I've always been a huge advocate for prepooing, which is just a "Natural Hair Term" for Pre-Shampooing. Pre-Shampooing/Prepoo (for short) is just using a cheap conditioner and/or oils to pre-condition your hair to help protect it from shampoos. Shampoo strips our hair from its natural sebum(oils) that our scalp produces. Which can make our hair become dry, brittle, and cause breakage. That's why we deep condition after we use shampoo, well, some of us do. I know that it's a must for me. Before I came across this amazing Prepoo For Hair, I just always used a cheap conditioner and an oil such as, Almond Oil, Castor Oil, Olive Oil, or just any oil I have in my hair cabinet. I love that this product is a prepoo in a bottle! You don't have to put 2 or more products together and get all messy, thanks to Prepoo For Hair. This is simple, the directions say to heat the oil in the microwave(I poured it in a small glass bowl to heat it up in) for 10-15 seconds then apply to your hair. I sectioned my hair into 6 twists and applied it starting from my ends, then up to my roots. Lastly, I applied the rest to my scalp. I put a shower cap on my head and let it sit in my hair for 15-30 minutes. I loved how I felt the oil penetrating throughout my hair and scalp. It has a very herbal scent to it that I actually enjoyed. After using this product and shampooing my hair, I can tell that it helped a ton with not letting the shampoo strip my hair of its natural oils. It also helped with loosening knots to help aid in detangling. I would recommend this product to all my fellow naturalistas.

Review: Honey & Hive Bath & Body Co.

I was lucky enough to have a chance to review these products by Honey & Hive Bath & Body Co. This Company handcrafts their products with 100% Natural ingredients. They use quality, raw honey and essential oil based skin care products. Honey is amazing! Not just for your tea, but for your skin and hair! It has been used medicinally for hundreds of years! Honey & Hive Bath & Body Co. Makes all types of products! From lip balm, to Face Lotions, and even face toners! They sent me their

. Lavanilla Lip Balm

. Their Grapefruit & Bergamont Body Butter

. As well as their Grapefruit & Lime Whipped Body Butter

All 3 of these products smell amazing! Let's get into the review. 

The Lip Balm- $4.00

Ingredients: Organic Lavanilla Lip Balm is made with beeswax, organic coconut oil, organic Shea butter, raw honey, organic vitamin E oil, lavender essential oil, vanilla essential oil, organic vanilla absolute.

I loved this Lip Balm! I can probably say I loved it so much that I overused it lol. There should be no reason as to why I don't still have anymore of this lip balm left. You honestly only have to apply it 2-3 times a day. That's how moisturizing it is for your lips. I am not exaggerating! The moisture that this lip balm provides last around 5 hours. I just enjoyed reapplying it throughout the day. It's a plus that it's organic because when using any type of product on your lips, you're ingesting it. When using these lip balms that you buy from any Rite Aid, Ulta, Walmart, CVS or what have you, has horrible ingredients in them that can harm you. This Lip Balm is affordable and you can use it as much as you want to without it harming you. Just don't use it as much as I did if you want it to last lol. 

Grapefruit & Lime Whipped Body Scrub $15.00

Ingredients:
*Raw Sugar, *Avacado Oil, *Apricot Oil, *Fractionated Coconut Oil, 
Beeswax, *Shea Butter, Emulsifying Wax, Cetyl Alcohol, Stearic
Acid, *Vitamin E Oil, Raw Honey, Paraben Free Preservative, Lime Essential Oil, Grapefruit Essential Oil

*Organic ingredient 

Paraben Free
Formaldehyde Donor Free

This Body Scrub was unbelievable! Not only did it smell amazing, but it also left my skin feeling soooo soft. I have a tendency of overusing things, but you can't do that with body scrubs. You only need to use it no more than once a week. It has amazing benefits, but too much use can irritate your skin. Also make sure that you wet your face or skin before using any body scrub or else you can hurt yourself. Now, don't get me wrong, this scrub is very gentle and helped with my oily skin just as it said on their website which I will leave down below under this review. Another thing that the description on their site said it will do is energize you're skin after use. Which is amazing when your trying to wake up in the morning. The Grapefruit & Lime help do that, as well as having other amazing benefits. Take some time to look them up. I used this body scrub on my face and lips as well. After using it on my lips, I applied the Lavanilla Lip Balm. It was perfect! My lips loved using this combo together. I'm glad that I still have a few uses out of this product because I enjoyed it a ton. 

The Honey & Bergamont Body Butter $15.00

Ingredients: Organic Body Butter is made with Oat infused water, *rose hydrosol, *aloe vera gel, *apricot seed oil, *fractionated coconut oil, *rosehip seed oil, *sunflower oil, *mango butter, *vegetable glycerin, emulsifying wax, raw honey, beeswax, *bergamot essential oil, grapefruit essential oil, *calendula extract, *rosemary leaf extract, paraben free preservative. 

