I use the one in the bottle. It makes my hair super soft and moisturized. ------------- longhairgrower |

I can agree because I used it when I was natural and it kept my hair moisturized and manageable. I haven't tried it with relaxed hair. ------------- First Goal-Full SL Second Goal- Full APL Final Goal-Any length beyond is all gravy http://public.fotki.com/mercedes826/ |

| The one in the jar now has mineral oil in it. They've modified their ingredients to add it and the jar is now bigger. |

I use the kind in the bottle and it works GREAT on my relaxed hair. When I blow dry it comes out straighter - just don't use too much!

The one is the jar (the creme) is now mineral oil FREE girl! It comes in a smaller jar than the older version. Remember how the old one had two sizes-- one for $8 bucks and another larger one for about $12? The new one is mineral oil free in the $8 smaller sized jar... and the formulas feel exactly the same even with the change!
The one in the bottle (the lotion) has petrolatum in it.
 I didn't realize til I got it home and tried it and it felt like paste. I love ORS olive oil creme!!!! Its my favorite moisturizer!  -------------

I love ORS Olive Oil but did you ladies know that it has petroleum in it ? I was so hurt because I love this stuff. I won't lie, I still use it...but I have started using Organics Leave In Hair Mayo and it works pretty good. I don't think it has any of the three big no-nos in it. Has anyone else used this product?

I finally got my profile to work and now I can talk to you guys! How is everyone? Now I just need to get pictures of my hair on here and I'll be all set! Anyway in response to the post, does anyone here ever use natural extra- virgin olice oil? I hear this is good for the hair. Anyone know how true that is?------------- CHECK OUT MY PHOTOS! http://public.fotki.com/quietladyflash/ - My Fotki Album |

Yes girl, extra virgin olive oil aka 'EVOO' is a brilliant oil for the hair, it's cheap and you use it as a hot oil treatment, add it to conditioners or apply directly to your hair! ------------- http://public.fotki.com/SweetCocoa/ - http://public.fotki.com/SweetCocoa/ |

ITA with Ms Mocha, I use it in everything... conditioners, shampoos, Leave In's... I am an EVOO junkie!!
BTW Ms Mocha...I really like the Organics Hair Mayo. It is nice on the hair and it doesn't seem to have any of the three no-no's (mineral oil, petroleum, or lanolin).  ------------- http://www.TickerFactory.com/">

I have the one on the bottle, it is okay, but I use a small amount because it is oily. I have tried to find the one in the jar, but all that I have seen do contain mineral oil. ------------- |

It IS!!!! It really is.
I didn't even know they had the new formula until one of the forum ladies at another board told me. I didn't believe her b/c I kept seeing the old one everywhere.
 Finally, I found it and so far the only place I've found it is WalMart. My local bss and Walgreens always seem to have the old version. Maybe they are still phasing it in. So, whenever I see it at WalMart, I buy every last jar because they never keep it stocked regularly. -------------

| I thought I was the only one because I have been searching high and low for it and all i ever come up with is the old version, even when I look online. I guess i have to double check WalMart again.. |

I found the jar without the mineral oil at a BSS yesterday . They had the jar of the older version at the front of the shelf. I did some digging and found the new version. ------------- |
