The Antiquary, Scott's personal favorite among his novels, is characteristically wry and urbane. A mysterious young man calling himself 'Lovel' travels idly but fatefully toward the Scottish seaside town of Fairport. Here he is befriended by the antiquary Jonathan Oldbuck, who has taken refuge from his own personal disappointments in the obsessive study of miscellaneous history. Their slow unraveling of Lovel's true identity will unearth and redeem the secrets and lies which have devastated the guilt-haunted Earl of Glenallan, and will reinstate the tottering fortunes of Sir Arthur Wardour and his daughter Isabella.First published in 1816 in the aftermath of Waterloo, The Antiquary deals with the problem of how to understand the past so as to enable the future. Set in the tense times of the wars with revolutionary France, it displays Scott's matchless skill at painting the social panorama and in creating vivid characters, from the earthy beggar Edie Ochiltree to the loquacious and shrewdly humorous Antiquary himself.
The text is based on Scott's own final, authorized version, the "Magnum Opus" edition of 1829.

Best as hand lotion. My keyboard is happy :-)
Scent: Lavender, Size: 32 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I use this lotion several times a day after handwashing. I think it's meant for frequent use as a hand lotion, therefore the giant size bottle and light, non-greasy, quick absorption formula. It does not leave a palpable film on my hands or on surfaces I touch, such as my phone, sunglasses, car doors, light switches, keyboard, remote control, etc. Also has a very matte finish. Great in hot weather when you don't want to feel coated. Not sufficiently emollient to be a body lotion. The lavender scent is close to that of a lavender plant, ie somewhat herbal.

Great for and Inexpensive Lotion
Scent: Aloe & White Tea, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Scent: Aloe & White Tea, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I wanted to get lotion that smells like BVLGARI Thé Blanc Eau De Toilette and all my research pointed to this; while it doesn't smell exactly like it...it comes close.
The smell clean smell and not too strong, which I like...and the price is without a doubt much better than the real thing.
So, for an inexpensive body lotion, I do recommend it, even if it's not an exact match for Bvlgari.

great if you wanna just keep buying more and never actually moisturize
Scent: Aloe & White Tea, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
this is the least moisturizing lotion I have ever used in my entire life. it goes on so thick and smooth and feels great and smells great but then a couple hours later my skin feels dry and needs more.. and if you put it on at night, when you wake up the next morning, your skin is completely ashy and flaky. It’s absolutely awful.
