White Ghosts, Yellow Peril is the first book ever to explore all sides of the relationship between China and New Zealand, and the peoples of China and New Zealand, during the whole of the seven or so generations after they initially came into contact.
The Qing Empire and its successor states from 1790 to 1950 were vast, complex and torn by conflict. New Zealand, meanwhile, grew into a small, prosperous, orderly province of Europe. Not until now has anyone told the story of the links and tensions between the two countries during those years so broadly and so thoroughly.
The reader keen to know about this relationship will find in this book a highly readable portrait of the lives, thoughts and feelings of Chinese who came to New Zealand and New Zealanders who went to China, along with a scholarly but stimulating discussion of race relations, government, diplomacy, war, literature and the arts.
White Ghosts, Yellow Peril for some years to come will be the key general text in the field of the early history of New Zealand and China.

Really Nice Hydrating Toner Pads
Scent: Collagen, Scent: Collagen
At 52, post-menopausal, with dry and increasingly sensitive skin, I’m very selective about toner pads. Many of them either feel too thin and ineffective or too active and irritating. These landed right in the middle in the best possible way — gentle, hydrating, and very easy to use.
The first thing I noticed is how well these pads are saturated. They’re not dripping, but they hold enough product to comfortably treat the entire face. The gel texture also makes them feel a little more substantial than typical toner pads, which I really like. They feel cooling and comfortable on the skin.
What I notice most after using them is how hydrated and slightly plumped my skin looks. This isn’t dramatic or instant, but it’s the kind of improvement that makes your skin look healthier and more comfortable. My skin feels smoother and softer, and it layers very well with the rest of my routine.
They also feel very lightweight. There’s no sticky or heavy residue, and once the essence absorbs, my skin just feels hydrated and calm. I can easily follow with serums and moisturizer without any pilling.
I also appreciate that these pads are gentle and very skin-compatible. I’ve had no irritation, redness, or sensitivity, even on days when my skin is feeling more reactive. At this stage, that matters more than aggressive results.
In terms of moisture, these do a really nice job. My skin feels comfortable after using them, and they work well as a prep step before the rest of my routine. On some mornings, they even give enough hydration that I don’t feel rushed to apply moisturizer immediately.
Fragrance is also worth mentioning. The scent is very light and subtle, and it doesn’t linger. I’m careful about fragrance, and these didn’t cause any sensitivity or irritation.
Another thing I like is how easy they are to use. They’re quick, convenient, and a nice step when I want hydration without adding another liquid toner.
Overall, these feel like a supportive, hydrating step that helps improve overall skin quality over time. They’re gentle, comfortable, and easy to incorporate into a daily routine.

Love These Toner Pads
Scent: Collagen
I’ve really been enjoying these Biodance Collagen Gel Toner Pads! They feel super refreshing on the skin and are an easy step to add into my routine. The pads are well-soaked without being messy, and they glide on smoothly.
After using them consistently, my skin feels more hydrated and looks a bit more plump and smooth. I’ve also noticed my pores appear slightly minimized, especially around my T-zone. They’re gentle enough for daily use and don’t irritate my skin.
Overall, a great option if you’re looking for a simple way to boost hydration and improve your skin’s overall look and feel!

Finally!!
Scent: Collagen
I have had huge pores with combination oily skin and dry skin since reaching my mid 30’s and makeup made them more prominent. Since adding these to my morning routine my makeup stays smooth with my pores minimized and skin looking and feeling healthier. After trying multiple products I finally found THE ONE.
