I Changed My Mind About These Natural Hair + Beauty Products...

Hey y'all, it's Sheree, what's up back with another video, as you can see from the title today, we'll be talking about products that I change my mind about. Honestly. Y'All is an empties video, but I do have some products in here that you know I felt a certain type of way when I first used it and then over time my opinion changed about it, so we're gon na talk about that today, as y'all can see It is head, wrap and oversized jean jacket season. It'S officially fall for me. Okay, it's officially fall because it's it's cold outside and my heat is on. This is how an island girl does fall. I still love my colors in the fall. Like I love fall. I actually thrifted this jean jacket in a recent vlog. If you haven't seen that Vlog, you can definitely check it out, I'm not officially back to thrifting, but y'all know I used to be called my sister closet, so there's always going to be a place in my heart for a good Thrift find, and I washed it And now it's fire anyway y'all, let's get in to this empties, I have natural hair. I have skincare, I have body, I have vitamins helpful, all the things so, let's get into it, I'm in a good mood, I'm in a good mood. The girls in The Insider tea have had me laughing all morning. If you're, not The Insider thesis, the group chat is lit. Okay, the group chat is lit. If you know you know, just join y'all just join join for a month. If you don't love it, I will refund you, but join and just come in just join just amazing anyway, let's get into it. We'Re gon na start with natural hair, because that's what this channel was built on natural hair will always have a place in my heart. We'Re going to go and watch the order, this video will be organized. I like watching organize empties videos, so I like making organized empties videos, so this video is going to be organized everything that I mentioned will be linked down below. If you choose to buy anything based on my recommendation, y'all are you know, y'all already know, click a link and Save a Life purchasing through my links really does support my channel and it keeps keeps the lights on y'all, literally literally. The first product is the yes to tea tree stump relief, scalp treatment. I have this for quite a while, and I finally used it up. It was cool, it was okay, it was like this jelly type of product that was supposed to help with like itching and like scalp conditions. I don't really suffer for any type of scalp conditions and for what it did it wasn't it it won't it. It won't. Live for me, it won't it so, not a repurchase. For me, I have two tea rinses from sorenzo beauty. I have the ashwagandha and black tea hair rinse. This was part of what was the part of the summer collection. I think that's part of the summer collection and it may be still available - I'm not too sure, but they do have their fall collection that you can check out. I do have a coupon code with Sorrento, it's BCL H20. You can save 20 off. They have like a coffee one right now that sounds delicious, but these are the ones that I use and use up. I also use the jamun and green tea. Hair rinse looks like that. Honestly. When I first tried these, I don't remember which one I tried. It'S all Chronicles in the inside routine, but I just felt like it was okay. I didn't think they were that great, but over my time of using them and you get a lot 16 ounces for like 15 super duper affordable as I kept using them. I was like wait, these are actually amazing and they felt amazing on my hair. Didn'T leave my hair feeling dry at all. I like mixing them into. Like my DIYs, I mix them into several DIYs. Again, that's all Linked In The Insider tea. I remember wasp specific DIY, but I used that mop in a number of ways. I used it to replace my rice, water. I use it with my DIYs, and these are great. I personally can make my own tea rinses, so I wouldn't run out and get these, but if you don't like to DIY - and you want a tea rinse that can help with shedding keep that moisture in just keep your hair doing what your hair needs to do. Then this is cool highly recommend these. I also printed Lorenzo. I used up their mango and clay hair treatment. Y'All know I be using these stuff up. Okay, this was also part of their summer collection. When I first used this, I loved it. I was like. Oh, my God, raving about it the second time I used it. I was like I don't know. I don't know about this and the third time I used it. I was like wait. This is amazing, so I have like mixed feelings about this. I would need to get another bottle and see what I feel about it, but it is a great clay treatment. I don't know what happened that second time, but the other two times it was amazing. So I would give this - I guess, a 7 out of 10 because it has that potential to be amazing, but I don't know I don't know, but it was cool. It was all right. Let'S go into cleansers. I have one shampoo. I used