Description:
Richer nations are happier, yet economic growth doesn't increase happiness. This paradox is explained by the Hidden Wealth of Nations - the extent to which citizens get along with other independently drives both economic growth and well-being.
Much of this hidden wealth is expressed in everyday ways, such as our common values, the way we look after our children and elderly, or whether we trust and help strangers. It is a hidden dimension of inequality, and helps to explain why governments have found it so hard to reduce gaps in society. There are also deep cracks in this hidden wealth, in the form of our rising fears of crime, immigration and terror.
Using a rich variety of international comparisons and new analysis, the book explores what is happening in contemporary societies from value change to the changing role of governments, and offers suggestions about what policymakers and citizens can do about it.

shimmer
Color: Rose Gold
I recently tried the UCANBE Body Shimmer Oil, and I have to say, I'm really impressed! The oil has a beautiful, subtle shimmer that adds a touch of glow without being too overpowering. It feels luxurious on the skin, absorbing quickly and leaving it soft and smooth. I love how it gives my skin a healthy, radiant look, especially when I wear it on my legs and arms. The scent is light and refreshing, not too strong, which is a plus for me. Overall, it's perfect for a little extra sparkle on special occasions or just when I want to feel a bit extra on a regular day! Definitely recommend it if you're looking for a quality shimmer oil that doesn't feel greasy.

Bad Batch
Color: Gold
It was so thick & stinky. Had to toss it and take a shower right away. Couldn’t get it off my skin.

The glow is gorgeous and not over the top
Color: 100ml #03-Bronze Gold
If you want that golden hour shimmer without looking like a disco ball, this body oil is it. I got it for a beach trip and ended up using it almost every day since. It gives your skin the prettiest bronzy glow with just enough sparkle to catch the light without feeling glittery or sticky.
It blends in super smoothly and actually makes my skin look healthier. I’ve used it on my collarbones, shoulders, and even mixed a tiny bit into my foundation when I want that sun-kissed look. The scent is light and pretty too, not overpowering at all.
A little goes a long way, so the bottle lasts. Plus it doesn’t transfer all over my clothes, which is a major win. If you love that radiant summer look or want to fake a tan without streaks, you’ll love this.
Would totally buy again. Feels like a mini vacation in a bottle.
