Bye Bye Dry Itchy Scalp! Thank You Darshana Natural Indian Hair Oil!

[button link=”#” target=”_blank” color=”default” shape=”rounded” size=”small” align=”left”]Sample Provided[/button] I love Ayurvedic hair products. I’ve been using them since I decided to go natural in 2009. For the past couple of months I’ve been pre conditioning my hair with Darshana Natural Indian Hair Oil and I can honestly say that it has definitely changed the way my hair feels. Natural hair, especially 4B-4C type hair has the tendency to look a feel dry.

I can’t move, I can’t refresh my screen, and I don’t even want to move the mouse. I just have to sit patiently and wait my turn in line for ordering products. It’s almost equivalent to a new shoe launch,…

Stop the Presses! CVS Sells NYX Cosmetics Now!

Yesterday I was on the hunt for some new Maybelline products. Actually, there is word on the street that new Maybelline Color Tattoos exists and of course you all know I NEED these in my collection. I stopped at Bed Bath and Beyond first which was an absolute bust. I then stopped at the CVS across the street from it and whomp whomp, nada. On the way home I decided to stop at another CVS and as soon as I walked in the door my eyes caught glimpse of something that I just knew was absolutely wrong.. There in all…
