I'm not a product junkie but....

I want a new product! I'm so confused.
I read great, informative reviews and comments on CN, but at the end of the day, I order NOTHING b/c I can't decide. I'm a mixtress at heart but every now an then you wanna open a new container of something wonderful. I go to Target & stalk the shelves reading ingredients, opening and smelling, go back home to do a product search or YouTube search, go to the product website to see the product somemore, then go back to CN and see another darn product review on the home page....starting the process all over again.

So in my Mental Shopping Cart is:
Qhemet Amla/Olive (out of stock anyway)
Shea Moisture Masque
Darcy's DC
Oyin Handmade
Curls Product line

What i'm searching for that I do not have is a Deep Conditioner and a moisturizing cream or milk. I use Giovanni products and Kimmay's leave-in regularly. Any suggestions? Doesn't even have to be from my list.

I think you should go with Darcy's DC. I've heard nothing but good things about it.

I love Oyin Products, I've tried their honey hemp conditioner, Shine and Define, Whipped Pudding and Greg Juice. I've DC with honey hemp and it's nice. I've just recently tried the Curls Shampoo and it works really well so far. Kinky Curly Knot Today is pretty much my leave in. I could go on and on. I'm not much of a product junkie (anymore) but these are some of the ones I've come across and love.

For moisture I would go with the She Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothine (it's not on the list, but I would swith the masque for the smoothie). The masque was good, when I mixed in some EVOO, but the smoothie has been my staple, CANNOT live without product!

I would go with the Darcy's DC. I have 3 DB products: transitioning cream (could also work as a milk), vanilla styling cream and coiling jelly. They are amazing and full of great ingredients.

I say definitely try the DB DC. I love it. I also love her Cherry Kernal Butter (I may have that wrong). As soon as I get a chance, as in before the week is out I'm probably going to her leave-in or or one of the styling milks.

I also love the Oyin Burnt Sugar Pomade. Great stuff. I'm definitely going to try the Honey Hemp Conditioner. I've heard nothing but good things.

Hello, I would definitely try everything (oops maybe I should not advise since I am the ultimate product junkie..lol) but I digress. You should try the Qhemet when you get a chance. Everything you heard about it, is true ( at least the good things But everyone's hair is different. And enjoy, the trial and error. Blessings

@Jeanlouis,

Which Qhemet product are you using?

OK see, you wrong for that.....I'm only allowing myself a $50 limit......but I think I'm definitely going to try the Qhemet. Thank you for your input!

Renny, I think I read your review on Darcy's which was one of the reasons I was going to try it. Let us know how you like the styling milk. I used Carol's Daughter Hair Milk when I had a TWA and it was decent but my hair is longer and requires more moisture so it doesn't do much for me now. Thanks for your input!

Butter,

Will do. I picked up a sample of Carol's Daughter Lite Hair Milk from Sephora the other day so I'll try that soon. I received a CD giftcard as a gift and I'm trying to decide what to use it for. The PJ in me is itching to spend it. Soooooooooo silly. Like I don't have enough stuff in that bathroom.

Renny,
My PJism is horrible with skincare. I do damage at TJMaxx when it comes to soaps, butters, facial creams, body scrubs etc....so I would most likely use that card for her skincare products. IMO her company does a fantastic job with body products.

That honey hemp conditioner sounds yummy. I like products that sound like something you can eat. I'm going to go with Darcy's 1st and next go round when the bug hits I'll try the Honey Hemp. When I run out of the Giovanni DLI that I use with Kimmay's mixture, I am going to try it with the KCKT. Thanks for your input!

Hey Butterfly, I know girl..its ridiculous. But in the end you will feel nice with the purchases homie. I am crazy with the skin care stuff too. And shoes and purses...lol Oh dang..its crazy.


@Renny...Whats up girl..lol..Yes if you remember I had just gotten the alma and olive heavy cream with the hydrating balm thingie...Its the bomb diggitty like taking it back to the early 90's... then I loved it so much the little that i used, I went to NY that weekend and picked up the Burdock Root cream, because I know I would not have to necessarily dampen hair for that like the heavy cream...Renny!!!!!!!!!! Its the TRUTH...for real
Next stop...Black Friday...I need the other things Qhem has. The gel, the Egyptian cleanser, the detangler ghee thing, and whatever else..U feel me?

@Jean - bomb diggity. Girl, that is so funny. We can't help but go back to the common joint.

I'm definitely hitting up Qhemets on Black Friday.

I DO NOT need to discover anything else for skincare. I'm PJ in that area too. I have enough shower gel and lotions to keep me smelling good for five years. It's ridiculous.
