Product Review: Blended Beauty/Blended Cutie


**Thanks to Blended Beauty for allowing us to review your products**


Blended Beauty SilkShake
Cost: $19.00 (www.blendedbeauty.com/)
Size: 8 oz
Scent: Sweet & Pleasant (Cake)
Consistency: Lotion

What They Say:
Treat your curls and give them a shake! SilkShake will revive dry and lifeless curls and hydrate while boosting shine, with Rice Bran oil. Perfect for detangling damp curls or for a boost in the morning or anytime of the day, on dry or damp hair. You can never spoil your curls too much!

What I Say:

I used this product on (3) unique hair textures and I can honestly say it is great!  It does an excellent job at detangling and moisturizing (detangling was actually a breeze with this lotion).  It provides great slip, adds an amazing shine to the hair and makes the hair so manageable and soft.  This product is also a winner because it can be used as your leave-in.  It also plays well with other products, who doesn't want that?! Check out results HERE and HERE.

Ingredients:
Aloe Water, Vegetable Glycerine, Capryl Isostearate, Rice Bran oil , Natural Conditioner, Natural Preservative Optiphen, Rosemary Leaf Extract, Soy Protein, Silk Powder

**** I give this product a 5 out of 5 Baby Curls****


Blended Beauty Happy Nappy Styles
Cost: $21.00  (www.blendedbeauty.com/)
Size: 8 oz
Scent: Sweet & Pleasant (Cake)
Consistency: Rich Creamy & Thick

What They Say:
A rich and moisturizing styling cream for kinky curls and dreads, or highly textured hair. Style and define your curls or twist locs, while naturally hydrating. Perfect for finger twisting curls! Create defined curls, with maximum moisture and softness. Dries touchably soft and satiny, not sticky or greasy.

What I Say:

This styling cream is the bomb.com!  It is very moisturizing which is a big deal for us, it also keeps the frizzies at bay like no ones business, lol.  It also provides a nice hold.  I have used this product to twists, cornrow and maintain locs.  The definition after taking down twists is unbelievable and I had the best set of cornrows ever! I was surprised at the outcome after using it to maintain locs, BG "S" locs turned out very neat and soft.  You can go days without re-moisturizing with this product.

Ingredients:
Aloe and Chamomile Water, Rice Bran Oil, Shea Butter, Natural Conditioner, Polysorbate 20, Vegetable Glycerin, Capryl Isostearate, Soy Lecithin,Guar Gum, Natural Preservative Optiphin, Rosemary Leaf Extract, Silk Powder

**** I give this product a 5 out of 5 Baby Curls****


Blended Beauty Down & Out Styles
Cost: $21.00 (www.blendedbeauty.com/)
Size: 8 oz
Scent: Sweet & Pleasant (Cake)
Consistency: Rich Creamy & Thick

What They Say:
A gentle, moisturizing, conditioning and curl defining butter cream. Enriched with shea butter, chamomile and aloe, for smoothing, defrizzing and defining curls. Silk and Beantree create body and shine even on defiant frizzies. Wearing your hair down and out has never been easier!

What I Say:

This product appears to be a lighter version of Happy Nappy Styles.  Although it doesn't provide the hold that HNS provide, it did an excellent job at moisturizing and providing shine to the hair.   The hair was also full of bounce and body....oh and frizz free!  Pictures HERE.

Ingredients:
Aloe and Chamomile Water, Rice Bran Oil, Shea Butter, Natural Conditioner, Vegetable Glycerin, Polysorbate 20, Soy Lecithin, Capryl Isostearate, Guar Gum, Natural Preservative, Rosemary Leaf Extract, Silk Powder

**** I give this product a 4 out of 5 Baby Curls****


Blended Beauty Jelly Cream
Cost: $19.00  (www.blendedbeauty.com/)
Size: 8 oz
Scent: Sweet & Pleasant (Cake)
Consistency: Thick Lotion

What They Say:
A soft hold moisturizing gel lotion that defines and conditions curls, while nourishing the scalp and hair. Smooth and define each curl with natural conditioners. Absolutely no plastics! Only silky and bouncy curls...naturally! Jelly Cream has twice as much hold as the Down & Out creams.

What I Say:

This product certainly defined and conditioned the hair.  It laid down and smooth the hair but didn't provide much hold.  The hair also felt very smooth like "silk" and left the hair frizz free.  I can still feel the product on the hair after re-spritzing with water (I'm not sure how much I like that...). Although it worked well on my niece's hair type, I don't have much use for this product on my daughters' hair type.

Ingredients:
Aloe and Chamomile Water, Shea Butter, Vegetable Glycerin, Rice Bran Oil, Capryl Isostearate, Natural Conditioner, Soy Lecithin, Guar Gum, Natural Preservative Optiphin, Rosemary Leaf Extract, Silk Powder

**** I give this product a 4 out of 5 Baby Curls****
