MooGoo appeciation society!

they are testing a new formula for the shampoo at the moment - i'm one of their testers. i wash my hair daily though, so can't comment on the oily thing next day. i love that it is so gentle on my scalp. i'm doing a "blind" test for them, but just from the feel of my hair i can tell which is which - it seems to be more conditioning. i used the new formula yesterday and haven't washed hair this morning (unusual for me) and no greasiness.

i use the msm cream as a moisturiser too - we use it for DD's backside, and i can't be bothered trying to keep different products for different purposes - so the msm does everything lol

The anti aging cream is awesome! Doesn't feel oily at all and no dry skin. MSM cream I use on problem areas

**~clover~** · April 2nd, 2011, 07:54 PM

I stopped using the shampoo

Still use the conditioner though.
My hair was just too oily.

Okay posting on my Moogoo experience so far. I've tried:

- The goats milk soap. Was such a nice chance to normal soap. Didn't irritate my skin and didn't leave it feeling dry. Won't buy it all the time as I found I loved the milkwash so much.

- The Milkwash. OMG! I am in love with it! Where to start? It smells divine!!! I just want to eat it. At first I was a little put off by the fact that it didn't lather like other washes I have used, but that's because the other washes have so much crap in them. I've worked out my own little technique now with mah loofa that gets a decent lather now. DF really likes it too, he also loves the smell. I have found that it is SO gentle on my skin (which is super sensitive) and doesn't leave it dry afterwards. I use it all over, as a body wash and face wash.

- The MSM cream. Love it! I initially used it as an all over cream as my skin gets irritated so easily. It's the FIRST body cream I've EVER been able to use that doesn't leave my skin itchy for a period of time afterwards.

- Full cream Udder Cream. Also love it. Due to the fact that I moisturise 2-3 times a day, I started buying this as it's slightly cheaper, and use the MSM for problem areas. It smells awesome and makes my skin so soft.

I am looking forward to trying the shampoo and conditioner and the cleanser. Maybe the lip balm too. Our health food store is closing down and having a big sale soon so we'll stock up on some more Moogoo then. But yeah, loving my Moogoo.

PZ, I use the lip balm all the time. Under lipstick, when I am getting a cold, and I even don't mind 3 yr old DD using it

I have the shampoo and conditioner. My hair is not particularly oily or dry but I do get a very irritated and itchy scalp. It smells good, but I haven't noticed any improvement in my scalp and my hair doesn't feel terribly clean after using the MooGoo. Am I doing something wrong??

It does make DD2's head smell delicious!

I have used the anti aging cream and full cream moisturiser on my face and hands, MSN cream on bubs bum, the deodorant, milk wash and shampoo and conditioner.

I had to stop using the normal skin oil cleanser as it contains an essential oil that should be avoided when pregnant as it can bring on your period (Cedarwood from memory)

I love their stuff and could never go back to anything else

That's great info FluffNStuff and

to BB!

I was just checking out moogoo again yesterday but DS started crying so I had to leave (buggar) my regular skin care hs run out so time to try the antiaging cream I think. I actually bought the MSM and eczema creams when DS was born but still haven't finished them as I am still using up the Renew cream which I LOVE from Melaluca (sp?) I have dropped my membership with them as it's too expensive so I need to replace everything with other stuff before I run out! Maybe I will start using the moogoo creams 100% of the time. An update on the shampoo, I don't think I'll buy it again, while it's nice enough it's not leaving my hair nice all the time and I have used my old Melaluca shampoo the last 2 times I've washed and it's just so much nicer, (non irritating like moogoo) and it leaves a better results for my hair. But again I need to find another natural shampoo that I'm happy with , think I'll search for an argan oil one... Sorry this hasn't been much of a moogoo appreciation post! lol

i think the "problem" is that, as a society, we're used to using chemical shampoos that have an artificial conditioning factor to them - so what we feel is clean is actually the chemical layer. at first i thought it wasn't cleaning my hair properly for this reason - but the way it felt afterwards, the fact i only need a very small amount of anti frizz crap instead of masses of it, showed me that it was clean. i also find that my hair doesn't feel heavily conditioned but it's healthier in general. the newer formula they have recently been testing is thicker than previous versions, seems to lather a bit more and leaves hair feeling a bit more conditioned

Cool! How does it feel on your lips? I can't stand ones that go all claggy, kwim? Does it smell yummy?

Olive, I'm about to go back to the moogoo shampoo & conditioner when I finish my current oily shampoo & conditioner (which I think has majorly irritated my scalp). I'll let you know how I go in a week or so

- I can't remember how it went last time I used it. I find I need to swap shampoos & conditioners from time to time to get them to work nicely again.
I originally bought the moo goo as ds1 has eczema and I was trying it on his head (we ended up going water only in the bath and on his hair for ages, even now we alternate hair washing with water and the moo goo products with water only in the bath)

Edited. Double post

Olive, I used it for my hair on weekend (normally just use it for kids). My hair is far from oily at moment (normally is after a few days). My hair has more body than normal. Would almost describe it as fluffy. I can normally brush it straight when damp, but it has more volume at moment. Honestly not sure I would use it on my hair long term.

Finally getting back to replying about using the shampoo & conditioner - first day my hair felt like straw. Overall got better as I used it until I put it up wet a couple of days in a row (it had been nice and soft feeling at the top). Now I've worked out that I shampoo the top half well (work into scalp) and condition the ends only (I have shoulder length hair) and I can go 2-3 days between washes.

**~TT40~** · November 24th, 2012, 03:55 PM

thats how i normally shampoo and condition, isnt that how you are 'meant' to?

**leckert** · November 24th, 2012, 05:21 PM

I was always shampooing the whole length

and often conditioning the whole lot too. However I must say my scalp prefers the moo goo stuff - not itchy or sore like it was with my previous stuff