up at least in this bag of empties. I still have a entire full bag of empties that I'm looking at we'll talk about that next month or something sometime before the year ends, because I'm just ripping and running through my products. This is the organic girl. Hair cold grow grope. Why was it girl pool? Look any girl haircut, grow pool which is supposed to grow, clarified, cleanse and heal? I did a sponsored video with Organic girl hair cold like two years ago, and I raved about this shampoo and it is still a good shampoo. It'S definitely is it my so my top three, I would say it's still top five for sure it's still top five. I still think this is a great shampoo after my first impressions. I still really do like this shampoo. You do go through it fast because it's more of a co-wash consistency, but you do get like a shampoo cleanse. So I do like this. It'S top five, but it's not number one or two like it was when I first used it, but I've used several other products. Since then I mean this was two years ago. You know what I mean, but yeah still a great amazing shampoo. I used up two of the Eden Bodyworks cleansing collages, which are some of my favorite co-washes. I have a video of my top 10 natural hair products under ten dollars. If you haven't seen that video check it out right here, I mentioned this product and several other products, but yeah use up two of these babies. I'Ve been using these heavy they've, been in heavy rotation. I have one more of these, and that is the last co-wash that I owned in my stash I'll be going on to making my own collages. If you want to Chronicle that Journey with me, you know what to do join The Insider too. I'M in a good mood just got ta cherish these moments. Y'All these happy moments post pandemic. Like the end of the world era. You just got ta enjoy the happy times and I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm marinating, I'm marinating in this happiness, cleansing collage! This is the peppermint version. I'Ve raved about this before my channel. Still an amazing collage, I do have a coupon code with henna soup is BCL h15. I love this collage. My only con about it is that I use it up in like one use now and that's not really amazing and that's why I'm transitioning to making my own products just because I'm so heavy-handed. But this is amazing. If you're not heavy-handed like me, you're going to get two or three uses from it, and if you don't have a lot of hair, then of course you're gon na get more uses from it. I will still repurchase it. Obviously I love it, but I just had to keep it real y'all like I go through this thing like what's up, I go through it like water and last for cleansers is the Suave daily clarifying conditioner, I'm pretty sure. I also mentioned this in my top 10 products under ten dollars. If not, then here you go. I love this collage, it's like three dollars and it's a great collage. It used to be a staple back in the day. The law from it came back to it and I love her. This is a type of economical collage that you can buy because you're getting 30 ounces for three dollars. You know it's not as good as kind of silk. It doesn't have the same ingredients. The same slip, the same moisture, but for the price though, sometimes the price is right and the price is right in this situation. Let'S talk rental conditioners. I only have two in front of me. The first one, unfortunately has been discontinued, but thanks to my good sis in The Insider tea Tasha, she sent me nine of them, and I think I had two in my stash, so I'm gon na be good for a little minute. This is the Herbal Essences white, charcoal conditioner. If you can still find this at your target, your best, your, but not your Best, Buy your Bed Bath and Beyond your roses, your um Big Lots or whatever those discount retailers. You definitely want to try to pick this up. It'S so freaking good, still, my top rinse out conditioner of all time. I also used up the holy curls conditioner. I did not like this as a conditioner whatsoever. Let'S talk leave-in conditioners, I have the Aunt Jackie's clench leave-in conditioner. It does not come with that top. I mean I'd, be slopping my tops out, but yeah. It'S the constant struggle for me. I also mentioned this in my top 10 products under 10. This is a solid leave-in, definitely not a staple, but if you want to save some coin, I will always recommend this. A leave-in that I do love is the HH Cosmetics, leave-in conditioner, like y'all, see this y'all see this. You know when somebody loves something I have to make sure I got every drop out of it. I do have a coupon code for HH Cosmetics. It is BCL h10. My hair has been prospering since I've been using these products consistently, and the answer is always yes to these and lastly, for leave-ins, I have the inky list: hyaluronic acid hydrating, hair treatment. I wanted to use this as like a moisturizing treatment, because I do like hyaluronic acid on my