African Pride Olive Miracle Collection 1024x512 Product Review: African Prides Olive Miracle Line

I got a fab product in the mail and I wanted to share it with you guys! First off, it has been crappy outside and I do no have a relaxer. I was in between salon visits and my hair was looking a hot mess. I remembered African Pride sent me a box of goodies to try and I quickly got to work. I am the type of girl that stays at the salon because I have a lot of hair and it’s tiresome for me.

It was a rainy night so I decided to stay in and do my own hair,clinching pearls lol. The Olive Miracle Line they gave me included the Moisture Lotion, Leave in Conditioners, Sheen Spray, Anti-Breakage Formula, Growth Oil, 2 in 1 Shampoo and Conditioner and 2 boxes of Relaxer. I loved the packaging and while reading, I knew this was going to be great for my hair because its winter time and with that comes dryness and breakage.

I first started off washing my hair. When I used a dime size of the 2 in 1 shampoo and conditioner my hair lathered up on the first try. Usually it takes my thick hair 2 washings to get it to lather up but this shampoo was rich in lather and it smelled divine!

I washed my hair twice then put in the leave in conditioner. I combed that through then braided my hair to the back.I wanted a natural curly look till I could get to the beauty salon plus my hubby loves my hair wild and curly lol. I let that dry till the next morning and then took the braids out.I used the Anti-breakage formula on my scalp, and ran the growth oil through my hair. At the end my hair came out kinda cute.

I would like to thank African Pride for sending the product to me, I love it and will be trying on my daughter too. She helped me a lot lol. Oh guys, go to African Pride’s Facebook Page and “like” it because they’ll be giving away the whole product line three times weekly for the next five weeks! Also March 16th, they will kick off the My Pride, My Way campaign. You can follow African Pride on twitter too @myafricanpride.

dsc02360 300x225 Carols Daughter new store in Atlanta!

Carols Daughter at Lenox Mall

I got word that Carol’s Daughter was opening in Lenox Mall and I had to stop in to see it! I love a women doing great things and I am so proud of Lisa Price for living out her dream! This is her 9th store and I had no clue that she had that many! I remember always stopping into Sephora to buy her products and now she has her own stores. I love it!

I was greeted by sales manager Antoinette who showed me around the store. She said they had something for everyone. The beautiful store was sectioned off for hands and feet,fragrance,skincare,men,bath and body and hair. They even do demos to show you how to use certain products. I loved that! Vivian, a customer getting demo on her hair said, she had mixed some wrong combinations of hair products,so she ran into Carol’s Daughter to let them show her how to use things.

Beauty products at Carols Daughter

I’ve seen lots of celebs vouch for Carol’s Daughter products like Jennifer Hudson,Jada Pinkett Smith and a host of others. Ive also seen products  featured in Essence,and O Magazine.

I also thought it was cool that on the employees name tags were their moms names. Antoinettes read,Juanita’s daughter, awh that adds such a unique touch. Antoinette mentioned that the “Hair Milk” was the top selling product and was named Best of Sephora’s 2008 “Best Natural Product”. Wow thats a great news! Please stop in and check them out if your in the Atlanta area, the store is so pretty and located on the first level across from Crate and Barrell at Lenox Mall.
