At the Dreamland, women and girls flicker from the shadows to take their proper place in the spotlight. In this lyrical collection, Sonja Livingston weaves together strands of research and imagination to conjure figures from history, literature, legend, and personal memory. The result is a series of essays that highlight lives as varied, troubled, and spirited as America itself.

Harnessing the power of language, Livingston breathes life into subjects who led extraordinary lives--as rule-breakers, victims, or those whose differences made them cultural curiosities--bringing together those who slipped through the world largely unseen with those whose images were fleeting or faulty so that they, too, remained relatively obscure. Included are Alice Mitchell, a Memphis society girl who murdered her female lover in 1892; Maria Spelterini, who crossed Niagara Falls on a tightrope in 1876; May Fielding, a "white slave girl" buried in a Victorian cemetery; Valaida Snow, a Harlem Renaissance trumpeter; a child exhibited as Darwin's Missing Link; the sculptors' model Audrey Munson; a Crowwarrior; victims of a 1970s serial killer; the Fox Sisters; and many more.

Great for building a natural brow definition & body
Color: Taupe, Size: 0.006 Ounce (Pack of 1), Color: Taupe, Size: 0.006 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I love this eyebrow pen when I’m going for a more natural look with my everyday makeup. Great price for a great product. I brush my eyebrows out, apply with the grain of my brows and finish with another good brush throw to blend the product and it looks great. I get the color Taupe as I have dirty blonde hair, and the match is great for my brows. Quick and easy pick me up to give my brows some extra structure and definition.

Great Product!
Color: Blonde, Size: 0.006 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I've used this for several years, and am always pleased with easy it is to apply. The brush helps to keep the look natural. The price is amazing, and best yet, it's EWG Verified. I use the blond color and it's a perfect match. You can't go wrong with it.

EXACTLY as advertised and MORE! HIGHLY recommended! 😊
Scent: Unscented
I've been using this product for 2 years and it works as stated. I have sensitive skin and this doesn't irritate my skin at all. Every so often, I've asked those close to me if they've noticed any odors over the past two years and they've always replied no. I've used other brands previously that were specifically labeled as "gentle" or for "sensitive skin", which were anything but. Those were also HIGHLY scented and irritated my skin, unlike this product which is very effective without all the unnecessary chemical additives. I feel the coconut oil has soothing properties and it actually helps keep my underarm skin healthy instead of making it parched, like other brands do. This product doesn't state that it's for sensitive skin but for me it's far more gentle than any other brand I've used. I also like that it doesn't contain any harsh anti-perspirants so my body can breathe and cool itself off properly through the natural act of sweating. The act of sweating releases toxins through your skin pores so it's not healthy to impede that process. This product supports that natural process by not containing any anti-perspirant chemicals. Although it's labeled as unscented, science will tell you that everything in the world has a scent (even water) and this product has a very minimal wisp of a scent that's nearly imperceptible. Manufacturer's usually refer to this as a 'masking scent' so you don't notice the smell of chemicals in a product. However, this product has minimal chemicals (that's why I chose it) so there's not much to cover up and that's a good thing! Neither I, nor anyone else that I've asked, can detect a fragrance. The ONLY time I can smell anything is when I apply it to my underarms, so the product is obviously in closer proximity to my nose. As I glide it across my skin a faint scent of a Lifesaver's pineapple flavor candy takes me immediately back to my happy childhood memories. It lasts for a few seconds and then it's gone. Could just be me but every time I use this I end up with a smile on my face. 😊 I think this happens because your underarm skin is warm so the deodorant also warms and the solidified coconut oil melts a bit as you apply it, which releases the barely-there scent. I don't smell coconut, I smell glorious pineapple! Whoever thought to make it like this is genius! For those of you who don't smell anything for those few seconds, you're missing out.

Best natural deodorant
Scent: Coconut & Vanilla
I discovered Native Deodorant through an excellent rating on the Yuka app and decided to give it a try. I’m glad I did. The formula contains naturally derived ingredients, which was an important factor in my decision. What impressed me most was how effective it is. It provides reliable odor protection throughout the day without irritation, and the application is so smooth and lightweight that it’s practically unnoticeable once applied. There’s no sticky or greasy feeling, and it feels comfortable from the moment it goes on. Overall, this has been one of the best natural deodorants I’ve used. It combines clean ingredients with excellent performance, making it an easy product to recommend.
