NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE TIMES (UK) AND THE WASHINGTON POST

It is 1988. On a dead-end street in a run-down suburb there is a music shop that stands small and brightly lit, jam-packed with records of every kind. Like a beacon, the shop attracts the lonely, the sleepless, and the adrift; Frank, the shop's owner, has a way of connecting his customers with just the piece of music they need. Then, one day, into his shop comes a beautiful young woman, Ilse Brauchmann, who asks Frank to teach her about music. Terrified of real closeness, Frank feels compelled to turn and run, yet he is drawn to this strangely still, mysterious woman with eyes as black as vinyl. But Ilse is not what she seems, and Frank has old wounds that threaten to reopen, as well as a past it seems he will never leave behind. Can a man who is so in tune with other people's needs be so incapable of connecting with the one person who might save him? The journey that these two quirky, wonderful characters make in order to overcome their emotional baggage speaks to the healing power of music--and love--in this poignant, ultimately joyful work of fiction.

Love this so much
Big, chonky lip balm! I am one of those people who cannot have dry lips, so I am always applying lip balms. I put this one on before bed and again in the morning and have noticed my lips stay moisturized and soft longer and I do not need to apply my usual lip balm nearly as much throughout the day. Disclaimer: this lip balm is literally tallow/fat/oil, so I do not carry it in my pocket or purse as I am pretty sure it may melt.

This stuff works!!
I suffer from skin rashes underneath my breast. I’ve been prescribed a couple of different ointment/creams to use, one even had a steroid in it. They would clear the rash up after about a week. It was very gradual. I remembered buying this very cheap pain rub from the dollar store and it worked better than anything I’d paid $$ for. While searching on line for this pain rub I saw this Natrulo Skin Repair ointment. After reading the ingredients and reviews I decided to try it. I applied it as soon as it arrived. It went on smoothly and it did sting a little on some of the places where I had scratched. I applied it again that night after my shower and right before bed because it was really red underneath there. That was on a Monday, by Wednesday the redness was gone and so were the scratches! This stuff really works! Fast!!

It works.
I was skeptical of this product because of how I intended to use it. Sometimes, especially in summer, moisture accumulates in the crease of my legs (where they attach to my body). And, as a result, I get severely chafed to the point of breaking skin and bleeding (or at least seeping serum). I figured this could just wash away in the moisture. But, it didn't. I did very meticulous cleaning and drying and then applied this ointment. At least twice daily. And in just a few days my skin was healing. I'd say less than a week and I was back to normal. Highly recommended.

Great skin relief, but not Vegan.
Great product but it's not Vegan. As a nutritioist and vegetarian, I'm aware that true Vegans do not eat/use anything containing animals or animal by-producs. This contains beeswax which makes it vegetarian but not Vegan. That is the only reason why I'm giving it 4 stars rather than 5. I bought this to use on 2 small patches of dry/scaly skin on my face. Everything else always says "itch relief" and contains strong chemicals which I prefer to not use, especially on my face. After just a couple weeks, the scaly skin is gone and the red is getting lighter every day. It smells very nice as well.