skin, but this was not giving not for Type 4 kinky hair. Maybe if you have a looser texture, you may enjoy this as a hydrating treatment, but it wasn't giving not for me now all right, y'all, let's go into stylers. I have some creams and I have some gels. I have the comet biologics Cocoa Tree, detangling ghee. That is what this looks like. This is another product where I was like. Hmm, sometimes I'm like. Oh, this is cool and other times I was like. I don't really know how I feel about this. It was very hit or miss and because it's not cheap, it's not something where I would confidently recommend it. So the answer is no for me. Unfortunately, I had no parts in using this product up. This was all Richmond. I wanted. He needed something for his beard and his hair, and I wasn't gon na give him nothing else. So I gave him this. I give him the Talia wahi green apple, Pearl Elixir. I tried it once and it was cool, but I never reached for it again. So I was like might as well just give it to him and he loved this. He loved this on his beard and his hair. He wants me to re-buy it, but I won't we just opt to to my stuff. So the answer is no, and I wouldn't rebuy it it's it's gone for my own personal business reasons, but good riddance, good luck and then I also use that from I didn't use this stuff. This was this had an expiration date on it, and I was y'all know I pushed things to the Limit, but an expiration date gives me pause. I'M pretty sure it's still good, but I was impressed to use it honestly it I had it for years, never used it. So I'm just willing to let it go. It'S the Talia. Why he'd hold me down jelly? I know there's some people that absolutely love this and that's cool or whatever, but I'm I'm good on that and the lastly, I used up. Finally, the pow gel, which I have a dedicated video on that you can check it out in the cards um. This isn't even sold at also anymore. I don't know what's up with that, this was not a good gel um. Would I recommend this probably one of the worst man Choice gel so yeah, I'm Gon na Keep the I'm Gon na Keep the packaging for DIYs, but the product itself in the packaging. Now I'm good on that too, I'm lying, I also have another Styler. I have the AG Cloud I purchased this from Ulta when it was on sale. I ripped it up, so I could see how much product in it. I can't stand products where I can't see how much I have left. I don't know it gives me anxiety. This was not good, especially for the price. This is like a forty dollar move, something crazy like that, and it just had no reholes so nah I used up quite a few oils. I used up clove oil love. This in my DIYs talks. A lot about this. In The Insider tea, it's just so good use up some peppermint oil as well one of my favorite oils, and I won't repurchase right now, but definitely will be purchased in the future and that's the same for clove oil as well. Just try to use up the things are in my stash, but both of these are solid oils to use on your hair and your scalp, the curls hair under their potion child. I use this up in a DIY. I didn't love the ingredients in this. It'S supposed to be for like nourishing and all of that, but it didn't really have nourishing ingredients so marketing scam. So I use that up. Like I said in my DIYs, I also used up my DIY grease and I just wanted to you know count that towards me making strides. Please have my sash. I used up two vitamins. I used up the hum hair sweet hair. I only used it for one month, so I didn't get like a true representation of how it worked. I used up some D3, which I was really put on to, because apparently black people have a deficiency in D3, so I picked it up. I haven't used it in several months and I don't see a difference in my hair or my skin at least no noticeable difference. So I don't I'm not sure if I would pick this up either. Honestly, I don't know: let's go into diy things. I used up child. I think this is the models diy things I've had mt's video. I have gone through a lot. I'Ve been consciously trying to go through all of my ingredients. I used up the Russell clay. I mentioned this in my use of video a few months ago. If you haven't seen that video, you can check it out this mixed with cocoa powder y'all. My chocolate clay mask like that DIY that I post in The Insider. Tea is amazing. If you haven't seen that video like you, are asleep, because the that DIY is so freaking amazing, like one of the best clay masks I've ever made ever, I use up the henna silk Moroccan hair tea. I I've been making a lot of DIYs. You know, like I said so - I did use this up in several DIYs, so that is gone. I also used up some mango butter, shout out to my girls in this adore for sending me this sis knew she wasn't about to use it, so she sent it to me, and I did in fact use it up, and I made a bunch of DIYs with It so thank you again. Denise also used up some avocado oil, a Big Daddy from Costco this used to be about 18, and that was 