As no sensible person would make a long road trip without first consulting a map, so the person intent upon gaining Heaven should first resort to a competent guide to reach that Goal of all goals. And no better guide to Heaven exists than An Introduction to the Devout Life by St. Francis de Sales (1567-1622), Doctor of the Church. It is at once easy to read, being laid out in short chapters, yet thorough, authoritative, reliable, kind and gentle a mirror of its author. It is a book, moreover, for all, because all are called to the devout life. True devotion to God, the author points out, adorns every vocation. The devout life, moreover, is a lovely, a pleasant, and a happy life. (p. 5) Addressed as a personal letter to Philothea, the lover of God which genuinely represents the reader the book covers: our first desire to lead a devout life to our full resolution to do so, how we should approach God in prayer and the Sacraments, the practice of 16 important virtues, remedies against ordinary temptations, and becoming confirmed in our practice of devotion. St. Francis says, Devotion is spiritual agility and vivacity, by means of which charity works in us, or we in her, with love and readiness; and as charity leads us to obey and fulfill all God s Commandments, so devotion leads us to obey them with promptitude and diligence. (p. 3) An Introduction to the Devout Life is a book to be read with pencil in hand. It is a book to be read again and again. It is a book to make your guide for the rest of your life. It goes to the heart of becoming good. Its aim is to help you be rid of sin and even the inclinations to sin. Alone, its 10 brief meditations in Part I will orient you toward God for the rest of your life. No one will come away without being profoundly impressed and without being motivated to enter upon the devout life . . . which leads ultimately to God and to Heaven.

Best Makeup Remover!
Size: 50 Count (Pack of 1)
I’m in love with these cloths! I wear waterproof SPF moisturizer, foundation and mascara daily. Before discovering these cloths, removing my makeup was such a chore! Previously I had to use mineral oil to sufficiently break down the waterproof ingredients, wipe the messy oil off with a washcloth, and follow with my regular facial cleanser. Now, I only have to use 1-2 of these cloths to fully remove the products I use and follow with a cleanser! It’s so much simpler and less messy (the mineral oil would always stick around on my bathroom sink). Although these cloths cost more than the oil, they’re a time saver and I don’t put off/sleep with my makeup on anymore! They are very gentle on my skin and don’t leave any scent behind. Highly recommend these!

Excellent for sensitive skin/ allergies, best wipes I’ve ever tried!
Size: 50 Count (Pack of 1)
These are the best makeup removing wipes I’ve ever tried and that’s saying a lot.
They are incredible for removing waterproof mascara and zinc sunscreens! For so long I avoided these products, but thanks to these makeup-removing wipes, I no longer have post-sunscreen breakouts and I can easily remove my eye makeup without pulling out any eyelashes.
They’re very good for sensitive skin, too. Other makeup removing wipes (including those specifically formulated with natural ingredients for sensitive skin) caused me to have reactions. The Clinique wipes cause me no problems, stinging, or redness.
With 50 wipes in a pack, they last a really long time. Really good product, total game-changer. My skin looks wonderful after using them.

They work really well!
Size: 50 Count (Pack of 1)
These makeup removers work great for taking off my makeup. I always wash my face after with a professional skin care line with microfiber cloths, so if you are looking for something to do all the things, maybe they aren't for you, but I need something to remove makeup, and they do the best job!

Best make up removing wipes.
Size: 50 Count (Pack of 1)
These are the only makeup removing wipes I can use. They don’t burn my eyes and they remove the makeup very well. I do recommend staring them upside down so that the pads that are at the other end stay moist and are able to remove the make up without any issue. Highly recommend. Durable and don’t tear. Great product. Great price point. I have them on a subscribe and save.
