UPDATE: (9-23-2013)

I decided that Koils By Nature would be the first product that I would try from this month's Curl Kit.  The smell was smoothly Tropical with an under layering of shea butter.  Product had a rough and creamy texture to it.  I applied the Nourishing Hair and Body Butter to sectioned and damp hair and twisted.  I covered my hair with my plastic shower cap and then covered that with my regular satin hair cap.

In the morning:

My hair was still slightly damp.  I unraveled each twist and they immediately starting taking shape.  In the process of getting dress, hair became about 90%-95% dry.  While en route to work, I continue to fluff my hair.  

The final results were soft, define curls.

Would I Re-Purchase?

I would, if the price was much lower.  Perhaps, $6.99 to $9.99.  I felt that the product is a good product but other than the shea and mango/tropical fragrance, I felt that the product was comparable to other shelf or on-line butters that you can by in the above-noted price range.

• Nubian Raw Shea Butter Body Wash
• Nubian Coconut & Papaya Body Lotion
• Nubian Coconut & Papaya Body Wash

I must say that this month's Curl Kit was PACKED with high-end, natural products!  Love, love, love this month's kit!  I want to TRY them ALL!  I will be trying the Karen's Beautiful Hydrating creme tonight.

The products smell DELICIOUS!  The water bottle was a suprise -- however, I have several of mine own and probably will use as a give away.

I'm not familiar with the Kandy Kurls line but it definitely lives up to the smell of sweet candy.  Looking forward to trying and both of those products can be found in the Curl Kit on-line store.

Please use the referral coupon code at the top of the page for your first subscription for a 10% discount! Again, I'm looking forward to my October's Curl Kit!

Happy Curls to You!

Curl Keeper

30 ml ounce (Sample) $6.50

Amazon.com sells the 8 fl. ounce of the Curl Keeper for $14.78.  The biggest complaint about this product is that most people do not like the smell and causes the hair to dry hard.  The consistency of the product is watery but does contain the frizz and helps your tresses to clump better instead of giving you that Ramen Noodle look!

However, a large majority of users layer it under their gel and scrunch out the hardness later and the smell dissipates after hair has completely dried. This is one of those products that people either overboard love it or don't like it.  

Product Description

Dryness causes fizziness and out of control hair. Curl keeper controls all frizz and allows you to become the master of gorgeous frizz free curls. Curl keeper is water based which means you can use it every day without product buildup. Your style will last for days as its unique formula re activates with water making curl keeper 100% effective in humid weather conditions.

Ingredients:

DI Water, PVP/VA Copolymer, Propylene Glycol, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Laureth 23, Glycerin, DMDM Hydantoin, Fragrance, Polyquaternium 10.

Directions:

Comb Curl KeeperTM through wet hair from roots to ends for an even application... FOR VERY FRIZZY HAIR, USE ADDITIONAL PRODUCT. The less movement that occurs during the first 15 minutes, the more control you will have over the frizz. Once your hair dries, you can easily soften your look by simply moving your hair around. The more you play with your hair the more volume you will achieve. Some people start appreciating their volume and curls once they have total control over the frizz. The Curl KeeperTM formula re-activates with water, so simply re-wetting frizzy areas with wet hands could get you many fantastic frizz-free days between shampoos

Curl Max Twisty Curly Spray

$5.95 - $6.99 8 ounces

After researching this product, it seems to do best or perform well on 4b to 4c hair textures.  It tends to "dry out" 3b's to 4's" hair texture when doing a "wash n' go" hairstyle.  For those users, it's best to dampen hair, apply Curl Max and then "style" hair.

Product has a great smell, sprays out of bottle well, and makes hair soft and manageable.  This product contains glycerin and when used too much can cause the hair to feel sticky.

This product is not Curly Girl "friendly."

Ingredients:

Water (Agua), VP/ Methacrylamide/Vinyllmidazole Copolymer, Glycerine, Polysorbate 20, Argonia Spinsosa (Argon) Oil, Fragrance (Fragrancia), Disodium EDTA, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Triethanolamine, Phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic Acid, Peg-8 Dimethicone, DMDM Hydantoin, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice

Directions

For daily use. Shampoo hair and towel dry. Spray Lustrasilk Curl Max Twisty Curly Spray evenly from roots to ends. Scrunch hair and air dry or blow dry with a diffuser if necessary.

---

Product Description

Lustrasilk Curl Max Twisty Curly Spray quickly activates spiral curls with no frizz. Curl Max, Twisty Curly Spray is enriched with Argan Oil and is designed to quickly activate spiral curls in naturally curly, wavy or permed hair. This non-sticky, alcohol-free spray produces curls you can count on while the lightweight, anti-frizz formula gives your hair a lasting, glossy shimmer. Let the beauty of your hair shine through with Lustrasilk!

Caviar Curls Velvet Leave-In Detangler

UPDATED:  (August 10, 2013)

$15 for 8 fl. ounces

This item can now be purchased on Etsy.com at http://www.etsy.com/listing/153965324/caviar-curls-velvet-leave-in-detangler.  Shipping is:  $5.75

This product is very close to the texture of Kinky Curly Knot Today.  The product could not be found on the web and it's website is listed as caviarcurls.com which doesn't come up in Google or Bing. 

This creamy herbal conditioner is enriched with botanical extracts and organic ingredients to smooth the cuticles and to remove knots, snags, and tangles for all types of hair.