This Body Butter went pairs perfectly with the Grapefruit & Lime Whipped Body Scrub! It's made with infused oat water, which leaves you with soft silky skin all year long. This Butter has got to be one of my all time favs. A little goes a long way so I don't have to worry about overusing this baby either lol. I accidentally used it as a lip balm and still use it as one today lol. Being that it's made with Organic ingredients and free of harsh additives, you can use it as a lip balm with no worries. My hands loved this product. I also use it on my nail cuticles to moisturize them and help keep them strong. I love products that have multiple purposes! 

I want to thank Honey & Hive Bath & Body Co. For sending over these amazingggg products for me to review for you guys. If you are interested in purchasing these or any of Honey & Hive Bath & Body products, visit their website at, esty.com/shop/HoneyHiveBathCo

Review: Thirteen Organics

The Owner of Thirteen Organics sent over their Coffee Scrub Cubes and Blacksoap & Cane Sugar Facial Scrub for me to review. Don't these two products just look amazing?! When I opened up the package, I almost died when I saw them because my skin deff needed the love that I was sure they could give it. I'm not sure if you guys have heard or read the benefits that Coffee Scrub and Black Soap has for your skin. 

Coffee scrub exfoliates, has  inflammatory properties, reduces eye puffiness, improves circulation, temporary reduction of cellulite, helps with varicose veins, psoriasis, smooths skin and so much more. 

Black Soap can prevent the skin from aging, improves skin tone, fades skin discolorations, helps to heal problem skin, helps skin irritations & skin inflammation, deep cleanses, & can be an exfoliant because of the ashes in it. 

My Review 

Coffee Scrub Cubes

Ingredients:

*ground coffee beans, dead sea salt, *saccharum officinarum, *cocos nucifera (coconut) oil,*helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil, *ricinus communis (castor) seed oil, kaolin and (illite) red clay, citrus grandis seed extract

*all ingredients organic

I loved this Coffee scrub! This was my first time using a coffee scrub. I've heard so many great things about them and was very interested in trying it so when I was sent this to review for you guys I was so excited. My skin benefited from it extremely. It left it feeling very smooth and hydrated. I use this scrub once a week to help with my problem areas and it also made my skin glow. It's not too harsh and I feel like this can be a staple for me. A little goes a long way. I love how different the coffee scrub is being that it is in cubes. I had to get used to using it in the beginning, but it was easy to get used to. I actually found it kind of fun. I used this product for my face and body, but mainly for my body. When I used this for my face, it helped with the puffiness under my eyes in the morning. 

The Blacksoap and Cane Sugar Facial Scrub

Ingredients: african blacksoap, *saccharum officinarum, aloe barbadensis, moroccan lava clay, fine pumice, activated charcoal, lactobacillus/pumpkin fruit ferment filtrate, *ricinus communis (castor) seed oil, citrus grandis seed extract

*all ingredients organic

This facial scrub was everything! I love Black Soap so having a facial scrub with it as the main ingredient is a plus. It deep cleansed my skin without leaving it dry like most Blacksoap does. I have oily skin on my forehead, nose, and chin and it helped with that and my blackheads as well. This product is very beneficial to those that have acne prone, and oily skin. Anyone can use it, but especially those who have serious skin issues will enjoy this product. I did not use these two products together. I used this product for my face only.

Review: Tender Organics

Hey Guys, I'm on a ball with these reviews. I'm happy to be back after all the stressfull events going on in my life.

The Owner of Tender Organics was sweet enough to send over two of their products, The Oatmeal Milk & Honey Cleansing Bar, and The Natural Cocoa, Cocoa Butter Stick. Tender Organics Products are created with natural ingredients and are 100% safe. 

Oatmeal Milk & Honey Cleansing Bar

Ingredients: Sodium Cocoate (From saponified oils) Cocos Nucifera Oil (Coconut oil), Elaeis Guineensis Oil (Palm oil), Water, Glycerin, Butryospermum parkii) Shea butter, Mangifera Indica (Mango) Seed Butter, Theobroma cacao (Cocoa Butter), Avena Sativa (Oats), Stearic Acid (Naturally Derived),  Micas (Color), Fragrance.

This Soap Bar is handcrafted with Shea, Mango, Cocoa Butter, and Whole Grain Oats to aid in exfoliating.

I could not get enough of this Exfoliating Soap Bar. It smells soooo good and I love the way it makes my skin feel. It left my skin feeling unbelievably soft and feeling like new. I love how the soap is soft on one side and the other side is the exfoliating side. It doesn't hurt that the soap is pretty to look at. It is perfect for sensitive skin and I speak from experience. I love soaps that I can use on my face as well as on my body. It's very gentle and a little goes a long way. 

