May 2017 What Did You Buy This Week?

My sweet loved one gave me $40 for Mother's Day. I wasn't expecting it!

So, Monday I purchased The Mane Choice biotin gel and the KJV Beautiful Word bible from the Half Price Bookstore. I'm in love with both!
Oh so you didn't get it from Amazon after all. How do you like the bible up close and personal by the way @YvetteWithJoy ? I read a few reviews that said the pages are very thin, is this true in your opinion?

Yup. I paid $23 at Half Price. Much less expensive.

And yes: The pages are very thin. They bend and crease too easily. They will easily tear, I'm sure.

I got it anyway because every time I sat and just flipped through it, I was so blessed by the scriptures they chose to illustrate. And, it's just the Word. No commentary, etc. Just spending time with His Word.

Black Curl Band w/40% off code HAPPYBDAY. Code is valid on black and leopard curl bands, through the end off May. In honor, of the owner's B-Day on the 19th.
 
I'm on my last jar of my holy grail SM's hipo masque. :cry3:

I must begin the work of finding the replacement. I went looking at Etsy, and while there I purchased:

From NaturelleGrow's Etsy store (black female -owned):
Banana Coconut Pre-poo (she was kind enough to make a sample available :smile:) to see if it can replace the SM hipo masque
Unrelated to the masque, but toward replacing the face, lotion, and body Shea Moisture products in my rotation:

From anjeupendo's Etsy store (black female -owned):

  1. Pure Luv Coconut Soap ("Vegan Soap. Homemade. Handcrafted. Hair and Body Soap. Beauty Bar. Hexane Free.")
  2. This Rite Here!! Hair & Body Cream SAMPLE ("Naturally Scented Cream. Great for All Skin and Hair Types.")
  3. WHAT!??! Under Eye Roll-On ("Organic Eye Serum. Handcrafted. Rare Ingredients.")
  4. Brighter Days!! Organic Olive Oil and Organic Coconut Oil Soap Enhanced with Lemons
  5. Power WOWww!! Non Sodium Bicarbonate Deodorant. ("Handcrafted.")
From TheHealingPlaceFarm's Etsy store (not black-owned):
Puffy Eye and Circle Erase Roller ("Natural; Aloe Vera; Lavender, Helichrysum Essential Oils; Caffeine Crystals; Carrot Seed Oil")​
 
My Curl Squad:
1 set of 30, all-black, husky rollers/curlers.

I still don't feel I have my ends-care game down. If they get tattered/damaged, that's the opposite of length retention. Maybe if I get a good roller-setting regimen down, my ends will be more preserved.

I'm going to practice with these for a month or so, compare the outcome to flexirod setting, and go from there. :smile:

This Sally's product (per LHCF-recommendation because my hand-held dryer isn't working well with my beloved HairFlair attachment):
