NEW Lottabody Natural Hair Products!!!!!

Moisturize Me Curl&Style Milk

Shape Me Custard Gelee

I have always heard great things about Lottabody products. I remember my mother using the Lottabody setting lotion on my hair in middle school. I use to rock a roller set faithfully lol. My mother has been a long time user and fan of Lotta Body products. To this day Lottabody is one of favorite brands to use. When I came across the natural hair display of new products by Lottabody I knew I had to try them. The first thing that drew me to this new arsenal of products was the packaging, the pretty decent ingredients, the price and of course the smell. Can you say YUM :) At first glance I knew that the Moisturize Me Curl&Style Milk would be my favorite product to use. So along with the curl&style milk I ended up picking up the Shape Me Custard Gelee and the Control Me Edge Control. I've been working on how to use these products on my type 4 hair for the past few weeks and here is my break down. 

Moisturize Me Curl&Style Milk:

I knew this product would be a good product on my hair. See the way my hair is set up.... It's really really thick type 4 hair. It has a personality of it's own and doesn't play nice with all products. Normally I'm pretty good at selecting products that work well on my hair. When I started using this product I washed and condition my hair and applied it in section as directed on the bottle. Normally I use a leave-in conditioner before a style product but I wanted to see how well this product worked as directed. I simply two strand twist in some what chunky twist. I took down my hair the next morning and I got a very light definition. My hair was soft and full. Unfortunately, it rained cats and dogs so my hair went into moisture absorb over load My hair just fluffed into a super fro. Which is my go to look any way. Over all it was very easy to use. I LOVE the pump on the bottle!!!! It's something different and most natural hair products don't come with a pump. I love the consistency, the smell and how smooth it went on to my hair. I can see myself buying this product again. 

Shape Me Up Custard Gelee:

I have had my battles with finding a curling custard that works for my hair. This one I'm still working with. I used quite a few times so far. I've used it in a twist out and gave very light definition. I tried it styling my hair in a wash and go it didn't work for my hair. This custard is too light for my hair. One problem I came across it has glycerin like most custards. The thing with glycerin and my hair is if a product has too much glycerin it flakes and and becomes coated or hard. I did get some flaking when trying to use the curl&style milk with this custard MAJOR NO NO. I did get some curl but not what I was use to using my normal styling product. Over all I am still working with this product to see how I can get it to work. I aways find out how to use a product. This one is still a work in progress on my hair. 

Control Me Edge Control:

Now I'm not big on edge controls. I've went through my fair share of them. Some good some very bad, but this one was refreshing to use. It's very light on my hair which is good in my case. I don't like a lot of product on my hair line. This product is is very light once applied. I only used a little bit of this on my edges and it was easy to use. It wasn't really sticky or gummy like most EC'S on the market. Of course the smell was great. It gave a nice hold. Not the strongest hold but that was fine with me. no flaking, no residue, no white cast (since this has a blue color base). This is very light on the hair. Not bad it's definitely a product to keep on hand if your like me and don't care for the heavy, sticky, oily edge controls. This product does contain parabens but they are listed at the bottom, but I'm not major on ingredients so it's fine with me. 

Overview 

I like the line. It has a few downs i.e. a little too light at times and the glycerin factor on my hair. I definitely see a co wash, deep conditioner and leave in conditioner being added to this line some where down the line. I have to work out the kinks with the custard. Over all a good line of products so far. I HIGHLY recommend the Moisturize Me Curl&Style Milk that is my favorite out of all the products I've tried. There are two more revamped products I haven't tired from Lottabody that I will check out later. Lottabody did a good job on the new products.  I'm looking forward to see what the company does next.

NEW Creme Of Nature Moisturising Milk Masque (Repairing Treatment)

Cream of Nature Moisturising Milk Masque Price $7.99

So Creme of Nature Agran Oil from Morocco hair line has  NEW natural hair products. They have added 4 new products and I've bought and tried 2 out of 4 of them. The Moisturizing Milk Masque and the Twirling Custard. I've been eyeing this product for almost a month before I finally tried it. For some reason my product junkieism is starting to fade out lately. $7.99 for a deep conditioner was all of a sudden too pricey for me, which is unheard of in my product life. So I finally tried it this past Saturday. I really like it this treatment. I've been a fan of the argan oil line from Creme of Nature for a couple of years now and I must say I'm really liking the new products so far. When using this product I followed my normal shampoo cleansing routine and skipped the regular conditioner step. I applied this treatment on wet clean hair in chunky sections. I simply finger detangled the product in my hair, then chunky twist my hair. I must say the texture was really nice, very thick and creamy. I didn't have to saturate my hair like I normally have to with most conditioners. This is a nice size jar and I love that I can maybe get at least 2-3 uses out of it before having to restock. I have thick type 4 hair so I normally have to let DC's stay in my hair at least an 30 with heat or an hour+ without heat with a plastic cap.  I opted out the heat and just put on a \plastic cap and head scarf and called it a night. I left this treatment in Saturday night and rinsed it out Monday morning. My hair was really soft and felt very smooth and condition. My hair felt like butter which is a plus in my book. Dealing with work, home life, and school had me playing catch up and I just let this product go to work. It states to leave it in 5-10 minute but my hair rebels against rules like those. Over all I like the new treatment its rich and thick smells really nice. The price doesn't botherme now lol. It's a good product it's worth a try. They did a good job on this product formulation. I'm looking forward to trying the Butter Creme and Curl Perfecting Pudding later on down the line.
