SheaMoisture Leave In Conditioner

Shea Moisture-Super fruit Multi-Vitamin Leave In Detangler with Marula Oil

Recently, I have started using Shea moisture products and I have absolutely been loving the brand.  I have very long curly hair topped with the wonderful aging process of getting older, so I am always on the look out for good natural products that are healthy for my hair and my skin.

Shea Moisture Super Fruit Multi-Vitamin Leave In Detangler with Marula Oil and Biotin is my newest product I have been using. I honestly cannot comb out my hair without using a detangler and a detangler comb.  So I purchased this product as a trail run and I have fallen in love with it since I have been using it. 

The Shea Moisture Company was started in 1912 by Sofi Tucker who started out selling Shea Nuts at a village in Bonthe Sierra Leone.  Soon she was selling her skin care and hair care products throughout the country side. 

This product conditions, softens, detangles, hydrates, nourishes and protects your hair.  That is not all the product does  but these are things I am experiencing on my own hair after using the product.  This Leave In Detangler is a beautiful blend of berries such as red raspberries, goji, acari and guava extracts.  All of which are rich in protective antioxidants. Marula oil provides fatty acids and is rich in Omega-9 that deeply hydrates your hair.  And the Biotin is multi-vitamins that nourishes your hair.

SheaMoisture products are sulfate, paraben and phthalaties free.  There is no propylene glycol or mineral oil in the product and there are is NO animal testing!!

I apply about a quarter size amount of the detangler to my hand and massage it into my damp hair;  I start at the roots and work down to my ends. I let it set for just a minute or so and than I proceed with my detangler comb.  If you have stubborn knots, add a little more detangler and you are set to go.

The end results is my hair feels more healthier than it has in a long time.  This is a product I would highly recommend trying especially if you are in the 'mature' age range.

Shea Moisture Mud Mask

Here's to Mud on the Face

During my research and watching a ton of videos on YouTube by some of my favorite people I have heard one of them talk about this brand.  One of my favorite people is LittlePoet on YouTube, talk about someone having the energy of an Earth Angel, she is it!!

One of the products she talked about on a video is Shea Butter Soap.  Something I have learned most about LittlePoet's videos is: for me her videos are a reminder for me, where my roots are.  I have always been a huge fan of natural skin care and somehow I have fell from the wagon but I am back on it now. 

Anyway, researching and finding this brand lead me to Ulta  (which by the way, they still have a sale running on these products) and as I was looking through the products, the mud mask really stood out to me.  Okay, for the past months, I have been obsessed with using face mask. Seriously, if it wouldn't hurt, I would mask everyday-I love them that much.  I wrote an article about a couple of wonderful face mask I found at a drug store called: Over Night Facial Mask Revised.  

I purchased Shea Moisture Coconut & Hibiscus Radiance Mud Mask and another one. I love the smell of Hibiscus anyway, so to me, this mud mask smells pretty good which makes it easier to use.  This mud mask also has Songyi Mushroom in it which helps with the radiance of your skin. Coconut Oil (being the wonderful product it is) gives us a lot Vitamin E and K, Iron and fatty acids and the Hibiscus is great for treating dry skin. 

But why mask anyway? When you use a mask regularly, you are removing the impurities from your skin and removing dead skin cells.  These are the things that makes your skin dull and flat. When you use a mask on a regular base, you will find your skin looking brighter and more radiant.  

To use this mask, apply a thin layer all over your face (be sure to avoid the eyes) and allow to dry for ten minutes. Will it hurt to leave it on longer? Well, the other night when I used it, I put it on and went back to the computer to finish up something I was working on, 30 minutes later I remembered I had a mask on!  Wiping it off, was so easy.. you just use a dampened wash cloth.. once the mask is removed, you are left with the softest most radiant skin ever! I love this stuff!!

Oh, and I did purchase the soap too.  I have not used it on my face yet, but I have used it in the shower and it is fantastic!! The only problem, which isn't a problem at all.. is the bar of soap is really big for my hands.. *laughs* but that isn't a problem, that means you are getting a good deal on the product!!   If you have used these products, please leave a note and share your experience with it.
