Prive Extended Texture Clay Herbal Blend ($25 @ Amazon.com) is designed to add volume to men’s hair for long or short hairstyles without adding weight. Prive’s herbal scent and healing nutrients means it works great for her, too.
#2. Beauty Aura Pure Apricot Kernel Oil ($10 @ Amazon.com)
Made from dried kernels from apricot trees, this natural skin moisturizer is ideal for all skin types; safe for skin or hair, this chemical-free formula leaves skin feeling cleansed as it works to reduce wrinkles and brighten your complexion. It’ll leave your skin feeling cleansed and fresh; the downside: you need to put a little elbow grease into washing it off. Also, it sticks to the sides of the tub once dried. Still, you’ll give those annoyances a pass after giving it a test run.
