What I am Using to Fade Dark Spots and Even Skin Tone on my Face

If you don't have a Walmart near you, and are looking to purchase this product online it is a little more expensive. You may find it more convenient to order online. I typically find it in the body lotion aisle in Walmart. I was extremely frustrated to go in yesterday to replenish my stash only to see an empty shelf. The sales representative insisted that she had never heard of this brand, and they only carry what I was seeing in front of me. I told her that I purchase this product all of the time. The lady argued with me for at least five minutes.

In my mind I was saying, Really Lady? Do you really think I would waste my time arguing with you about this product if I haven't been coming to Walmart to get it for years?

You can imagine her surprise when she finally read the labels on the shelf to discover that they do carry the product, were temporarily out of stock and a shipment was coming in two days.

Ya'll know me.

Mocha Girl One's baby hair was silky straight and fine. As the weeks rolled by, it became wavier until she had a lovely curly fro. I washed it all the time . I brushed it several times a day . I tried snap clips, and moved to velcro barrets when the clips slid out. I bought a different head band for every outfit. Meanwhile her curls continued to wind tighter and tighter. I kept everything in a pretty box, dubbed the hair bin . I was really frustrated at not b...

Trader Joe's Castille Soap Discontinued!

There's some controversy about the use of castille soap as a shampoo. For example, popular YouTuber Kim , of KimmayTube tested the ph of Bronner's Castille Soap and found it to be much higher than the recommended range for hair (between 4 and 5). You can watch her explain her findings. She also did an informative series fraught with good visuals on understanding the effects of ph on hair. That said, I've been using diluted castille soap successfully for YEARS, but I've never tried Bronner's Castille Soap. I had a bottle of Trader Joe's Castille Soap . Turns out Trader Joe's formula includes Aloe Vera --which has an acidic ph---probably bringing down the overall ph of the product--perhaps balancing it for hair. The manufacturer recommends it's use as a shampoo right on the bottle's label. I did not get a chance to personally test the ph of my bottle, because by the time I noticed Aloe as an ingredient of my castille soap, the bottle was empty...
