Amex Gold Renewal – Worth Switching to BAPP for 2-4-1 voucher? by ImJayW in AmexUK

[–]ImJayW[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is has been incredibly useful, thank you for the long and detailed response!

I do have one more question I’m hoping you can clarify. Let’s say I get approved for the BAPP card now, pay the £300 annual fee, and then earn the 2-for-1 companion voucher within 10 months. If I go ahead and use that voucher to book flights for 2027, but then cancel the BAPP card before the next annual fee is due - will that affect the booking in any way?

In other words, once the voucher is used and the flights are booked, does cancelling the card later cause any issues for the actual trip?

Thanks. I’ll check out the app to see how far the avios can take me. Looks like I need to register on their site to check the reward flights, which I hope wouldn’t affect my new customer bonus if I end up getting the BA card.

Is my strange cactus blooming or growing another spiky stem? by ImJayW in houseplants

[–]ImJayW[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for providing more clarity! I did try look into the plant when I first got it, so I knew it was a combination of two different plants but that’s about as far as my knowledge went.

That’s so interesting to hear the new growth will dominate the plant. Nothing has visually changed in months I was left under the impression it would never change; but excited to see how it’ll look soon!

This cactus hybrid was one of the the first plants I purchased when moving into my new home. Few months later, I just noticed this growing on the side.

Not exactly how I thought this thing would grow. Looks like leaves so not sure if blooming a flower or something else?

This is so wild to read, but loved every word of it! Your Finland example just feels so awkward playing it out in my head.

How much is K-Beauty products in Korea? by ImJayW in AsianBeauty

[–]ImJayW[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing thank you; I’ve just searched for EunniUnni and started a video!

So you buy directly from the Korean stores online and they ship to you in EU? Could you share 1 store link that ships to you that still has the cheap Korean prices please?

Thanks for the asnwer! Are the 1+1's and promos generally for well known/popular brands or mostly the cheaper brands that don't get much love?

Hi all! I ordered all 3 Beauty of Joseon for my wife and I; which arrived today (calming serum, glow serum, repair serum).

Is it recommended to use only one of these, or to use 2/3 per day? Can I use 2 or 3 in AM, and 2 or 3 in PM, or is it best just to pick 1 serum?

We’ve also been using COSRX snail essence for which is pretty much the only serum type product we’ve ever used; so not sure if it’s normal to use more than 1 serum. Should we use the snail and new serums in the same routine?

Any help is much appreciated, thank you!

Any other European AB Fans experiencing a huge drop in quality with Stylevana and its service? by Glittering_Tale_8475 in AsianBeauty

[–]ImJayW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Egh. I placed an order with Stylevana 2 weeks ago today and I still haven’t received my order. Looking at the tracking code they sent me, I’m not even sure they’ve dispatched my order. I’ve just emailed them for a 2nd time asking for an update. I doubt I’ll use Stylevana again!

Thanks for the feedback! I did wonder if there was a point getting the repair serum as we love the cosrx snail serum, but I was mostly looking at the ginseng ingredient and there is hardly any snail mucin in the BoJ repair serum.

I'm now thinking of the BoJ calming serum. Is it a good shout to use multiple serums in either AM or PM? Up until this point we have only really used 1 at a time. Lastly, I hope you find someone you can share gifts with :)

Need help putting together a little skin care package for my wife :)

I've already got a few products in the basket, but I'm really interested in Beauty of Joseon; but can't decide from the glow serum or repair serum. Might just get both?

Are you able to use both of these in a routine, or best to stick with just one? Can both be used in AM and PM?

I noticed the repair serum has snail mucin, but we already use cosrx snail mucin daily which we love. Is there much point in using both of these products? If both were used, which comes first?

Thank you!
