Product RAVE: SHEA MOISTURE!!!!



THE RUN DOWN

  • Shea Moisture Deep Treatment Masque 12oz

My FAV!! I usually leave this on for about 30mins-1hr and my hair is so soft. This mask increases the elasticity in my hair stands and allows me to further maintain my length. This is definitely a staple. I have also used it as a leave in but i prefer using it for DC. 

Ingredients: De-ionized water, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea butter), Argan oil, vegetable glycerin, emulsifying wax, sea kelp extract, Panthenol (vitamin B-5), essential oil blend, avocado oil, Lonicera Caprifolium (honeysuckle) flower and Lonicera Japonica (Japanese honeysuckle) flower extract, Tocopherol (vitamin E), Hyssopus Officinalis Extract, Salvia Officinalis (sage) leaf and Equisetum Arvense Extract, soybean oil and Daucus Carota Sativa (carrot) seed oil.



  • Shea Moisture Retention Shampoo 8oz



This is an amazing shampoo, it is very gentle & lathers great. This leaves the hair feeling very clean without stripping the hair stand. IT DETANGLES!!, smells great and has organic ingredients.  I usually use this after a pre-poo but the shampoo is so moisturizing you could probably skip pre-pooing.

Ingredients: De-ionized water, Decyl Glucoside (sugar beets), African Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea butter) (denotes certified organic ingredients), aloe vera leaf juice, Argan Oil, Panthenol (pro-vitamin B-5, rosemary extract, sea kelp extract, vitamin E, Lonicera Caprifolium (honeysuckle) flower and Lonicera Japonica (Japanese honeysuckle) flower extract.


  • SHEA MOISTURE RESTORATIVE CONDITIONER 8oz


This conditioner is very moisturizing! Great for co-washing and can also be used as a leave-in. It leaves my hair soft and smelling great.


Ingredients: De-ionized water, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea butter)*, Argan oil, coconut oil*, Behentrimonium chloride, essential oil blend, vegetable glycerin, emulsifying wax, sea kelp extract, Panthenol (vitamin B-5), avocado oil, Lonicera Caprifolium (honeysuckle) flower and Lonicera Japonica (Japanese honeysuckle) flower extract, Tocopherol (vitamin E) and Daucus Carota Sativa (carrot) seed oil. 


  • Shea Moisture Hold & Shine Moisture Mist- 8oz 

This is great when I'm wearing a braid out because I'm allowed to moisturize my hair with little manipulation! It instantly hydrates my hair and leaves a great shine. Smells great & gives a slight hold.

  • SHEA MOISTURE STRENGTHENING ELIXIR -4oz


    This is a great shine serum. It is lightweight and absorbs into the hair strand instead of just sitting on top of your hair. This elixir can also be used as a hot-oil treatment.

    Wowzza its been awhile!




    I MISSED yall soooo much and I have been a very BAD girl lol... hope you can forgive me =) I haven't updated my blog in theeee longest and I wanna thank yall' for sticking with me! Trust & believe it IS appreciated. Ok ok ok now n' case you missed it this is the most recent video posted and I have reviewed VATIKA coconut oil by DABUR ~~~>



    ^^^^THIS STUFF IS THE SHIZZNETTT!^^^^


    Some of the MANY benefits of coconut oil:

    • Coconut oil is used as a NATURAL conditioner for hair
    • Ordinary shampoo formulations results in protein loss during washing. =( Coconut oil can minimize protein loss, as it contains the medium-chain triglycerides that can pass through the cell membrane and waterproof the scalp and hair.
    • Contains Vitamin-E which keeps scalp and skin healthy and hair rejuvenated!
    • Coconut Oil also has a high moisture retaining capacity, since it is not broken down easily nor evaporated, being very stable. It does not let moisture escape thus keeping hair moistened and soft. This prevents breakage of hair. =)
    Coconut oil has also softened my hair texture & made it extremely managable! I must say that I like REGULAR extra virgin coconut oil because I prefer the smell of that compared to VATIKA's ! Litrally when I apply it to my hair it is INSTANTLY soft! I usually pre-poo, and deep condition with this oil. I ocassionally use the oil to "seal" my hair as well! I will be posting a vid later tonight so be on the look out!!!!!!