22.. This has become, you know, a pricing kind of oil, so I don't buy this as much as I used to, but I'll Always Love avocado oil. Like always always I use up some btms. This is a fatty alcohol that you can find in almost any conditioner. You can buy on the market. I use this up to make several DIYs over the last few months, so I've shared in The Insider tea, so that's gone. I also use up some beeswax. I also have another one somewhere, because I use up two packets of this. I made a like butter bombs situation, oh so good like if you've never used, beeswax in your body, butters game, changing honestly game. Changing I used up. Some preservative always have to preserve my DIYs. When I make my rice, water and other DIYs, I like putting preservatives in it, I know preservatives get a bad name in the natural Community, but if you don't have preservative your gon na move okay, so you need preservative even when you use preservative it can mold. I had a situation inside of your tea, where I used a preservative and the product still molded it, so it was so unstable that, even with the preservative, it just wasn't enough to maintain the stability of the product so preservatives you need your preservatives. I finally used up some polysorbit 20. I'Ve had this for a while used it up in a pre-pool, some soy lecithin. You all know I like using this in my hair growth, or I finally use this up as well. I used up several fragrance oils. I go through some fragrance oils, at least a few every like six months, and this is the first time I think ever mentioned them in my empties, but hey transparency. I use fragrance oils. I do love my Essential Oils, but I love smelling like gummy bears and cake and stuff sometimes so I do. You know, hit a little Razzle Dazzle on my DIYs to give them that commercial cupcake scent that a lot of us like so use up these. Let'S go into body care, I use a three body care products. I used up the soft soap coconut butter scrub. I honestly wanted to like this a lot more because y'all know I love the OGX, coconut and coffee, and I also like the caress shea butter and brown sugar, brown, sugar and Shea Butter love those like hybrid body wash scrub things, but this was just okay. I didn't love it when I repurchase it, I mean, if you want to try it, you know it's cheap, like five dollars: Audrey X, coconut Miracle Oil body. Wash again, I thought I would be obsessed with this, like I was the other OGX body wash, but it was cool. It was my shirt Rising, but there's just something about it. That wasn't quite a love. If that makes sense, you know good, but it's okay. Also the good wash down there wash. I wanted to try this because um Andrew Renee talks about this all the time and honestly, I wasn't a fan of this. It kind of gave me like a tingling feeling and not in a good way, so I wouldn't repurchase this. It does have fragrance in it. So that may be why I wasn't a fan of it now there are other feminine washes that I do much prefer than this one. Now, let's go into skincare y'all know: skincare is my love. I mean you, don't have skin like this, like a base like this without having good skin, I do have a pimple, because none of us are above getting acne Even in our 30s, but we move. So I have a cleansing bomb. The glow recipe papaya sorbet enzyme cleansing bomb. This is another product that I kind of went back and forth about. I changed my mind about it, multiple times um. When I first started using it, I was like oh yeah. This is it because it has an amazing scent, it smells, it doesn't smell like papaya, it smells like peaches, just very fruity and sweet. This is one of the first few cleansing bombs, I've ever tried and after trying quite a bit, this just doesn't stack up to the others. I would give it like a seven out of ten. It'S not bad, but it's not amazing. There are definitely better ones on the market, especially because this is like forty dollars. Definitely not a repurchase for me, use up two type of physical exfoliating cleansers the verse day maker micro Crystal exfoliator. That'S what this looks like. I ended up using this on my body because I just realized. I don't really use physical exfoliation very much. I prefer retinol and chemical exfoliants like ahas bhas. I don't really scrub my face that much every now and every now and again I do like that feeling, but not my thing. So I would not repurchase this, but it's cool. It'S all right, as well as the tatcha the rice wash. This has like gentle beads in it, but it's much softer than reverse, so it doesn't feel as for lack of a better word abrasive, I would try this again. I definitely want to get the full size to try it out more because I really enjoyed how this made my skin feel and how good I felt about my skin. I like getting samples from Sephora, because you can try products that you wouldn't otherwise try. I would never ever have picked this up and I actually will know and lastly, for cleansers