A 2018 Pura Belpr Author Honor Book

The First Rule of Punk is a wry and heartfelt exploration of friendship, finding your place, and learning to rock out like no one's watching.

There are no shortcuts to surviving your first day at a new school--you can't fix it with duct tape like you would your Chuck Taylors. On Day One, twelve-year-old Mal (Mar a Luisa, if you want to annoy her) inadvertently upsets Posada Middle School's queen bee, violates the school's dress code with her punk rock look, and disappoints her college-professor mom in the process. Her dad, who now lives a thousand miles away, says things will get better as long as she remembers the first rule of punk: be yourself.

The real Mal loves rock music, skateboarding, zines, and Soyrizo (hold the cilantro, please). And when she assembles a group of like-minded misfits at school and starts a band, Mal finally begins to feel at home. She'll do anything to preserve this, which includes standing up to an anti-punk school administration to fight for her right to express herself

Black and white illustrations and collage art throughout make The First Rule of Punk a perfect pick for fans of books like Roller Girl and online magazines like Rookie.

This is an excellent eye lid moisturizer.
This is the mist soothing eye cream I have ever used! I have been applying it several times a day since I received it and the dryness is clearing up.

Best eye cream ever
I’m in my 40s and I’ve never been able to wear an eye cream without irritation. I also have eczema. I recently had extreme allergic reactions secondary to a house flood. this product was immediately calming producing reduction in itching redness, and scaliness within 24 hours. After a month, I have less fine lines and my eyelids are incredibly soft. I will absolutely buy this on repeat and I have few products I use often.

Absorbing moisture
Size: 10.14 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I really like this lotion. It’s fragrance free, lightweight, absorbs well, not a thick lotion that sits on top of the skin but absorbs into the skin. Incredibly moisturizing and not irritating for sensitive skin. Great product!

My holy grail
Size: 10.14 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is my favourite body lotion by far. I've been using it for over a year and there is comparison how it makes my skin feel - extremely soft and hydrated. The biggest difference i notice the next day - it feels just moisturized. I live in Colorado and in winter I used to wake up at night due to my skin being dry and itchy. Just hours after I applied lotion. Not with this one. It also absorbs very quickly. I've also been using on my face under sunscreen in the morning.

Helping my PR
Size: 10.14 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Helping my Pityriasis rosea! Redness going away and flare spots clearing up very quickly. I’ve had PR for about 6 months now and I haven’t had any other product help so much so fast. I think it’s mostly the niacin but this is a nice product.
