Down & Out by Blended Beauty

Hello my curly peeps!! 

This is a review that is so over due, so let's correct that, shall we.  If you follow our Facebook Fan Page: CaramelCurlzNSwirls, then you've heard of me using this product on more than one occasion and how much I love them.

While I have a few favorite products that seemed to work perfectly on my daughter's hair, Down & Out is one of the best products and the results have never disappointed me.   When I say "it is one of the best", it's because Bee Mine Luscious Moisturizer is on the top of the list.


Down and Out Styles is a Leave-In Conditioner Butter, that helps with moisturizing, conditioning and with the definition of my daughter's hair.  I love to use this butter when I style her hair in twists.  


In combination with Curly Cake Shake, our oil mix and gel always gives me the most beautiful results, as well as a lasting hold.

  


Because Down & Out is enriched with ingredients like Shea Butter, Aloe, and Chamomile, her hair is always soft and free of frizz.   Even during our trip to the beach, her hair remained soft and beautiful.  

Down & Out Styles Ingredients: 
Aqua, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Behentrimonium Methosulfate (and) Cetearyl Alcohol, Behentrimonium Methosulfate (and) Cetyl Alcohol (and) Butylene Glycol, Vegetable Glycerin, Polysorbate 20, Methylheptyl Isostearate, Soy Lecithin, Cetyl Esters, Parfum, Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride, Preservative (Phenoxyethanol and Caprylyl Glycol and Sorbic Acid), Rosmarinus Officinalis, Aloe Barbadensis, Chamomilla Recutita.


How I apply Down & Out:

Working in small section is the key.  
  1. Apply Curly Cake Shake to the section you are working and detangle the section using your fingers; 
  2. Apply your favorite oil mix;
  3. Apply Down & Out.
At this point you can start styling your little one's hair however you desire.  You can let it all "down and out" or you can style it in a protective style like I do.


Styling her hair in twists allows me to get more out of a hair style.  When styling her hair in twists, she is able to wear that protective style for a week or two, before I let it all down so that she can wear her hair in a fluffy and soft "Twist Out" for another week.  


In reality, from twists to a twist out style can approximately last a month, as long as we take our time to properly care for her ends and scalp, of course. 


The Curly Cake Shake can be used to maintain the hair as well.  This product will hydrate your thirsty curls while giving them the shine they need.
