Description:
With warmth, a popular radio and podcast host shares her love of language, weaving together linguistic history, regional phrases, the hidden poetry in etymologies, new words, and stories from her life and time on the air
Martha Barnette has spent two decades as the co-host of A Way with Words, lauded by Mary Norris in The New Yorker as “a virtual treasure house” and “‘Car Talk’ for Lexiphiles.” Over that time, she’s developed a keen sense of what fascinates people about language. They are curious about etymology and revel in slang, are surprised by regional vocabulary and celebrate linguistic diversity. Idioms both puzzle and delight word lovers, and they are eager to share family neologisms and that weird phrase Grandma always used to say.
In Friends with Words, Barnette weaves together all these strands in a clear, informative, highly entertaining exploration of language. Chock-full of anecdotes, humorous asides, new words, trivia, and other lexicological delights, Friends with Words also tells Barnette’s story—from her Appalachian roots through her study of Ancient Greek, and on to the making of a beloved and enduring show. Friends with Words is an expert, good-humored, joyful book.

Works well with others!
Size: 2.03 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Initially and by itself, I really didn’t see any changes to my face that made me confident with this product. But now that I have a skin routine, I think it works well! Now I like it and I see changes. But alone or with few products, I’m not sure how effective it is!

Decrease in black heads. Smoother skin!
Size: 1.01 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 1.01 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve never used such a great pore minimizer for this reasonable of a price. I love how smooth and clean it makes my face feel. I’ve been using it twice a day after cleansing my skin. Noticeable difference in visible pores and decrease in black heads on my nose and chin.
Highly recommend!! Come on with this price, you have nothing to lose.

Serum does not work to reduce pore size
Size: 1.01 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
While this serum does somewhat smooth skin it does absolutely nothing to reduce pore size which is primarily genetic and is resistant to most products. Not worth the money.

Helped Tighten My Skin & Minimize Pores
Color: Cyano Pink Spicule, Color: Cyano Pink Spicule
I’ve loved the Dr. Melaxin Cyano Pink Spicule Serum! The bottle is small, but it lasted me around 6 months since I only use one pump every other night. When I first started using it, I noticed a tingling sensation, but over time my skin adjusted and I barely notice it now. I’ve definitely seen my pores appear smaller and my skin feels tighter and smoother after using it.

Great for pore reduction
Color: Cyano Pink Spicule
This product works great!! it almost feels like an exfoliator. It reduced the pours on my nose, which were very big and now you can barely see them. I would recommend this product if you have large pores also make skin look firmer and smoother more for a night cream though.
