Garnier Whole Blends Legendary Olive Shampoo & Conditioner Review



As I stated in the previous, I have never tried a bad Garnier product. And the same can be said for this shampoo and conditioner that I received a free sample of from PinchME. 

It felt super moisturizing and made my hair feel silky and smooth. My hair wasn't greasy looking or anything, like it has been after I tried previous products that contained olive oil in them. So I'm pretty sure Garnier has got the formula right in their products. It smells so fresh and clean as well, not overwhelming at all.

I want to apologize again for such a short review but there isn't much else to say about products such as these other than to try them for oneself and see if you like them. 

Until Next Time

Garnier Moisturizing Bomb Face Mask Review



I can honestly say that so far I have yet to have a bad experience with any Garnier products. And this goes from shampoo to face wash. Their products go above and beyond any of my expectations; which makes me happy because I know that they actually care about their customers. 

This product I have been eyeing for a bit and I am so glad that I finally got to try it. The smell was amazing and it felt so amazing to use. My skin felt amazing after I put on this mask on after a day at a water park. It felt so moisturizing and relaxing, giving my skin some much needed moisture after spending hours in the sun. The mask itself is a good thickness and is completely saturated with a nice, cool product. The coolness of the product lasts the entire time you have the mask on and even goes beyond that after massaging the product into your face. 

There isn't much else that I can say about this product but I do encourage everyone to go out and try it for themselves at least once. You have to treat yourself!

Until Next Time

Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine Zero


Image Source: Google
Now I admit that when it comes to hair care products, I am a bit biased. The one true line of hair care products that have never let me down or disappointed me in anyway is Garnier Fructis. I have tried several other hair care product lines and while they do a good job, I find myself coming back to Garnier Fructis time and time again. By far out of any other hair care product line, it is the one that my hair responds best to and I don't see the point in changing that anytime soon.

So I admit that when I saw this new product line from Garnier Fructis for their Sleek & Shine products, I was admittedly over the moon to try out this product. This is mostly because out of all of the product lines, Sleek & Shine has been the absolute best for my hair. This is because my hair is not only naturally curly but it is very thick; so it goes to say that when it gets hot and humid, my hair reacts by getting into a frizzy mess. And I don't have to tell you how hard it is to manage frizzy hair, it can be a downright nightmare. But thanks to Sleek & Shine, I have been able to keep my mane under control which I have never been more thankful for a product line than I am with Sleek & Shine.

Now it needs to be said that I wasn't in the mind to try out this new line from Sleek & Shine when I first found out that it was coming out. But habits that I have been unknowingly changing since the beginning of this year prompted me to give it a try. I have been trying to use only natural hair care and skin care products; which the funny thing is, I had no idea I was even doing it! It actually took me a few weeks to even notice what products I was choosing and which ones I weren't repurchasing. Now I admit that picking out hair care products was the most difficult because I was really dreading giving up my Garnier Fructis for some other products that I weren't sure would even help my hair out a little. And by this time, I had completely forgot about the new line coming out from Sleek & Shine; so I was downright depressed when I ran out of my favorite shampoo and conditioner and ventured into the store to purchase some different products that I have never tried before.

But as I searched through the shelves, picking up this bottle and putting it right back; I was beginning to lose hope, nothing was catching my eye. My hope was fleeting and I was just about to give up and try another store when something caught my eye at the very last shelf on the end of the aisle. I was so happy that I couldn't barely contain myself, I couldn't believe that I forgot about this product coming out. I already knew that the product didn't contain any silicone in it, hence the name but seeing it in person, I literally cannot describe how happy I was. Sure it wasn't as natural as I could go but I am more than willing to make that decisions as some things aren't worth giving up just yet.

So I bought my new shampoo, conditioner and leave in serum and made my way back home with the my treasures. I have to say that this product line seems to work even quicker than the original Sleek & Shine.

