Nivea A Kiss Of Moisture Lip Balms

Last year I received the Fresh Sugar lip balm from Sephora as their yearly birthday gift. It took me a while to try it out but when I did...I was hooked. At first, I didn't realize how awesome it was. But when I tried it on my lips as a night treatment before bed is when I saw what a treasure it was. The next morning my lips were baby bottom soft! Long story short, I ran out after being absolutely addicted. When I went to repurchase, I was stunned at the price $25.00. For a lip balm! So I had been on a hunt for something similar in quality without having to break the bank. So, I was browsing at Walgreens, and I came across this. Nivea a kiss of moisture lip balms, and I love them. For $3.99 each, I ended up getting the little tin, which they describe as a lip butter, and the tube in the flavors caramel cream kiss, and milk and honey. I can't get enough of these. I put them on through out the day, and as a night treatment. Both have the same affect. They feel so smooth and creamy, and they definitely have healed my chapped lips. They feel almost exactly the same as the Fresh Sugar balms, but at a fraction of the price! These are not the balms that just sit on top of the lips (smackers, carmex, blistex etc). These really penetrate your skin and heal the lips. I suggest trying these out if your in the market for new lip care.

1 Month of the Castor Oil Hair Challenge

Hey everyone!

Friday, March 15th will be my first month doing the 90 day Castor Oil Hair Challenge. So far, I have seen some major changes! I'm starting to see new growth which is thicker, my hair has more shine and is longer. Not to mention that hair has grown on the sides where it was thinning before. I am happy with the results and I can't wait to see what the next 2 months will bring!

As I stated in my last blog (http://lastsliceradio.blogspot.com/2013/02/castor-oil-challenge.html) , i'm using Jamaican Black Castor Oil. I add the Castor Oil to my ends and Scalp about 3-4 times a week. I don't use much because this stuff is really thick and can weigh your hair down. I've heard people complain about the "smokey" smell to it but to be honest with you, I don't smell it much. My friends haven't noticed the smell either so it's bad as some think it is.

If you are interested in doing the 90 Day Castor Oil Challenge, I recommend that you visit my first blog posted back on February 14th. I have nothing bad to say about the challenge so I encourage everyone who is trying to grow thicker and longer hair to do this! Below is a picture of my hair. The edges are thicker than what they have been since I added a relaxer to my hair back in July 2012. Right now my hair is in a "Twisted thingie" (lol) so next month, I will post a March and April picture of the length of my hair :-). If you have any questions, please feel free to leave your question in the comment section below. I do respond ;-)
