I heard of Carols Daughter back when the owner Lisa Price had the small shop in Brooklyn. I did not however use her products until recently. When purchasing a product based on reviews that you have read..you take a chance. What appeals to another person may not appeal to you..and even more it might not go well with your unique chemistry! In my opinion that is the case with any prone to the store to smell and test it for yourself. I know that Almond Cookie is one of the most popular Carols Daughter scents.and read rave reviews about it for years prior to purchasing it for myself. I can honestly say that I love the smell of it, but it is not concentrated enough for me.I layer the scent by with the cleansing gel, Shea souffle cream.. and dry oil mist and the smell although nice does not last long on my skin. Some people have said that the Jamaican punch is too strong on the spice content..but I love it for that very reason and it smells good on me.I sometimes use it with the Almond Cookie.On the downside it , along with other signature Carols Daughter scents have been discontinued, so you may have to look for them online (Ebay..Amazon… I love the Reminisce 4 oil tin.. It comes with 1) Goddess Flower, 2)Amandeep-(1 of my personal favorites)3)Roses&Honey, and 4)Amaretto Truffle(yummy)… Other favorite scents are the Orange Ambrosia and Goddess Flower products!
I have yet to try her hair products. Well… excuse me I tried a sample of the Hair Milk (which I got free when I purchased an Almond Cookie set)It smelled great! I will try some of her hair products! I say try the products with an open mind.If something doesn’t work for you return it to store(see store policy first), give it to a friend.. family member that might enjoy it ( that way it isn’t a total waste of money), or put it up for sale on online. (the product that you hate might be one that another person loves .. and they may buy it from you).

Nice post. I study one thing more difficult on different blogs everyday. It is going to all the time be stimulating to read content material from different writers and apply just a little something from their store. I’d favor to use some with the content material on my weblog whether you don’t mind. Natually I’ll give you a hyperlink in your internet blog. Thanks for sharing.Useful info ipad

I’m glad to hear I am not alone in this. I just received an order from Carol’s Daughter and was shocked by the ingredients label. The integrity of the “all natural” brand is shot, and I sent correspondence to the company.

At one time, she represented a God-sent source of education and help for our hair. What happened to “if you can’t eat it, don’t put it on your skin or your hair???”

I am terribly disappointed and intend to check out the Mineral Indulgence products you mention here.

Hello: I use Carol’s daughter product for my entire family and we love them. The healthy hair butter is great for the scalp – my hubby and daughter have eczema and it keeps any ich or irritation under control. It also moisturizes well and has shine. Great for braids, pigtail etc. When I take my daughter’s hair down it stays smooth and soft and ready to ready to restyle. The scent is strong in the container, but smells fresh in the hair. Hair milk is great,I seal it with the hair honey or the balm. Good Luck!

It would be GREAT, Bella, if you could do an interview with Lisa Price. And, perhaps, she can address these comments directly. BTW: I just purchased my very first Carol’s Daughter product: Some of Marguerite’s Magic. Can’t wait to receive it.

I used to LOVE Carol’s Daughter products when they were just a hole in the wall shop in Brooklyn. Back then the products were homemade, all natural, and AFFORDABLE. Once CD got endorsed and moved to Harlem it all ended. When I stayed in London a few years back I couldn’t leave without packing my Almond Cookie shower gel and body butter!

Now I’m in college and off to Madrid for the Spring semester and I WISH I had some natural products to stock up on before I leave… but I have no where to turn. No student in their right mind should be spending more on body and hair products (that aren’t even natural) than they do on souvenirs. If anyone can recommend a brand please let me know!!!

Hey Lala, according to FTC rules and regulations, bloggers must disclose if they are paid or sponsored for anything. My disclosure page is right up there at the top. I have never been paid by Carol’s Daughter to endorse or feature their products. If I did, I would disclose that because that is what I do as a professional.

I like the brand – I always have – and I’ve reviewed Carol’s Daughter products on this blog since 2006. Most of my reviews here are positive because I don’t have the energy or desire to write negative posts bashing products or entrepreneurs. I suppose that could come across as “gushing on and on” to some, but I personally have always prided myself on honesty and positivity. And I will continue to do so.

I had an amazing experience during NYFW and decided to share it with my readers. So sorry you read that and came up with the conclusions that you apparently have.
