Simplicity S8941 Regency Gown & Robe Sewing Pattern is a beautiful, easy-to-make historical costume perfect for Jane Austen events.

The gown consists of an adjustable bodice with a gathered front and fitted back, which can be made with 3/4 sleeves and no train, or long sleeves and a full train. The open robe features a fitted bodice that hooks in front and is designed to be worn over the gown, and can be made with long sleeves or short, and with a train or not. All of the pieces in this pattern are interchangeable.

This costume can be worn without stays. The underbodice is darted at the bust, which can easily be adjusted or eliminated to be worn with stays as well. The gown features drawstring closures on the overbodice at empire waist and bustline, which allows for adjustability and preference for fit.

Great for Oily, Rash-Prone Skin, But Be Wary of the Residue
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This sunscreen is a really solid option if you have sensitive, rash-prone, and oily skin like mine. I’ve found it’s one of the few sunscreens that doesn't cause any irritation, which is a huge benefit for me. On top of that, it leaves a truly matte finish, so I don't feel greasy or shiny throughout the day. The only reason I can't give it five stars is that it leaves behind small, dried white bits on my face. They can be a bit annoying and make the application look a little messy. Overall, it's a good sunscreen that works well with my skin type, but the white residue is a definite drawback.

This stuff is magic!
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I farm and garden. I spend hours outdoors in the summer, and for years, I’ve hated wearing sunscreen because it made my face feel hot and sticky. This sunscreen is none of that. I received a small sample tube of it from the dermatologist and instantly fell in love with it. It goes on smooth and covers well. But the thing I love about it is that I don’t feel like I’m wearing sunscreen once it absorbs into my skin. I forget about it! It doesn’t combine with my sweat and run into my eyes, making them sting. It doesn’t irritate sensitive skin or clog my pores. This stuff is magic and I will be using it daily. It’s not the least expensive sunscreen out there, but it’s worth it!

Excellent sun protection with a lightweight, non-greasy formula. It feels great on the skin and has become a staple in my daily routine. Will buy again!

Terrible white cast
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
You will look like you just got blasted by Jack Frost in the middle of the summer. This sunscreen could double as a hair identifier from the way it clings to each strand, leaving an incredibly noticeable white residue. I am very fair and on my skin itself the white cast is much less obvious/fades, my eyebrows on the other hand? Frostbitten. Snow swept. Bringing to mind polar bears and penguins. It's an alright sunscreen. Does the job. Does not look good while doing it.

Great Product
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Most importantly, this stuff works! And I absolutely love that it’s not greasy. My face isn’t shiny or slick when i apply it. I’ve had no issues with my skin tolerating this sunscreen.
