Product Review | Beautiful Textures Leave-In Conditioner

August 11, 2016 Uloaku Enyingwa 3 Comments

I stumbled upon this product while I was out shopping with a friend. I was out of my staple  leave-in conditioner then, but wasn’t really in a hurry to get it soon. Then I saw the beautiful textures leave-in. It was just sitting there looking all flashy and exotic, and I was like “oh, well just because it’s looking all so flashy doesn’t mean it has a lot to offer”. As usual I went straight to the ingredient list before I even read what the product claims to offer.

Ingredients List: aqua, olea europaea fruit oil/olive oil, argania spinosa nut oil/argan oil, glycine soja oil/soybean oil, cocos nucifera oil/coconut oil, butyrospermum parkii fruit/shea butter, mangifera inica seed butter/mango butter, rosmarinus officinalis leaf extract/rosemary extract, aloe barbadensis leaf extract/ aloe vera, dimethicone, panax ginseng root extract/ginseng extract, polyquaternium 37, propylene glycol dicaprylate/dicaprate, polysorbate 20, prolylene glycol, imidazolidinyl urea, phenylhydrogenated vegetable oil, glycerin, DMDM hydantoin, Cetearyl alcohol, ceteareth 20, polysorbate 20, popylene glycol, imidazolidinyl urea, phenyl trimethicone, Cl15985/yellow 6, parfum/fragrance, benzyl benzoate, benzyl salicylate, coumarin, d-dimonene, hezyl cinnamal, lyral, methyl lonone gamma.

And surprisingly I’m down for almost all the ingredients. The first on the list is water, and next 6 ingredients comprises of natural oils and butters. Good enough. I love the addition of good old aloe vera.

Here’s What The Product Claims: Achieve amazing manageability and styling versatility for curly, wavy, kinky-coily or frizzy hair. Get soft defined curls, bodacious bouncy spirals and smooth silky tresses with the intensive moisture-rich formula for mixed textured hair. Get Ultimate shine and curl control. Tangle taming leave-in conditioner helps to

• Unlock tangles
• Deeply moisturize
• Tame frizzies
• Nourish curls with the right blend of natural oils. 

There's no denying that dry, brittle hair stunts your natural hair growth. To help ensure your tresses grow healthy looking, nourish and moisturize them from the inside out with this lightweight formula. Use daily to detangle, tame frizz and stretch your natural curl pattern as desired.

Yeah, I know right? Very lengthy and full of high-end promises.

Well, I've been using it for a while now and it moisturizes my hair, makes it softer and unlocks my tangles to make it easier for combing. I love the fragrance, it has a sweet smell and I’m guessing it’s from the mango butter. It's also good for my hair texture. It wasn't weighed down after application. However, for finer textures, you might want to add a little bit of water during application as was suggested on the bottle.

DRAWBACKS

• It does contain some silicones you might want to avoid.
• I’m also skeptical about the curl definition part. While I might have noticed my curl definition/pattern immediately after application, it was gone once my hair dried.

In my opinion, this is a go-to conditioner if you're looking for a leave-in that detangles, makes your hair softer and moisturizes. The rest of the product claim didn't work for me. I think I'll give it a 4 out of 5.
