The Hidden Brain: How Our Unconscious Minds Elect Presidents, Control Markets, Wage Wars, and Save Our LivesThe hidden brain is the voice in our ear when we make the most important decisions in our lives but we're never aware of it. The hidden brain decides whom we fall in love with and whom we hate.

The hidden brain is the voice in our ear when we make the most important decisions in our lives--but we're never aware of it. The hidden brain decides whom we fall in love with and whom we hate. It tells us to vote for the white candidate and convict the dark-skinned defendant, to hire the thin woman but pay her less than the man doing the same job. It can direct us to safety when disaster strikes and move us to extraordinary acts of altruism. But it can also be manipulated to turn an ordinary person into a suicide terrorist or a group of bystanders into a mob.

In a series of compulsively readable narratives, Shankar Vedantam journeys through the latest discoveries in neuroscience, psychology, and behavioral science to uncover the darkest corner of our minds and its decisive impact on the choices we make as individuals and as a society. Filled with fascinating characters, dramatic storytelling, and cutting-edge science, this is an engrossing exploration of the secrets our brains keep from us--and how they are revealed.

Nice
Its cool, I like the packaging as well as how much product you get for the price. It has a lightweght water-gel texture, it feels nice to apply. I dont think it helps much with redness unless you really have rosacea then maybe a little bit. But anyways, I really love this brand.

Lightweight and gentle on sensitive skin
I like this moisturizer a lot. It feels light on the skin, absorbs nicely, and doesn’t leave me feeling greasy afterward. The formula is comfortable for daily use, offers decent consistency, and I appreciate that it’s fragrance-free. The quality is better than expected, especially for trying a new-to-me brand. I have very acne-prone skin and a lot of products leave me red due to sensitivity, so it's nice finding one that doesn't agitate my skin. For the size and how easily it fits into a routine, I think the value is good. It’s one I’d keep around, especially when I want something simple and calming.

The pads have changed but still a good product
I have been using these make up remover pads for many years now and will continue to use them. I like the 3 pack so that I do not run out. I usually only use 1 pad a day so a 3pk will last me for a long while. I do not have any issues with the pads drying out in the time frame from opening them to using the last one so that is a major plus. I have no issues with these on my skin or that close to my eyes and they do a great job of removing my mascara, which is the only make up I use. I recommend them. I will say that in 2025 they have changed the material for their pads, they are now thinner and do not have the texture they used to have which for me the only difference is that they can be a bit more difficult to separate but nothing to complain about.

Amazing make-up remover pads, that work just as well as oil base ones, without the oil.
I have tried many many make-up removers and I always come back to this one. I stumbled onto this one at a pharmacy a long time ago, and I can honestly say it's the best. I have tried many others since, high end, lower end, but this is my favorite. it's obviously extremely convenient, being in a pad, rather than having to wet a pad yourself, which poses a host of problems. Sometimes you run out of pads and you have to use toilet paper, which sucks, sometimes it spills, which you them have to clean, making an annoying two step process even more annoying, by it being a three step process. These convenient pads, a one step process, are so great, because unlike most other pads I tried, these are moist. I tried so many pads that lose their moisture after you open the package, and these remain very moist. I love that its a twist off cap. Also, they are the best at removing eye makeup, better than anything I tried, except for oil pads, HOWEVER, unlike oil pads, these do not make your vision blurry and get into your eye. This brand also makes oil pads, which i dislike. Oil always manages to get into my eyes, but the thing about oil pads is that they work at removing makeup. Well Guess what?!?! These work as well, WITHOUT THE OIL!!! And they DON'T dry out your eyes and face. Love them.
