Yup, I'm loving it...

Another item that I really like from Chagrin Valley is their lip butter. I purchased the Honey Butter lipbutter and the Mocha Java lipbutter, and man o man, those things leave my lips soooo soft and moisturized!

On another note, my cousin has officially named me her "Henna Hairdresser."
LOL, isnt that great? I already ordered 300g of Yemen henna for her. I can't wait to get my hands on it, lol.

So soft, sooo soft

Man my hair feels like cotton! Today I used my Chagrin Valley sample poo bars and my Karen's BB herbal hair conditioner.

And boy o boy my hair is soft like cotton! Now, I didn't care for the Honey Beer Egg poo bar nor the Babassu & Marsh Mallow poo bar that I tested on my hair today. I swear, the ONLY poo bar that comes close to my beloved Coconut poo bar is the Mud and Clay poo bar.

Now Karen's Body Beautiful herbal conditioner is the friggin truth! Slip like a mutha, smells amazing, and leaves my hair as smooth as a baby bottom!

I love my hair!

I really wanted to like you

I really wanted to love you, I mean look how pretty your bar is? and the smell is AMAZING!But alas, it does NOTHING for my skin, NOTHING. Doesn't lather enough(could be my hard water), but overall, I wasn't overly impressed with it.

Sad to say I am going to have to rate this bar 7 out of 10, would have been 5 but I love the smell.

This is going to go in the bottom of the pile *le sigh*

Let me count the ways.....

Ohhh so my beloved Coconut Milk shampoo bar has some SERIOUS competition. Chagrin's Mud and Clay poo bar is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! Holy cow it left my hair so soft and my scalp so squeaky clean, I LOVE IT! I am definitely going to have to stock pile the coconut bar and the mud & clay bar as well.




I give this amazing bar 10 out of 10.

Three for one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hola, so far I'm slowly making my way through my sample Chagrin Valley poo bars and body bars. So I decided to review the bars that stood out the most for me.

One of my favorite bars so far is the *drum roll please*



Goatmilk Oatmeal Soap: I LOVE this soap, I loved it so much that I ordered a full size bar of it. I can not describe how SOFT this made my skin. It is extremely moisturizing and it exfoliates my skin gently. The oatmeal pieces does a great job of getting rid of the flakes and the goatmilk is one of the most finest moisturizing agents out there. I give this amazing bar 10 out of 10.

The next bar that I love is the Lavender & Rosemary soap:

I really like this bar, I don't love it, but I damn sure like it alot! This left my skin really soft and supple, which I like. The smell is not overpowering which is a plus because some Lavender products are really overpowering. I really adore this soap, it almost matches up to the Goatmilk Honey Oatmeal soap, so I give this bar an 8 out of 10.


Now onto shampoo bars:

Coconut Shampoo bar:


This bar has everything, a light scent, lathers up nicely, and it leaves my hair so soft that I don't even need to use conditioner afterwards. If I could marry this poo bar I would. I LOVE this bar so much that I purchased two full size bars. There no way in heck that I am going to allow anyone to use this bar, lol. I love it that much. I give this poo bar 10 out 10, heck I would rate it 11 out of 10 if I could, lol.

Till next time!

In the spotlight....

"Chagrin Valley Lavender Oatmeal Spice soap"



I really like this body soap. It's very moisturizing and refreshing, and the smell? DIVINE!!!!The only downside is the oatmeal grains. They are extremely harsh on my skin, even after I lather several times. So out of 10, I give this soap a 5. I'll probably give it to my mom.

I will post my review of the Goat Milk and Oatmeal soap tomorrow.

See ya!

Love

Chagrin Valley Goat Milk Oatmeal and Honey bar soap, oh my heavens, I LOVE IT

My skin feels fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nappiness Leads to Happiness!

HA!

This morning I went to the post office to pick up my soaps and oh my heavens my box smells sooooooo good! I can't wait to wash day to use them!

I think my first choice is going to be the coconut shampoo bar, yippee!

I know I said that I wasn't going to order anymore stuff, but I think I am going to order 500g of yemen henna because I'm itching to do another henna treatement, lol.

Mehandiskinart.com prices are way cheaper than hennaforhair.com, like 9 dollars cheaper with cheaper shipping.

Can't wait to try that out!

I think my final purchases for the next month are going to be my henna and Chagrin Valley soaps.

I promise!

I.Can't.help.myself

*le sigh*



So as you know I adore Giovanni 50:50 shampoo, but, it strips my hair because its a clarifying shampoo.



Now as much as I like it, I don't love it. So I'm on the look out for something with more oomph, something that makes my hair extra soft.



And I think I found it!



First off, I really need to stay out of np.com commercial products threads, its getting me in so much trouble lmao, anyway, just out of curiosity I checked out the Chagrin valley shampoo bars by Ida thread and what do you know, it was a "We love Ida shampoo bars!!!!" rave.



Well, I just had to see what everyone was talking about, so I hopped over to Ida's homemade soaps website and my heavens there were so many things to choose from! I mean she has shampoo bars, body soap bars, lotion bars, bath melts, dog shampoo, lip balms, the works, and its all homemade!



I can tell you right now, I was like a girl in a soccer stadium full of hot Italian men, I was in love. I ordered sample bars of almost all her stuff. What makes this great is that her sample bars cost under 3 dollars and from all the reviews they last a really long time. I already have a wish list of all the soaps that I can't wait to get my hands on as soon as they are available.



I am particualry itching to try her coconut milk shampoo bar, something tells me I am going to LOVE it.
