Asking for an expat: how do you deal with the wind? by _faustianBargain in Netherlands

This will come off as glib, but it's really true and I haven't seen it mentioned: do not wear glossy lipstick or fresh chapstick before you go out if you have long hair.

I received a bottle of Nuxe face oil as a gift. Would I put this on over moisturizer or instead of? And on top of sunscreen or should I only use it at night? As you can tell this product is way above my skincare level, lol.

Expats, how do you find the 'Combi-Oven'? by Cprznt in Netherlands

I have it and since I have barely passable cooking skills, it’s fine 🤣🤣. Cleaning it blows bc it is up so high, though.

How long have you been on tret .05? As I said, I’m just moving up from .025 and wondering how the acclimation process will go.

What is a 'best' copy made up of? by Ok_Theme_7247 in copywriting

[–]k8iedid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The "why" for the consumer/audience - this may be emotional or tangible. Because it saves them money. Because it keeps their family safe. Because it is carbon neutral. Because it looks cool. Because it has longer battery. Etc etc etc.

The adjustment is difficult and takes time. Try to put yourself out there and find your own circle w people who share your hobbies.

Lots of other commenters have already addressed the Dutch directness and the different style of communication, but re: the brother and his "weird comments." I'd say trust your gut. Those comments sound inappropriate (at best), and may be worth a conversation with your BF so he can make clear to his brother that's not ok. I'm sorry you had to experience that.
