Imma stop coming up in here 'cause it's making me want to pull it out and use it tomorrow.

If the new one, without the clay, still provides great slip (I mainly use it now to pre-poo and detangle), I will still buy it and maybe just add a bit of my own clay to it for detoxing. B/c I am really not ready to let go of it as my holy grail.
For my prepoo this weekend I'm going to try mixing my holy grail conditioner (GVP conditioning balm) with some clay and compare it to the original purification masque. I gave up on the clay experiments before (b/c I'm not really a mixtress - I prefer to buy ready-made products), but I'm curious now.

The clay is still missing though! I really feel that it was the kaolin clay that made my hair manageable. I could use the mask to cleanse
I am still going to try the new one, but it will never be the same for me at this point.
I am going to have to mix my clay into my conditioners. That's okay, I have secretly missed mixing....
So my speculation was correct; SM did remove the clay from the Purification Masque.
This mess here is why I'm an incorrigible PJ.
Oh well...back to mixing my own stuff.
Using LHCF via smartphone. Can't see mentions.
I already see ACV in the Jakeala which is something Ms. @DoDo mentioned in her post.
Also, this is simple Bentonite instead of Kaolin so I guess that would be another thing.
When I used the sample, of course it didn't 'smell' as good as the SM.
Not sure if what she sent me was the scented or unscented version.
But it did work nicely for me at removing Build Up which is what I was primarily using SM for.
And I wasn't using it for anything else like some of the rest of you.
Have you ever tried Blue Roze Beauty's Cocoa Rose? I never got around to trying it, but i was hopeful that it was a candidate for replacing the Shea Moisture Purification Masque.

Yes, I have.
And no, I wouldn't think so about this. Absolutely nothing like Purification Hair Masque.
It reminds me of: PBN Chocolate Hair Smoothie or SD's Mocha Silk or the other Chocolate SD's DC'er (can't think of the name)?
If you've tried?
But no, BRB is nothing like Purification Hair Masque.
Right now, that Jakeala's Beau Vert is the only thing I can think of off the top of my head *no pun intended* that reminds me of the SM PHM.
I've also tried that BRB conditioner.
BRB DC = thinner version of PBN Cocoa Smoothie.
BRB is rhassoul-based. Rhassoul is a “moisturizing & softening" clay, if that makes sense. IMHO kaolin gives the most slip in clay-based conditioners.
Bentonite has slip when mixed with vinegar; it's best mixed with slippery teas (e.g. marshmallow, slippery elm, burdock root or leaf, chamomile, fenugreek, Irish moss, spiked ginger lily)
I just looked at jakeala's dc on ETSY.
I haven't tried it but this is my speculation from the top ingredients:
It's more of a deep conditioner with some defrizzing & strengthening properties due to the amla, horsetail & green tea. BTMS will soften your hair like OH Hair Dew does.

What About this? I've used it before and really liked it.

Probably should have used it on Dry Hair but didn't. It was very, very nice, but I should have used it differently.

For all you reluctant mixtresses who want the clay factor, BnB has the Australian pink clay. I mix this in any clay for a moisture boost. Haven't done it in a long time though. Maybe its time to get mixing
I LOVE this HHJ!!

Did you happen to look at Jakeala's Beau Vert?
I wanna know from somebody that knows ingredients the pro's & con's ingredient-wise for this being a 'dup'
or did I sum it up by pointing out: a) ACV b)Bentonite?
Where are all the Smart People at!

Did not repurchase, because it made the water in my Steamer Pink/Red and I thought it might ruin it.
However, looking back now, if I would have used it on dry-hair, I probably would have enjoyed it more.
It was very, very nice, but I should have used it differently.
Well excuuuuse me girlie! Lol...could of swore you thanked my post but guess not.@gorgeoushair
No? Which Thread?
If I knew you had a post out there about BnB's Conditioning Hair Masque I wouldn't have been asking this question.....
I have used Butters n Bars Original Conditioning Hair Masque mixed with SD Vanilla Silk on several occasions. I loved it! It has Australian Clay and Rasshoul Clay in it. I do believe if you mix clay with a conditioner, it will give the same or similar results as the Purification Mask. Sad to say that I haven't tried the PM yet and I've got several jars and have had them for a while. I hope they're still some good.
