Ok, so anyone that REALLY knows me, knows that I have a pretty bad QVC addiction. Thankfully, due to the economy, my QVC habit has been placed in check. But I have to thank QVC for introducing me to the OjonĀ® Restorative Hair Treatment back in 2003.
Let me take you back. I'm watching QVC and this georgeous couple appears touting the effects of the rare oil of the tropical OjonĀ® tree known only to the Tawira indians who are referred to as "the people of beautiful hair (TM). Its a husband and wife team and the wife's hair looked like shiny, black silk. What sold me, of course, was when they showed the effects of the hair treatment on African American hair (after one use). I couldn't dial fast enough.
Since then, I have been a faithful devotee, scooping the rare concotion into my hand, emulsifying it into an oil and then rubbing it onto my hair. Its a fantastic pre-shampoo treatment and sometimes I apply it to tame flyaways.
Now the beautiful folks over at Ojon are moving into the bath and body category with their new line Tribal Indulgences Batana. Tribal Indulgences Batana. According to WWD, Tribal Indulgences Batana Shower Gel, a paraben-free, sulfate-free body cleanser, includes a blend of Ojon, Swa+, Buriti, Acai and copaiba oils, and retails for $28 for 10.1 oz. Tribal Indulgences Batana Body Cream, $40 for 5.9 oz., combines Ojon and Buriti oils and Brazilian Murumuru and shea butter to moisturize skin, and copaiba and Acai oils to provide antioxidant protection. Buriti oil, extracted from the nut of the Buriti palm, is highly concentrated in beta-carotene; copaiba, Acai and Swa+ oils are naturally rich in essential fatty acids omega-3, -6 and -9, and are said to moisturize skin and infuse it with essential lipids.
You can find the line at Sephora in April or you can get it now at (where else) QVC.com!
