A lively introduction to opera, from the Renaissance to the twenty-first century There are few art forms as visceral and emotional as opera -- and few that are as daunting for newcomers. A Mad Love offers a spirited and indispensable tour of opera's eclectic past and present, beginning with Monteverdi's L'Orfeo in 1607, generally considered the first successful opera, through classics like Carmen and La Boheme, and spanning to Brokeback Mountain and The Death of Klinghoffer in recent years. Musician and critic Vivien Schweitzer acquaints readers with the genre's most important composers and some of its most influential performers, recounts its long-standing debates, and explains its essential terminology. Today, opera is everywhere, from the historic houses of major opera companies to movie theaters and public parks to offbeat performance spaces and our earbuds. A Mad Love is an essential book for anyone who wants to appreciate this living, evolving art form in all its richness.Binding Type: Hardcover

Light weight with a pleasant smell--fresh
I like this product. It smells pleasant, I don't break-out and it smooths my face all day. I feel it does brighten my older skin, somewhat. Does not feel tight or heavy.

Go-to moisturizer for years
I always come back to this moisturizer because of how lightweight and comfortable it feels on the skin while hydrating so nicely. Also leaves a super natural looking glowy finish. Works well on top of serums and underneath makeup as well. Such a hidden gem!

An all-around great, light moisturizer
The scent is citrus-y but it is very, very light; it dissipates completely within minutes. I use this only in the daytime, on top of C E Ferulic. It leaves a slight dewiness, like a subtle nacre of a pearl, which I happen to like. It is not so shiny that it accentuates fine lines. I go outside with a mirror under the sun and assess how products affect the appearance of my skin texture, and this product passes. The bottle is just over 3 ounces, which is generous and enhances value. I put Biore Watery Essence SPF 50 over the Peaches, and they work extremely well together. They kind of bond to each other and the dewiness is still mild. I sweat a lot in the summer on my face, so I wonder how Peaches will perform. But I think it can't get any better for a truly lightweight, gentle moisturizer. Very pleased with this purchase.

Wonderful formula, questionable packaging?
Trying to find a moisturizer for my combination skin and so far so good! Very light weight and not sticky. Has a very light citrus smell but not bothersome. Will probably continue to purchase because my skin seems to respond well to this company’s products.
I don't like that the product looks… empty or used upon opening my package. The tube just feels half empty… opened it and there’s a seal so I guess it wasn’t used. Just wish they filled the tube or something.