I immediately noticed a difference just after one washing, my hair not only felt lighter and but it just felt more cared for. I'm not sure if it the absence of silicone or what but I have never been so happy with a result. I cannot recommend this product enough, it really does feel like my hair is now lighter than air. Even with using Sleek & Shine, my hair still felt a bit heavy but with Zero I don't get that heavy feeling at all. And as for the frizz...well, it's still there but not nearly as bad and I have noticed that the more I use these products, the more the frizz seems to simply vanish. I have no doubt that after a few more washes that the frizz will be completely gone which suits me just fine because frizzy hair during the summer heat isn't fun for anyone.

Well that does it for this review!

Until Next Time!

Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Intensely Smooth Leave-In Conditioning Cream Review


If you have thick, curly hair that is known to be very frizzy, even after straightening then if you're not familiar with this product; then I highly recommend it!

My hair is not only thick, curly but it's super long and it really does have a mind of it's own. Even when I straighten it, it still becomes frizzy and out of control in just a few hours. I hate that! And I know that I'm not the only one that hates it. It can be so annoying, especially in humid weather; which is very common where I live. I'm so glad that I was given this product as a gift and I was able to try it out. I couldn't believe that I have finally found something that actually works to not only tame my frizz but didn't leave my hair looking greasy and feel weighed down.

Now I don't put it all over my hair because it's really only the last 2 inches of my hair are my main issues with becoming frizzy and unmanageable. So I put maybe a little less than a nickel size worth and it keeps my ends from frizzing all day! I still couldn't believe it even after seeing the result on my own and I have never been so happy to have this product in my hair product collections.

One thing that I have noticed since using this product is that even when I don't use it for a few days after washing my hair, my ends aren't as frizzy as they usually get before I tried out this product. I can't help but wonder if even after washing my hair that it is still helping my hair stay sleek and manageable. Either way, I'm not going to question the results because I don't want them to go away.

I do highly recommend this product along with the other products in the Sleek and Shine line from Garnier Fructis. And once again apologizes for the short review but longer ones are coming soon! Thank you for being patient.

Until Next Time!

Garnier SkinActive Brightening & Smoothing Daily Moisturizer Review


Once again I find myself reviewing a product that has a pretty long name and once again I find myself not minding in the least. When I first tried this product, I admit that I was not a fan of it at all; I felt that instead of being moisturizing that it felt greasy on my skin. I didn't like the way it felt on my skin at all so I didn't use it for a good week. But I decided to try and give it another go since I had already spent the money on it and I wasn't about to let that money go to waste.

So I tried it again and for some reason the second time I used it, I loved it! I don't know if my skin was just having an off day when I first tried or something else. But like I said, after I tried it for the second time I was hooked on this product. It went on smoothly, it didn't feel greasy on my skin at all and it worked miracles for the dry skin that seems to plague me; especially on the sides of my nose, the sides of my cheek and in my eyebrows. I was surprised that this product helped that dry skin so much in all honesty because I have tried several other products before but none seem to have had the result that SkinActive seemed to have. Granted it took about a week of daily use but I immediately noticed the difference. The redness that I was plagued with as well as the dry skin was pretty much gone. So I find myself using this moisturizer daily and becoming more and more hooked on it after every day.

I really shouldn't have doubted this product because Garnier has to be one of my favorite companies that product several of my all-time favorite products that I use consistently in my daily routines, etc. I do highly recommend all of their products and I urge everyone to go out and try this product for themselves to see if they like it.

Again I apologize for the short review but there are personal matters that I have to have most of my attention if not all of it on at the moment. I thank you for understanding and bid your patience a bit longer.

Until Next Time!

Garnier Whole Blends Honey Treasures Shampoo & Conditioner Review

Image Source: Google
Image Source: Google
I straighten my hair, not as much as I used to and I dye my hair; so repairing my hair is important to me. And if I can do it without so many different products then I'll happily try it at least once.

Like the previous two reviews, I was able to try this shampoo and conditioner through Crowdtap.

Now with everything that I have tried from Garnier, I instantly fall in love with and I will keep using them over and over again. And just like with previous products I can happily add this shampoo/conditioner to the same list.

