Hey Youtube World.
It's me, Evelyn.
If you're new to my channel, a #BGBB review stands for Black Girl Beauty Brand, and that's
just me supporting products made by my skinfolk.
So in this video, I will be reviewing three products by Beija Flor Naturals.
VAMOS GENTE!
*generic baile funk beat*
Beija Flor Naturals has Amazonian, Brazilian inspired ingredients.

Anyways!
Oop -- my shoulder's look glowy and it's because of the product I'm finna tell you about!
The Honey Butter Tough Love Scrub moisturizing body exfoliant.
It smells like a gourmet cookie.
Like, you got spiced ginger, cinnamon, oatmeal raisin...
The consistency is rather crumbly and chunky.
Unlike some scrubs that are so combined that it's like already slushy-like in the jar.
I will say that the container was not packed.
Which I was like "hmmmm where my product at?!?"
When it was full, I could still shake it and hear it.
When I get a scrub, I don't wanna hear no shakes, ya dig me!
I want it to be packed!
Ingredients include of course, the sugar, because it is a sugar scrub.
Shea butter, mango butter.
It does have honey it it, so if you are allergic to honey, please child -- don't get this.
What I liked about the sugar scrub, which is the reason I like many scrubs, is because
I can use it on dry skin and wet skin.
Make no mistake - a scrub does not clean your skin, you still gotta cleant yourself.
Sometimes I don't see the point in washing skin that's gonna get rubbed off anyways.
So I like to scrub, rinse it off, and now I got this new skin that I can now wash with
a soap.
I like that I can do it either way.
When I use it after I shower, my skin is very sawf, supple, I don't really need lotion.
Especially if it was in the summer, I wouldn't need any type of shea butter whip.
But you know it's the wintertime so I gotta STAY.
GREASED.
UP.
I would put my munties toward it, if it was packed in there.
As far as the qualidade of the product, I give it 5 out of 5 skin cells -- somebody
said I should do skin cells!!
So that's what we finna do -- 5 out of 5 skin cells.
The proof is in my shoulder.
Look dat glaze on my shoulder blade.
MMMMM!
Next product I received from Beija Flor Naturals is the Amazon Antioxidant Treatment.
Miracle Brazilian butter blend for glowing facial complexion.
It smells very faintly of cocoa butter.
Very faintly though.
Now, you might be looking at the price, and the fact that it is 2 oz., but let me assure
you a little goes a mighty long way.
You only need but a fingernail flick.
This is too much product for your face.
Right here.
And you have 2 oz.??!
That's like, more than enough!
It has "ati" muru muru butter, other butters I don't understand, cupuacu butter.
Now, a little bit of background info on my face skinz.
Since the day I popped out the womb, I have had dry skin.
I didn't even have acne as a teenager.
But I did have eczema just everywhere.
But only in my 20s have I had greasy skin on my face, and I never understood when people
were like "ohhh my skin so greasy".
I'd be like "what?
what does it mean to not have cracked, dry skin."
So only in my 20s do I know what it's like to have greasy skin.
I use this in the daytime.
Your face is just protected and it doesn't feel greasy, but it's so soft.
Cold wind whips against your face, and whereas I would usually get just dryness everywhere,
my face maintains its glow, youfeelwhatimsayin, Youtube!
Especially y'all crazy people who still out here going to football games in the frigidest
of weather.
I am struggling with waking up in the morning with grease everywhere on my face, so I would
not use this at night, just because I've tried it that way and for me and my face, I just
wake up with even more grease than I would wake up with normally.
Especially in my nose area.
This will last me -- I can't even see this running out in a solid year.
Maybe two years.
I give the Amazon Antioxidant Treatment 5 out of 5 skin cells.
Lastly.
Finalmente is a hair product.
Maracuja Milk.
Not "mayruh-koo-juh".
"Maracuja" just means passion fruit.
A refreshing leave-in moisturizer with Brazil nut and passion fruit oils.
First of all, it smells not like I would expect.
Slightly fruit-flavored laundry detergent?
It doesn't smell bad at all, I'm just saying that it doesn't smell like what I thought
it would smell like.
Entyways --
I watched Veepeejay here on the Youtube internets.
I watched her review of this product.
And she said that if you have fine hair or thin hair that this is going to be way too
oily or greasy for your hair.
And I had to test out that notion for myself because I do have fine wispity hair and I
do have thin hair, as in I just don't have mounds and mounds of hair.
I feel like African Export can divide her hair into quadrants, and one quadrant is my
entire head.
If I did my hair in sections, I would literally have to use this much.
Very rich.
Very creamy.
Very oil.
Right now I just put that little spirt on my fingers and my fingers are like, so slick.
The first time I used it as a leave-in conditioner, I used way too much.
Probably the amount I put for one section would be enough for my entire head, but I
just don't do my hair that way.
I don't just apply product to my entire head.
It didn't really have slip for me either, so I was working it in, working it in, and
because it doesn't have slip, I think that means I need to be applying more, when really
my hair was just greased up.
I like my skin to be greased up, not my napps.
For me and my hair, I'm going to give this a 2 out of 5 afro puffs.
Remember I have thin hair, fine hair.
What works for me might not always work for you, okay sis?
That's my review of Beija Flor Naturals.
See you on the internets somewhere.
Até logo!
