In Mexico, there is a legend that tells the story of a witch who is said to fly on the wings of a bat. This witch, known as La Bruja de las Alas, is said to have the ability to transform into a bat and soar through the night sky. This myth has been passed down from generation to generation, and it continues to captivate the imaginations of both young and old alike. According to the legend, the witch is said to only appear on moonlit nights when the sky is completely clear. She is said to have a beautiful and enchanting appearance, with long flowing hair, piercing red eyes, and a black cloak that billows in the wind. The witch is said to use her powers to cast spells and perform magical rituals, often helping those in need.

This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.
The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water. When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job: glycerin.
This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: butyrospermum parkii butter, caprylic/capric triglyceride.
sesamum indicum seed oil 0.05% - 0.25% Irritation risk: Concentration:A good moisturizing plant oil. Due to the high linoleic acid content, it helps soften the upper layer of the skin, reduce water loss and support skin barrier function
butyrospermum parkii butter 1.9% - 2.9% Irritation risk:Comedogenicity: High
Concentration:A great moisturising ingredient that softens the skin and reduces water loss from its upper layer. It also can be helpful in protecting skin from free radicals
caprylic/capric triglyceride 1.1% - 1.6% Irritation risk: Concentration:A good mix of fatty acids that forms a protective layer on the skin. Improves the shelf life of products. Derived from coconut and glycerin

This product contains antioxidants (emblica officinalis fruit extract) that might be able to help neutralize free radicals in skin to lessen the damage it gets from the UV light (sun). There is not enough evidence to confirm their effectiveness in skin though.
emblica officinalis fruit extract 0.01% - 0.05% Irritation risk: Concentration:A plant extract that might be helping in neutralizing free radicals in skin. It could help reduce hyperpigmentation. There is some research to confirm its effectiveness in skin
butyrospermum parkii butter 1.9% - 2.9% Irritation risk:Comedogenicity: High
Concentration:A great moisturising ingredient that softens the skin and reduces water loss from its upper layer. It also can be helpful in protecting skin from free radicals

Reviews for "The modern witch movement in Mexico: How witchcraft is influencing contemporary culture"
1. Jane - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with "Witch on the Wings in Mexico". The story felt flat and unoriginal, with predictable plot twists and boring characters. I couldn't connect with any of them, and at times it felt like they were just going through the motions. The writing style was also quite lackluster, lacking depth and emotion. Overall, I found it to be a forgettable read that didn't live up to its potential.
2. Mark - 1 star - "Witch on the Wings in Mexico" was a complete letdown for me. The pacing of the story was all over the place, making it hard to follow and invest in the plot. The characters were shallow and one-dimensional, lacking any depth or development. Additionally, the dialogue felt forced and unrealistic, making it difficult to believe in the story. I had high hopes for this book but unfortunately, it fell short in every aspect. I wouldn't recommend it.
3. Sarah - 2 stars - I found "Witch on the Wings in Mexico" to be quite underwhelming. The world-building was weak, and I struggled to picture the setting in my mind. The magic system was poorly explained, leaving me confused and disconnected from the story. The pacing was slow, and there were numerous unnecessary and repetitive scenes that didn't contribute to the overall plot. The ending also felt rushed and unresolved. Overall, it lacked the excitement and depth I was hoping for in a fantasy novel.
