Product Review: Tré Finé Shea & Mango Ultra Nourishing Hair Creme

Hey Curly Nation!
It's ya girl MusiQ! I know it's been a while since I've done a product review, but I want to talk about a product that is near and dear to me and that product is Shea & Mango Ultra Nourishing Hair Creme from Tré Finé Body Beautiful.

Tré Finé Body Beautiful is a company located in Chesapeake, Va that specializes in hair and skin products and  believes in the idea of a "simply beautiful lifestyle." Founded by Melissa Burnett,
Tré Finé Body Beautiful is a company that believes in infusing natural ingredients into the products, while also promoting a healthy and natural lifestyle from the inside out, a characteristic that definitely makes Tré Finé Body Beautiful stand out among other companies in Beauty and Cosmetics.

I purchased this product at the Embracing Your Beauty Natural Hair Etravaganza May 21, 2011 and have since used it many times and am very pleased with the results. This product has a very light and fluffy whipped texture and has an earthy herbal scent. I like that although it is very light in texture, it is not so light that it can't be used as twisting agent. I absolutely LOVE the ingredients in this butter.  Among all of the ingredients listed, this product has my fab 5 which is Shea Butter, Mango Butter, Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, and Argan Oil just to name a few ingredients (full ingredient list below).

Ingredients: Shea Butter, Mango Butter, Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, Macadamia Nut Oil, Argan Oil, Red Palm Oil, Provitamin B5, Sodium PCA, Fragrance, Wheat, Jojoba, and Honey Enzymes, Marshmallow Root Extract, Tamanu Oil, Leucidal (natural preservative).

The consistency is that of a whipped butter.

Emulsifies into an oil when rubbed into the hands.
Ways I Use This Product
Although this product can be used as a twisting butter, I often use this in conjunction with other styling products especially on my ends when twisting. I also use this product alone to retwist my hair at night after wearing twist out.

One of my most frequent uses of this product is to seal in moisture. I use this product on my shampoo days after using my leave in to seal in moisture and during the week when I need to remoisturize my hair and need a sealant. As much as I love using oils (primarily olive oil) as a part of my moisturizing routine, I've found that much heavier products like pomades and butters work best for my hair and the Shea & Mango Ultra Nourishing Hair Creme has truly become my go-to product for this reason. I truly love this stuff!              

Cost
This product is very affordable. Although it is $10 for a 4oz., it is very rich, so a little goes a long way. I didn't have to use a great deal of product which meant that it took a while for me to actually use it up, which is great.

Will I Repurchase This Product?
Absolutely!! I am a firm believer in using what works and this product works for me, so I will definitely keep it on my list of staples and continue using it. 

What Product(s) Do You Plan to Try from This Company in the Future?
Although I am on a "no buy" policy right now, I still haven't found what I would consider to be my ultimate conditioner, so I plan to try the Honeylicious Hair Conditioner in the future. It caught my eye, so I will be giving that a try. A review of course will definitely be in the works for this one.
