My mom mocked the new serum price

It's the same as my mom, I experience similar things. When they think of serum, they associate it with medicine, and most of them regard skin stuff as 'a waste of time.' I don't think you should worry too much; if you're seeing the benefits, keep going.

Did you say the price of the serum or did he find the receipt or something? Does he do this often? 🙃

I left the receipts on the table without drinking coffee, you know that. Actually, this has happened before with my clothes and stuff, and he always comments on it.

@makarnaoncesi, you can't say that, of course, but these things are very personal. Everyone's budget and priorities are different. I think you shouldn't put too much pressure on your mom; she responded quite rationally.

Skin health actually affects overall health in the long run, especially if you are experiencing serious issues. If you have received it on the advice of a dermatologist, it is already a necessity. You can discuss this situation in detail with your family, as it should ultimately be considered a health expense.

But the headline is a bit exaggerated. When I saw 'made fun of', honestly, I expected something different. Mothers generally dismiss these kinds of things; it's a classic situation.

Is beauty coming with soap? That's funny, of course.

My mom is the same way, I found a cream that was amazing, but when she heard the price, she almost threw it in the trash out of anger. I've learned to stop showing her certain things, and you can do that too.

@yazipsildim if you have a real skin problem, this is not a rational response. Things like acne can create psychological pressure, and I think simplifying it is wrong 🙄
