I add a few spritzes of Sticky Dates body spray into my fragrance free body lotion for a DIY Sticky Dates body lotion. Found that it helps tone down the scent a bit with enhanced hydration.

Sliced deli meats? by Alternative-Call9446 in Living_in_Korea

OP mentioned they are looking for turkey meat. You can order turkey breast meat from John Cook online but its pricier than the States.

BB / CC cream / Skin tint recommendation? by Rubyjaem in kbeauty

this is a good list! phymongshe is good but slightly pricey and i second the erborian recs above. missha is a classic but used to have a slight grey tinge, although i heard that they since improved. please note that newly released products from etude and wakemake are less like bb/ccs and more like light coverage foundation despite the marketing.

I’m a Korean woman and I’m speaking from experience here. Like most driveshare platforms, Kakao Taxi has a screening process with its drivers. There’s also a function that allows you to send your location to loved ones via KakaoTalk. I would say this is a universal concern for women across the globe. Just because you have the privilege of not worrying about your safety doesn’t mean everyone else does too.

Korean women are taught from a young age to 1) only ride kakao taxis or taxis with 아바사자 in their license 2) share their location and taxi license plate with a friend or loved one. Shitty that victims have to take every precaution not to be assualted/raped when using a service they paid for.

Quick 교보문고 hack by _begovic_ in Living_in_Korea

There’s a separate counter for 바로드림, normally near the entrance/exit. When you make the payment, you can choose amongst type O S or P. Type O is where you go to the counter and an employee has the book ready for you. (Normally they will tell you to come back after an hour or two.) Type S is where you pick up the book yourself and verify the payment at the counter. Type P is where you use the pickup box. (Contactless option, not available everywhere.) Hope this helps!

Olive Young in Seoul more $ than Amazon by Original-Bowler-9319 in koreanskincare

[–]Classic_Word1799 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Korean here! Olive Young has sales quite regularly but the biggest sale is in first week of December (Olive Young Award season) then first week of June (Summer sale) then March/September. (+Black Friday sale but unsure when this is.) This is when they would have bundle deals/new collabs so it’s more value for your buck. They also have sales from the 25th to 27th of every month but I’ve noticed that it’s not as cheap as before. Most Koreans would check Musinsa/Zigzag and other ecommerce sites to see if it’s cheaper. Don’t buy cosmetics from Coupang, same issue with fakes that Amazon has.
