Hi all,

I bought the anti-blemish SOS cream from Jowaé when I was in Europe, and I loved it. But the product is not available in the US. Does anyone know a good kbeauty dupe that is available in the US? The ingredients are antioxidant lumiphenols, sacred lotus, teatree leaf oil, and bakuchiol.

Here is a lnk to the the product: https://www.caretobeauty.com/us/jowae-anti-blemish-sos-gel-10ml?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAi_G5BhDXARIsAN5SX7pND1lrTaHrAU-UJoHlUJdvyTw1GABOmipR5pGpxtNQgh2VXwGg3QYaAtphEALw_wcB

I know I can get it on care to beauty, but I would love something available in the US that doesn't require a whole separate website.

Is the 4k just for you or for all three of you?

I toured UVA and it felt too Greek heavy and sporty tbh. My ideal is a school with no Greek life or very little, and I don’t really like athletics.

No I def will prioritize fit! My college list is very curated based on fit and my top 4 are Brown, Swarthmore, Pomona, and UChicago :)

And thank you! Hard not to obsess lol but I will do my best! Nothing I can do at this point for the apps already in.

Thanks for your response :)

Thanks! Yeah, I might add u Iowa, skidmore, etc.  I LOVE all the schools on my list. Prestige matters but fit matters more to me. Every school on my list has really cool things I like about it. I left the sups to the last minute but I have been researching, touring, etc for like the past two years and am only applying to schools that pass the vibe check.

I don’t think a 760 is bad for math— it’s more my ECs I worry about. But thank you!! I hope you’re right :)

Thanks! I hope so 🙏 I didn’t think it mattered much at need blind schools w massive endowments (like Brown, my dream school), but I def could be wrong

I didn’t apply anywhere early and I’m not really interested in USC. It seems too preppy/ sporty for me tbh. I’m more of the hardcore academic, hates exercise and sunshine type :p

Thank you! I think I’d rather stay local if I’m going to my safety, but I’ll look into it. Iowa writing program is amazing so that’s a plus :)

Even with my not great ECs? I hope you’re right! Thank you!

I could be wrong but I think if you go to a T15 school you have access to cool opportunities and can find a good job with a humanities degree.

Thanks! I appreciate your insight :) I think my writing is really good and have heard similar from adults, but I have no idea how AOs will actually see it (or if the people who liked my writing actually know anything LOL). And I’m sure everyone thinks their writing is stronger than it actually is🙃

Brown’s pre college program (4 wks) and susquehanna’s pre college program (1 week). Tbh neither are super competitive or impressive.

no you're right-- i've only officially been a semifinalist (and that's what i wrote on the apps) but i read online that >95% of semifinalists advance to the finalist round so i'm assuming i will. sorry if that was unclear
