I received 5 products from African Naturalistas ( a Nigerian Company) and I intend to tell you all about them! As some of you may know my hair is natural ( for over a year) now and in that time I have been dodging carrying the hair out because I didn't know the right products to use and my hair was always like short ayamatanga. I've been purchasing some products with reluctance but when I got these one's for free...I leaped for joy! #awooftins.
Ok, so African Naturalistas have a fantastic blog where thy discuss everything related to natural hair and they have a store where you can purchase natural hair products. The products are suitable for those with natural hair, and also those with relaxed hair that want to reduce the chemicals they use on their hair. You can purchase their products by calling 0706 114 1501 Or send an email to orders@africanaturalistas.com. Visit African Naturalistas Blog HERE, and visit African Naturalistas Store HERE
Moisturizing Butter Cream
Noooo! I didn't recieve all three, what I received was the Sweetie Rosie Moisturising Butter Cream...doesn't that sound yummy? The sweetie Rosie is especially great for Dandruff and Itchy scalp, but I didn't have dandruff so I didn't notice if it had any effect but my scalp gets a bit itchy, and it reduces by the day. This is my favourite product because I use it everyday to keep my hair moisturised.
Ingredients
Deep Contitioning Mayonaise
Aqueous (Water, Aqua Purificada, Purified) , Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Cetyl Alcohol, Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Glycerine, Cetearyl Alcohol, Ceteareth 30, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Oil, Vitamin E, Euxyl, Fragrance
Moisturizing and Detangling Conditioner
I would say I used this particular product about 3 times, because that's the number of times I have washed and conditioned my hair in the past 3 - 4 weeks. Is that good or bad? I like that most of their products are moisturising and it helps protect from damage and breakage. It leaves my hair softer after every application. I love soft hair because it's easier to style and detangle.
Ingredients
Aqueous (Water, Aqua Purificada, Purified), Cetyl Alcohol, Glycerol Monostearate, Centrimonium chloride, Polyquartenium 7, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Glycerine, Urtica Diotica (Stinging Nettle), Guar Gum, Euxyl, Fragrance
Black Moisturizing Natural Shampoo
You would expect to see black as in Dudu Osun black colour but it isn't that black, as you can see through the bottle. It's a nice rich moisturizing shampoo, I have used products that dried my hair like iron sponge after shampooing but this was different, it was quite moisturizing. It contains no sulpahtes, and what do sulphates do? They cause hair to dry out.
Ingredients
Aqueous (Water, Aqua Purificada, Purified), Cocamidropropyl Betaine, Honey, Aloe barbadensis (Aloe Vera), Camwood, Cetyl Alcohol, Glycerine, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Milk, Glycerol Monostearate, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Elaeis guineensis (Palm) kernel Oil, Ash, Euxyl, Fragrance
Leave In Conditoner
The is my next favourite product, I've only just realised the purpose of leave-in conditoners after I used this product, after using it, my hair remained soft for a while and it was super duper easy to style. What's your favourite Leave-In Conditioner?
Ingredients
Aqueous (Water, Aqua Purificada, Purified), Glycerine, Cetyl Alcohol, Centrimonium chloride, Glycerol Monostearate, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Aloe barbadensis (Aloe Vera), Vitamin E, Urtica Diotica (Stinging Nettle), Guar Gum, Euxyl, Fragrance
Deep Contitioning Mayonaise
The first time I used this product I committed a blunder. You're meant to apply it on your hair, leave for a few minutes then wash off, instead, I applied it like hair cream and took it out all day!!! That's right...I didn't read the instructions! LOL. This refreshes your hair and adds that much needed shine to dull looking hair.
