 And welcome back to my channel. Thanks so much for tuning in for another video if you're new welcome And don't forget to subscribe if you're already subscribed welcome back so for today's video I'm going to be sharing with you all of my product empties and somewhat empties for 2018 This is going to be a showcase of all the products I have used over the course of this year products that I purchased that I like so I'm going to share with you What I liked about the product while I purchased a product and I'll also be sharing with you if I didn't too much care For the product and why I did too much care for the product and at the end of the video I'm going to finish it up with my favorite haircare company that topped my list for 2018 and Products that are going to be a definite that will be carrying over until 2019 So I have a lot of stuff and I'm going to try to work this quickly But we're just going to jump right into it because there is a lot Okay, so this is not going to be in any particular order I'm just going to start pulling products out and just going through them very briefly So here we go. Okay, so the first thing I have here is from the Taliyah Wajid I think I said that right. Taliyah Wajid Curly Curl Cream So I got this product because I've heard a lot of talk about it as far as the curl definition that it gives So I gave it a try and this is a product I can say is really worth the money It did not leave any residue on my hair no flakes at all It is a heavy type of a curl cream. This curl cream gave crazy definition So it does say extreme curl definition no build-up or frizz and I will say the product claims the truth So I really like this product. So next we have the Camille Rose Naturals This is the Almond Jai Twisting Butter I've used this product a couple times and I really liked it. It is pretty thick So I got this product because I love to do flat twists on my hairline And this gives really great definition once it dries and it smells really good leaves your hair smelling really good So I had no problems with this product at all It is a product that I really enjoyed for 2018. This was actually my first time trying it this year So if you're looking for a product that gives you a really great twist down and braid out or just a flat twist in general I would say that this Almond Jai Twisting Butter is definitely one that you want to try Okay, so this is another one that I really liked and for whatever reason they stopped selling in Walmart But it's the Daily Defense and I'm a big fan of all Daily Defense products They are very inexpensive and you get a lot for the money and this product also gives you a lot of slip as well So that's another reason why I like this product because of the slip and it just feels really good It makes your hair really really soft. It's sulfate free I'm pretty sure it has parabens or whatever, but it's sulfate free But it's a really great conditioner if you're just looking for just a cheap inexpensive conditioner This is definitely one that is a go-to and I wish I could get it elsewhere Because I would still buy it if I could but they're hard to find or they just stop selling them But I think the dollar store may still have them I don't know but definitely on Daily Defense has some really great Conditioners and shampoos if you're just looking to get a lot of product for the money This is definitely a must. Okay. So another conditioner. I have is the tea tree triple threat invigorated conditioner This is from the Giovanni Eco chic eco chic hair care and this is for all hair types This is a really great conditioner because I love the tingling sensation that it leaves on my scalp very moisturizing It's very hydrating. It has a lot of great slips So this is another great conditioner that I would highly recommend as well as well as the shampoo I don't have the shampoo in the box, but the shampoo is really good as well But this is good for all hair types and it has rosemary peppermint eucalyptus Just a really great ingredients if you just want that nice cooling sensation on your scalp really great conditioner So the next product I have here is by my beautiful. This is from their spiruline. This is the leave-in detangling conditioner And this product is just about gone when I first tried this product. I did not like it It just did not seem to do well on my hair, but I gave it another try Some months later. I gave it a try in for whatever reason. It just really likes my hair now I don't know But it has shea butter honey coconut oil Camomile and sage. It's just a really great detangling conditioner It does have slip in it now that I've noticed on my hair has a really great slip and it does detangle my hair It's very conditioning very nourishing And it's pretty good for all hair types to be quite honest, and there's no sulfates with this product There's no parabens. So this is a really great detangling product. I would highly recommend this So another great product I have grown to love is from TJN. This is their rosewater curl refresher And this product is just about gone as well and I haven't even had it that long So this works really great on my hair It definitely softens and conditions my hair really well, and it just prepares my hair for my styles It also has green tea in it and it definitely leaves my hair shiny and it just makes my curls feel really good It's just very conditioned. So this is another product. I would highly recommend as well so another leafy conditioner that I pulled out of the box is from the Moisture miracle African pride moisture miracle This is the coconut milk and honey hydrate and shine leafy conditioner this product You have to shake to mix up the ingredients and this is what