[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have no problem with the face cream. I can see how that came across after rereading my post . However, she can buy all the beauty products in the world, but good science tells us that sleep, lots of water, low stress, actual Botox, or dermoabrasion, or staying out of the sun and eating a good diet will work better than some OTC cream in a bottle that claims things that probably amount to a placebo effect on the user. She could spend $500 on a cream, and that’s fine, I just feel I should be able to say hey “you know there’s a ton of false marketing, which is documented by verifiable sources, on the thousands of beauty products out there, and that’s what doctors and experts actually say about this, so your skin looks great hun, but that’s my opinion.”

Your wife knows all these things.  She doesn't need you to mansplain the benefits of face cream vs other wellness behaviors.  The fact that you're doubling down on needing to explain how much you know and understand about these things just shows you're insufferable.

If I say to my man, wow this face cream is helping my skin so much, isn't it? I look great! His response should me to come squeeze and rub me and affirm that yes, I look great in his eyes.

You're not her father or science teacher who needs to teach her the complexities of the world, especially not around cosmetics. [/quote]