is this CeraVe acne foaming cream cleanser? I used it all up honestly y'all. I don't really have an impression of this, because I mostly use this up on my body and because I don't really honestly suffer with acne. I just get hormonal acne, so it's not something I'm going to lean on. I don't feel strongly about it. I don't have a true feeling about it and I wish I did, but I don't, let's go into treatment products I have from in front of me, because sis loves treating herself when it comes to skin care. I have too much eye creams. I have the Murad vitamin C eyes Dark Circle corrector. This did not fix my dark circles because my child's falling apart. This did not fix my dark circles, because my dark circles are genetic, they're, hereditary and they're, not due to stress or environmental factors. So this can't fix my jeans, so I still have dark marks, so this doesn't do anything incredible for me, so not a repurchase. This was sent in PR and I wouldn't purchase this with my own money. I also use up the good molecules eye cream like yo. This is all used up again like this wasn't eye creams, I don't know I haven't, found an eye cream yet where I'm like yeah. This does something I know over time. They can prevent like fine lines and like crow's, feet and stuff, but at 30 years old, with this beautiful skin that I have, I don't see the need for at least these two eye creams topicals faded. I use this all the way up. This is a great treatment for hyperpigmentation for helping to give you that smooth skin. Just it's just doing all the things. I definitely would recommend this and I would definitely repurchase it. Dermatology, vitamin C E and F in my previous empties I ranted about this product and this company, this company is complete trash, had a terrible experience with this company and I wouldn't repurchase this ever ever again. Lastly, for treatments, I have the Dermalogica circular, hydration serum, it's their hyaluronic acid. Basically, and it's like forty dollars, I don't think you should pay 40 for no hyaluronic acid, so I wouldn't recommend this. This was sent in PR, but no Dermalogica has great products, but I just don't think that's worth the money. Eyes lies and moralized and lies on top of lies, because I have one more treatment product. This is the doctor. Then This Grass Alpha Beta Universal daily peel. This is a child kit that I purchased during the Sephora Vib sale. I know everyone loves this Denise loves this Alexis loves this, and maybe I just need to try the extra extra strength, because I'm I'm not Wild by this, and I don't know if I'm seeing results and I'm just not seeing the results if that makes sense. So I don't know I don't I don't know. I have three sunscreens in front of me. One I've already talked to you about is the Biore UV, which is a staple uh. Sunscreen did I mention I'm pretty sure I mentioned this in my top skincare under ten dollars such a good sunscreen, I even repurchased it it's just so good, the Murad City, Skin age, defense boom. This is another product. This is another product where at first I was like. Oh, this is great. It'S a mineral sunscreen. It doesn't leave a white cast. This is perfect, as I kept using it and kept like adding layers to it, because if y'all don't know, I do reapply my sunscreen every two hours. This was it it's it's one of the better mineral sunscreens, but for the price I can't get jiggy with it. You know what I mean like you have to use so much sunscreen that I'm not sure if it's worth the money, I I don't know. Oh no. The lastly, is a super group. Defense refresh this has been formulated and I haven't tried the new formula. This was cool, because this was a nice spray on this by itself is not enough to give you the sun protection. You still need to go in with your traditional sunscreen, because I don't think most people are spring enough to get that even even coverage that the amount of sunscreen that you need to protect your skin to apply over makeup. It is good if you have oily skin stay away. If you have more dry normal skin, then it's okay, but after layer and layer this can start to like you know it can add up and it does burn my eyes. So the answer is no, unfortunately, and then, lastly, because this video has been long enough, one home thing - I used up The Sensational pumpkin coconut uh candle. I got this from TJ Maxx like way back in the day in 2019 y'all so long ago, and we finally used it up. We used it up because Richmond left it on in the bedroom for half the day, and I didn't know when he used up my candle. It is what it is. We'Ve had it long enough, but anyway y'all this video has been long enough. So I'm gon na shut up. Let me know what products you've seen in this video that you're thinking about picking up or you've tried, and you don't like or you love. Definitely let me know, let me know what you've used up lately and all that good stuff and I'll talk to y'all later peace, bye, all