it looks like I don't know if I have reviewed this product before, but this is what it looks like And I have used a great deal of this product. It's definitely at the very bottom there To be quite honest. I did not like this product now while I still use it I don't know but because I don't know this product does not mix well with other products Especially like gels and can do other conditioners It definitely does not mix well and it would always leave white residue on my hair So just as a standalone it feels good just by itself But if you have any other product in your hair, it will definitely leave some residue. So it's okay, but I Don't know. I just didn't really care for it. So I will not be repurchased in this product Okay, so next we have the coconut co-wash from as I am. This is definitely a staple I have shown this product probably numerous times in different videos This is a favorite among the natural hair community. This is a cleansing product So it does help to course cleanse my hair condition my hair keep my hair bite nice and moisturize And it also serves as a great Pre-poo for me because I like to detangle my hair before shampooing or if I don't do a shampoo at all I'll use this product and I mean it just leaves my hair feeling really good Or if I don't do a shampoo it just makes the rest of my wash day and my styling just that much easier So this is definitely a staple highly recommend this product onto the cheaper side of products this I got from the dollar store This is the VO five five vitamin formula This one has vitamin E vitamin H vitamin C vitamin B five vitamin vitamin B three But if you're looking for a very moisturizing conditioner just in expense of the very cheap other than the daily defense I would highly recommend this from VO five strawberries and cream. They're moisturizing Conditioner and it's very moisturizing and it's very conditioning and it has great great slip Okay, so next is from Jane Carter solutions. This is their revitalizing leave-in conditioner And I am actually out of this product completely. I mean it is dry What I like about this product is that it does not disturb my curls It does not disturb my hairstyles when I want to refresh my hair I'll just bridge this in my hair and it just livens the curls and reactivates to products but it does not wait out my curls or Straighten out my curls to wear, you know, I lost a lot of my definition. It smells absolutely amazing It smells like flowers like a flower arrangement. It smells so good. So it is a detangler It's also a heat protectant. So I really do love this product and I do highly recommend this one as well So for my hair growth products I have from natural sisters. This is their mega growth elixir I have shown this product numerous times. I think I've seen it enough in my videos But this is definitely a go-to oil that I really enjoy it has all natural ingredients in here that stimulate and promote hair growth but this product has 34 natural ingredients and 15 organic herbs and you can see all the herbs that were left over in the bottle once I used it all This is a really great scalp and hair oil. It's very lightweight and it's also very absorbent So this is an oil that will always be a go-to for me. So from texture ID and I have done a video on this before This is their three times moisture cream conditioner plus honey for all hair types and this one is almost gone But then a video on some of the products in this line. It's a pretty decent conditioner It is very moisturizing three times the moisture It was moisturizing is all I can say it was so it was an okay product I would use this if I'm just trying to detangle my hair before a shampoo Other than that it's not one that really was I don't know. I don't know I just I just wouldn't buy this product again. It was okay while I had it, but Yeah Another product from Eden body another product from Eden body works is their almond marshmallow. This is the hydration serum And I'm completely out of this but this is their hydration serum and this is definitely a go-to for me Especially in the summertime when I'm doing wash and goes what I like about this product is the slip that it has It definitely has amazing slip is very hydrating on my hair very moisturizing Very lightweight and gives my hair a lot of great shine and definition This is one I would recommend as well if you're one to do a really great wash and go So the next product is from natural sisters. This is their tea tree and rosemary treatment This is a really great product and this product is for stimulating hair growth. I've used it pretty much all up Let's sit right there. So I have definitely gone through this jar This was just a small size, but they do have it in a bigger jar So this product says that it prevents dandruff hydrates thirsty hair stimulates hair growth And it's very nourishing just made my scalp and my hair just feels so good It smells amazing when you open it up. It just opens up your your nose and your senses. It just it's just very invigorating Gosh just smells so good And then I'm stopped up right now So that's why I'm sniffing it because I'm smelling the peppermint and the in the tea tree That's just opening my nose up Like a menthol, but this is an amazing product So I highly recommend from natural sisters their tea tree rosemary treatment So another great product that I really love what I want a great protein treatment is from the myel organics Bob a suit and mint deep conditioner This is for dry damaged hair and it's a protein and moisture replenisher And this product is good for all hair types And I have gone through several of these jars and this is one of them So this protein treatment is definitely a staple It's