VERDICT

July 10th, 2018: OMG, I LOVE this stuff. This has quickly become a must have product for me and I actually like it even better than the La'dor: https://ahnspired.blogspot.com/2016/04/lador.html and Project Beauty: https://ahnspired.blogspot.com/2016/12/project-beauty-haircare.html conditioners...because it lets me be "lazy".

I hate having to spend more time than I need to in the shower, so I LOVE leave in conditioners vs. traditional conditioners that are used in the shower. I'm definitely not much of a take my time and enjoy my shower/bath type of person. I like the idea of it, but in reality all my bubble baths and bath salts and bath bombs just sit there being unused. I'm definitely more of an I shower because I have to to stay clean and want to be in and out as quick as I can type of person, but I digress.

This is referred to as an essence and it says to only apply it to "damaged" areas, but I just use this stuff liberally all over my head as a leave in conditioner and it's totally fine because it's super lightweight...it doesn't weigh down my hair whatsoever, which is awesome and a big part of why I love it so much. I have very fine hair, so often times hair products will weigh it down and/or make my hair look greasy and not that great quickly, so I appreciate the fact that this is so lightweight whilst still giving me all the hydration and moisture that my hair needs.

Not only that, but this super lightweight gel-like cream also leaves my hair feeling super soft and smooth and shiny and healthy looking, so it's a winner all around. It's even got a ton of product in the tube so it lasts for a really long time as well, although if I really really wanted to nit pick...I would appreciate some super cute packaging, but that's only if I were being super nit picky since the packaging isn't ugly or terrible or anything. However, I did just notice that it lists mineral oil in the ingredients and I often hear about how it's not great to have mineral oil in products, so if you are ingredient conscious, FYI...oh, and it also contains ethanol (aka alcohol) as well, so that would be one negative...it's got a couple not so great ingredients in it's formula.

If you don't mind the mineral oil and alcohol though, this definitely gets my stamp of approval and I recommend giving it a try...especially if you're someone like me who has very fine hair and are looking for something that works beautifully without weighing your hair down.

VERDICT

July 3rd, 2018: I love this body lotion...which is rare. I normally hate using body lotions because I hate that lotion-y feeling, but this one is super lightweight and just sinks right into the skin beautifully and completely, which is why I love it so much. It doesn't feel like you're wearing lotion. There's none of that heaviness or greasiness or oiliness...it doesn't feel like I have anything on my skin, which is exactly how I like my skincare.

Despite being super lightweight though, this is still super moisturizing and it leaves you with beautifully soft, smooth and supple skin. It does have a floral-y perfume like scent, which I don't normally like, but I didn't mind the scent of this one. Would I prefer it not be there? Sure, but it's not a dealbreaker...and while it is noticeable it isn't overpowering and I can't smell it unless I'm holding it up near my nose, so I don't smell it once it's on the body. Also, it's got really pretty packaging, which is always a plus.

This has definitely become my go to body lotion, but I must point out this does contain parabens and fragrance. I'm not an expert when it comes to skincare ingredients, but I know those are things that people can be weary of so, FYI.
