View Full Version : Ok, I took the plunge and ordered the MM

I decided to just go with the small sample bottles. I know that I am not getting the most for my money there but I just didn't want to spend a lot incase I don't like them. Also this way if I choose to reorder I can get the three that I like the best.
I also ordered the Diamond Crystal Mist and yes the eyeliner :)

I have also decided to go back to using henna. I had before and gave it up because I was bothered by the fact that it had so sealed up my cuticle that I felt that oils and conditioners I was using were not getting in. But, now after about a year of no henna I notice that my hair tends to get more splits than before. ( I am obsessed with splits)
I also don't like the harshness of the dye on my scalp. Although I do not have a sensitive scalp I think anything that smells and feels like that can't be healthy for me.

I ordered both of the specials they had -- the sample sizes of all shampoos and full sizes of all 3 oils/mists. I'm excited about trying this line! While I'm waiting on my order, I'm trying to use up some of my other zillion products I have at home! :D

Nitsa and Celia, I hope you both love them as much as I do!! Just remember, they are DIFFERENT -- in texture, scent, foamability (there's not much at all!), and results. Be patient, and give them time. My hair has never felt cleaner, better, or more natural. Let us know when they arrive and how you like them!! :D

Good! I bet you two will like them.

Nitsa- do give a full report of the eyeliner! I am wondering when they'll come out with more MM makeup. I hardly ever wear makeup- but it's partly due to the fact that I like natural stuff (and natural makeup is quite pricey- actually ALL makeup is too pricey to me!).

And Celia- people say that the MM does fabulous things to their greys! Like they turn into shimmery silver highlights.

I agree Pixna, I love MM products but they are totally different then most natural s&c. :D

Oh boy, Valerie, that's what I'm hoping for!! :D

Soleil, I'm glad to know you are using (and loving) them, too. We should do a survey to find out all the people who currently are using MM. It would fun to know! Anyone want to start a thread on it?

Maybe on the product review board? And then as people try out MM, they can write in what they think of it after using 1 month, 2 months, 3 months later? And also their hair types.

that would be an excellent resouce, Pixna. good idea.

I will let you know about the eyeliner Cowgal. I don't wear much make-up either and when I do it is usually just a little mascara or a natural shade of eyeshadow. I have been using Ecco Bella products and I like them a lot.

Can't wait to try the shampoos. I like earthy smells so I don't think that will be a problem

Hehe, Nitsa-

I was in Whole Foods last night wandering around... and saw the Ecco Bella make up. They had all these tempting samples to try. So I tried a lil of their foundation. It looked really good. So... I got it. :) I liked the Ecco Bella eyeshadow colors too, but need to cruise around their website some more and pick out the perfect shade. There was a guy working the counter behind all the makeup- I wasn't sure if I should ask his opinion or not! LOL I wonder if he WAS a consultant..! Hah! Now that I think about it.... but at the moment it didn't seem right. Oh well, I am sure I'll be back in there soon. What Ecco Bella or other "natural" makeup do you recommend?

I like Aubrey Silken Earth but I gave up using it because it was loose powder and I was always worried about spilling it.
I have also tried some eyeshadow from Beauty Without Cruelty that was good. I am not sure but if I remember correctly I may of gotten it through vitamin world's web site.
