REVIEW~~Motions Mango Butter

[kitkat3ny]

I bought and tried Motions Mango Butter hair dressing today. It smells really good. A little fruity but not to fruity. It's creamy and I have to say, so far so good. It really does feel good on my hair. My hair feels really soft but it does feel a little oily though, but I'm kinda heavy handed when putting on cream moisturizer.

I'd give this 2 thumps up!

sounds good. is it like Elasta QP Mango Butter. could you list the ingredients please?

 

[kitkat3ny]

I haven't tried Elasta's Mango Butter but here are the ingredients:

Water, Mineral Oil, Glycerin, Cyclomethicone, Peg/PPG-18/18 Dimethicone, Ceteareth-20, Glyceryl Sterate, Dimethicone, Petrolatum, Cetyl Alcohol, Sambucus Nigra, Mangifera Indica, Helianthus Annuus, Cocos Nucifera, Laneth-15, Acrylates/C10-30, Alkyl Acrylate, Crosspolymer, propylene Clycol, Sorbitol, Primula Veris, Peg-100 Stearate, Chomomilla Recuitia, Cetearyl Alcohol, Methylparaben, Propulparaben, Dmom Hydantoin, Triethanolamine,

Hmmm

, I don't know what the heck all this means but above the ingredients it says it has:
Sunflower, elderbery, primrose and chamomile.....however, i see none of this listed above. Perhaps I will check out the Elasta when my tube of this finishes. it does keep your hair soft though, I found for a creme my hair was a little to oily.

I didnt like it at first but I've come to rely on it for keeping my edges nice. It gives me waves when I brush my hair back. If I don't find something I like better I will probably purchase it again.

 

[kitkat3ny]

What did you find that you liked better?

Sambucus Nigra, Mangifera Indica, Helianthus Annuus, Cocos Nucifera,Chomomilla Recuitia is Sunflower, elderbery, primrose and chamomile I moght give this a try

Elasta mango butter (I love this stuff) was a little oily for me too... unless I put it on my hair while it was still wet. Did you try this on wet or dry hair?

 

[brwnskingirl]

I hope it's not like Elasta QP. I hate elasta mango butter.

silly me

...I was thinking this was the elasta mango butter, I havent tried the motions yet. I havent found anything better yet. The elasta product works well but its not outstanding and for the way I use it for smoothing my hair/edges back in ponytails, I can get similar results with other products like oil moisturizers.

 

[kitkat3ny]

No, I haven't tried it on wet hair yet, I think i'll do this tomorrow morning after I wash my hair.

 

[antrunette]

Is this like a leave in conditioner or is it a hair dressing?

 

[kitkat3ny]

I decided yesterday after washing my hair not to use my salerm21 and instead use the motions mango butter, didn't like it at all. I think I prefer to use this on dry hair only. My hair wasn't silky at all.

 

[simplycee]

You scared me away when you posted the ingredients I saw it had mineral oil in it. Thanks for the review though!

I like the motions mango butter too. Only on dry hair though. The QP mango butter is better for my edges when used with water.