The Cocoa Butter Stick (Natural Cocoa)

Ingredients: Organic Theobroma Cacao Seed Butter (Cocoa Butter), Organic Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Almond Oil), Cera Alba (Beeswax), Organic Coco Nucifera Oil (Coconut Oil), Alpha-tocopherol (Vitamin E). 

I loved how healing this Cocoa Butter stick was. I tend to wash my hands a lot and using this soothes the skin on my hands after I wash them. The scent was okay. I'm not too fond of chocolate scented things, but this wasn't overbearing and it doesn't linger for long. I applied this on my face as well and I could of swore it made my skin glow each time. Another thing I used this for was moisturizing my cuticles. It's perfect for that. A little goes a long way with this product as well. 

I really enjoyed both products and want to thank Tender Organics for sending me these products to review for you guys. If you are interested in purchasing products from Tender Organics, visit their website at, Tenderorganics.com

Review: BUTTERUp Body

I adore Simple Beautiful Packaging. BUTTERUp Body sent me Their Lavender Scented Shea Butter Soufflé and Their Shea Butter, Butter Kisses Lip Balm. Their products are Handmade, Vegan, and Cruelty Free. 

The Shea Butter Soufflé

Ingredients: butyrospermum parkii (Shea Butter), avocado butter, vanilla infused jojoba oil, essential oil blend

It can be used for both your hair and body. I had a great experience with this butter. It helped to retain moisture for both my hair and body. I used it in my hair for the LOC Method (Liquid, Oil, Cream). I love using butters in my hair because they lock in the moisture from water and your hair products so that your hair stays moisturized longer. As for my body, I used it right after I got out the shower while my skin was still wet to lock in the moisture from the water. My hair and skin felt extremely soft after using this amazing Butter. It smelled good and it's worked great! A two for one. You can't beat that. 

The Shea Butter Butter Kisses Lip Butter

Ingredients: Sweet Almond Oil, Carnauba Wax, Cocoa Butter, Coconut Oil, Butyrospermum parkii (Shea Butter), Tangerine Essential Oil, and Lemon Essential Oil.

This Lip Butter literally left my lips feeling like butter. They were very very soft, smooth, hydrated, and supple. The moisture that you get from this Lip Balm last at least 4 hours. A+ in my book. I don't wear lipstick much, but for those who wear those drying lip stains, this is the perfect lip balm for you to use as a base or after you scrub your lip stain off and your lips feel irritated. 

Thanks BUTTERUp Body!

Review: Bodhi Tree Naturals

Such Beautiful Packaging. So simple yet still so cute and girly. Reka, The Owner of Bodhi Tree Naturals sent these products over for me to review. She was experiencing certain health issues which gave her the idea of formulating her own products that are made without harmful Ingredients. Reka sent me (starting from top left) 

.The Raw Honey Face Moisturizer with SPF 30

.The Young Skin Rose Face Moisturizer with Vitamin C + Black Seed Oil

.A Lavender Lip Balm

.A Lavender Deodorant

.The Blackhead Eliminating Vinegar Facial Scrub

.The Collagen + Vitamin C Face Moisturizer.  

I received 3 Moisturizers and they all worked extremely well. They smelled great and they moisturized my face without leaving it feeling tight, dry, raw, and burning like most store bought, facial moisturizers that aren't made with 100% natural ingredients do. I noticed an amazing difference in my skin after using these moisturizers. My skin tone looked more evened out, my eyes weren't as puffy in the morning, my face was always smooth, I didn't experience any redness or irritation, and the overall health of my skin changed for the better. 

The Lavender Lip Balm is one of my favorite Lip Balms. I keep it in my purse at all times. It moisturizes my lips so well, that I only have to apply it twice a day! That's astonishing! I am already half way through it and I swear this Lip Balm has changed the health of the skin on my lips for the better. 

The Lavender Deodorant leaves my underarms feeling so smooth, soft and hydrated. This deodorant has an herbal scent to it which I love. I also love that this deodorant isn't made with any harmful ingredients. There aren't many deodorants out there that are made with  100% natural ingredients. 

The Blackhead Eliminating Vinegar Facial Scrub is One of the best Face Scrubs I have ever used! It has some of the most amazing ingredients that have extreme benefits for our skin. Such as Indian Clay, and Apple Cider Vinegar just to name a few. This Scrub definitely did the job of getting rid of blackheads and getting rid of all the dead skin. It left my face feeling The best it has felt in a long time. I'm going to keep this Face Scrub very near and dear to my heart.

I want to Thank Reka from Bodhi Tree Naturals for giving me the opportunity to review her products. My skin truly loved them!

Review: Honey Pot Fresh Fem Wash

(In loveeeee with their slogan! )

Honey Pot Fresh Sent Over Two (Normal and Moisture) of their Fem Washes for me to review. 

