My Review:
Smell - Tropical Coconut Scent Consistency - Oil Slip - N/A
I used this product a fresh wash-n-go and my hair was so shiny all day. I wouldn't use it on my own hair everyday, but if you are rocking a straight hairstyle, this might be a nice addition to your hair stash. 3 out of 5 combs!

My Review:
Smell - Tropical Coconut Scent Consistency - Very Thick Slip - MediumThis is my favourite product of the bunch by far. If you have a thicker very dense hair, this product may be your answer to the perfect twist-out or wash-n-go. I would apply this product and detangle with great ease. Not to mention that it made my curls so defined. I absolutely love this product!
5 out of 5 combs.

My Review:
Smell - Tropical Coconut Scent Consistency - Thick Cream Slip - Average Slip
This particular product doubles as a leave-in conditioner and a blow drying lotion. I will just be reviewing this product as a leave-in conditioner in this post. It’s suitable for relaxed and natural hair and it has a really pleasant scent, very fresh and almost fruity but not overpowering. I credit this leave-in conditioner for my second and third day curls. It really revived my curls and kept my hair moisturised throughout the day. I think I’m going to hold on to this product for a while. Stay tuned to my review of this product as a blow drying lotion. Straight hair! 4 combs out of 5.

My Review:
Smell - Tropical Coconut Scent Consistency - Thick Oil Slip - Excellent Slip
If I could only choose one product to purchase from the entire line, it would be this one for it's triple punch. You could even add it to your favourite moisturiser in order to add slip and general luxuriousness. My hair was so soft after using this as a hot oil treatment. You don't need a lot as it's a quality product. 5 combs out of 5.
