I’ve mentioned the TreasureTress subscription box a few times on the blog.
TreasureTress is a UK monthly product discovery box for young girls and women with natural, kinky, curly and coily hair.
The box costs £20 a month and you have 3 options:
- Mini-me box – recommended ages 2-9yrs
- Tween box – recommended ages 10-17Yrs
- Qween box – 18+
I’m not currently subscribed but I always keep my eye out for their one-off boxes.
So back in September their Qween box was another Mielle Organics Takeover which I was excited to see as I’m a huge fan of the brand.
You can check out my previous posts Review – Mielle Organics and Treasure Tress September Box – Mielle Organics Takeover
So after eyeing the box for a week, thankfully they decided to make the boxes available as a one-off purchase for £25.
I did the math and this box is worth around £70 which is a MEGA BARGAIN!!!!
I quickly jumped online and ordered 2 boxes (hey I wasn’t about to miss out on a bargain) and soon afterwards they literally sold out!
This box is a Length check takeover with Mielle Organics Mongongo Oil Collection
The Mongongo Collection is the perfect solution for those seeking versatility and the flexibility to achieve a variety of styles within one line.
The Mongongo Oil Collection hydrates, repairs, and protects powered by the benefits of mongongo oil and vitamin E.

I like to use pre-poo treatments to prep my hair for shampoo. This one has a liquid consistency and a lovely minty scent. I divide my hair into four sections, apply the pre-poo treatment directly on the scalp and hair and gently massage. Then I cover my hair with a shower cap for 15 minutes. I personally think this product would be easier to use in a spray bottle rather than a tube.

I tend to heat style my hair just twice a year. I’ve had heat damage in the past so I’m always extra cautious. Anyway my hair was due for a trim and it’s easier for me to do this when my hair is stretched.
So this product has ‘silicones’ and the only time I’m fine with using them is to protect my hair when I’m applying direct heat.
I applied it to my hair in sections and detangled before using my blow dryer. It doesn’t leave my hair feeling sticky or weighed down which is great.
check out the major shrinkage compared to when I blow dry!
Overall I’m pleased with this collection and my hair results.