also very stimulating on your scalp and just gives a really nice tingling sensation and feel on your scalp So this is a really really great product and deep conditioner So definitely check it out my yellow again. It's once again their Bob a suit Bob a suit mint deep conditioner Another great product that I have in my stash here is from TJ in this is their honey miracle hair mask This is a really great deep conditioner definitely leaves your hair extremely more straws and soft and conditioned And it's just an overall really great deep conditioner if you're looking for one This is definitely it and this product has raw honey and olive wool in it This is definitely one I would highly recommend if you have low porosity hair. So from Kiki Curly not today This is another product. I felt also that was hyped up. This is their natural leave-in detangler This particular product leaves all kinds of residue in my hair It doesn't matter if it's just this product alone in my hair or other products It always leaves residue this product would just not penetrate in my hair very well I don't know why but yeah, I won't be buying this again. Alright, so that completes that part of the video So now we're going to talk very quickly very briefly about products that I really like and that will carry over into 2019 and these are products not only that I like but these are products that I would definitely repurchase again So first up I have from the as I am line This is the new line that they had released which is their dry itchy scalp care This is the tea tree leave-in conditioner and the co-wash that they have So I have come to love both of these products for a couple reasons one because the product claims are true So if you have dry itchy scalp my scalp in the middle definitely is always itching It helps and it alleviates that itch and that dryness and leaves your hair very soft very moisturized And just a really great feeling on your hair just overall and on your scalp overall So the product claims to me personally are true with these two products I will be repurchasing once they are completely empty So yes, these are going to be my carryovers for 2019 that will stay in my natural hair stash another product That will remain in my natural hair stash for 2019 is from the wet line extreme This has become a very popular hair gel and very inexpensive hair gel compared to the equal styler gel I will say that the hold on this gel is definitely a more Firmer hold than what you would get with the equal styler gel I probably won't be going back to the equal styler gel anytime soon after using this product because this is so Moisturizing and it has a really great hold without a very hard crunch and all like I didn't really get a hard crunch with this product It gives you hole, but it's not like a crunchy hole to me at least to my hair. It's not a crunchy hole so it's still soft and It has aloe vera in it It doesn't have any alcohol and it does not leave residue in your hair Which it does stay on here. So this is a really really great gel compared to equal styler gel So this will be carrying over into 2019 So the next product that will be carrying over to 2019, which are my favorite products is all from the tgin line So from their leave-in conditioner to their buttercream to their hair mask To their deep conditioners Yeah, this entire line both collections all of their products are so moisturizing so hydrating Before when you put it in your hair after you put it in your hair days after you've used their products It just leaves your hair very very conditioned and very very nourished So all as a fan none of their products have done my hair wrong. They always get my hair right every time Zero complaints about this brand and this company So I will forever be a fan of tgin and their products will always be in my natural hair stash Another great product that will probably ultimately take the place of all shampoos that I've ever purchased before Would be from the shangren valley soap and sal company. This is their air Vedic Air Vedic herb shampoo for strong healthy silky hair This has got to be the most moisturizing shampoo bar. I have ever used actually This is the only shampoo bar I've ever used and it is the most Moisturizing it is the most cleansing and conditioning nourishing shampoo bar and This is just a trial size of this and I mean I can get tons of uses out of this product probably more so than just a regular Bottled shampoo this particular shampoo bar does promote hair growth all of the ingredients that are in this shampoo bar promote Healthy hair growth. So Unstronger hair as well. So definitely will remain in my natural hair stash for 2019 another carryover product for 2019 is going to be from the aphage curlipic texture treatment, which I am getting to The bottom of this. This is an amazing product. This is a protein treatment product and This product improves the elasticity in your hair. It repairs Damaged curls, curls and waves, especially if you have color treated hair But I use this at least once a week when I want that extra curl definition when I want my curls to pop and also to Repair any damage to my hair just gives my curls just that extra boost of curl definition without me really having to put any Product in my hair. So this will forever forever forever remain in my natural hair stash So that completes all of my products for 2018. So to end 2018 I'm just gonna end it by just letting you know who my favorite natural hair company is drum roll Okay, that was a horrible drum roll. So my favorite natural hair company for 2018 is TGIN TGIN hands down is definitely my favorite natural hair company for 2018 going into 2019. They're just an amazing company.
