Product Review: Motions Moisture Plus Conditioner

-->
Here's my review of the Motions Moisture plus as requested

Full name: Motions Moisture Plus Conditioner
Price: 15gh
Purchased: Local cosmetic shop at American House/ can be found at Accra mall cosmetic shops
What it says: With Silicone and Panthenol, For medium to Coarse textures. For relaxed, pressed, natural and weaved hair.Radiantly shiny, healthy-looking hair can be yours with Motions moisture plus conditioner. The thick, emollient formula infuses each strand of hair with ultra-moisturizing conditioners to help transform your hair from dry and dull to glam and gorgeous.

Directions: Apply an ample amount, cover with shower cap and rinse after 3-5 minutes.

Some ingredients: Water, mineral oil, Polyquaternium-32, Glycerin...Avocado oil, hydrolyzed silk.

How I Used It:
*Pre poo- applied to hair to serve as a barrier before shampooing
*Co-wash: applied on wet hair to cleanse the hair
*Deep conditioner: applied on wet hair, covered with cap as per instructions and rinsed out after 5 minutes

My Thoughts
*Consistency: Extremely thick which makes applying on dry hair quite tedious. I sometimes diluted with water to make it lighter before application.

*Smell: light fruity smell which doesn't linger after rinsing

*Ingredients: I purchased it for the purpose of "moisture" but when I saw hydrolyzed silk even as a last ingredient, I just knew I wouldn't get the result I wanted - I'd severe protein overload and needed some form of moisture treatment. 
Understandably, my protein overloaded hair didn't respond well to this product; however, I recently used it again on the new texlaxed hair and it felt amazingly soft and smooth! In the nutshell, I think experiencing that softness means that it was my hair that had the problem at first and the not the product.

Generally, it's pretty moisturizing though not on the "plus" side.

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...

The 60 Seconds Skin Care Rule

The 60 seconds rule regarding washing your face is a great technique that has been used by a lot of skin care addicts.  When washing your face, the one trick that can make a lot of difference in your skin is washing for 60 seconds! Once you apply your facial wash/cleanser/soap, you massage or sweep it around your face for 60 seconds. This allows the cleanser to penetrate the pores and clear the dirt off your skin. All the make up  can also be easily absorbed by your cleansing oil too. I began doing this technique a few weeks ago and it's definitely helped improve the feel of my skin after cleansing.  (check shop.ghanaianemprezz.com for all skin care products)
