Since it has been a little colder in my neck of the woods, my skin has gotten drier in the process. My skin is rough, and in certain areas, cracked. I was grateful to receive for review a Plum Hill Winter Vanilla Sugar Scrub. I …
I have seven products from Nubian Heritage to review: Coconut & Papaya Soap, Carrot & Pomegranate Soap, Indian Hemp & Haitian Vetiver Soap, Coconut & Papaya Body Wash, Coconut & Papaya Body Lotion, Raw Shea Butter Body Lotion and Indian Hemp & Haitian Vetiver Body …
I received some organic, raw, unrefined shea butter from the Organic Shea Butter Company for review. I was so excited to get it! I’ve had products (shampoo, unfortunately processed) that have included shea butter. I did notice that the shea butter improved the product. Seeing that, it made me wonder what benefits the real natural shea butter would give me. I couldn’t wait to try it!
I was sent a 4 oz. jar of the raw, unrefined, organic shea butter. It smells great and is so smooth. I love the moisturized feeling it gives to my skin, not greasy at all like some lotions. Organic Shea Butter is 100% organic, all natural, chemical free. It has not been refined, bleached, or altered. There are no additives or parabens.
I first used it after a shower. It’s good to use from head to toe. I put it all over my arms and legs. My skin was noticeably softer even after several hours. I even used it as an aftershave from shaving my legs. It calmed down those ugly red bumps and they’re not itchy or irritated. It also recovered my very dry, rough feet.
I also used it on my hair after I toweldried it. My hair is also much softer. (My hair is usually very dry and coarse on the ends because I use a lot of heat products: straighteners and curlers). Split ends are less noticeable after several days use. Although, I realized that I didn’t need to use very much shea butter. My scalp over compensates in oils to try to keep my dry hair ends moisturized, so my roots can get very oily. So just a little shea butter went a long way!
There are so many uses for pure organic shea butter:
* Dry,rough skin
* Eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis
* Stretch marks, scars, wrinkles
* Razor bumps, blemishes
* Minor burns, sunburn, skin peeling
* Dry hair and scalp, hair breakage
The Organic Shea Butter comes in three convenient sizes, and all at decent prices. There is a 4 oz jar (hands and face use), an 8 oz jar (body and hair use) and a 12 oz jar (family size). I got rid of mine pretty quickly, so I’ll have to get the family size just for myself!

*This Post is Brought to you by Harvey Prince* I love a soft fragrance on a man or a woman. I think we have all walked by or worked with someone that has worn way too much perfume and it either choked us out or, …

I always look forward to the middle of the month when it comes to the mail. I know that my Beauty Box 5 shipment for review is going to show up! I love to see what goodies they have in store for me. These fun shipments always carry a surprise or two and this month is no different.
The Beauty Box 5 is a monthly subscription of 5 small or trial size products. I think it is a fun way to try out new products for a great price and gather some trial and travel sizes for trips and even gifts! I love beauty products of all types so this is a fun idea for me.
This month there are 5 neat items to be found in this beautiful blue box. Here is what is in the Beauty Box 5 for January:
Coastal Scents Eye Shadow – These cute eye shadows are highly pigmented colors with a touch or shine. I love the beautiful colors! They are a teal/mint color, a copper, deep stone gray, and a purply brown raisin – which is more of a matt or base color. Love! I do wish these were a bit bigger, but they are great for a travel bag.
Sally Hansen Salon Effect Polish Strips – These are so fun to wear. Perfect for when you want something flashy and easy! I love that there is no dry time. You just peel and stick and then file to shape the look. Love these!! And they last up to 10 days.
Ultraflesh Gold Standard Mascara – I do have nice lashes and love to enhance them. This mascara rocks and did a great job volumizing and kicking up my lashes. Definitely loving this product!
Softsoap Nutri Serums Body Wash – Oh this was delightful! I love the beautiful scent and this product is thick! Just a bit will go a long way. I have to find this in the store. Keeper!
Garnier Fructis Daily Care Shampoo – This brand is my son’s favorite. We have been using it for several years and it does a wonderful job! I love the small size – perfect for traveling!
Stop by the Beauty Box 5 site to check out this box and all of the products that they offer for sale on the site. You can pick up full sized products in many of the featured items and some trial/travel sized too. Plus you can sign up to get your own box for any amount of shipments. Great gift idea!

During the late Fall and Winter seasons my skin gets terribly dry. I will often find severe dry patches on my elbows, knees and feet. I really hate all of that flaking skin and the itching that goes along with it. Recently I discovered some …
