'A wonderful, vivid account of a record-breaking, 18,000-mile adventure' Cycle ActiveAn incredible record-breaking journey around the world in 169 days - solo and by bike - by the Stanford Dolman Prize-winning travel writer.

When Julian Sayarer learns the world record for a circumnavigation by bicycle has been broken, and that adventure has been bought by banks and big business, he leaves his job as a London bike courier and sets out determined to take it back.

Riding an average of 110 miles a day and as much as 240, he lives six months on the road and on a daily budget of £8.84. His route leads him through Europe and Russia, east to Shanghai, before reaching the jungles of Malaysia, the hills of New Zealand and the deserts and plains of North America. Twenty countries pass beneath his wheels, rolling through hurricanes and alongside homeless cycling tramps.

Life Cycles is not only an account of incredible physical endurance but also a roadside view of a changing world. From US trailer families to Chinese factories and Kazakh nomads, this thrilling tale of discovery and adventure is a reminder that the world is out there and waiting for us.

A Standout
This toner is a standout as it is infused with Centella Asiatica extract, which soothes irritation while gently exfoliating without causing dryness or redness. The watery texture absorbs quickly, leaving skin feeling refreshed and balanced. This toner helps improve skin texture and clarity.

Good, Cheap Makeup Wipes
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 1)
These wipes are a great value for the price and remove my everyday makeup—SPF, eyeliner, mascara, and lip products—without irritating my skin. They work efficiently and don’t require harsh rubbing. Compared to similar options, these are a better deal, and I plan to repurchase.

More Than Just a Wipe – A Small Miracle in a Plastic Pack
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 1)
Let me take you back to a Tuesday night, 11:43 PM. I was exhausted. I had just finished another long day juggling work, a messy kitchen, a toddler who refuses to sleep unless I sing “The Wheels on the Bus” four times, and a dog that mysteriously smells like pickles. I stumbled into the bathroom, glanced at my reflection in the mirror, and winced. Smudged eyeliner. Patchy foundation. That faint trace of mascara that somehow survived an entire day, a meltdown, and an unexpected rainstorm. I had zero energy left. The thought of going through my full skincare routine felt like climbing a mountain. But then I remembered the Amazon Basics Makeup Remover Wipes sitting under my sink. I pulled one out and noticed right away how soft and thick the wipe was—not papery or overly soaked like others I’ve used. It felt gentle. Almost comforting. I held it against my face for a few seconds and, without rubbing, it just… did its job. Mascara? Gone. Eyeliner? Gently wiped away. Foundation, oil, and even the invisible layer of "today was too much"? All off, effortlessly. What surprised me even more was how hydrated and fresh my face felt afterward. No tightness, no weird film, no dry patches. Just clean, calm skin. And the best part? Absolutely no scent. As someone with sensitive skin and a nose that notices everything, I deeply appreciate the fragrance-free formula. It’s rare to find a product that truly feels like it respects your skin instead of overpowering it. Since that night, these wipes have earned a permanent spot in my routine. Not just for makeup removal either. I’ve used them on groggy mornings when I don’t want to splash cold water on my face, after a sweaty walk, or to fix smudged eyeliner when I’m in a rush. They’ve even come with me on road trips and tucked inside my hospital bag when I gave birth. Each resealable pack keeps the wipes moist and fresh, and the fact that they're plant-based with FSC-certified fibers? That made me feel even better about my nightly ritual. And six packs? That’s months of clean, makeup-free evenings without ever needing to reorder. Sometimes it’s the small things that save the day. For me, it was a simple, fragrance-free wipe that helped me feel human again after the chaos. And I’ll keep buying them because they never let me down.

Great makeup wipes, noticed a tiny bit of irritation.
Scent: Hydrating, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 2)
These makeup wipes are great! They easily get off my makeup whether it be gel based liners, lipstick, mascara, eyeliner or waterproof makeup. I find one wipe is more than absorbent enough to take off all my makeup and I often use the rest to clean off my brushes; although I don’t usually wear a full face, just a mixture blush, lips, brows, highlighter, and always eyes. I find that the cloth is nonabrasive. The only issues I have with it is that the packaging is impossible to stay closed so I bet that may dry out the wipes over time. I also find that especially around my eyes I see redness and dryness after wiping and it needs a couple of wipes to get everything out of my lashes. The redness goes away after a couple minutes, but as someone with sensitive skin I get worried especially as I have had other sensitive makeup wipes not have this issue. Luckily I haven’t broke out, haven’t had lasting dryness, or issues from this product. Works well!
