensity of the white cast is still lower compared to other more expensive brand.)

Producto bueno
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Honestly, I really liked it. It has a good texture, doesn’t feel heavy, and leaves a nice finish. I’ve been using it every day, and so far it has worked well for me

Non greasy, not much white cast compared to other mineral sunscreens
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The only one my 13 yr old will tolerate. Its the least greasy feeling of any mineral sunscreen we've tried. At 19% zinc oxide, I'm happy. Its also the least "white" cast of any we've tried. My Fitzpatrick III daughter is happy about that

Liked the old formula more :/ very drying
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
We have used this for the longest time because me and my middle child have an allergy to chemical sunscreens. I remember last summer the formula was slightly more greasy but I preferred that. While I do like how protected my skin is (we haven’t burned at all even with the new formula, even after swimming for hours and not reapplying) it is extremely drying to where my skin looks like it’s cracking and feels very hard to wash off. Like I can still feel it on my skin after showering. May try a different one :/ super bummed! I feel like it is also hard to rub on skin because it absorbs so fast.
