Review- Nurturing Force Tropical Tamanu Oil

"Nurturing Force® discovered Tamanu Oil about two years ago, in a quest for a quick, easy to use, fast penetrating serum; not just for the face, but the hair, scalp, hands and body also. With liquid travel restrictions and a limit on what we can fit in makeup kits and bags; our goal was to offer a multi-purpose product. We choose Tamanu Oil for its anti-oxidants, anti-bacterial anti-inflammatory and moisturizing properties; backed by a rich cultural history of its origin and use in Polynesia for the hair skin and body." $18

Everyone is all abuzz about Argan oil these days, and don't get me wrong, I think that Argan oil is great.  I used to use Argan oil until I was introduced to Tamanu oil by the kind people at Nurturing Force (which is a great family- owned and run company btw).  This oil does it all!  It tames fly-awyas and conditions hair but I love it for what it does for your skin.  It has anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-viral and anti-oxidant properties and if you suffer from dry skin and acne, this stuff can be a life-saver.  This serum moisturizes my skin and absorbs completely leaving no oil slick behind.  I usually augment it with another moisturizer, but if you are on the oily side, you could use this alone as your moisturizer.  I use about 3 drops warmed between my palms and patted onto my face and neck.  For hair, because mine is fine and straight, I literally use 1 drop rubbed between my palms and run over my dry hair and ends.  It smoothes even the fiercest of fly-aways.  A bottle of this oil serves so many functions so economically that I feel every woman (and man) should own a bottle!

Review - Biosilk Silk Therapy



Ideal for all hair types. Leave in replenishing & reconstructing treatment. Bonds & strengthens the hair inside & outside. Fills any voids on cuticle layer. Repairs split ends. Protects (Heat, UV, cold, pollution)

If your a regular reader, or are just looking up these awesome Biosilk products you will notice that my review for the Biosilk Shampoo and Conditioner combo mentioned the fact that they are not my favorite without this Silk Therapy. I absolutely adore it, and I think that unless your willing to invest in all three together, don't bother with just the shampoo and conditioner. Well, no, I probably shouldn't say that, they really are nice by themselvs....but you have to try this stuff! You will go through the shampoo and contitioner much quicker than the Silk Therapy, so you'll only need to invest every couple of months. You only need a little drop, so the container will last you forever. I have had mine almost a month and it still hasn't gone under the neck of the bottle. The serum leaves your hair feeling amazing. Smooth as silk and very healthy. It isn't sticky and won't wear your hair down. You'll notice over time that it really does seem to repair hair folicals and split ends. I love this stuff, and will definitely be re-purchasing, if I ever need to!
