♥ Twisted Sista Lychees & Argan Oil

Twisted Sista Lychees & Argan Oil Review


This is another products which was in the massive goodie bag from the #bbloggersxmas event a few weeks ago. First though are wow, this smells amazing. It sort of smells like sweets, it is possible it is actually meant to smells like lychees. It is the kind of smell that you notice even after you're finished using it in your hair, yummy!


I personally hadn't tried Twisted Sista products before, I've seen them and I think I saw that they contain mineral oil and never looked at them again. From quickly researching other reviews showing the ingredient list, I noticed that there is another version of this exact product, containing both Petroleum and Mineral Oil- so my guess is that this is an updated version! Great.

Ingredient Check:
  • Mineral Oil (/)
  • Silicones (√)
  • Parabens (/)

How I've used this product?

Even though it is not a butter, the consistency is quite thick so I did not use it as it says above on the directions. I used this when I plaited my fringe (to make it curly, as in this FOTD) after making it damp by applying Aloe Vera gel in it. It definitely gives great definition, but the only problem I have with it (I'm assuming it's due to the silicones) that I noticed after two days of using it, it created build up in my hair. Now I have a thing for that, I wan't my have to be clean- no build up, no greasiness!



Oh, and I thought I should mentioned that these are my first pictures edited solely on my iPad mini! If you follow me on Instagram (Yolandaas) you would know that I finally purchased my iPad mini roughly a week ago. Anyway the editing I've done using my iPad is: Rounded and cropped the picture, made it sharper, changed temperature, changed contrast and brightness. This saves me so much time instead of having to open photoshop when I'm at home and on my laptop, I just edited around 30 pictures when I was on the bus on the way to work. Anyway, enough on that.

Have you tried this product or this brand?