The smell is just absolutely fantastic, especially to me since I love the smell of honey. I love the way it makes my hair feel and that it will help heal and strengthen my hair after each use.

With the previous shampoos/conditioners from Whole Blends, I will switch them up. Since I have such long and thick hair, I will wash my hair about 3 times a week and each time I will use a different shampoo/conditioner set so my hair gets the full treatment. Granted since Summer is around the corner, I might lean more towards going to the one that helps ease frizzy hair since my hair tends to frizz more during the Summer due to the heat.

Anyway, thanks for reading this review! Until Next Time

Garnier Whole Blends Coconut Oil & Cocoa Butter Shampoo & Conditioner Review

Image Source: Google
This shampoo and conditioner set have quickly become my favorite, especially for the summer. As many of you know I live in the Southern part of the US and when Summer decides to hit us, it hits us hard, hot and humid; not good for anything with thick hair that is prown to frizz in the heat.

I can't even begin to count the numerous shampoos, conditioners, and hair treatments that I have tried over the years to try and get it to tame the mane that is my hair. Now I have found other products that do work on my hair but by far the best products I have found have been made by Garnier and these two products do not disappoint at all.

Image Source: Google

Now coming from someone that just absolutely hates coconut, I found myself quickly addicted to this scent of this shampoo/conditioner. I was once again happy to note that like all other products that I use by Garnier that a little does go a long way. And this is coming from someone who has very thick, naturally curly and long hair, with my hair reaching almost mid-back.

I love the fact that this combination not only tames the frizz near my scalp but also tames the frizz that is the most prominent in my ends. My ends are the worst to frizz, especially at the roots so it's nice to have more products that can help tame these wild roots of mine.

There isn't much else I can say about this product but I do urge everyone that has problems with frizzy hair to give this a try at least once. I was able to try it through Crowdtap of which I am thankful for because I don't think I would have known about these two products until much later on in the year; possibly after summer, so I'm very glad that I got to try them out before Summer truly hit here.

Thanks for reading this review! Until Next Time!

Product Review: Whole Blends Coconut Water & Vanilla Milk


Hello and welcome to another product review. Today I'm going to be reviewing Whole Blends Coconut Water & Vanilla Milk. 

Image Source: Google
 I was able to try out this product through Crowdtap, which is a site that is similar to Influenster but there is more opportunities to try out new products such as makeup, shampoo, conditioner, snacks, etc. I highly recommend it for anyone who is interested in trying out different products. 
Anyway I was able to try out both the shampoo and conditioner of this brand along with several other products from the Whole Blends line, which I will be reviewing in my next couple of posts following this one. 

Image Source: Google
I wanted to review this one first as I know that since it is becoming summer time in many places that having dry hair is a big no-no when it comes to summer due to all of us wanting to look out best right? Well this shampoo and conditioner promises to quench and hydrate our hair. And I am very happy to report that it does indeed live up to that promise. 

I have to admit that after trying out several different brands of shampoo/conditioner that promise the exact same thing that I didn't have my hopes set too high when I tried out this product for the first. But to my shock and much surprise, after just once washing I could already tell a difference in my hair, especially at my scalp and roots. No longer did they feel dry and rough to the touch but instead now they felt smooth and silky and above all else, hydrated.

Living in the south as I do, it is not uncommon to have dry hair during the summer as the humidity seems to increase; especially during the summer months. Some of us do what we can, trying different homemade methods from the odd to the just plain strange. But I feel with this shampoo and conditioner I can put my mind at ease and focus on more important summer business, such as working on that tan; lol.


There really isn't much else I can say about these two products other than like many Garnier products, a little does indeed go along way so you'll be able to use a bottle of each for a quite some time. And this is coming from someone that has thick, long and very curly hair and just a little works wonders for my hair so I know that it can be done. The smell is also very subtle but one that smells amazing as well. It is the perfect combination of Coconut and Vanilla; which is surprisingly a very nice combination of smells. The scent does linger for a few hours after washing your hair but it is not overpowering at all.

Well that's it for this product review! Keep an eye out for more reviews from Whole Blends!

Until Next Time!
