back at it again! courtesy of my sister who has like a million dollars in sephora credit for whatever reason.
she got me:
olaplex 0 and 3
2 tubing mascaras
a dior lip oil
and some beauty blender stuff.
I never tried tubing mascara before but it's amazing, might not go back to regular!
to round out the saga of my sister the toiletries plug.
i was in her city recently on a spur of the moment road trip, i told her i forgot to pack some hair product. she says i will bring you a care package and this is what she brings to my room less than an hour later lol. turns out she is a hoarder
the bread hair oil is the truth though and black owned .
One of my fav lipstick makers has been out of a color I like for years now but they show it on the site (I'm sure they re-up on them in limited amounts and not genuinely have them up this long) but
why are 27 of your 35 products x'd out get it together
I am determined to actually use my products more and not let them sit I have way too many, finally organized them at least

The easiest way is to get her Sephora or Macy's scent packs, they're trial sizes (anywhere from $25 - $75) and some are redeemable for a larger so she'll learn what she likes and can go from there. They come with 7-8 brands, that's how I discover new loves although I don't need more perfume.

I've been using Black Girl Sunscreen (SPF 30). However I might go back to Fenty sunscreen.
Anyone wit locs for a long time help me out? Got the startes first time in life this year..... Aftera while I started gettin flakes a little dandruff mostly after retwist. It ain't bad bad but I never had no flake or dandruff issue till locs. I gotta be doin somethin wrong wit maintenance asked round. I wash my shyts twice a week Sunday and Wednesday. I need real proven advice not no auntie coconut oil bull that shyt made it worse 
Nizoral will work for the day I wash my shyts but it don't last. What products yall usin or maybe type of washin? Is twice a week washin em too much?

- You need to completely eliminate refined sugars and carbs from your diet (I'd advise doing a 3-day fast to reset your body) which is the main cause of Malassezia yeast on the scalp.Anyone wit locs for a long time help me out?

- Get you a good zinc supplement and/or incorporate more zinc-enriched foods into your diet.
- Sunshine on your scalp everyday and let your shyt breathe (try and refrain from walking around in any sort of head wrap regularly)
- Get you a good non-residue dry shampoo that you can spray on every other day
- Don't go to bed with a damp scalp.
- Get you a humidifier for your room when you sleep at night (keeps your skin and hair hydrated).
You're not going to remove dandruff, entirely, just due to the nature of how your hair is enclosed, but you can mitigate some of it.
As a dark skinned truck driver, I'm finding the need for sunscreen . Can you go more in depth with Fenty? Does it leave a haze? Does it dry out the skin? Etc
My diet been cleaned up I'm good on that. I hit gym 4 times a week that dry shampoo seem it must be a good idea. Ya got a brand to go for? Is washin my shyts twice a week too much most nikkas I know wit locs say twice a week is a lil too much might get em shyts dry and flaky but it's hard not to wit workouts I do ion wanna feel musty. Hmmm.......that humidifier sound like it could be helpful too I'll look out for that. Appreciate ya