Ingredients:  Aqueous (water aqua purificada, purified), organic mango extract, organic marshmallow root, organic goji extract, chamomile extract, nettles extract, cetyl alcohol,*behentrimonium methosulfate, citric acid.  **dehydroacetic acid (and) benzyl alcohol, natural fragrance.

**behentriminium methosulfate is "NOT" a sulfate.  It is made from non-genectically modified (g)rapeseed oil. It is a scientifically advanced ingredient.  Considered the mildest hair detangling and thickening ingredient available.

Product has no parabens, glycerin, protein, silicone, or sulfates!

Oyin Hair Dew

2 ounce (mini) $4.00
http://www.oyinhandmade.com/minis/individual/2oz-mini-hair-dew.html

This product gets RAVE reviews from users across the natural hair community.  It is a lotion type of leave-in that goes on smoothly and maintains that same sugary chocolate pudding smell.

Ingredients: purified water, castor oil, olive oil, organic aloe vera gel, behentrimonium methosulfate (emulsifier), coconut oil, olive squalane, optiphen (preservative), cetyl alcohol, fragrance, and love!

Pooka Pure & Simple: Lemon-Aide Hand Exfoliator

4 ounces $10
http://www.pookapureandsimple.com/products/lemonaidhands.asp

Smells too delicious to put in your skin but their motto is:  Pooka products are "something good for your skin to eat!"

Lemon-Aide Hand Exfoliator

This wonderful polish is the perfect treatment to keep hands soft, smooth and young! Also great to leave in the kitchen, makes a great exfoliator and odor eliminator when preparing foods like onions or fish.

Wash your hands then take a scoop of Lemon-Aide and massage hands then rinse and enjoy soft, smooth hands.

Ingredients:  Organic cane sugar, olive oil, lemon essential oil blend and vitamin e

Itiba Papaya Body Lotion

http://www.itibabeauty.com

I liked the tropical and earthy look of the site.  It was inviting and beautifully soothing.  The site even offers to give you a tour of the Island!

An 8 fl ounce bottle of the lotion costs $12.60 to ship to my address cost an additional $13.50 for a total cost of $26.10!  Just no an expense I would incur unless sharing the shipping cost with someone else. 

However, I found another site that sells the product called John Paul Selects $14.00 for 8 ounces and here are the shipping costs:

http://www.johnpaulselects.com/itiba-beauty/papaya-body-lotion.html#

USPS Standard Post	$6.85
USPS Priority Mail	$6.95
UPS Ground	$10.76
UPS 2nd Day Air	$25.74

From their website:

Sweet, green, juicy this is a true prize of the Caribbean! A wonderful, Caribbean fragrance that is sure to satiate your senses!

100% Aloe Vera based. Jojoba, Avocado and Rice Bran oils along with dL Panthenol help to soften and moisturize your skin. A little is all that is required of this lotion. Sinks in quickly and does not leave any greasy after feel!

INGREDIENTS: Aloe Vera Juice, Avocado Oil, Rice Bran Oil, Jojoba Oil, stearic acid, cetearyl alcohol, ceteareth 20, Fragrance, dL Panthenol, preservative

Made in St. Croix, US Virgin Islands


Another successful Curl Kit!  I, of course, liked the Oyin Hair Dew -- would have liked a FULL-SIZE container but it was a nice size sample.

So far, I'm really liking the Caviar Curls Velvet Leave-In Conditioner.  I did leave a posted question on the Curl Kit Face Book Page asking where this product can be purchased.  Will update this post with their response!

I'm in love with the Pooka Lemon-Aide!  I just open the jar to smell it!  Simply divine!  (smiling!)

The Itiba smells like the tropics and is worth the purchase if it can be bought at a cheaper shipping cost.

The Lustrasilk, for me, will be a no go.  Smells nice.  However, I'm a wash n' go wearer and this product will find little use in my regimen since I rarely do twists or braid-outs.  

Thanks for stopping by and reading my Review.  Please, comment and subscribe!

Happy Curls to You!

These were the items and products that were included in the May Curl Kit Box.  I must say that the box, once opened, let out the sweet and natural smells of the Nyah Soap and the Peach Bellini Soy Candle.  Let's take a look at what was in the box!

ORI Essentials Conditioner

http://oriessentials.com/

ORI (pronounced "or-ree") Essentials Cleansing Conditioner was a full-size bottle. In researching this product, I realized that this company was fairly new to the "natural or organic" arena. In fact, the website only had a one-page mission statement about themselves and their product along with a picture of several products that they intended to offer. However, they do have a Tumblr.com and a Facebook page.

Next product,

Yum Yum Candle

(7.5 oz. recycled glass) for $15.99

http://www.yumyumcandle.com/pages/aboutus.htm

Yum Yum Candle, LLC is a home fragrance company rooted in creativity & enjoying life. Our mission is simple.... to create chic, incredibly-scented products that are less harmful to our living environment, our planet and our bodies. Oh yeah... we're sisters too! :-)

FYI:  Soy candles can be used on the skin after they have been burned/melted.  Allow to cool down to a nice warm and apply the soy candle, with fingers, gently to the skin.

Nyah (pronounced "nee-yah," I've been saying "ny-yah!") was introduced to the world as Precious Keepsakes in 2001, as a family-owned business, and then reborn as Nyah, meaning Purpose in 2003.  

When I arrived at her site, I liked it very much!  It was bright, airy, and clean (calming)!
