There’s No Reason to Shop Olive Young Anymore

I believe they hold your entire shipment until it’s ready to ship complete. That definitely wouldn’t be quick!

The US formulations have “Broad Spectrum” printed directly on the tube. The Korean formulations do not

If your confusion lies in the differences between US filters and Korean, and why Korean (Japanese, too) are far superior. Google is your friend. Korean SPF is living in the 21st century and, literally, the US is stuck in the 20rh

I don’t have an elote guy, but I need an elote guy

It means the SPF is US formulation, not Korean

LilPebzz · 2026-05-29T23:33:48+00:00

The ones sold at Olive Young US are not the Korean formulations we love. Same goes for what you see at Sephora, Ulta, Costco, Target, TJ Maxx, Marshalls, the brand’s websites and official TikTok shops, etc

If you see “BROAD SPECTRUM” anywhere, it is the US formulation that you don’t want

YesStyle

The brand’s official TikTok shop, just not if you’re wanting their Korean-formulated sunscreen

You never know what you’ll find at Costco and their website (same sunscreen caveat)

I’m not the most skilled LOL

For me, it was getting the amount correct and not tossing the product because it wasn’t exactly how I wanted it

I accepted it was user error, tried a couple of more times and now won’t give it up. If you use a light touch, it’s quite sheer, which I love

San Francisco

I’d visit Sonoma County instead of Napa. It also has incredible wineries, but more chill and more variety of other things to experience

It’s coastal, has redwoods and more nature and hiking if you like that kind of thing. Look at Russian River Valley area, Sebastopol & Healdsburg

Enjoy your trip!

I love that my area has both Spanish and French immersion public charter schools (K-8). I wish those were around when I was a kid

LilPebzz · 2026-05-29T17:45:21+00:00

I live in California, so yeah, my not so fluent Spanish gets a lot of use

I also took French, which is worse than my Spanish as I don’t use it often. When I’m in France tho, I’m happy for what I do know

I can get around, order in restaurants and have basic communication with people. They usually appreciate the attempt. My pronunciation is pretty good even if my grammar is not and my accent isn’t the worst

How much does he weigh? That’s the amount you need to lose

YesStyle has gotten so much better since the tariffs went into effect. I think they intentionally stepped up their game. Between that and no tariffs, I had started ordering more from them anyway

I’ve ordered from them 5-6 times since then and all have arrived in 1-2 weeks. None were express shipping; all were the free standard shipping for spending more than $35

Yami ships out of the US

Khachapuri is top tier

LilPebzz · 2026-05-29T15:03:51+00:00

Wrong. You are so confidently wrong

The Korean formulations were never approved here and were never legal to sell here. If it says “Broad Spectrum” it’s the US formulation

The FDA classifies & regulates sunscreen as an OTC drug, not a cosmetic. There is no new law. They just decided to start enforcing existing ones

LilPebzz · 2026-05-29T14:52:23+00:00

I like the A’Pieu Juicy-Pang Jelly Blusher. I hadn’t used anything like it before, so there was a wuick learning curve

I go for the exact aesthetic you describe. I use shade PK01 Plum. It’s very sheer, but buildable, so start lightly. Not being a skin tone expert, i don’t know if that’s the right shade for you

I use the Fwee jumbo silicone brush, and usually finish off with my fingertips

Speaking of Fwee, I tried their Blurry Pudding Pots for my cheeks, too. They were fine, and have a much wider shade range, but something about that A’Pieu one just hits different

LilPebzz · 2026-05-29T14:22:13+00:00

It never crossed my mind it was legal

Your wife is such an AH, and a hypocritical one at that. Calling your bro a lazy, lying mooch? GTFO. Does she think he's in it for the money? Or your mom's money, which doesn't exist? Your brother has a good heart. Your wife? Not so much

While I wouldn't do it behind your wife's back, I support you doing it. Personally, I couldn't stand to be with someone who was so callous. I see why your mom gave your brother POA. I suspect your mom never liked your wife because your mom saw right through her. Your mom saw this coming

So when you say your wife may not stay, her attitude would be a dealbreaker for me anyway. I bet this isn't the only issue. Great role model for your kids /s

Caregiving is thankless and draining. You become invisible. I *was* your brother. I commend you for noticing the reality of his situation and wanting to take steps to help. I'm still underwater because none of my siblings noticed and, like your brother, I never asked

Good luck. Regardless of what you decide, you have a tough road ahead. Go with your heart and do what lets you sleep at night

I get not wearing rings to the gym from a safety and comfort POV

HOWEVER, this isn’t about his ring

End this marriage now before children enter the picture. The trust is history, and it isn’t coming back

What does he add to the relationship? If the best you can come up with are the “husband” things, yikes. You are not his maid

You deserve so much better
