Madre Labs body & hair care. 20% off!

I liked the Madre Labs products that I tested last time and I really liked these too :)  I continue testing and share with you the results.

Madre Labs, Leave-In Conditioner, Tangerine Melody, For All Hair Types

My hair is long, normal, a little confused the hair ends.  This product is non-greasy, has lovely sweet tangerine  scent that stays on my hair for a long time.  It leaves my hair softer and gives a nice, natural sheen without weighing it down. I think if your hair is badly damaged, the  just not nourishing and moisturising enough for your hair.

Madre Labs, Hand Cream with Argan Nut Oil, Unscented

This is a natural cream with no extra emulsifiers or silicones. This is a very creamy, nourishing, a little oily, unscented product. I usually prefer scented hand creams but sometimes unscented feels nicer. It leaves my hands soft but not greasy.  I like to use it at nights. I also use it on my dry knees and elbows.

Shea butter, coconut oil and toner

As you know, I love iherb and order from them quite regularly. I use iherb because they have most of my favorite brands, carry a wide variety of products (yay for 1 stop shopping!!), FREE shipping on orders of $20 or more, and their prices can’t be beat – often 10-40% below retail!! They also ship internationally to over 180 countries(FREE shipping on orders of $40 or more) as well as APO addresses.

Another fun thing about iherb.com is that they always send free samples with your order and that’s not all! You can also choose 1 additional FREE SAMPLE to add to your order – most people don’t know this!!  I like being able to try samples before buying a whole jar of something. There’s nothing worse then spending $20 only to find out you don’t like it or it doesn’t work for you!!

Here is a look at a one of my most recent orders including links for more info and to purchase if you are so inclined.

Now Foods, Shea Butter price: $7.63

Great Shea butter for this price. Works super at deeply moisturize my dry skin, I use it at night after a shower, apply to the elbows, knees, heels.

Jarrow Formulas, Extra Virgin Coconut Oil  price: $11.87  

Using for cooking and for my hair.  Perfect as it is as pure as you can get and without any additives.. I haven't used any essential oils with it yet for massaging purposes but I will soon ...I would highly recommend!

Thayers, Rose Petal Witch Hazel, with Aloe Vera Formula, Alcohol-Free Toner  price: $7.66

I used this toner for the first time last night and again this morning and I have to say I really like it! It has a cool refreshing feeling when applies to the face and, most importantly, it truly does tone and shrink pores. In addition to this, it also cleans out blackheads and gives your skin a soft feel, as well as a healthy glow.

Giovanni Anti-Frizz Hair Serum

Now I'm very busy, but will write about one stuff that I really liked.Incredible shine for hair Giovanni

Giovanni, Frizz Be Gone, Anti-Frizz Hair Serum  $6.45

Brilliant!  I apply it straight after the shower without don't drying my hair,  I use about a pea-sized squeeze and rub it between my palms before applying it to my hair.

It looks great!  Untangles, removes static, makes my long straight hair silky and shiny. As soon as you massage the product into your hair you don't feel it, it's not sticky at all.  It has a very light pleasant fragrance.

For the price, it's well worth trying!

Avalon Organics, Vitamin C Sun Aging Defense, Refreshing Cleansing Gel $7.81

I have oily-combination skin. This foam cleanses well and doesn't leave my face feeling dried out like many other cleansing foams or gels do. Leaves skin clean, fresh and moisturized. It has a very pleasant citrus smell, but not too strong so you get a fresh mood in the morning.

Desert Essence, 100% Pure Jojoba Oil, for Hair, Skin and Scalp $8.26

This is the good vegatible oil. I use this for a lot of things. It's great for using in the face for a boost of moisture, for removing make-up, for conditioning dull and tired hair, and for dry cuticles. It is recommended, and remember - one drop goes a long way! 

Rainbow Research, French Green Clay, Facial Treatment Mask $6.35

It's one ingredient, and is 100% safe and natural, unlike some products containing chemicals. The mask is easy to use, leaves my skin silky. But very dries skin. I think is ideal for very oily skin.

Alba Botanica, Sea Salt Body Scrub $7.81

This scrub smells awesome and scrubs well. It leaves my skin so soft! Just lovely! IHerb.com has the lowest price I have been able to find.

7 products for beauty

My favorite beauty products this month.

Nubian Heritage, African Black Soap Bar $3.27

I have acne-prone skin. It cleans just fine.  After the first using this product I got a clean, glowing skin!  Smells awesome and leaves your skin feeling supple and moisturized.

Crystal Body Deodorant, Crystal Body Deodorant Stick $5.38

This all-natural deodorant, very long-lasting and easy to use.  I have been using this for over a year. Now this crystal salt deodorant works great. Although it does not prevent one from perspiring, it blocks about 90%+ of the body odor when used correctly. And the rock itself lasts a long time. If I had not shattered my first one I would have still been using it lol.

Now Foods, XyliWhite Toothpaste Gel, Fluoride Free, Refreshmint $3.81

It really whitens teeth. Very pleasant taste and good feeling in the mouth.  Teeth feel clean and I haven't had any gum issues. And for the price, you can't beat it! This is a must try!

Queen Helene, The Original Mint Julep Masque $3.84

Mint Julep Masque is the original natural home treatment developed by a dermatologist that helps dry up acne pimples, rinse away blackheads and shrink enlarged pores.  After using mask, skin feel clean, refreshed and smooth.  

Carlson Labs, Norwegian Cod Liver Oil $34.93

I have been taking a teaspoon of this baby twice daily for 6 months. I have not had even one single breakout since then. Previously, hormonal acne bothered me every month, but now they are not. My skin is clean and beautiful thanks to Cod liver oil!

Avalon Organics, Biotin B-Complex Therapy Thickening Shampoo $7.29

My hair is thin and fine, and I tend to have oily skin. My hair definitely feels thicker and I see new growth. I know biotin is supposed to help with hair growth. Smells great, leaves my hair and scalp clean and healthy feeling.

Cococare, 100% Cocoa Butter, The Yellow Stick $1.41

 So handy in the stick form, and smells wonderful.  I use this as a lip balm. I  think that it does a great job at moisterizing my lips. It is great and keeps my sometimes dry lips very supple.

have a nice shopping! :)

Logona Naturkosmetik, Daily Care, Shampoo, Organic Aloe + Verbena price: $9.50  

Pros:  Smells good, well-washed hair. From this came the dandruff shampoo, do notadvise it.

Isvara Organics, Shampoo, Lavender price: $11.96

Pros: Smells good, lathers great & only need to use a small amount. The hair after it soft and shiny, longer stay clean, doesnt give me dandruff.
Cons: A little confusing tips, you must use conditioner.

Isvara Organics, Shampoo, Peppermint Chamomile price: $11.96 

Pros:  This is my favorite!  I love the scent of camomile!   The hair after it soft and shiny, longer stay clean, doesnt give me dandruff.
Cons: A little confusing tips, you must use conditioner.

Mane 'n Tail, Maximum Herbal-Gro price: $4.08

And I just tried to excellent care. This is such a versatile hair care that prevents hair loss, improves appearance, promotes the growth and strengthening, and also actsas a leave-in conditioner. The hair on his gleaming, shining, very much, and alsothickens. Once again - well, very much.