Honey Pots Fem Washes are enriched with Plant Based Ingredients. They help to balance your pH, support the natural acidity, and it helps to prevent infection from bacteria and yeast. 

I don't have any issues with moisture down there, but I used both The one for Moisture and The Normal One. They both worked great leaving me feeling very fresh and cleansed. I also love how great it smells. It has a foam consistency and it is very convenient to use. 

Being that Honey Pot Fresh is not formulated with harsh chemicals, you don't have to worry about irritation, dryness, infections, unbalanced pH, basically none of the problems that you experience when using soaps that aren't made with natural ingredients. I really recommend this Fem Wash to all Women. Thanks Honey Pot Fresh!

Review: Bright Eyes Bath-n-Body

The owner of Bright Eyes Bath-n-Body sent over all of these babies for me to review. Now you know, us women loveeee our body products. I feel spoiled. Thanks Bright Eyes Bath-n-Body! Now, let's get into the review.

I was sent...

.The Citrus Mint Lotion Stick

.The Black Raspberry Vanilla Body Butter

.The Wild Orange and Honey Sugar Scrub

.The Apple Mint Jasmine Sugar Scrub

.Bliss Bath Salts

.Unsented Hand and Body Lotion

All of these products smelled delightful minus the Unsented Hand and Body Lotion for obvious reasons. 

The Citrus Mint (Peppermint Crème, Lemon Mint, Orange Mint)

Ingredients: butter, cocoa butter, beeswax, apricot kernel oil, grape seed oil, avocado oil, arrowroot powder, Vitamin E, fragrance

This Lotion Stick was amazing! 

It was so moisturizing and fits perfectly inside my purse. I love the citrus scent and the convenience of it. The ingredients are great and they help to nourish and protect your skin. 

The Black Raspberry Vanilla Body Butter 

Ingredients: Distilled water, shea butter, grape seed oil, apricot kernel oil, conditioning emulsifier, arrowroot powder, stearic acid, vegetable glycerin, Optiphen Plus (preservative), Vitamin E, fragrance

I am so in love with the scent of this Body Butter. It certainly smells good enough to eat! It leaves my skin feeling so silky smooth. The moisture that this butter gives me last an entire day. I've received many compliments saying that they love my perfume and asking me what I'm wearing. I really adore this product.  

The Wild Orange and Honey Sugar Scrub

Ingredients: Sugar, sweet almond oil, rice bran oil, coconut oil, grape seed oil, conditioning emulsifier, stearic acid, beeswax, fragrance oil, liquid germal plus (preservative), mica (color)

This right hereeeee..smells like freaking candy! No, now that I'm typing this review I know exactly what it smells like, those Cream Sickle Ice Cream Bars! Yep, that's just what it smells like. Using this brought me back to when I was a child. I love this exfoliant! I applied it once a week to get rid of the dry, rough, dead skin on my face and body. It refreshed and cleansed my skin, leaving it invigorated, soft, and deeply cleansed. Make sure to wet your face and body first before use or else you will hurt yourself. I simply use it in the shower to make things easier.

The Apple Mint Jasmine Sugar Scrub

Ingredients: Sugar, sweet almond oil, rice bran oil, coconut oil, grape seed oil, conditioning emulsifier, stearic acid, beeswax, fragrance oil, liquid germal plus (preservative), mica (color) 

This Body Scrub had by far the best scent I've ever smelled! It was so captivating that I caught myself sniffing it even when I wasn't applying it. I'm so upset that I'm nearly done with it. It worked just as well as the Wild Orange and Honey Sugar Scrub if not better. 

The Bliss Bath Salts 

Ingredients: Dead sea salt, Epsom salt, grape seed oil, essential oils of jasmine, neroli, and roses; Vitamin E oil, fragrance, mica

I so loved soaking my body in the water filled with these bath salts. They smelled amazing and helped me to relax and cool off my nerves. I almost fell asleep because I was so relaxed. It helped alleviate stress from my body and it also helped my aching bones after a long active day. I recommend these Bath Salts to those who desire to relax and unwind after a long, tiring day, or just to relieve some stress.

The Unscented Hand and Body Lotion

Ingredients: Distilled water, apricot kernel oil, grape seed oil, avocado oil, conditioning emulsifier, vegetable glycerin, germal plus (preservative)

This Lotion left my skin feeling very hydrated and soft. I hate when I use lotions that leave my skin feeling greasy, but this lotion didn't do that. I also enjoyed that it is Unscented because sometimes I go around family members that are sensitive to strong scents or I may have a bad headache and I don't want to smell anything strong that may make it worse.

I want to Thank The Owner of Bright Eyes Bath -n- Body for sending me these products to review. I really enjoyed them and loved how amazing they smelled. If you are interested in Purchasing anything from this company, please visit Brighteyesbath-n-body.com
