Dark And Lovely Ultra-Cholesterol Conditioning Mask Review

Most often, I use a deep conditioner that needs to be left on for more than 15 minutes and requires heat to work. However, I needed an alternative deep conditioner that I can fall on when am tied up and won't require time and heat in order to work. I was browsing through the product arsenal of The Game shop when I came across the Dark and Lovely Ultra-cholesterol conditioning mask 500ml by Softsheen Carson and decided to purchase it.
Price: Ghs10.00

What the product says: Dark & Lovely Ultra Cholesterol Conditioning Mask is an intensive conditioning treatment specially formulated with Panthenol and Vitamin E derivative. This unique formula nourishes, moisturizes and helps protect against split ends while gently detangling dry, damaged hair.
Ingredients: Aqua/water, Cetearyl Alchohol, Paraffinum, Liquid/Mineral oil, PEG-40 hydrogenated Castor Oil, Cetrimonium Chloride, Polyquatemium-37, Phenoxyethanol, Propylene Glycol Dicaprylate/Dicaprate, Methylparaben, PPG-1 Trideceth-6, Hexyl Cinnamal, Butylphenyl Methylpropional, Benzyl Salicylate, CI 19140/Yellow 5, Tocopheryl Acetate, Panthenol, Cholesterol, CI 47005/Acid Yellow, Parfum/Fragrance.  (F.I.L.D277221/1)

My View: The first thing that stands out is the colour-yellow and a carrot like smell. It is thick but not too thick and creamy-I always prefer creamy products to watery ones. When I applied it to my hair the first time, I, immediately notice how easily it can be massaged into the hair, this hasn't changed. Honestly, when I decided to use it, I was apprehensive about how my hair will take it since I wasn't using heat. At the end of the recommended 7 minutes, I left with soft and smooth hair and without tangles. I don't know if the castor oil has any hand in how moisturized the hair felt! In my recent wash day, I heated it up and it turned frothy but it still blended well with the other deep conditioner. Anyway, I checked other reviews and on amazon, it was starred 4.5 out of 5, which is impressive for me. Will I stick to it? Yes, because it works for my hair. At least I know when am out of time, my hair won't suffer.

How I make forever Clair Skin care products work for me

I've heard ladies complain about the forever Claire Skin care products  not working for them. Well, I nearly became one until I tweaked how I use it and since then, it's been a jolly good ride. I started using the Forever Claire products in July 2013 or so. What I've been doing is to using a cleanser first before applying any of the products. Well, I discovered the reason why the product didn't seem to be working well on its own. When using the cleanser, I'll dab a bit of cotton in it to clean my face. Apparently, it wasn't the cleanser that was doing the work, it was the cotton. The cotton was getting rid of dead cells by acting as an "exfoliating" material. It was cleaning the skin surface. One evening, I skipped the cleansing and decided to follow Hubby's method of cleaning his face. I used my sponge to gently rub the FC product on the face. This face scrubbing technique left my skin feeling soft and smooth just like when I use the cotton and cl...

How To: Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse

I want to share six ways you can use apple cider vinegar in your hair journey. Most of us know the components/ingredients so we will skip that.  1. Pre shampoo rinse: Dilute one one teaspoon of apple cider vinegar with half cup of water. You should, however, consider the length of your hair in deciding on the quantity.  2. Post shampoo rinse : When you are done with your wash, you can use the diluted acv as a final rinse to close the cuticles.  3. Scalp rinse : Some also focus the rinse on their scalp than the hair. What you can do is to apply with applicator bottle.  4. Post relaxer rinse: Again, acv can be used after washing out your relaxer. It should be the final step. Leave for a couple of minutes and rinse out.  5. Braids scalp maintenance: Dilute the acv, use a cotton to apply and rub your scalp to remove dirt.  6. Together with Ayurvedic herbs: ACV can be used in your henna treatment to facilitate dye release. It can be added to clay treatment too t...
