Caribbean Curls 
Island Splash Edition:

  • Alikay Naturals/ Black Onyx Avocado Cream Moisture Repairing Hair Mask - Used 2x; Lives up to its name: moisturizes and repairs! Product leaves hair silky soft and tangle-free! After 45 minutes, the comb just slid effortlessly through my hair. Leaves a great smell and results lasted for almost a week. Con: A tad pricey but might purchase anyway #ProductJunkie
  • L.A.C.E. Naturals Mas Humedad (More Moisture) Cream - Used 2x; Works well as a leave-in. Have to apply another leave-in after 3 days.
  • Amazing Botanicals Hibiscus Gel  - Used 3x; Great twists which equaled great twist outs! Pics below.
  • Jamaican Mango & Lime Coiling Creme Pudding - Did Not Receive
  • Nice & Curly Same Day Repair Creme Conditioner - Did Not Receive
  • Wondercurl Mango Colada Polishing Pomade - Not quite sure how to use this so Unopened & unused
  • African Pride Shea Butter Miracle Silky Hair Moisturizer - Used 1x; hair felt rough and dry, even with a moisturizing leave-in underneath. After applying Amazing Botanicals Hibiscus Gel on top, hair became manageable. Did not live up to name!
  • 4 Naturals Afro Stretch Curl Cream - Unopened & unused
  • Nourishea Mango Conditioner - Unopened & unused
Update -- 9/25/2012
