@hannah - > I use shea butter daily. I swear by it. I have eczema and it keeps the patches down considerably. It's really thick, almost solid, so be patient with it.:-)

hello! This group sound so fun and lighthearted! Has anyone ever tried ojon hair restorative treatment? It's a thick nut oil used by the Miskito indians in Ecuador. I love it! It's not to heavy if you use just a little bit, its good for taming frizz and it smells good too. :)

@rebecca - > I haven't tried it. I googled it and found a listing at Sephora that said it was "100% Ojon palm nut oil." What's the difference between Ojan palm nut oil and regular palm nut oil?

I'm not sure what the difference is to be honest with you. Maybe it's just a different breed of palm nut. Well, it smells fabulous. There are other ingredients in it too, like shea butter, linalool and citric acid, so it's actually not 100% ojon oil, but it's soooo good. A little pricey but worth a try.

Hello everyone! I use Sheaterra Organics liquid african black soap. I love this stuff. I also use shea butter on my face. I find myself alternating between shea butter and coconut oil. I love coconut oil, it is divine.

I love makeup, if anyone knows of natural makeup brand, please let me know so that I can check it out. I guess that's it. :)

Hey guys, hope you don't mind a guy joining, its just I love skin care etc. I'm currently using Dr Alkaitis (which is raw) organic apoteke, and the organic pharmacy. Do any of you guys use these brands?

Hey guys, I went 99% raw on december 28th and i was wonder if any of you could give me advice, fyi's on my skin. When did everyones skin start to change get less breakouts and overall brighten? I was told that my eyes are starting to look brighter but my skin is still breaking out. I might be jumping the guy here because my body is still detoxing i guess but just though i'd ask.

Also, when did you start to lose weight? my scale broke so i haven't weight myself yet but i don't feel like i have lost that much weight because my close still fit me. I ca definitely feel my body changing but nothing significant yet...

Hey aja, my skin started to look really great after about a month. As for weight loss, it's hard to say because it also depends on what other things, like exercise, you're doing.

Last week, I noticed my size 6 clothes were really baggy...so I went out to try on some size 4s....Wooohooo! Size four and shrinking! I'll bet I'm a size 2 by June.
Losing weight wasn't my intention when I went raw, and after the first 6 months, I thought I'd really stopped losing, but now I'm just inching down to that perfect, healthy weight my body wants to be.

YAY!!!!

Had to share with some people who won't be jealous, but actually be happy for me.
