Hello everyone!

Exciting news, SHEA MOISTURE IS NOW BEING SOLD IN WALMART IN CANADA! This is not a drill, this is real life! Back in February, I notified my snapchat fam (if you don't have me on snapchat, go ahead and add me: heyitscandicia) that I saw two products from Shea Moisture on a random shelf in the hair section of my local Walmart. Now, mind you, I was on pain medication from my wisdom teeth removal, so I thought I saw things. A few weeks later, I saw an influencer by the name of samanthajaneyt on Instagram at a meeting for Shea Moisture Canada. I kid you not, I felt like my heart stopped and I was about to pass out. I was overwhelmed with joy and shared that joy with my Instagram family (Follow me: www.instagram.com/heyitscandicia). A few days after the announcement, I went to my local Walmart and saw the beautiful display of Shea Moisture products. I went a little crazy and bought way more than I should have, but it was so worth it.

Shea Moisture Manuka Honey and Mafura Oil Review:

Hello everyone!

This is my first ever Lifestyle Post (yippee!). I have had a burning desire to eat and live healthy lately. After speaking with my personal trainer boyfriend (www.instagram.com/jmac.fitness), he thought that a great way to kick-start this new chapter of my life was to do a couple workout with him. At first, I thought it was a great idea, and it shouldn't be too challenging for me but LET ME TELL YOU, it was no joke. I was definitely sore for at least three days after that workout. Although muscle soreness is NEVER fun at the moment, it definitely proved to me that I did something great for my body.

I'm not going to lie to you guys, having the motivation to workout on your own is tough. We have so many things to do in a day that working out takes the last place. I mean, who wants to wear stretchy clothing, sweat A LOT and be sore for days on end? If you genuinely want to start working out but can't find the motivation to do so, I definitely recommend working out with a buddy. Someone that will hold you accountable, push you to do your best and will have fun and be silly when needed. I loved working out with my significant other because it not only forced me to do better, but the workout routine was only successful if both of us worked hard. If I didn't perform at 100%, it limited him to work out at 100%. Try this (workout routine) with someone in the gym, and I guarantee, you will be sore!

When I first used the Mixed Chicks Curl Sculptor, I swore I heard angels singing. This product was perfect for my curls. Styling 2C/3A curls can be challenging at times because adding too much product, or a heavy, rich cream can weigh down the curls. This product has a watery consistency which, contrary to popular belief does moisturize the hair efficiently and gives fantastic definition! Many people think that the thicker the consistency of their styling products, the more moisture and shine they will receive. I would like to challenge that notion with the vice versa. Don’t get me wrong, I love a good cream styler from time to time, however, having thick creams can sometimes impede the penetration of the product to the hair shaft because of the richness. Having a styling product that is water like can penetrate the hair shaft and the deliver the much-needed moisture that the hair needs. Personally, my curls love water like leave-in like the curl sculptor, because not only are my curls shinier, they clump together more readily, and my definition is noticeable as soon as I apply the product. After scrunching my hair, I can get more definition, and I know for a fact that my wash-n-go will be straight fire!

Now, back to the Curl Sculptor. This product also smells lovely and has my hair defined for more than three days! Yes, I said it, three days! I was so shocked at how defined my hair was on day four which RARELY happens to me. I would recommend anyone with any curl pattern to try out this product. Don’t shy away from this product if the consistency is your concern. I am sure that many people will love this product.
