Product Review: Alikay Naturals

Hey Naturalista’s!! I was sent two products from the Alikay Natural’s line to review. I was not paid for this review. These are my own personal opinions.

I was sent the Lemon Grass Leave in and the Crème Brulee Curling Custard

Lemongrass Leave in Conditioner $13.00 USD

Locks moisture in your hair without weighing it down or causing product build up. Infused with essential oils to smooth your hair shaft and keeps it moisturized. The lemon zest scent is yummy and refreshing. Hair will feel soft and ready to be styled pretty! This Product is 100% Natural and 90% Organic

Directions: After washing hair, apply to wet hair by spraying it on. Be sure each strand is saturated, to ensure full protection. Style as usual.

Key Ingredients: Water, Glycerin, Almond Oil, Wheat Germ Protein, Silk Amino Acids, Lemongrass Extract, Behentrimonium Methosulfate(Rapaseed oil) , Herbal and Botanical Blend No Petroleum, No Mineral Oil , No Alcohol, No Paraben, No Sulfate, No Silicones

My Thoughts: This is a great light leave in conditioner. I am usually not a fan of the spray conditioners but this changed my mind. It was very light and moisturizing. My hair felt very soft and moisturized after use.

Crème Brulee Curling Custard

Curls Curls Galore!!! What can be sweeter than defining your curls naturally? While also moisturizing your hair. This pineapple scented natural based custard helps to elongate and smooth your curls for that polished curly look you desire, without leaving your hair dry, greasy, sticky or crunchy. Great for all hair types.

Directions: Apply to freshly washed hair in or out the shower. Wash hair and shake dry, do not remove all water. Spray on Lemongrass Leave In Conditioner generously over hair. Apply custard row by row in a shingling method starting at the back and working to front. Rake fingers through each row to evenly distribute product. When finishing shake hair to remove excess. To dry simply let air dry or use diffuser.

Disclaimer: This product is intended to define and enhance your natural curl pattern. This product will NOT create curls that are not pre-existing.

My Thoughts:

I used this for a twist and curl. It left my hair very soft! I had a soft hold as well. My hair was not as defined as I would have liked but it was super pretty!! 🙂

Enjoy Your Weekend!!
