Product Review: Carol’s Daughters: Hair Milk – The Curl Collection

06/21/2010 Product , 2 Comments Posted by Lorna


As a loyal customer of Carol’s Daughter, skin and hair line, as well as The Original Hair Milk,  I was delighted to sample the new hair product line from Carol’s Daughter.  I was lucky to sample the Hair Milk- The Curl Collection which includes a Hair Milk Shampoo, Conditioner, Original Hair Milk (Curl Definer)  and Hair Milk Lite (Curl Boost).

I tried the whole line and I love the way my hair feels and looks.  Typically, I am unsuccessful in finding an entire hair line that works for my hair. My hair is curly, unruly and full. So, I have a difficult time finding products that manage, moisturize and strengthen my hair. Usually, I use a shampoo from one company, use a conditioner from another and use a random moisturizer to tame my wild mane. But, that’s all changed with this series.

Carol’s Daughter Hair Milk Collection, allowed me to have a one stop shop for my hair.    Using Carol’s Daughter was exhilarating. And, I could feel the natural ingredients working instantly. I kid you not.  The shampoo cleansed my hair without stripping it and had a faint citrus scent. The conditioner detangling my hair, preventing unnecessary breakage. The Hair Milk Lite defined my curls without weighting down my curls. All in all my hair feels stronger, is less frizzy and looks shiny.

Carol’s Daughter Hair Milk –The Curl Collection does not contain Petroleum or Mineral Oil . It does contain hair quenching ingredients such as Apricot Oil, Cocoa/ Shea Butter,vitamins B5, A & E.

Happy Curly Girl,

Product Review: Tasty Food Alert- SunButter ® Natural Crunch

Do you remember being a child and loving P&J sandwiches? I do! It was an easy to make to healthy snack.  But that childhood favorite can be dangerous to people with peanuts allergies.  So dangerous in fact that peanut butter has been banned practical everywhere.  And, that’s were SunButter comes in.  The makers created a healthy substitute using sunflower seeds that tastes remarkably like peanut butter; best of all the substitute is very unlikely to cause an allergy attack as sunflower seeds have a very low allergy rate (virtually zero).  Now people can enjoy SunButter & jelly sandwiches without fear of a deathly attack.  Additionally, SunButter has a “butter” that caters to many individual preferences – selections include gluten free, smooth, chunky and so much more.

I recently tried the SunButter Natural Crunch. The butter has a rich flavor. It is a little more oily compared to peanut butter.  The crunch is milder because sunflower seeds are much smaller than peanuts. I very much enjoy eating it on celery stalk, crackers and on the classic P& J…better known as the need S&J J.

Try one of SunButter products : SunButter Creamy, SunButter  Organic Unsweetened, SunButter  On The Go SunButter  Snack Pack, SunButter  Natural, SunButter  Natural Crunch, SunButter  Natural Omega-3

Other reason to love: Made right here in USA, High in protein & 27% Daily of Vitamin E

Product Review: Bodycology Body Wash (Soy Milk & Shea Butter)

04/14/2010 Product , No Comments Posted by Lorna

Spring is here and Summer is quickly approaching! It’s that time to shape up, pull out those flowy dresses and get those pastel pedi /medi sets. I personally think gorgeous skin is this season’s hot pick. What is more  important than have glowing, soft, luminous skin? Nothing.

I have been using Bodycology Soy Milk & Shea Butter bodywash for last couple of weeks and I adore it! My skin now screams touch me ;  This is perfect because I have been fighting with adult acne and and not feeling my bestbut bodycology new line of bodywash makes me feels so flirty  and caress able.

Here is what I like about the product:

-          It has a delicate scent, a man can still smell my personal pheromones …ohhh lala

-          It literally quenches the skin. I do not need lotion after showering and you know NYC has some hard water.

-          It is multi-purpose; I use it as a shaving cream. No razor bumps afterward either.

-          It is AFFORDABLE and easy to find. It can be found at Walgreens and as low as $4.99. Although, it’s inexpensive it  feels and works like department store quality.

You can checkout their other products at www.bodycology.com . Don’t  just take my word, you will definitely like it!

Cheers Maisha Dang

Review: Sunday Riley–Good Genes Treatment (Thumbs Up)

As a lady, I am not suppose to tell my age. So, I am told.  That’s okay because this product will definitely aid one in looking youthful.  Now that I am in my 30s, I have been experiencing adult acne.  Can you believe it? It is horrible! I tried everything from natural remedies, department store & drugstore facial products, even seeing an acupuncturist. In the end, I have over processed my face. It was dry, red, hype-pigmented and extremely tight from lack of moisture.  Then a blessings fall from the sky in the form of Sunday Riley –Good Genes Treatment. Although, this product is expensive ($105 for 1oz), it is totally worth it. It instantly smoothed my irritated skin, brightened my complexion and reduced my dark spots.

It has a very faint scent and a light creamy consistency.  When I applied the cream to my face, I felt like water to a dehydrated man on a desert. I know that sound corny but it is so true.  I recommend this product to individuals that want to age gracefully (avoid those wrinkles) or individuals with trouble skin that need a product that heals the skin verse using marketing to make you think the product is good.  You can find  Sunday Riley –Good Genes Treatment at Barney’s or online.

What Makes It Work-  Sunday Riley Good Genes Treatment secret (well not so secret combination) is the NV-5. Nv-5 is a complex combination of 5 Native American Botanicals: Blue Agave, Night Blooming Cactus, Lady’s Slipper Orchid, Pricky Pear, Biofermented Aloe plus Yeast extract. These natural ingredients aid in cell damage repair, prevents aging skin that is cause to inflammation and detoxifies the skin.

Honeycat Cosmetics: Sweet Kit Tea Body Butter

12/04/2009 Product , 1 Comment Posted by Lorna

honeycatHot product of the day is Sweet Kit Tea Body Butter from Honeycat Cosmetics.

Honeycat has a flirty, sexy feline as the lines icons and their motto is “ Sexy, fun, clean and hip…that’s Honeycat.” And, their mission  is too offer all women skin indulging treats.  Their line includes products such as body lotions, bubble baths, lip balm, gift baskets, foot scrubs, edible body powder and opps! Packs to name a few. What’s more, the product names pretty are really interesting.  The playful names include, Sweet Potatoes Bubble Bath, CHICK OF THE SEA Foaming Bath Crystals & Sweet Kit Tea Body Butter.

I was fortunate to receive some of the HoneyCats, to try and share my take online with you guys.  I absolutely adore and love these pampering treats! My favorite item thus far is the Sweet Kit Tea Body Butter.  First off, I am not the kind of woman that hides her natural scent with perfumes and/or body washes; I like to use my natural pheromones to attract the opposite sex.    So, I was surprise that I enjoyed the product.  The Sweet Kit Tea Body Butter,  feels so luxurious on my skin  and has light and sweet smell.   At first the lotion may feel greasy but once  its applied it feels like the skin has been quenched.  The butter absorbs into your skin and leaves you feeling smooth.

All in all, I think the products are of high quality, actually spa like for the private pleasures at home.  You cannot go wrong with a cute and sexy image.  What’s cool is that the products are moderately priced.  Currently, there’s a promotion on the website were  if you spend $50 or more you receive a free Honeycat tank top (JUST in time for Holidays).  And, did I mention you can get free love advice on the site?

Silky Kitten,
