Antarctica: What Everyone Needs to KnowIn this addition to the What Everyone Needs to Know(R) series, David Day examines the most forbidding and formidably inaccessible continent on Earth. For over a century following its discovery by European explorers in 1820, Antarctica played host to competing claims by rival nations vying for access to the frozen land's vast marine resources namely the skins and oils of seals and whales.

In this addition to the What Everyone Needs to Know(R) series, David Day examines the most forbidding and formidably inaccessible continent on Earth. For over a century following its discovery by European explorers in 1820, Antarctica played host to competing claims by rival nations vying for access to the frozen land's vast marine resources -- namely the skins and oils of seals and whales. Though the Antarctic Treaty of 1959 was meant to end this contention, countries have found other means of extending control over the land, with scientific bases establishing at least symbolic claims. Exploration and drilling by the United States, Great Britain, Russia, Japan, and others has led to discoveries about the world's climate in centuries past -- and in the process intimations of its alarming future. Delving into all the relevant issues -- the history of the continent, its wildlife, underwater mountain ranges, arguments over governance, and the continent's effect on global climate change -- Day's work sheds new light on a territory that, despite being the coldest, driest, and windiest continent in the world, will continue to be the object of intense speculation and competition. With new evidence that Antarctica's ice is melting three times faster than it was a decade ago, the need to understand the world's southernmost region has never been more pressing.Binding Type: Paperback

Great product
Color: Pink (PDRN)
These eye patches are incredibly hydrating and leave my under eye area looking plumper and refreshed after using. Adhere well without slipping and deliver an immediate cooling, refreshed effect. The formula feels gentle yet effective, and the patches are generously sized and comfortable. I purchased these during a promotional deal and felt they were an excellent value for the quality. A high-quality product that fits seamlessly into a skincare routine.

52 with Mature Skin — Hydrating, Smoothing Eye Patches That Actually Make a Visible Difference
Color: Pink (PDRN), Color: Pink (PDRN)
I’m 52, post-menopausal, with drier, more delicate skin around the eyes, and I’ve been using Abib products for years. It’s one of those brands I consistently come back to because the formulas are well-balanced and actually perform without irritating my skin. These patches fit right in with that experience.
The texture is one of the first things that stands out. They have a cushiony, jelly-like feel that holds its shape well and adheres comfortably to the skin. Once applied, they stay in place without sliding around, and there’s no stickiness or residue left behind when you remove them — which is not always the case with eye patches.
In terms of effectiveness, these go beyond just a temporary cooling effect. With consistent use, I notice my under-eye area looks smoother, more hydrated, and less tired overall. Fine lines look softened, and the skin has a more refined, even appearance. Puffiness is reduced, and the area just looks more awake and supported.
Hydration and softness are where these really shine. After using them, the skin feels noticeably softer and more comfortable, not tight or overly treated. There’s a real improvement in how the skin holds moisture, which is especially important for mature skin. That added hydration translates directly into a smoother, more polished look.
I also use these beyond just the under-eye area. I’ve been applying them to my nasolabial folds, and they work beautifully there as well. That area tends to show dryness and creasing, and these patches help soften and plump the look of the skin, making everything appear more relaxed and less etched.
The finish they leave behind has a subtle glow — not shiny or greasy, but a healthy, hydrated look that makes the skin appear fresher and more even. It’s the kind of glow that comes from improved skin condition, not just surface-level shine.
From a value standpoint, the jar contains a generous number of patches, and because they can be used in multiple areas, they feel much more worthwhile than single-use treatments. A little time with these gives visible results, which makes them a good addition to a routine.
Overall, these are very well done. They deliver on hydration, softness, and smoothing while remaining gentle and comfortable to use. If you’re dealing with dryness, fine lines, or puffiness — especially with mature skin — these are absolutely worth trying.

Gentle Retinal — No Irritation for Me
Color: Pink (PDRN)
I was honestly nervous to try these because they contain retinal, and the under-eye area can be sensitive. But I had zero irritation. No burning, no redness, no peeling.
They feel cooling and soothing when applied, and the hydrogel texture stays in place without sliding around.
After consistent use, my under-eye area looks smoother and more refreshed. I’ve noticed subtle improvement in fine lines and overall brightness.
If you’re curious about trying retinal in a gentle way, this is a great entry point. Just make sure to use sunscreen during the day, as you would with any vitamin A product.

Such a pampering treat!
Color: Pink (PDRN)
Ok I love these!!! I’ve started using them almost every morning! They just feel like a little pamper before I start my day. They definitely tighten up my under eye and decrease puffiness. I try to leave them on for 25 min or so. Maybe not quite as good as the Peter Roth but I feel like I can use them frequently due to the reasonable price point and still see some results. I save the Peter Roth for a couple times a month. Definitely repurchasing these.

Hydrates well
Color: Pink (PDRN)
So far the product has been nice. My understanding is that eye area looks hydrated. It does not diminish the under eye bags. Have been using for a few weeks. Maybe I’ll give it more time to see better results.
