For readers of Atul Gawande and Paul Kalanithi, a palliative care doctor's breathtaking stories from 30 years spent caring for the dying. Modern medical technology is allowing us to live longer and fuller lives than ever before. And for the most part, that is good news. But with changes in the way we understand medicine come changes in the way we understand death. Once a familiar, peaceful, and gentle -- if sorrowful -- transition, death has come to be something from which we shield our eyes, as we prefer to fight desperately against it rather than accept its inevitability. Dr. Kathryn Mannix has studied and practiced palliative care for thirty years. In With the End in Mind, she shares beautifully crafted stories from a lifetime of caring for the dying, and makes a compelling case for the therapeutic power of approaching death not with trepidation, but with openness, clarity, and understanding. Weaving the details of her own experiences as a caregiver through stories of her patients, their families, and their distinctive lives, Dr. Mannix reacquaints us with the universal, but deeply personal, process of dying. With insightful meditations on life, death, and the space between them, With the End in Mind describes the possibility of meeting death gently, with forethought and preparation, and shows the unexpected beauty, dignity, and profound humanity of life coming to an end.Binding Type: Paperback

lightweight, did not irritate my skin
I have been using this ampoule for about 3 weeks now and I like how it makes my skin feel. It doesn't feel harsh, my skin didn't seem to mind it because it didn't look or feel irritated after the 3 weeks of use. I am not solely using this product as my night time moisturizer but it is an addition to my other moisturizer. It is easy to apply, doesn't feel heavy, sticky, or tacky. I can't say how this works for existing blemishes and imperfections because I am mainly using this as a prevention. I recently had some of my sun spots laser-ed so I am trying to keep any additional sun spots from appearing again, which is why it is so important for me to keep up with the prevention routine. This product is excellent for that. I did take a look at the ingredients list and while I'm fine with most of it, I did notice there is a silicone in this. I try to avoid silicones but I'm not going to say it is a dealbreaker. All in all I like this product and will keep using this until I'm done with the entire bottle.
I didn't see the ingredients list posted on this page yet so here it is, in case you need to see what's in this serum before making the decision to purchase.

Water, Butylene Glycol, Phenyl Trimethicone, Niacinamide, Tranexamic Acid, 1,2-Hexanediol, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Polyglyceryl-6 Dicaprate, Arginine, Carbomer, Ethylhexylglycerin, Adenosine, Astaxanthin(100000ppb), Melia Azadirachta Flower Extract, Melia Azadirachta Leaf Extract, Betaine, Ocimum Sanctum Leaf Extract, Corallina Officinalis Extract, Coccinia Indica Fruit Extract, Curcuma Longa (Turmeric)Root Extract, Ascorbic Acid, Tocopherol, Thioctic Acid, Thermus Thermophillus Ferment, Glycerin, Potassium Sorbate

So far, loving this! I have super sensitive skin and it's causing no issues!
This serum is really nice and easy to apply! It’s on the thin side, so I like to tilt my head upwards and gently release a drop or 2 at a time onto my face. Rub it in from there.
If you drop this into your hand to apply first, you’ll be wasting a lot of product, so don’t go that route.
I do have some sun spots I’m looking to tackle, so hopefully this will help with those!
I also live in a city with high levels of pollution, so I can use all the antioxidants I can get!
I'm excited to see if this helps with some sun damage and spots that I've accumulated over the years.

Absorbs quickly
I like this ampoule. It has a nice gel-like viscosity and absorbs quickly into my skin and has not caused any irritation. I like that it has no smell. Since I have been using it, I have noticed a general lightening of the dark spots on my cheeks. I have noticed that my skin tone looks brighter since I have started using this. I will continue to use this ampoule in hopes of seeing even more improvement. Overall, I am very happy with this ampoule and think it does a good job of evening out my skin tone and lightening dark spots I have on my face making my skin look brighter, in general.

Does nothing for my skin
I have been using this for a little over a month and this has done nothing for my skin. For the price, I'm disappointed, I expected to see at least some little results after 1 month but nothing for me. I will not purchase again.

Its fine... but didnt really work for me.
No negative side effects, but I just didn't find it to lighten the areas I was hoping for.
** Hi a little about me and my reviews.
I regularly review skin care products and have a base line for my reviewing process.
Firstly I have very dry, sensitive and aging skin.
I prefer oil based products, and I prefer something with a natural scent like lavender, rose, rosemary.
I try to keep my reviews concise but I wanted to share my star ratings as I see them.
5 Stars - Would use every day. Great product, does great things!
4 Stars- Great Product but not for everyday use, 2-3 days per week or spa day special.
3 Stars- Not great, not awful, just ok.
2 Stars- Not good, but not injurious
1 Star- Terrible, burns, or unsafe product
