Hair Growth and Hair Care Tips
I like to use this for wash days on my curls. I use it after I put in leave in conditioner. It helps keep my curls really defined throughout the day, and doesn’t weigh down too much on my curls.
Curl Defining Cream
This has been my go-to oil that I use to keep my hair soft and use to prevent split ends. I wrap my hair up in two French braids at night, and I like to put a little bit of this oil on the tips of the braids to prevent tangles on the end. The best pa...
Moroccanoil
I’ve been taking this consistently everyday this past month to help with hair growth. I can definitely say that I’m already starting to notice a small difference in hair length! And with my nail growth too. I put 3 scoops of msm powder in my smoothie...
Doctor's Best MSM Powder with OptiMSM, 8.8 oz (250 g)
I use this oil to massage my scalp, for hot oil treatments. Hot oil treatments can hydrate and nourish the hair. One hot oil treatment at least once every two weeks.
Sky Organics Castor Oil - USDA Organic Hair & Skin Oil 16oz
Scrunchies are better for people who have curly hair. Regular hairbands can pull too tight on the hair which can cause split ends. I also like using scrunchies because it prevents an indent in my hair when I wrap it up in a Pinneaple at night.
Silk Scrunchies
I use this mask at least 2 to 3 times a month. It helps with hydrating my hair and every time I use it, my curls are extremely defined. Whenever I use it, I wrap it in a plastic bag, keep it in for at least 30 minutes, and for last 10 minutes I use a...

Body and Face Care
Ditch tailored products used to help with dark eye circles and start using aquaphor under your eyes instead. I’ve tried many under eye creams, but Aquaphor makes my skin look hydrated and lively under my eyes. Highly recommend adding a little drop un...
Aquaphor Healing Ointment Skin Protectant 7oz
I have braces so my lips can easily become dry. It works pretty well to keep them moisturized throughout the day. I usually apply it at least 2-3 times each day
Squalane + Amino Acids Lip Balm
This leaves my skin so smooth and shiny throughout the day. After I shower I’ll put on my body lotion, and then I’ll put this oil on. Since body lotion can help with hydrating the skin, it’s important that you apply the lotion before the oil. The oil...
Moisturizes & Softens Cocoa Butter Body Oil
Ive always had issues with acne, and this helps prevent new pimples from forming and can help with acne scars. I apply once in the morning, and then at night before bed. You’ll want to apply this after your acne/face wash.
Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% Oil Control Serum
Helps with fading scars. I like to wear them at night before bed on my acne scars. If I’m consistent enough, I’ll notice a difference and the appearance of my scars within a few days of using them.
Silicone Scar Sheets
When I notice a lot of acne breakouts I like to use this on my face. I actually use it more often than what’s recommended whenever I have those breakouts as it helps to get rid of them faster. I use it with apple cider vinegar.
Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay 16 Oz
I think this is a good recommendation for both hair and skin, as the satin/silk can prevent friction on the skin and hair. Make sure to wash your pillow case at least once a week to prevent breakouts. I also like to has this on to prevent frizz with ...
