The Best Product For Dry, Damaged, Brittle Hair | Carol's Daughter Goddess Strength Fortifying Conditioner

I'm a hair product junkie! Having such difficult hair my entire life has led me down the road of trying out endless hair products, always looking for the next best thing.

Over the last couple of years, my hair has become even worse. It is now very fragile and brittle. With some grey hairs coming in and the texture seemed to change after getting covid in 2022 (not to mention extreme hair loss).

I recently stumbled upon Carol's Daughter Goddess Strength fortifying conditioner for weak, breakage prone hair, so I just had to try it. This products key ingredient is castor oil, which is known to make hair healthier and even aid in hair growth. 

I decided to start out with just the conditioner as I still have about 5000 bottles of shampoo to finish and I figured the conditioner would be a better gage of its efficacy.

 

Product Claims:

• MOISTURIZING CONDITIONER FOR CURLY HAIR: Helps target weak hair, restoring intense moisture and strengthening hair so each strand is stronger from root to tip; Can act as a hair detangler so there’s less breakage and curls can keep its length
• FOR WEAK, BREAKAGE-PRONE HAIR: Our paraben free deep conditioner for dry damaged hair, blended with Castor Oil, Black Cumin Seed & Ginger to support the strength of curls as they grow; Delivers 15x stronger hair & 94% less breakage in one use
• COILY, CURLY, WAVY HAIR PRODUCTS: Carol’s Daughter Goddess Strength created for natural hair and 4C, 4B, 4A, 3C, 3B, 3A, 2C, 2B curl types; Complete the routine: Curly Hair Shampoo, Leave in Cream & Hair Oil to improve manageability and frizz control

After the first use, my rough, frizzy and brittle hair felt like a completely different head of hair after blow drying it. My hair became smooth and soft, I couldn't stop touching it! My hair was much more hydrated and didn't feel as fragile and brittle. I did find that I couldn't go as long without washing it after the first use. I went 2 days without washing vs. 3. After my hair got used to the product, I am back to shampooing every 3 days now.

This product really lives up to its claims. It's my favorite hair product now and I'm definitely going to add the shampoo to my routine and I'm hoping my results will be even better. 

You can use the conditioner as a mask or regular conditioner.  I honestly could get rid of all my other conditioners and just use this one and feel my hair will be far healthier in the long run.

At only $11.99, you just can't go wrong! Purchased on Amazon.

Dove Men + Care Hydrating Clean Comfort Body and Face Wash

Dove Men + Care Hydrating Clean Comfort Body and Face Wash has such a fabulous fresh scent that can be used by both men and women. My guy loves it and I do as well. 

My boyfriend can be very stinky when he comes home from work. This body wash combats the stink and he smells so fresh and clean after using it! The fresh scent lingers on his body even after he's showered. 

He also loves that it's a multi purpose product and he can use it on his face and body as he cannot be bothered with a separate face and body wash. It lathers up really well and leaves skin so soft, clean, and hydrated. I have personally been using Dove body products for over 30 years because they are the best and recommended by my dermatologist. 💯

About:

This body wash is specifically designed for men’s skin by the #1 dermatologist recommended men’s brand since 2013. Typical soap for men strips away oil and other essential skin components, leaving you with dry, flaky, and irritated skin. Dove Men+Care is a mild cleanser with plant-based moisturizers and skin-strengthening nutrients to help rebuild skin and skin proteins. Dove Men+Care Body and Face Wash is an easy-to-rinse, hydrating body wash that is clinically proven to fight dry skin better than a regular men’s body soap or shower gel. It is also gentle enough to use as a face wash for men. Clean Comfort features a fresh, crisp scent that will leave you feeling refreshed long after you shower.


You can never go wrong with Dove body products. The price is right and you really can't get much better than Dove when it comes to body care. It's simple yet effective 👌

Weekly Favourite | Youth to the People 15% Vitamin C + Caffeine Energy Serum Review

Welcome to another installment of our Weekly Favourite! 

This week, I'm featuring Youth to the People's 15% Vitamin C + Caffeine Energy Serum. - SRP $68 USD/ 1oz.

I've been a huge fan of Vitamin C for the skin for as long as I can remember. Unfortunately, I had gotten away from using it because I'm always trying out new skincare. I was planning on incorporating a Vitamin C serum back into my skincare routine and that's when Youth to the People's (YTTP) 15% Vitamin C + Caffeine Energy Serum landed on my desk- Talk about manifestation! I was so happy to begin using a vitamin C serum again as it a very powerful antioxidant and well known for its benefits with brightening the skin, lessening hyperpigmentation, and even building collagen in the skin.

I often hear dermatologists recommend Retin-A, sunscreen + a good moisturizer, and vitamin C for the skin. Using that as my basis for my new skincare routine, I added peptides to the mix because I'm a huge fan of them. After a bit of research, making sure that I wasn't using products that would cancel each other out, I came up with the following routine:

AM:

Cleanse, tone, YTTP Vitamin C + Caffeine Serum, sunscreen

PM:

Cleanse, tone, Retin-A, peptides, night cream

I've been following this regime for almost 3 weeks now and my skin and I are loving it!

About my skin type: Aging (over 50), combo, dehydrated, acne-prone, melasma.

BENEFITS (Taken from YTTP):

• Ultra-stable 15% vitamin C
• Non-irritating + great for sensitive skin
• Fragrance-free + fresh scent from plant extracts
• Lightweight + fast absorbing
• Blends well + never sticky

KEY INGREDIENTS:

15% Vitamin C Complex: Three powerful sources of vitamin c are combined in our pro-grade formula—Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate (THD Ascorbate), and Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate—for maximum efficacy and stability.

Yerba Mate + Guayusa: Naturally high in caffeine, this superleaf-derived extract enhances microcirculation to reduce morning puffiness.

Passion Fruit: High in antioxidants, helps scavenge for free radicals.

Dragon Fruit: Promotes skin health and replenishes essential moisture.

Squalane: An emollient that provides weightless hydration, locking in moisture.

CLAIMS:

• No added fragrance 
• 100% vegan ingredients
• Premium superfood extracts
• Recyclable packaging
• Made in USA
• No animal testing
• No dimethicone
• No parabens
• No phthalates
• No sulfates
• No PEGs

The serum has a beautiful slip to it, it spreads easily and my skin drinks it up. I only need 2 pumps out of the 2-4 that is recommended, which means it will last for quite a while. I apply the serum to my face and neck, as well as my eye area. YTTP's website states that it is Ophthalmologist tested so it is safe for the eye area. 

After the first use, I noticed a difference in how my skin looked, so it does have some immediate effects. My skin looked brighter, fresher, and had a healthy glow. After a few weeks, I notice my skin looking smoother, more even-toned, brighter, fresher, and younger overall. My skin also feels firmer to the touch. I also notice less puffiness around my eyes.

I am so glad that I decided to incorporate this serum into my skincare regime. I'm much happier with how my skin looks and I look forward to using it every morning. I have reactive skin and some vitamin C serums make me breakout. Luckily, I haven't had any reaction or breakouts whatsoever with this YTTP serum. I am looking forward to seeing further improvements as I continue to use this wonderful serum!
